SGW3 - Improvement Project/Unofficial Patch
- The Improvement Project/Unofficial Patch is a mod for the game that comes in two variants. The Improvement Project extensively modifies the game, adding new gameplay features, and significantly altering the core gameplay. The Unofficial Patch is focused on bug fixes, leaving the original gameplay largely intact, but fixing issues such as broken key rebinding, day/night cycle, laser sights, texture filtering, and NPCs disappearing at ~250 meters or after being unobserved for longer than two seconds.
