About this mod

Back again for NEXT! Essentially the same as before but I added a new option: Minimal Vegetation! This is optimized for Low-End PC by boosting your FPS to about 10-15 at the cost of eye candy.

UPDATE: this mod has been deprecated with the addition of resolution scaler. Though I'm keeping this for old version users.

LowQualityNEXT:
 Like before, this one will reduce internal resolution and scale, probably it will hurt your eyes but hey, it's a 7-10 FPS Increase! Won't change anything related to UI though.

MinimalVegetation: As you might Imagine, Humanity needs to optimize the land by destroying everything for mobility, so most planets WILL look a bit barren (including Lush, sorry). Some special planets are unaffected (I.E. Crystal, Scorched, or the obvious; Dead) so this one can be a bit unreliable at times. Although it will help remove micro-stutter, if you have it. Not really a noticeable increase in performance except if you need the boost, or use both of the mods because you own a heck of a potato (like mine obv.)

This is optimized for Low-End PC, so I don't know how well it will perform if you have a $5,000 rig. Don't blame me if something unexpected happens. Although, you probably won't need this anyway.

I can't guarantee this will work for you or older/newer version. It does work for me (NEXT v1.59) and my curiosity test on NEXT V1.50. So if it works for you, then Enjoy!

I put the same thing on the ReadMe.txt, if you prefer that.
