1Stealth Mod
Installing this mod enhances enemy detection based on environmental factors like fog and rain, while your stealthier movements (crouching and walking) make you harder to spot.
You can now crouch-walk past enemies, ambush them, or hide in dense foliage to break their line of sight. NPC alertness is reduced, making stealth gameplay more viable.
