Payday 2 Performance Mods

12

The co-op shooter FPS Payday 2 is a great game to play with your friends, but it gets even better with mods. There are tons of Payday 2 mods but most of the ones that exist aren’t total overhauls since it is mainly a multiplayer game, but the modding community of the game already produced some useful additional content. Without further a due, here are the best Payday 2 mods you need for a better experience.

Mar 25, 2017  My mod Low Violence Mode modworkshop.net instantly removes dead bodies and leftover shields and also disables blood and bullet decals (meaning, that mod that 'removes' decals by replacing their texture with a smaller texture is unnecessary). The game was updated some time ago so that the various texture-based clues in the game are always at. Concluded on Sunday 12th April and I want to say a huge thank you to all the authors - old and new - who shared mods with the community through this period. We had a whopping 273 mods from 216 authors across 48 games. That was less than 25% of the 1206 mods uploaded during the week, so don't forget to add the 'Stay Home.

Best Payday 2 Mods

1. BLT 2.0

Before we get to the meaty part of great Payday 2 mods, we need the BLT 2.0 to install and manage our mods easier. It notifies you when there is an update for one of your mods and lets you update it easily. You can also check the information about the mod you are planning to download beforehand, so overall this is an essential Payday 2 add-on if you are planning on modding the game.

2. Enemy Health and Info

Payday 2’s Enemy Health and Info mod show the health of the enemy you are aiming at with a health bar above their head. It also shows their names, giving each kill more weight; you can also change these names from the mod’s files. A small Payday 2 mod, but useful regardless.

3. WolfHUD

One of the must-have Payday 2 mods, WolfHUD combines a lot of useful HUD mods together and makes some necessary changes. There are around 30 additions and changes such as KillCounter, TabStats and AutoPickup. You can also turn off the functions you do not like from the Options menu.

4. Better Bots

Though Payday 2 is mainly a co-op game, there will be times where you have to play with bots. Better Bots does what its name suggests: It makes Payday 2’s bot way more useful. They can aim and shoot faster, throw grenades, melee, dominate cops and mark enemies and more. It is one of the best Payday 2 mods for when your friends are offline.

5. Keepers

Keepers is another mod for Payday 2’s bots that when combined with our previous pick, can make the singleplayer Payday 2 experience much better. This essential Payday 2 mod improves bots’ pathfinding, taking cover and responsiveness. You can also order them to patrol, take cover or interact with objects.

6. Re-Texture Project – Performance & Quality

Re-Texture Project is a texture mod that vastly changes some of the locations in Payday 2. Some indoor textures in Payday 2 are undeniably badly textured and designed. This mod overhauls all of them and changes those textures to more modern ones.

7. FEDNET Inventory Icons

This Payday 2 inventory mod changes vanilla grey icons of your weapons and equipment in your inventory with colored ones from the game’s FBI database. FEDNET Inventory Icons look way better and make it easier to find what you are looking for in the game.

8. Restoration Mod

Restoration Mod is the closest you can get to a Payday 2 overhaul mod. It is a major mod project collaboration that adds a lot of new features, restores cut features, rebalances gameplay elements and adds new masks, heists, weapons and enemies with new gameplay mechanics. It is one of the biggest Payday 2 mods out there, so it requires some outside help in order to work: SuperBLT, Beardlib, and the Voiceline Framework.

9. Bullet Dismemberment

Enemies in the Payday 2 can get really frustrating in the later levels, so if you have ever wanted to rip a Taser’s limbs off, you can use Bullet Dismemberment mod. As its name suggests, this graphics mod lets you decapitate and dismember your enemies in Payday 2.

10. Burstfire

You can shoot your guns in single fire or full-auto in Payday 2, but there aren’t any burst fire options. Burstfire is a weapon mod lets you use burst fire on some weapons by tapping V twice. Be careful, though, since if you mod the gun with a fixed fire mode like auto/single fire, burst fire won’t work.

11. Dynamic Crosshair

The first Payday game, The Heist featured a crosshair, but as you know, there isn’t one in Payday 2. While this makes the game more immersive, some people like to play with a crosshair. Dynamic Crosshair is a HUD mod does not only add a crosshair, but it also makes it so that it changes shape according to stances and changes color when aiming at an enemy or civilian.

12. Drap & Drop Inventory

In Payday 2, you need to click “Move Item” on the item you want to move and then select the slot you want in order to manage your inventory. That is far from smooth. Drag & Drop Inventory is a quality of life mod allows you to move your inventory by dragging and dropping the items in your pack.

13. Hostage Escort Tweaks

This quality of life improvement lets you handle 3 hostages at once and increases their maximum follow distance, so they don’t just lay on the ground when you move a little bit far away from them. They also follow you a lot closer and move faster, so you won’t just kill hostages out of frustration anymore thanks to Hostage Escort Tweaks.

