4/6/25 [REVERTING LITE COLLECTIONS FROM ACE SP TO NO ACE] Part 1

*After testing out CSLA LITE Collection with the CSLA SP Campaigns (with the recent update), I've found that even ACE Singleplayer causes missions to break, in particular stealth-kill tracking missions. So it's not as "100%" compatible as I thought. With that in mind, I've removed Ace related mods as it was for the LITE Collections for full compatibility with SP Missions and Campaigns that don't desire ACE usage.

- Removed "ACE Grenades in hatches - Tweaked" by johnb43 from ESSENTIALS LITE Collection
- Removed "Looting Enhanced " by a humble baker from ESSENTIALS LITE Collection
- Removed "Salmon Headgear Accessories (no sling)" by STyx2909 from ESSENTIALS LITE Collection

4/6/25 [REVERTING LITE COLLECTIONS FROM ACE SP TO NO ACE] Part 2

+ Added "MagRepack" by OOster to ESSENTIALS LITE Collection
+ Added "Loot to vehicle - Edited" by Snake to ESSENTIALS LITE Collection
+ Re-added "Drongos DYEL (carrying, logistics and interaction" by Drongo to ESSENTIALS MAIN & LITE Collection

*This was re-added for the cool incremental door opening feature. Everything else can be disabled or used in CBA options if you desire.

+ Added "Death and Hit reactions" by WebKnight to Essentials LITE Collection
*Since PIR Hit Reactions isn't included in LITE and there's no hit or death animations by default- this will finally be the answer to being a suitable mod to be used in the LITE collection. No more Vanilla reactionless AI (and player) when getting hit. Hoping it works well with Armor Plate System too.

- Removed "Remote Arsenal (ACE3 & BIS)" by Anorexican from Essentials MAIN & LITE Collection
*Replaced with the below mod!

+ Added "Call Virtual Arsenal or Garage" to Essentials MAIN & LITE Collection
*A new mod that not only allows you to spawn arsenal, but also virtual garage! Will get ace3 arsenal support and CBA3 keybind support later on- an upgrade from the mod above.
+ Re-added "Plane Loadout Everywhere" and "POLPOX's Base Functions" to Essentials MAIN & LITE Collection
+ Added "Armor Plates System" by diwako to Essentials MAIN & LITE Collection
*Should work with PiR. Further testing needed. Getting tired of getting one-shot by AI in some missions so this mod should balance everything out.
**DISABLE this mod if the mission you play has its own revive system- like Antistasi. Or if you don't wanna use this mod.
***TURN OFF TPW BLEEDOUT AND FALL. While both add to immersion, both are kind of buggy until TPW returns to fix his mod.

6/2/23 *Playtest Note (if using LITE)

Recommended to go into Controls > Configure Addons > Drongo's DYEL - Then UNBIND or CHANGE KEYBIND for Grenade Aim.

It's a very annoying grenade marker that is defaulted to "Shift+Z" and is really unnecessary. Do the above to remove or change it as "Animated Grenade Throwing" by Cucumber is already present.

Also make sure one or the other "Holster Weapon" keybind is used BUT NOT BOTH! In Controls > Enhanced Movement Rework "Holster Weapon" and ACE Weapons "Holster Weapon".
Might want to use Enhanced Movement Rework over Ace keybind.

5/19/23 Pt.1 MASSIVE OVERHAUL OF THIS MODPACK!!! *And de-cluttered collection description for readability

ADDED THREE NEW SUBCOLLECTIONS:
+ RHS Subcollection (RHS content focused missions and campaigns ex: GHOSTS [SP-CAMPAIGN])
+ CUP Subcollection (CUP content focused missions and campaigns ex: Cold War Rearmed III)
+ HORROR Subcollection (RAVAGE, REMNANT, CYTECH missions and campaigns)

*Moved some unnecessary mods from Essentials pack (also LITE) to subcollections

***Removed the following mods from Essentials (+LITE) pack:
- Remote Arsenal (ACE3 & BIS) *Mod may have caused trouble loading arsenal
- Blastcore Murr Edition by Vulpecula *While it has good fx, it tanks fps badly
- CLV Craters by FlyingTarta *No longer needed as Improved Craters does the job
- Vindicta Dev Branch by Vindicta Team *Replaced with Red vs. Green version
= "Unit Voice-overs RHS CUP compability" by worldlife *Moved to Mixed subcollection due to RHS UVO dependency :(
