about to play

[Dr.Mario'sTeabaggin Squirrel Rx]

wanted to ask around for any advice if i should install a mod to make the game better like ui, or hd updates? it has to be easy and quick to install and be able to record my steam hours on. Any help?

This game works right out of the box, and some people have no problems with it working as is. But if you want the best experience, there are two things I can think of.

1) The AI noticeably decreases in quality when the game is played at or above 60 fps, so if you can limit your framerate to 59 via RivaTuner Statistics, I would recommend that. That is only relevant in single-player.

2) The Steam version has lost EAX support, which had different environmental reverb sounds for the different sized rooms. If you want to play with that effect, you would want to follow the instructions for installing CreativeALchemy here: https://forums.thedarkmod.com/index.php?/topic/18249-obsolete-as-of-tdm-206-tutorial-how-to-setup-eax-for-tdm-on-any-soundcard/#comment-392890
Note though that the guide was written for a Thief mod called The Dark Mod so just replace all references to that with AvP Classic.

I forgot to mention you may want to pick up the soundtrack fix, since the game by default plays the tracks in the wrong order. You can download it with installation instructions here: https://www.moddb.com/games/aliens-vs-predator/addons/fixed-avp-classic-soundtrack
