Recommendations
Due to the large file size of many textures used in this mod, some users may experience significantly longer load times during gameplay. Therefore, it is strongly recommended to install Freelancer: HD Edition on an (M.2) SSD. Moreover, having a somewhat modern dedicated GPU is ideal to ensure the game runs smoothly with all the included graphics-related enhancements.