14. Loading Screen Info

Loading screens in Payday 2 used to be black screens, but even the new ones are pretty bland with just trivia information. Loading Screen Info simple mod adds a lot of general and useful tips, tricks as well as some specific information about the campaign you are playing. A fundamental Payday 2 mod for newcomers.

15. Reconnect To Server

Every gamer faces some connection issues at some point, but in the vanilla Payday 2 reconnecting to the last server you were playing is a hassle as you need to find the game again on Crime.net. Reconnect To Server is a lightweight mod that adds the ability to reconnect to the last connected server by a simple Reconnect button.

16. Inventory Count

Probably the simplest Payday 2 mod in our list, Inventory Count shows you the number of throwables and deployables such as grenades and Ace of Spades cards when you select them. This should be in the main native game, but who needs good game design when you have a modder?

From the simple quality of life improvements and small tweaks to huge overhaul and gameplay mods, here are our top picks for the best Payday 2 mods you can’t play without. Of course, there are countless more mods for Payday 2 but these are our choices. If you have a great suggestion or liked our article, let us know!

Dependency mod for other PAYDAY 2 Lua mods, to make held keybind detection easier.Compatible with both BLT and SuperBLT.

I made this because I've had technical issues with the functions provided in the Keybind Manager for BLT/SuperBLT.

HoldTheKey:Add_Keybind(keybind_id)

Use this function to store and register keybinds, so that you may add them later with HoldTheKey:Get_Mod_Keybind(). I would advise putting this inside a hook to MenuManagerInitialize.

Arguments:keybind_id as defined in your mod's menu.

Returns: Nothing. :(

Example:

Hooks:Add( 'MenuManagerInitialize', 'MenuManagerInitialize_TacticalLean', function(menu_manager)

HoldTheKey:Add_Keybind('keybindid_taclean_left')

HoldTheKey:Add_Keybind('keybindid_taclean_right')

[..]

end)

HoldTheKey:Remove_Keybind(keybind_id)

Use this function to remove stored keybinds. I don't know when you'd ever need it but it's there if you do.

Arguments:keybind_id as defined in your mod's menu.

Returns: Nothing. :(

Example:

HoldTheKey:Remove_Keybind('keybindid_pirateperfection_addthirtygazilliondollarstomyspendingcash')

HoldTheKey:Get_Mod_Keybind(keybind_id)

Arguments:keybind_id as defined in your mod's menu.

Returns: The name of the bound keyboard button or mouse button.

Serial halo 2 2018. This is in response to all the idiots that give out fake product keys for Halo 2 for Windows Vista. Don't use keygens and don't worry about calling Microsoft or Bungie. Halo 2 Serial Number Keygen for All Versions Find Serial Number notice: Halo serial number, Halo all version keygen, Halo activation key, crack - may give false results or no results in search terms. This feature is not available right now. Please try again later.

Example:

> HoldTheKey:Get_Mod_Keybind('keybindid_taclean_left')

=> 'q'

HoldTheKey:Keybind_Held(keybind_id)

Very useful. Use this to check if your key is being held. Can be used in once-per-frame checks.

Arguments:keybind_id as defined in your mod's menu.

Returns: Boolean- whether or not the key bound to that keybind is being held.

Example:

Hooks:PostHook(PlayerManager,'update','PlayerManagerUpdate_TacticalLean',function(self,t,dt)

if HoldTheKey:Keybind_Held('keybindid_taclean_left') then

--do stuff

end

end)

HoldTheKey:Key_Held(key)

Arguments: Keyboard button name or mouse button name.

Returns: Boolean- whether or not that key is being held.

Example:

>HoldTheKey:Key_Held('num 0')

=>true

HoldTheKey:Get_BLT_Keybind(keybind_id)

Do not use this function in per-frame checks, because it'll severely hinder performance. Use HoldTheKey:Add_Keybind() and HoldTheKey:Get_Mod_Keybind() if you want to get the name of a key by its keybind_id.

This is fine to use if you're a lazy dev and you want to test something without doing setup- it's functionally otherwise the same as HoldTheKey:Get_Mod_Keybind(), just without the required setup or optimization.

Arguments:keybind_id as defined in your mod's menu.

Returns: The name of the bound keyboard button or mouse button.

HoldTheKey:Refresh_Keybinds() (Previously 'Save_All_Keybinds()')

Gets a list of every keybind_id currently stored with HTK and checks it against BLT's registered keybind keys, to update saved keyboard button names or mouse button names stored with its respective keybind_id pair in HTK.

In essence, this function is used to refresh saved keybinds, in case the user has rebound any mod keybinds which require HTK.

Arguments: None

Returns: Nothing :(
