TIP: If you install all this, remember to hit shift-F12 at some point every time you launch the game to turn on the nicer lighting (which also improves the textures imo).
The author's initial THIS to THAT example pics aren't a great representation, but the mods do greatly improve the visuals, especially the lighting and some choice environment textures. It made getting back into Deus Ex much easier for me. In fact, I beat the game (started cheating about halfway through to reach the deadline) before Human Revolution came out ^^
