Better Sniper Scopes

🎯 Features

This mod significantly increases the scope magnification of the **Marksman Rifle**, making it easier for you to spot and hit targets at long distances.

The module offers two version options:

  • **4x magnification version** - Moderate magnification effect
  • **8x magnified version** - Stronger long-distance aiming ability

⚡ How to use

Just choose to install the 4x or 8x version, no additional steps required.

📁 Installation Guide

  • Drag and drop the data.pak file into the game installation directory:

`C:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Dying Light The Beast\ph_ft\source`

  • If the file name is already used, please modify the pak file number (data7.pak is the last module slot)

🗑️ Uninstall method

  • Remove the data.pak file from the game installation directory

🔧 Compatibility Notes

  • Modified inventory_firearmsdefintions.scr file (line 752)
  • If the module slots are used up, you can refer to DocOnHoliday's merging tutorial

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
