Are there any essential mods?

[Konke]

Hi! I just bought this game on the PC and I'm wondering if there are any good mods that are more or less essential to the gameplay. Any tips, thoughts or recommendations are appreciated!

Bit confused on what you mean by "more or less essential" so I'll go with if there's any that fixes bugs/glitches/crashes which is a not to my knowledge there is, there's this:

But it's not really a mod, there's also this:

But it doesn't really fix anything game breaking it's more for aesthetics.

Depending on if you're using a controller that isn't a 360 one this will probably be esstential:

Otherwise no there's not really any mods that are required (except for maybe the controller one) unless you're really hardcore on the graphics.

Thank you for your suggestions! Some of the games I've been modding are Skyrim and Fallout New Vegas, which both feel somewhat better with certain mods. Skyrim has some mods which don't only increase performance and stability, they make the game a lot more PC friendly.

If I receive crashes I'll check out the 4GB fix. Otherwise if there aren't that many other "must have mods" perhaps the HD mod will be of interest. Thanks again.

EDIT: Oh, and one more thing... For Skyrim there are specific modding tools which let you install mods easy and safely, just rather than manually putting files in the corrects folders. How's the modding for RE4? Are there any tools I should be working with?

I don't use it personally so I don't have any opinions on it, but it seems pretty much easy to use.
