Far Object LOD Improvement Project

Description

Far Object LOD Improvement Project (FOLIP) adds missing LOD models for objects that don't currently have them, and replaces many of the vanilla LOD models in the game with higher quality versions. The vanilla game has 4,446 LOD models. FOLIP has more than 5,000 LOD models. Using this mod significantly improves visuals and eliminates pop-in of objects at very little performance cost. Some models included:

• []Barges and boats[/]

  []Billboards and signs[/]

  []Boulders[/]

  []Buses[/]

  []Cars[/]

  []Construction Equipment[/]

  []Diner and Drive-in[/]

  []Windmills[/]

  []Roads[/]

  []Shacks and Junk Walls[/]

  []Shipping Crates[/]

  []Sidewalks[/]

  []Train Engines[/]

  []Train Tracks[/]

  []Trucks[/]

  []Vertibirds[/]

  []... and much, much, more![/]

  Before:

  Installation

  Install and activate like any other mod. By itself, the main file does nothing. You must regenerate Object LOD using FO4LODGen to see the added objects.

  If you are uncomfortable or experience issues generating yourself, there is now an optional Pregenerated Object LOD file that can be used. Generating your own LOD will be more performance friendly, mod compatible, and look better, but this gets you very close without having to do all the extra legwork.

  Recommended LOD INI Settings

  These are my recommended Fallout4Prefs.ini TerrainManager settings. This will increases performance, and eliminates other LOD issues. These settings will be loaded automatically if using Addictol.
