What is this?

This mod adds gear that is inspired by the Kerberos Saga universe, e.g.

- The Red Spectacles (1987)

- StrayDog: Kerberos Panzer Cops (1991)

- Jin-Roh (1999)

It adds several armor parts and new clothing items. Every item has a normal (black) variant, a winter camo variant (perfect for Sakhal or Namalsk) and a green jungle camo variant, perfect for Livonia or jungle maps:

Three helmet variants

Six mask variants

Six vest variants

Three hand armor variants

Three armored belt variants

Three gasmask filter variants

Three backpack variants

Three boots variants

Three pouch variants

Three new nbc-jacket variants

Three new nbc-pants variants

Three new nbc-hood-variants

Three new nbc-boots variants

One badge

Features / Functionality

This mod implements two new features:

1. You dont have to wear a full NBC-Suit to survive in toxic zones. You only need to wear the nbc-jacket, nbc-pants and the full Kerberos-Gear. Also the Kerberos Mask Filter provides much bigger quantity.

2. The Night Vision masks can be worn in the eye slot. They only require a 9V Battery. You can turn them on either in hands or while wearing them by pressing / holding the "L"-Key (by default). When turning them on/off a sound will be played that can be heard a short distance (also by other players, not by zombies). Also the eye-section of the mask will start glowing red, which can be seen by day but also easily by night. They also feature a custom -red- night vision effect with some grain in it.

Also every item has fully working damaged and ruined stages defined. Every item has five distance LODs.

The backpack allows one mask and one filter to be attached as well as one nbc jacket and one pair of nbc pants.

The pouches can be attached on the belt.

The badge can be attached on the hand armor alongside a knife sheath.

How does the gasmask + filter work?

In order to wear the Kerberos gasmask filter the player is required to wear the Kerberos Gas Mask and the Kerberos Backpack.

Once attached the mask and backpack slot are locked until you remove the filter. Also the player head movement is more restricted due to the gasmask tubes.
