Hey all!
Just a simple mod for today! This mod is intended to improve the grass density in the game by altering the meshes by hand. All models have been duplicated and rearranged to add 3 to 5 times the number of vertices, and 3 to 5x the number of individual grass blades. The base models are from the original version of the game, which appears to improve shading a little in addition to making the grass fuller than ever before.
This mod may be intensive on older rigs but for most of the game the performance appears stable. Please let me know how it affects your performance so I can gauge this as accurately as possible!
In both screenshots above I am using the same basic ini tweaks (draw distance + supersampling + foliage improvements).
Installation: As with other mods, you can simply install by placing the desired .pak files in \steamapps\common\DRAGON QUEST XI S\Game\Content\Paks
Future plans: > Improve meshes for fields, flowers and other foliage > Possible half-density version for lower end rigs
HUGE thanks to my good friend mike9k1 for coming up with the idea, doing the research and guiding me to a fix - as well as being my chief bug tester!
