Summary

Enhanced Combat Effects transforms the battlefield with a complete overhaul of Reforger's visual effects, delivering a gritty, immersive experience designed for ultra hardcore players.

Official Workshop description

Attempting to recreate the violent, chaotic atmosphere of modern combat. Every shot fired, every round impacting a wall, and every explosion detonating nearby is designed to make firefights feel more intense, dangerous, and immersive. A reworked version nearly every major combat visual, including: -Enhanced muzzle flashes with realistic flash signatures based on weapon type and muzzle device. -Improved tracer effects with more authentic brightness, persistence, and trajectory visibility. -Rebuilt explosion effects featuring denser smoke, brighter blast flashes, and longer-lasting debris. -Overhauled material impact effects, with unique dust, sparks, concrete fragments, dirt spray, wood splinters, and metal strikes that better reflect the surface being hit. -Refined particle effects for a cleaner, more believable battlefield without sacrificing visibility.
