This Alien: Isolation mod tweaks the AI of the Alien to fix some issues and provide a similar but more organic experience. The focus is to make the Alien: slightly less unfair, able to surprise you in more diverse ways, and omnipresent but still not all-knowing while creating situations as tense as before. You can find a more detailed list of the changes made to the AI by the mod in the complete description. Thank you and have fun!

Hi!
The mod doesn't change the AI of the humans directly. HOWEVER, they could very well be reacting to the Alien who is acting differently than in vanilla!
Hope you're having fun on your playthrough!
I just started a new playthrough with this mod. Does it affect the AI of hostile humans as well? I could swear they're behaving differently now than my previous recent playthroughs. I thought I could just breeze through the hospital section and the alien wasn't giving me too much difficulty (though I did notice refreshing differences), but it was the humans moving and reacting differently from before who were giving me a hard time. Previously they would hang out close to that room where you trigger the alarm to get the doors open but this time they started wandering the entire hallway and I couldn't get past them, I had to wait under a bed until the alien came and killed them. I was so scared it would notice me too but phew.
I really like this mod, I think it's even better than the unpredictable alien mod from years ago. I've played through A:I multiple times from start to finish (mostly on Nightmare)and this Alien tweak actually gave me some new scares with its behavior.
I've so far gotten up to trying to trap the Alien after listening to Marlow's story and I have no issues with it at all.
I did however notice something strange: very rarely when sneaking around, I will hear Amanda scream for no reason, followed by the Alien running someplace at a breakneck speed. But then nothing; it's as if the Alien had my location perfectly and was moving in for the kill, but somehow got lost.
It's only happened twice, but in no way did it break the game. This occurs very rarely, and never when I am actually in sight of the Alien. Just a funny quirk I stumbled upon in my playthrough using this mod. But anyway, very good mod, I highly recommend it for veteran players.
Thank you for your feedback! I really appreciate it and I'm glad you're having fun with the mod.
The Amanda screaming issue is a glitch coming from the game, as far as I know, it could be because of wrongly placed trigger boxes (like in this example Youtu.be).
As for the Alien running to get you then stopping, I think I know what's going on. When the Alien is in "intense" mode, I configured it to be able to calm down in only 3 seconds. Maybe if it takes longer to get to you then it causes that effect? In any case, I'll investigate and do my best to fix it in an upcoming version.
Thank you for reporting this, have a nice day!
any chance to download .5 version? I think the 1.0 is too aggressive for me
Hello!
The easiest for you to lower the difficulty would be to do it via the in-game option.
There is no official download for v0.5 but I can send you a link to do so if you're interested
I'd also like to try the less aggressive v0.5 version. Would be really great if we could choose both.
I've made the v0.5 version available for download!
Is anyone else not getting the alien at all with this? Like I'm firing my revolver off and nothing. I tried putting the backup files back in and still nothing.
Hello!
The Alien should show up with this mod :) Maybe you are in a section of the game where the Alien is not present? The backup files should work too, if you have any trouble with the installation, please contact me. You can find all instructions in "Info.txt".
In case you really cannot back up your files with the provided backup, you can use the "Verify integrity of game files" option of Steam, "Verify" option of the Epic Games Store or "Reset" option of Microsoft Store to reset your game files to their default state (note that it will erase all mods).
I hope you can solve your issue soon.
