About this mod

An Ultra level graphics tweak that increases LOD for trees and buildings, offers better reflections, shadows and eye adaptation with optional forced Raytracing and binaural audio.

Permissions and credits
Update 3.0: Significant improvements to performance, some settings have been simplified (still lossless), improvements to eye adaptation and now includes volumetric cloud improvements. Now only 1 version with sections and detailed notes if you don't want every feature. As requested, a read-only engine.ini file instead of a .pak.

This mod aims to give Ultra level visuals with optimized performance. LOD for foliage and buildings are improved along with reflections/shadows, volumetric clouds and eye adaptation. Raytracing is enabled/forced and working as intended (can easily be removed as well). Binaural audio has been enabled which allows for better directional audio and reverb, etc.

Installation: Extract .zip and copy Engine.ini to your Stalker 2 app data folder:


Xbox/Game Pass version:

%localappdata%\Stalker2\Saved\Config\WinGDK

Steam & GOG versions:

%localappdata%\Stalker2\Saved\Config\Windows

Make sure file is marked as "Read-Only" (should be already)


To Uninstall delete the Engine.ini file and the game will recreate its default one on next launch.


Compatibility: Not compatible with any Engine.ini tweak mods including Optimized Tweaks and Ultra Plus.
