· As the mod disables the particles from even being generated, you should see an improved frame rate due to the disabled
particle generation freeing up processing cycles that would still be required if they were simply made invisible. ·_____________________________________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________________________________Installation Note
The Slums/Old Town map areas utilize the standard Data3.pak file for installation.
However, just as it is with my No Night Hunters mod, disabling the soot and dust in
The Countryside, Bozak Stadium and Prison DLC map areas requires non-standard installation.
As they are DLC areas and the files that are being modified are in the DLC pak files,
those maps require adding the mod's file(s) directly to those DLC pak files instead of
being installed via the standard Data3.pak file.
!!! Always make backup copies of official pak files being altered prior to installation.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 295 endorsements and over 6,400 downloads.
- Improves visibility and performance by removing distracting particle effects.
- Works across all maps and DLCs, so you get a consistent clean look.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2019, so it may not be compatible with newer game versions.
- Purely cosmetic – no gameplay changes, so if you want more than visual tweaks, skip it.
- Removing particles might alter the intended atmosphere in some areas, making them feel less gritty.
For Dying Light players who find the constant soot and dust particles annoying or performance-hitting, especially in the Slums and Old Town. If you're a purist who wants the original atmospheric effects, this mod isn't for you – it's purely a visual cleanup.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure your game version is 1.54.0 or earlier, as the mod may not work on newer patches.
- If you're using other visual mods, test this one first to see if it conflicts with their particle effects.
- Back up your original game files before installing, so you can revert if you don't like the change.
