Just started playing blood and wine your grass mod is the best but i was like the view distance in BW was horrible so I went into rendering/speedtree user setting and turned grassdistantscale to 6 and just made your mod more amazing and couldn't believe no performance lost.If people are having same problem thought maybe you could add this to your tweak section really made your mod shine even more never could turn that setting up before without melting my pc lol.thx for your great work!I also followed your other tweaks.I have did further testing this tweak is only needed in Bw other lands are ok and may kill performance but works fine in BW maybe a patch will fix this.Hope helps someone.
lols, because you are using the wrong grass, you are using optional Blood and Wine grass in Velen in the actual Blood and wine area, it does nothing to change anything. What you have done is to reduce the grass that is already there from 2400 to 400 and extended the view distance to 6. You basically compensated the thickness of the grass for the distance thinking that it changed no FPS.
lol, TRY the same thing with the second version (the one without DLC) and see your PC burn and explode when you set it to 6, that grass actually does change the grass in Toussaint.
I got 2 GTx980 TI's in sli and they literally s#*! themselves with anything more than 1.8 for grass distance and anything more than 400 for standard grass (one without DLC)
Try this instead and tell me what you think , ZERO FPS hit but you should see a drastic difference.
GrassRingSize=268435456 (4 times the max, regulates the thickness of the grass)
GrassGenerationEfficiency=0.001(regulates the placement of the grass)
GrassDensity=400 (how dense the area full of grass becomes, biggest visible difference but also big FPS hit) <--- that one is upto you, big fps hit beyond that though as opposed to the other two.
Edit: I like it. On my mod page I added an additional "Grass420" option to my Supreme-Ultimate In-Game Graphics Option add on that will achieve these setting via in game graphic option so you don't have to manually edit your own ini. If you want to use. It does push out grass distance beyond my Ultimate setting a bit though due to lowering grass density not as much of a FPS hit. http://www.nexusmods.com/witcher3/mods/1494/?
The strange thing is my fps didn't drop very much (5-7fps) which is acceptable. But experience severe flickering. Grass density: 2400 GrassRingSize=4194304 GrassGenerationEfficiency=0.075 FOV=60 HBAO+ E3FX Ultimate I really really don't want to lower density.
So i installed the 420 Grass Supreme to Extreme Graphics mod, but it seems when i go above Ultra Grass Density, i get vanilla grass again. But if it's at Ultra or below, i get 420 Grass! Is this supposed to happen?
KNGR. Many thanks for this mod. For me it is simply "A Masterpiece". I'm running an Asus Zen-Book Pro I.7 And Geoforce GTX 960. With 48 mods installed can run the game on "Ultra",but I have grass density on high Screen resolution around 2500. Never has my game looked better. And Ultra Grass is "The Icing On The Cake" :-) Many Thxs Once Again and keep up the great work.
Dont see Ultra Grass 420 in settings...just Ultra+. cant even tell the difference between High, Ultra and Ultra + is this compat with the DX11 version of v4.04 or just DX12? DX12 is crap. everyone should be running this game on DX11 if they arent using 4090 with RTX. DX11 average 70-120fps Ultra+ 1440p. DX12 average 30-50fps Ultra+ 1440p.
After testing every grass mods available, this is my comparison with FPS: https://imgur.com/a/8hPApHS More comparison (Lighting match, FPS match): https://imgur.com/a/HM7CSvc TL:DR > DON'T USE GRASS TEXTURE MODS (Everything else works).
Can we have better compatibily with lighting mods for the dlc grass version ? Its beautiful ! But compatibility is minimal ,grass shouldnt conflict with light mods

Edit: Now I haven't tried higher with this mod yet going higher so not sure if its the same. (using DLC version)
