Urban Decay v2.5 (v2.5 Ready)

Last verified on V2.5: This mod was last tested against the v2.5 Survival Revival update (early 2026). There is no confirmed V3.0 or V3.1 build, so pin your server and client to the branch it targets before installing.

Urban Decay v2.5 is a visual and environmental overhaul. It makes the world feel truly abandoned, replacing sterile vanilla textures with moss, rust, and debris that reacts to the V2.5 weather system.

V2.5 Specific Updates

  • Moss & Ivy Growth: Procedural greenery that climbs buildings based on in-game time.
  • Rust Overhaul: Vehicles and metal structures now show realistic oxidative wear.
  • Atmospheric Lighting: Custom LUTs that enhance the 'horror' atmosphere of the Survival Revival update.

Pro-Tips & Community Hints

  • This mod is purely visual but has a 10% FPS impact - turn down 'Reflections' in V2.5 settings to compensate.
  • The best atmosphere is in the Burnt Forest biome, where the new lighting really shines.
