Changelogs
Version 3.0.1
Added support for new functionality in Ultra+ Mod Manager 1.4
Version 3.0.0
Tuned PostProcessVolumes to enhance overall lighting quality across the whole game
Tuned reflections slightly
Tuned other settings
Added LensAttenuation to adjust lighting relative brightness/darkness
Many new settings available to tune the lighting quality as well as brightness and reflection quality
BetterReflectionSDFs: improves quality of SDFs in reflections especially through translucent objects for a high VRAM cost (>1GB) and a few FPS (game/off/on)
LensAttenuation: this setting allows effectively allows changing the intensity of the scene and brightness difference between dark and light areas, lower values will have darker dark areas which makes for different vibes (default/lower/lowerer/lowest) - Ctrl+F9
LightingQuality: low for more FPS if you are really struggling with FPS, standard for default settings, high for higher VRAM usage and slight performance hit, epic for higher VRAM usage and performance hit, epic_alt modes are somewhat experimental epic variants for an increase resolution of lumens cache (game/low/standard/high/epic/epic_alt/epic_alt2) - Ctrl+F10
LightingUpdateSpeed: speed of lighting gather and scene updates (default/high/epic/insane)
Version 3.0-preview
A ton of changes
Added new LightingOverhaul setting with many different lighting modes (I hope to simplify this at some point)
There are 4 primary choices - off, on, on_rr, and on_rr_alt - all of the on modes have various quality values
Each lighting mode has some different characteristics and on_rr/on_rr_alt is a more experimental version meant to only be used with ray reconstruction
Added LightingAO setting to choose between AO methods: Lumen, SSAO, and GTAO. These methods only apply for off and on lighting modes
Modified the games PostProcessingVolumes to change game asset related settings for lighting
This should enhance lighting significantly in addition to enhancing reflection quality and other minor lighting details
More diffuse lighting that has more "bounces"
Version 2.6.2
Include version file
Update extensions version
Version 2.6.1
Updates for tooling support - no other changes
Version 2.6.0
Minor performance improvements
Refactored extensions into a new more user-friendly format
UltraPlusConfig.ini will be replaced when installing v2.6.0
**Note**: Please read the config file to learn about the updated functionality and to set your defaults
Individual keybinds are disabled by default: EnableKeybinds can be set to 'on' in the configuration file to enable all keybinds
NEW: press F12 to load the current configuration live in-game - make your edits in the file and load them while in game
All options for each setting are listed in the config in a condensed format - double click, copy and paste into the setting for easy changes
Some configuration parameters do not have keybinds - we can't add a keybind for every setting
Modify the config file and press F12 to load the changes live
All configuration options that can be game defaults now default to game controlled. This is the 'game' setting provided for most of the configuration options. This means that users defaults for things like HDR will no longer be overridden on first use of the mod which led to several users erroneously thinking HDR no longer functioned correctly.
Added ChromaticAberration to configuration file (Defaults to game default instead of off)
Version 2.5.0
**IMPORTANT** Please read the included UltraPlusConfig.ini. New configuration method provided for simply modifying the config file and pressing F12 to load changes in game. Keybinds disabled by default - set to on in the config file if you would like keybinds.
Performance Improvements migrated from Stalker 2 mod: Should have better lows/less stuttering though it wasn't much of an issue in Robocop
Increased Quality of Low, Medium, High, and Epic Global Illumination quality
Fixed DLSS by removing "Lumen Percent" from the extensions - we found that this did not function as intended. You can now set DLSS quality in the game menu
Disabled chromatic aberration - if you want to turn it on again you can use r.SceneColorFringeQuality=1 in your Engine.ini
Fixed HDR tearing when both HDR and frame generation are enabled
HDR toggle button bound to CTRL + F8
Migrated extensions from Stalker 2 mod; Applies settings that were not correctly applied before when the mod loads
New Ultra Plus scalability settings accessible via CTRL + F10
New Ultra Plus Quality presets (accessible via CTRL + F12) **Note**: This comes along with a new "simplified" mode that disables the granular keybinds by default - press CTRL + F2 to reenable all of the keybinds
Added motion blur setting accessible via F7
Enabled console by default accessible via ~
Version 2.0.2
Fix 2.0.1
Version 2.0.1
Restore performance almost to vanilla, but while keeping quality high
Adjusted Lumen to improve lighting quality and fix some minor boiling noise in shadows
Version 2.0.0-beta01

Run translucent materials (glasses, hologram signage) at 100% instead of 50% to fix half-res translucency
Enabled hardware Lumen
F12: Enabled Ray Reconstruction (DLSS only for now)
Reduced Lumen noise
F10: to cycle reflections quality: Vanilla, Medium, High
Decreased subsurface skin strength from 0.8 to 0.5 to be more physically-based
Adjusted frame timing to stop some hitches
F6: Cycle DLSS preset (default is 'E')
F5: Disable vignette
