Dark Souls 2 will soon get a new lighting overhaul mod
https://www.dsogaming.com/videotrailer-news/dark-souls-2-will-soon-get-a-new-lighting-overhaul-mod/
Earlier this month, we shared a 24GB HD Texture Pack/Mod for Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin. Created by modder ‘fromsoftserve’, that pack overhauled all of the game’s textures. And, from the looks of it, fromsoftserve is now working on a new lighting overhaul mod for this FromSoftware game.
This mod will be called Scholar of the Second Sin Lighting Overhaul Mod and will be based on the Lighting Engine Mod. The mod will also feature the aforementioned Texture Pack, meaning that you can get both of them in one package.
>> There's an over 15 minutes video of the mod.

New gameplay video for The Last of Us Part I’s first-person mod
https://www.dsogaming.com/videotrailer-news/new-gameplay-video-for-the-last-of-us-part-is-first-person-mod/
YouTube’s Voyagers Revenge shared a new video, showcasing the WIP first-person mod for The Last of Us Part I. This video will give you an idea of what The Last of Us could look like with an FP camera/perspective.
This WIP mod brings you closer to the action and works surprisingly well. In fact, it looks as good as an official first-person mode. Still, and despite how incredible the mod looks, Voyagers Revenge claims that it is currently unstable and crashes the game multiple times. Moreover, the mod does not support the game’s latest version.
Unfortunately, there is also no ETA on when the mod will come out. And, to be honest, I don’t expect this to release in the foreseeable future. Its first video surfaced in April 2023 and after three months, the mod is still in a really buggy state. Or at least that’s what its creator claims.
>> There's an almost 9 minutes video of the mod.
