📋 About This Mod
This version of FUS is modified to be more performance intensive. It is tuned to maintain full 90 fps without reprojection for an RTX 5090 when using the Quest 3 with Virtual Desktop on Godlike quality and using Open Composite and the VDXR runtime.
The main differences to FUS are:
- Instead of using Happly Little Trees, it uses Fabled Forests (which uses HLT assets but places more trees) and Aspens Ablaze. The default is the vanilla sized version, but I also provide the standard Fabled Forests and bigger Aspens Ablaze, which cost some extra performance and are rather big, so they may obscure vistas etc. But it feels kinda nice, too, so you choose :)
- Dyndolod has only high settings and high quality 3D tree LODs. It looks amazing in the distance, it's actually difficult to see where the LOD trees begin!
- Ultra ini setting by default, higher grass density, longer shadow distance and higher shadow resolution, animated trees, everything simply tuned up. There's an "Insane" ini in the tools folder on top for those who really like to torture their cards or have different res HMDs.
- Higher resolution textures wherever I could find them. Thanks to Matts_Gameroom from the FUS discord! :)
- Slightly improved ice setup (Glacierslab glaciers with Icy Mesh Remaster and Icy Caves Remaster) with a focus on matching LODs and subtle fantasy backlighting. It's more of a preference than an improvement, hence here and not in FUS.
- Security Overhaul because it was a bit too fluff for FUS but fine here.
- Azurite Weathers - Alluring Sunsets and Sunrises because it is a bit too fluff for FUS but fine here.
This version is really only meant for high-end PCs. Depending on your tolerance of projection or lowered resolution etc it might run on upper mid-tier systems, too. But you can easily test performance by using FUS: If you use my CANGAR profile, high DynDOLOD settings, and the high in settings from the tools folder (copy them into the CANGAR profile), and you STILL think you can do some more, then FUS-heavy is for you. Otherwise, it is not.
It's my personal profile and you can of course deselect gameplay options if you want, but I won't maintain different profiles here and it won't be officially supported on the discord. But other than the changes above it is FUS.
I want to especially thank H☬SE from the Mad God Overhaul server for the very constructive discussions and the pointer to Fabled Forests and Glacierslab!

FUS Heavy is a performance-intensive VR modlist for Skyrim VR, tuned for RTX 5090 with Quest 3 and Virtual Desktop at Godlike quality. It enhances graphics with Fabled Forests, Aspens Ablaze, high DynDOLOD settings, ultra INI, and higher resolution textures, plus ice and weather improvements. Aimed at high-end PC users seeking maximum visual fidelity.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Pushes visuals to the max—perfect for those with top-tier hardware like an RTX 5090
- The DynDOLOD high settings make distant trees look incredible, hard to spot where LODs kick in
- Comes with extra goodies like Security Overhaul and Azurite Weathers that add depth without bloat
⚠️ Cons
- Performance-hungry by design—only for high-end PCs, so mid-range rigs will struggle
- The bigger tree options can obscure vistas, which might annoy players who like open views
- Since it's a modlist variant, compatibility with other mods could be tricky if you add your own
For VR Skyrim players with beastly GPUs (think RTX 5090) who want the absolute best visuals without reprojection. If you're on a mid-tier system or prefer performance over eye candy, stick with the base FUS. This is for those who want to push their Quest 3 and Virtual Desktop setup to the limit.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have Open Composite and the VDXR runtime installed, as the mod is tuned for that setup.
- Test performance with the base FUS first using the CANGAR profile and high DynDOLOD settings to see if your PC can handle it.
- If you have a different headset resolution, try the 'Insane' INI in the tools folder to adjust settings.
