📋 About This Mod
RE9 Graphics Enhancement
Resident Evil Requiem ships with a maximum in-game RT setting of High. This mod breaks that ceiling — pushing raster quality further, improving RT visuals across the board, and squeezing out a little extra quality from path tracing as well. Everything is tuned from a clean in-game menu under the REFramework Script UI.
Important Note
When installing the mod for the first time, make sure to open the REFramework menu, script generated UI tab, and hit the Default button on first boot to ensure all settings are applied correctly.
The same applies when switching to path tracing in the in-game settings — hit the Default button again after switching to make sure everything is set correctly for the PT pipeline.
General
-
[]Image Post Processing — Toggles the entire post-processing stack including bloom, tone mapping, color grading, and lens effects. Disabling produces a raw, unprocessed image.[/]
[]Better SSS Diffusion — Enables improved subsurface scattering using a higher-quality algorithm with internal denoising and normal alignment. Requires Subsurface Scattering to be enabled in game settings.[/]
[]Disable Film Grain — Disables the film grain overlay for a cleaner image.[/]
[]Texture Quality — Quality preset for texture rendering. Higher values load higher-resolution textures at a higher memory cost.[/]
[]Mesh Quality — Controls geometry complexity and detail level for rendered objects.[/]
[]Transparent Buffer Quality — Quality preset for the transparent buffer rendering pass.[/]
-
[]Shadow Preset — Controls both Shadow Quality and Shadow Resolution together. Higher presets improve shadow sharpness and coverage at higher VRAM cost.[/]
[]Shadow Variance Scale — Scales variance-based shadow filtering softness. Higher values soften shadows and reduce aliasing but can increase light bleeding. Default: 1. 0. Toggle off to restore it.[/]
[]Enhanced Contact Shadow — Provides broader screen-space shadow coverage around characters and objects at small distances. Enhances contact shadowing where traditional shadow maps miss fine detail.[/]
-
[]SSR Full Resolution — Enables full resolution SSR rendering instead of the default half resolution.[/]
[]SSR Resolve Point — Sample count for the SSR resolve pass. Higher values smooth rough-surface reflections.[/]
[]SSAO Control Type — Selects the SSAO algorithm variant. XeGTAO is a higher-quality temporal accumulation approach.[/]
[*]SSAO Full Resolution — Enables full resolution SSAO instead of th
