How much did he pay you to make this video Joltz? It's so obvious.

[@M4SKED2001]

We love the Modding community for BL2, they always kill it with their mods and overhauls to the game to keep it alive.

[@Joltzdude139]

There are so many talented modders

[@PieletPi]

2:55 I don't know if it's intentional, but "Okay BNK-3R, you know the drill" is a really nice play on words when using b0re as Zer0. It works both as a common expression when repeating a task, aka fighting BNK-3R again, and also a reference to a literal drill and what you do with it, which is what the perk itself refers to as well.

[@SneakyG59]

fun fact on the topic of that, BUNK3-R when he says "00101010", that is 8-bit binary for "42", or as many of you might guess, a reference to hitchikers guide to the galaxy. AKA "the meaning of life". Also his death noises are just strings of Japanese tea names with some effects on it from ProTools.

[@TheTundraTerror]

The sign is a subtle joke. The shop is called "Sneed's Feed & Seed", where feed and seed both end in the sound "-eed", thus rhyming with the name of the owner, Sneed. The sign says that the shop was "Formerly Chuck's", implying that the two words beginning with "F" and "S" would have ended with "-uck", rhyming with "Chuck". So, when Chuck owned the shop, it would have been called "Chuck's Fuck and Suck".

[@TOTALLYsup]

I love where modding is now. I remember when I built my first PC back in the day and there were 2 mods on the Bl2 Nexus page. You were lucky to find a mod that replaced other weapons in the game with new ones. When mods that were able to add instead of replace items came out I was in awe.

[@FunkySlackin]

Oh my god i was having withdrawals thank you so much for uploading Joltz

@beanman9936Lethal league? It’s been so long since I’ve heard of it

[@jenbooob]

I think a good change to make for the future would be a lighting priority, where you can assign certain rarity glows to have a higher priority and would completely drown out all others of a lower priority. That way if you're farming for a blue unique for example, you can set blue rarity as having the highest priority so the glow from those will be the most prominent. Giving two rarities the same priority value will make them blend as you see in the mod normally. Plus having options to individually set each rarity's light settings would also be nice so you can make legendary and pearls really pop in loot pools over greens and whites, while also being able to reduce flashbang for people.

[@courier11sec]

Cool idea! And since this already seemed impossible I guess it's not crazy to think your suggestion could happen. 🙂

[@SneakyG59]

lmao, bunk3r just wanted to tell the vault hunter about his favorite teas and movie/book/bbc special/radio show.

[@SupremeAuthorEdits380]

Thanks Joltz!

[@Joltzdude139]

No problem dude!

[@gusbus9880]

An option to change lighting based on item rarity would be nice

[@dethsproductions]

Honestly looks like he basically attached lights (with color variability) to the weapons and gear. really good job!

[@CowKirbo]

My only complaint is the inability to filter individual rarities and items. Like turn off money, ammo, whites, greens and maybe even blues but leave the high rarity gear and leave on seraph crystals, eridium and such. I think that would be a very nice improvement if the mod ever gets updated

[@TheTundraTerror]

1:06 - me, visiting the CIA

[@cosmic12321]

We need some sort of mod for the feature to BLINK a couple times after a unique/legendary drops. This feature alone would be bonkers for vanilla BL2/TPS on consoles.

[@Nerf_Everything]

3:35 reminds me of Destiny 1's loot caves before that was patched.

[@stolentext9436]

I wish they added mod menus like the bathesda games had on consoles. Would be insane

[@Azure_fae]

Pearls look so pretty with this mod on. Blue greens, aqua, cyan, and turquoise was already my favorite color group so this mod makes me like them even more and really makes them pop out.

[@MrRADicalOfficial]

I feel like you still needed a little more Light Falloff, but damn does it still look so good! All the colors in a row was absolutely beautiful! Emissive lighting really is great 🥲excited to see what comes next! I haven't even played a single mod for Borderlands 2 yet, but I still want to see more. This is such a great thing to see! Props to everyone who made these mods a reality!

[@CursedMoistMan690]

I cant wait to see what kind of crazy mods that will come out, imagine custom characters

[@shakirmorgan4840]

1:57, White's a good choice, since it's every color of the rainbow combined.

[@titangaming3613]

Can I just say… Jolts sets ad’s at the very end of the video. Bro is a legend

[@farrel66]

it's 5 in the morning and I haven't slept, then Joltz uploads... guess I'm not sleeping yet 😂

[@av_kay5059]

I would love if u could adjust the settings for each rarity and the priority for each (as in their opacity) This mod makes the look feel so much more alive, really cool addition

[@Renigaderz]

Man this is just like a tiny step away from modders making borderlands 2 with boderlands 3 level lighting and textures. I love watching these leaps forward in tech its so cool!

[@Gunni1972]

For when white drops break your heart, but light up the room.😁

[@pacman9635]

Congrats on 14years ur insane dude

[@richjohnson7243]

Just got back into BL2 after taking about 8 years off. Love your videos.

[@voodoofrogg]

I think the light, if you use it, will make for a great addition to videos. Especially thumbnail screenshots

[@Brown614]

I haven't touched the game in like 8 years and I still watch this shit randomly idk how you do it man

[@driftwood42]

I just decided this week to install the bl2 reborn mod. I’ve played hundreds of hours of bl2 but I’m super excited for something new

[@unamuseddeathgod5128]

with these discoveries i'm hoping bl2 gets to a bethesda-game level of modding community ^^

[@undeadinside3571]

The next skyrim

[@WhySoSeriousGM]

Dude omg I would love that cuz I’m scared to mess with mods cuz I would definitely delete something important or download a file to the wrong place and break my game 😂 but on Skyrim I run like 40 mods at a time

[@MrRADicalOfficial]

Terraria and Minecraft like mods would be insane, and Skyrim ones, yeah. Excited to see what comes next!

