(You only need to do this once. You don't need to do it for each updates)

Overwrite files if asked (it will only overwrite previous versions of this mod)

Use advanced graphics menu to change it.

(eg: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\KingdomComeDeliverance")

FAQ / TROUBLESHOOTING

=====================

Q: How to override OGP settings ?

To override OGP settings, write your console commands within Mods\optimized_graphic_presets\ogp_override.cfg

(I chose this filename over user.cfg so it won't cause issue for users with an old user.cfg from an outdated OGP version)

Q: How to fix "blocky pixels" ?

Set an higher global illumination setting, or choose "baked".

Q: How to disable native fullscreen auto-switch ?

Delete Mods\optimized_graphic_presets\Data\force_native_fullscreen.pak

Q: How to disable hotkeys ?

Delete Mods\optimized_graphic_presets\Data\hotkeys.pak

Q: Why does advanced settings menu have "Controls" title ?

It's the only way to display more buttons in the menu.

- FIX: texture button is now bound to correct cvargroup.

- NEW: Added German translation (thanks to Ravick)

- MOD: Exec ogp_override.cfg at start, before loading screen (some settings may or may not require to be set before assets/level loading).

- FIX: Removed ogp_override.cfg file from the zip, so it won't be overwritten when updating the mod.

- FIX: Simple graphics now correctly applies texture settings (except for low and ugly).

- MOD: better perf for volumetric fog (~6% more fps compared to previous setting)

- MOD: enabled volfog for high and ultra global presets

- NEW: 'ogp_override.cfg' is executed after loading/applying ogp settings.

- NEW: Replaced profile switch hotkeys in favor of an "instant boost" on(np1) and off (np0) hotkeys

- NEW: Enhanced (better looking) volumetric fog (disabled by default).

- MOD: Optimized weather profile: rain costs ~3% FPS less and drops are smaller.

- MOD: Added choice for the 3 vanilla weather profiles

- MOD: Reduced water choices to only one (other choices cost up to 5% FPS more without any visual difference).

- MOD: Increased object view distance for medium preset

- MOD: Right arrow key now enforces native fullscreen (just like D) for left-handers.

- FIX: Texture button's value is now always correct.

- NEW/FIX: Texture settings is now correctly applied (also fixes "texture setting stuck at lowest" bug)

• MOD: Simplified menu: no more confirmations. Makes flowSHARTs a bit less unmanageable... Plus actionscript behavior isn't the same in every menu anyway...
