RE4R Graphics Enhancement

RE4R Graphics Enhancement

Resident Evil 4 Remake mods that unlocks and improves several graphics settings the base game either hides or limits. Everything is controlled from a clean in-game menu under the REFramework overlay Script UI.

General

• []Image Post Processing — Toggle post-processing effects on or off.[/]

  []Better SSS Diffusion — Improves subsurface scattering for more realistic skin and organic materials.[/]

• []Shadow Quality — Directly controls the shadow quality tier, up to "Highest (4)", for significantly sharper and more detailed shadows without touching in-game settings.[/]

  []Shadow Resolution — Push shadow map resolution up to Ultra (4096). Note: this will increase VRAM usage noticeably.[/]

  []Shadow Variance Scale — Controls shadow softness via variance-based filtering. Lower = harder, sharper edges. Higher = softer shadows with less aliasing but more light bleeding. Toggle off restores engine default.[/]

  []Contact Shadows — Enables true contact shadows, adding fine close-up shadowing on surfaces and characters that the default settings often disable or soften.[/]

• []Better Character LOD — Keeps character models at the same highest quality mesh used in cutscenes at all times. Applies to Leon, Ashley, Luis, Ada, and Mercenaries characters.[/]

• []FidelityFX SSSR — Enables AMD FidelityFX Stochastic Screen Space Reflections.[/]

  []SSR Full Resolution — Enables full resolution SSR rendering instead of the default half resolution.[/]

  []SSR Disable Vignetting — Disables the SSR edge-fade so reflections no longer fade out near screen borders.[/]

  []SSR Depth Thickness — Depth tolerance for SSR ray-vs-depth-buffer hit testing.[/]

  []SSR Max Traversal Intersections — Maximum ray-march intersections for SSR traces. Higher values allow reflections to reach further at higher cost.[/]

  []SSR Roughness Limit — Maximum surface roughness that still receives SSR.[/]

[]SSAO Enabled — Master toggle for the SSAO pass.[/]

[]SSAO Algorithm — Selects the SSAO algorithm. Temporal reduces noise via history but can introduce ghosting when geometry or camera changes quickly.[/]

[]SSAO Sample Quality — Controls the AO sample budget. Higher quality reduces noise and banding at higher GPU cost.[/]

[]AO Bias — Depth bias for AO sampling. Adjusts self-occlusion sensitivity.[/]

[]AO Intensity — Overall AO darkening intensity.[/]

[]AO Radius — Sampling radius for SSAO. Larger radius produces broader, softer occlusion.[/]
