Psi damage, Controller, & Emission visual effects overhaul/rework?

I am not a Modder so I cannot attest for the amount of effort this could really take but ever since I discovered stalker as a franchise I've always loved the lore and idea behind the Controllers and how the various ways that they attack you in the games, however I feel a tad disappointed in the vanilla controller's visual effects and sounds when attacking you or generally near you because it seems like the game has a lot of cool visual effects that in my opinion would much better suit controller encounters such as;

* The random 'fuzzy brain' trippy anomalies that bowl the audio and make you see the RGB split color effect around things as well as that annoying color saturation boost from vodka should be effects the controller has when within less that 7-10 meters to you on top of the blurry effect that he already does.

   -I Personally believe this better suits the Controller because I feel that that effect is a good representation of the brain being messed with, or tripping like the controller's effects and or psi damage to SoC.

   -In my opinion I believe the Psi damage effects were and are meant to be extremely reminiscent and or 1 to 1s of visuals and sensations people often experience under psychedelic drugs.

   -And albeit permanently unique to myself in memory, I can say that its INSANE how many visuals, noises, and effects in lore were exactly like ones I've felt in experiences with psychedelics I had in my life long before i had never seen or even heard of the Stalker franchise, but maybe that's just me & really strange coincidence. But I always hoped I wasn't the only one who thought that that's what they were going for.

 

* I also think the emissions should slowly show these affects stronger and stronger on you as the emission comes closer to the wave of damage, panicking the player more and more to find shelter as fast as possible.

   -I don't believe Emissions or Controllers should make you shakey, wobbly, or drunk like alcohol can or anything, just the visual effects should be re-organized and used more in different scenarios.   

 

Again, I'm not a Modder so idk how strenuous making something like this would be nor would I have any idea how to do it myself but it'd be so cool to see a mod that does this or something like this come out for the game or even the next Anomaly / Gamma to come out.
