OxideX8 has integrated this mod into OXA 2.0 which provides an experience that is more tightly interwoven into the actual look and feel of the game. Night Vision goggles are found as in-game loot or purchased from vendors. When these items are equipped they can be toggled and used. This is a major immersion improvement upon my mod which allows NVG at any time. If you have OXA 2.0+, my mod is not needed unless you want granular control over NVG settings.
Toggle with:
- N for Keyboard
- LB + RB for Gamepads
New In Version 1.4:
- Config Variable Loading - Allows for NVG Custom Settings to be set from Engine.ini.
** This is the only option for saved settings for GamePass **
See the Config Variable Setup document for more details
Open Settings UI:
- Press F7 on keyboard while Night Vision is turned on in-game.

INSTALLATION
* Either Simple ModLoader or UE4SS is required (but not both).
* If you simply want to use the mod in game: I suggest using Simple ModLoader
* If you want to go deeper into the game code and potentially start making mods yourself: I suggest using UE4SS
