I was going to modify the visual mask of the GPNVG-18 to make it look like in ground branch, but the bundle file that contains the textures is not used by the game at all, for some strange reason. That means I can't apply the modded mask to the game for now. The file that has the masks is in "EscapeFromTarkov_Data\StreamingAssets\Windows\assets\systems\effects\nightvision". Even deleting it changes nothing ingame.
If anyone manages to find the correct bundle file for the masks please let me know.
