📋 About This Mod

CRYSTAL GOLEMS

My optimized textures by Xtudo

Description

My optimized textures for this amazing mod.

  • []Three options available: 4K (optimized original size), 2K and 1K.

    []4K for example (the same pixel size than the original files), has the same image quality, with half the VRAM usage and half the file size. Thus reducing CTD chances, loading times and stuttering. Remember that the game load thousands of textures at the same time, so everything counts.

    []No ESP,  so it's fine to install or uninstall at any time.

    I made it for my game and now I'm sharing it, I hope you like it.

    Requirements

    • []Crystal Golems -Mihail Monsters and Animals (SE-AE version) (''dark souls'').

      - LE version here.

        • []To Mihail and to my lovely Patreons and supporters.
