IMPORTANT DISCLAMER: i am sorry if i have not been clear, i did not relice how little mention of this my description makes so here we go;
this would not be posible without the mod creators before me. i have copied, compiled and altered other peoples ini files. if you see something you like, its most likely not my original edits. i have made alterations and made everything work together, but credits for the original goes to the original mod creator. thank you. (credits are on the nexus mod page and in the "READ ME" that comes with the mod, the reason they are not here is due to a recomendation by someone i trust to keep this page clean)

to fully enjoy this mod, it is vital that you read the "READ ME" and follow the youtube tutorial I made (the link is in the "READ ME") you can also find it on the mod page. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THE GLOBAL LUMINATION MOD, IT WAS THE ONE THAT CAUSED THE GAME TO CRASH

It seems the universe is finally at balance. to look at the creators that made all this possible, go to the credits tab or look in the "READ ME" that is included in my mod.

this mod is a mod pack that includes a ReShade, ini edits and is intended to be downloaded along with a lot of other mods you can find in my youtube tutorial here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lxHGA4-gRI

What this mod does on its own:
- improved AI
- improved vehicle handling 
- changes the internal workings of the ray tracing
- makes your character visible in reflections (I think it's exclusive to raytracing currently)
- optimizes the game to run better
- changes the autosave time and checkpoint autosave time to 30 seconds
- increases the render distance
- includes 2 categories, one of which is compatible with DLSS and one is not. 
- in the non-DLSS version, bloom and anti-aliasing is disabled to give more creative control and remove ALOT of rushed blurriness
- enables subsurface translucency in character skin
- a bunch of other things

to get the full experience, remember to follow the youtube video. There has been a lot going on lately so please tell me if you find any issues :-)

I have a youtube chanel, it is the same one that the video is posted to, i will be addressing the drama there later, i will link the video when that happens. here it is: https://youtu.be/cFXVRGBfH-A