[@presleydejean4638]

YESSSS the fact that borderlands modding is still progressing is so exciting

[@harry2597]

That's really cool! Would be even better if you could change lighting for individual things. So as you increase in quality they get brighter. Then you can identify them easier

[@ph03n1xphyr3]

When I saw the drops under Bunker’s cannon, my first thought was Terramorphous shining a flashlight on the ground.

[@argon_the_hunter1655]

at some point its just nice to hear joltz talking

[@BoundTheReal]

If it's possible to have a toggle setting for eridium beams but not the money or ammo, or a bit more customisation of what is glowing instead of how much it glows would be a nice QoL to this mod. I really like it, will definitely be using this one as straining my eyes from far is a hassle. Nice video, Joltz and Great mod, RedxYeti!

[@innertragedy2372]

Man I wish the modding community would look into doing a archipelago for borderlands 2 feel like would bring a lot of people into the game again

[@Cuestrupaster]

It needs to have different strengths and radius depending on the rarity, that would help a lot with all the colors bleding in when there's too much loot.

[@rajkanishu]

I think that's how TTWL does it?

Holy crap this is so impressive! RedxYeti is a beast!

[@OscarThompsondoritosswag]

joltz giving the green and blue values for pearls… he could code the game for memory at this point

[@ewaldthomas7545]

It would be sooo cool if you do a ultimate character playthrough or honestly just any kind of Bl2 playthrough with this mod on. Hack just treat it as a vanila setting from now on this is literally the best mod iv ever seen.

Thanks to Boosteroid, I don’t miss my old gaming PC at all.

The color for Effervescents is basically Incandescent Light Bulb color lol

[@bubie5007]

Hoping we get to a point where we can have custom missions with moded bosses and POIS.

[@dwn21top-man95]

As depressed as I am about the state of so many franchises I love, there’s always a glimmer of hope in the modding scene and the community as a whole. I’m very pessimistic about the future releases of borderlands, but I see only good things for BL2 as it continues to age. May Randy never smear it in his grease

[@tiaadog9493]

You can reload the infinity pistol all you need is no ammo and you have to pick it up

id love to see some pvp game modes where i can que into random lobby’s.

[@sassageflair257]

The only thing I would add is being able to tune each rarity individually

[@reffyaldo]

Imagine super randomizer with this mod, where we can obtain obscure colored item like red, yellow, and even black 😂

[@idk-fh3hk]

I think the color for the effervescents is supposed to mimic the reflection of an Opal gem

[@lazuliioverheaven]

This could mean alot for cosmetic mods and even full sized expansion mods

Exodus overhaul with Spare Parts is so much fun

[@NopeNoJoke]

I can't believe S & S Accessories is modding borderlands 2.. .

[@JDragonKnight654]

So cool. The only think I would like, are Eridian Weapons, BL1 style, from the Vault from the Torgue DLC; Lazer weapons, like Pre-sequel, and Cryo weapons, like Pre-sequel. If a mod had them, I would only run mods for BL2 then.

[@tempanon8672]

Oh. You showed this off a few days ago, right? It was so subtle I didn't notice anything was different.

[@youtubeterminatedmyaccount8882]

i use the arcania mod as my go to everytime i play now so this is awesome

[@chadofchads7222]

[@scruffyronin9382]

just wondering, does this work on the modded rarities? I know there's the black rarity technically in the game that appears on hacked weapons. Or stuff like the Reborn mod with it's custom dark orange legendaries. I wonder if this has support for stuff like that, or if its all preset and would need to be added manually for each rarity outside the normal ones. Very impressive mod tho, can't wait to see where BL2 modding goes in the next few years!

[@HaseDGS]

higher rarity lights should always win against a lower rarity light imo if that makes sense

[@turtlesandwich77]

Ok I wanted to start modding BL2 but now I NEED to start modding BL2

[@BrimBlam]

Honestly still waiting for the day we can mod Pre-Sequel exclusive guns and the whole OZ-KIT system into 2, Id love to see how lasers would stack in the BL2 meta and I'm not foolish enough to think the reverse mod (bl2 to presequel) would happen.

[@rajkanishu]

just mod an endgame into presequel pls

[@w01dnick]

It'd be nice to make radius&intensity dependent on rarity: white don't glow, green small radius, low intensity, blue small radius, mid intensity purple larger radius, mid intensity, golden large radius, high intensity

[@scuggs]

crazy how the gub always lands upright

[@primusstar5995]

Honestly I wouldn’t be surprised if we get an ACTUAL borderlands 2 vr with multiplayer through modding alone…

One day borderland modderz will ethier mod all of borderlands 2 into borderlands 3 or mod all of borderlands 3 into 2

[@xpicit271]

Joltz, I’ve been wanting to do a modded playthrough myself, would you recommend going with a mix of the patch and bl2fix or just exodus or Arcania for the first play through?

[@iris4547]

crazy seeing someone in 2025 getting excited about 1997 lighting tech.

kinda reminds me of how the candy glows.. maybe it was taken from the overlay of that?
