When giving feedback or making bug reports be as detailed as possible. For example: state which version of the mod you're using, and what your upscaling/anti-aliasing is

Update v2.7 - Drastically reduced ghosting - Improved frametime stability (less hitches) - Added an additional optional file(only works on Windows, not Linux)
Update v2.6 - Major performance uplift for the "Performance" and "Ultra Performance" preset. 7% minimum in GPU limited scenes, most of the time more.
Update v2.5 - Fixed graphical issues inside some indoor areas - Fixed bug on characters eyes/faces looking weird - Improved DLSS quality (requires latest game update, the devs fixed this issue) - Added better compatibility for the latest game update
Mod definitely works and gave me a nice uplift at 75% of 4k with a 7900XT TUF card. It also fixes the godawful blurriness that appears on treetops and distant objects when using the normal resolution scales, instead of upscaling. Upscaling still has ugly ghosting on my TV, so I am still not using it. However, cutscenes randomly run at what looks like 30ish fps or sometimes less, while gameplay which is MORE graphically intensive runs pretty smoothly... I don't understand.
Well that sucks, but it sometimes feels the cutscene is running at even less than 30, kinda makes no sense and I have no idea what's going on. No peaks in utilization or anything, hmm... Regardless, other than this and the blocky fog in 1-2 cutscenes that I've seen, this is absolutely amazing work. Better than vanilla visuals at better performance is crazy. I can't thank you enough especially for fixing the weird distance-based aliasing/blurriness on trees, it was driving me NUTS. I'm gonna give your FSR version a go and see how bad the ghosting is. In vanilla it's absolutely INTOLERABLE. TSR or FSR, it looks so disgustingly bad it makes me wanna vomit. Absolutely no way I can use TAA, either. Just FXAA solely because of the awful ghosting. It looks like what it feels like to be hard liquor drunk. Frame generation makes it even worse - there's like an area of the screen that's a square that moves WITH James. It's so bad. What does graphics plus do? If your FSR fix is enough to mostly eliminate the disgusting ghosting, I could go for that. With the ultra quality engine file, I already get pretty damn stable 60, and very minor stutters sometimes, at 75% of 4k, so if I use FSRQ at 1440, I should possibly have the same-ish performance.
Amazing boost! I put this game down when they broke everything and performance was halved overnight, this easily brought me back up to 60-90 ish fps down from the 35-40 it is on vanilla :D
All right, so after extensive testing, I found that one bug is caused by this mod and it's a really terrible one. It happens regardless of upscaling used. Happens at native render res too. When you spin the camera around, reflections seem to sort of... lag behind it? They appear to be everywhere around you. They kinda behave like fog, as if they are "settling" in the air. Actually, fog does the exact same thing, sometimes even appears INSIDE. Hard to describe, but here is a screenshot:
Latest mod version, no RT, Epic preset, this happens regardless of upscaler, resolution, or AA method. I verified that this does NOT happen in vanilla, with Ultra plus or with the optimized tweaks pak mod. Only your engine.ini tweaks cause this, and it SUCKS because otherwise the performance gain from your tweaks is legitimately hugely important for me. my 7900XT hits only 50 fps with XESS Quality (found it ghosts less than FSR), but with your mod it's 59-60 at all times that I saw, other than some tiny hitches. I am on Linux, Steam version, and running under Proton, but it's definitely not a bug with Proton, it's specifically something in the tweaks that causes this.
Sir, I really did not understand how to download the mod. Is there a guide or video that explains to me how to download it correctly? Please help me , thanks
Hi im not sure what is going on, but when i go from using the Ultra Quality to Graphics Plus my Framerate remains the same identical im not sure why this is happening ?
@TheHybred Amazing mod. Hey, in some cutscenes like when you meet Maria movement of characters or the camera results in the fog behind them looking super blocky and broken, their hair also looks more dithered on some cutscenes vs vanilla. Is there any fix for this? Im on 1440p NAtive with the TXAA version of the mod maxed out. Also, could there be a way to enable DLSS FG on native without turning on dlss? Thanks
Im still seeing some really bad ghosting on native with txaa enabled when in the forest ot standing in front of grates, less than vanilla but still presists

The cutscenes are locked at 30 fps. They weren't like that for me before applying the mod.
