📋 About This Mod
Just a quicky fix for those still having issues with frame rates while in Oblivion dungeons. This mod completely removes non-damaging fog effects from interior dungeon cells, which eliminates much of the stuttering on lower end PCs. Personally, I saw around a 30-50 FPS increase in those problem areas. Also included is a \"Lite\" option that only removes the more dense fog. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FPS examples while standing in fog on my PC Unmodded - 21 FPS Modded \"Lite\" - 45 FPS Modded \"Main\" - 73 FPS --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Posted an extreme example of FPS gain in the images above. Posted a screenshot of the \"Lite\" option. The \"Lite\" option is avalible by downloading the 1. 1 version.
