📋 About This Mod

Recommended config for real-visual exaggeration lovers.

.... _ - REAL TRACING SETTINGS - _ ....

This Engine.ini modification is perfect for those who love a realistic experience translated into a game. This mod not only boosts graphics quality, also fixes many visual inconsistencies and graphical glitches caused by the default limitations of the UE5 Engine, making this game a visual BOMB for your eyes and your FPS.

It enhances unique visual quality: detailed real-time shadows and lighting. high-quality LODs, lumen reflections, lumen global illumination, lumen AO, lumen translucency, very high-quality details, new Niagara particles, and many more features combined with real-time effects thanks to the lumen system and ray tracing built into the UE5 Engine.

| ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

I don't recommend this mod for low-end or mid-range computers, it applies very high-quality ray tracing (Lumen); this will significantly impact your FPS depending on your components (you'll lose 10-20 FPS). Even so, this configuration file provides optimizations to the engine, texture loading, VRAM, and greater stability for smoother gameplay.

Lower the quality settings for Shadows, Hair, Fog, Reflections, and Particles from Epic to High, or at most to Medium, in the game settings.

These settings are already modified in Engine.ini, and having them set to Epic in the graphics settings will result in an unnecessary FPS drops.

A 12GB VRAM RTX 4000+ series graphics card, Frame Generation and DLSS are required for an optimal experience.

You can combine this Engine.ini file with visual mods such as PRZ and Reshade Presets to further enhance the visual quality.

I recommend using this mod in conjunction with PRZ - PHOTOREALISTIC ZONE 2. 1 (Complete Installation).
