About this mod

Hi guys, In the last days I´ve worked a lot on a tweaked ini file for crisper graphics. I´ve tested the file for bugs and played the game complete now.

With this graphical massive ini tweaks I have improved the shadows, more crisper visuals, and now natural lighting and fixes a hair bug but in game :)

Changelogs
Massive Graphic Config Tweak for ME1 1.03 version (only) natural Lighting 1.3  
New Improvements with version 1.03 


I´m working  on Mass Effect 2 now. I will upload a first version in a few hours. I hope they change nothing on the lighting anymore, because of modding the light

- updated for patch 1.03
- slightly lighting changes- fixed a bug on transparence longer hair on choras nest
- performance improvements  (texture streaming)
throw out the ultra version, because of crashes on my system and only minor improvements

Improvements with the tweak file:

- fixing a translucency hair bug in choras nest
- shiny shader improvements with crisper details
- higher texture resolution Level of Detail
- higher dynamic shadow resolution
- better soft shadows, with softer border. Looks better on clothes and faces
- Natural Lighting without black crush and lower saturated (Looks more like Mass Effect 2 Vanilla)
- no motion blur- lesser  jagged edges- texture streaming improvements for a more stable performance
- anisotropic filtering
- more detailed volume light and volume shadows
- Normal optimized for 1440p 


It´s improved now
You need for my first version a 4 GB Graphics Card
Tested on Geforce RTX 2080 with Intel CPU 4790K on a 970 NVME Drive.Game runs faster for me with my optimizations on citadel and on MAKO Missions
You must install 2 files. I´m using the Origin Version of The ME LE Edition.
Thanks EA and Bioware for the Mass Effect Legendary Edition
Big Thanks to the Modder that created the Coalesced _INT.bin Unpacker and Packer: Without this it would not work.

Installation:
Upload the file and copy in the direction below. Make a backup from your original files before. 
Copy the file Coalesced_INT.bin to this path of your main mass effect folder:Mass Effect Legendary Edition\Game\ME1\BioGame\CookedPCConsole
Copy the file GamerSettings to this path of your main mass effect folder:Mass Effect Legendary Edition\Game\ME1\BioGame\Config.

Have fun with this little graphical tweak file and enjoy the crisper image. ;)
Warning:THis mod works not with mods like  Easy Console Commands, because it uses a edited Coalesced_INT.bin file too.
