About this mod
Improves lighting+effect quality and render distance with minimal impact on performance, via Engine.ini. Tailored specifically for this game, so it won't cause inconsistent visuals and crashes like the other similar mod on here.
- Permissions and credits
This mod only contains overrides that do something in this game, and consistently look the same or better compared to defaults. It doesn't aim to change the overall look of the game, only to improve it's technical aspects.
It should only reduce performance by 10-15%. I have no trouble reaching 120FPS in most areas on a 6600XT. I've tested nearly the entire game and not had a single crash or issue.
Use with in-game graphics set to high.
List of Changes:
- Reflections are slightly higher quality and on more surfaces
- Subsurface scattering for more accurate lighting of skin and hair
- GTAO for much better shading of creases and corners
- Much higher object view distance
- High quality shadows, even on distant objects
- Higher quality / less muddy bloom
- Subtle, high quality per-object motion blur
How to Install:
- Navigate to
C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\CCFF7R\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor
- Option 1: Replace Engine.ini with the one you downloaded
