Melons' SP Tarkov 3.11 Modlist

Watch my playthrough using these mods on YouTube!
SPT version: 3.11
Versions and links reflect a SPT 3.11 setup. A newer release of a mod may not be compatible with this version of SPT.
Optional Performance Boost: This setup is running in a Headless Fika environment to offload some of the processing power needed to run lots of enemy bots. Instructions for setting this up can be found in the Fika wiki linked below. If not running headless, look into changing settings in MOAR, SAIN, Questing Bots, and Looting Bots to improve performance.
Make sure to read the install instructions for every mod.
