📋 About This Mod

General:

Enabled - mod toggle.

Exclude Interiors - disables changes in interiors (important in big modlists)

Level Of Detail - level of detail changes toggle (if enabled - scales with the setting below).

Draw Distance - draw distance of architecture and decorations.

Separate Categories:

Lights - draw distance of lights.

Decals - draw distance of projected textures (e.g. cracks, dirt, wetness and so on).

Terrain - level of detail of terrain tiles.

Debris - draw distance of objects procedurally scattered on the ground (e.g. cardboards, paper trash, food and so on).

Roads - level of detail of roads.

Ray Tracing Specific:

Culling Offset - Adjust only if: you use RT/PT and higher draw distance values but experience lighting/shadows flickering. Lower it until the issue resolves. Keep in mind that this is a trade-off. The lower the value, the smaller the distance at which objects behind the camera are visible. Culling Offset 200 - default game value, also used for mod's default settings. Demonstration

Additional info:

  • []Compatible with my Improved LOD mods. They do different things.[/]

    []Changing settings requires a save reload. Culling Offset is an exception.[/]

    []Default settings are configured with RT/PT in mind. Higher settings can cause shadows flickering (area dependant). You'll have to adjust "Culling Offset".[/]

    []Should not be used in combination with other draw distance mods.[/]

    []Multiple or heavy location altering mods can result in crashes or lighting/shadows flickering when this mod is enabled. Either reduce mod settings or adjust Culling Offset. [/]

    []Ultra+ compatibility is under the question as this mod is in active development with major changes and additions every so often. Consider it incompatible unless it's author says otherwise.[/]

    []Before reporting an issue, please make sure to test the mod and it's requirements separately to exclude things mentioned above.[/]
