📋 About This Mod

FEATURES
  • []New high-poly tree models for enhanced realism.

[]Denser and more varied grass, such as ferns in forested areas and tall grass on plains.

[]Gradually sharpened textures through MIP-mapping.

[]Visible terrain features at a distance, like ground relief and details.

[]New textures for grass, trees, bushes, and reeds, rendered for greater visual quality.

[]Six selectable styles: default, green, autumn, dry, rotten, and dead.

[]Per-area style customization: each region can have its own visual theme.

[]New ground textures with fixed bump maps and proper specular intensity.

DIFFERENCES BETWEEN LITE AND FULL VERSIONLimitations:

  • []Reduced vegetation density; no new trees or bushes added. The number of trees is similar to vanilla, but with high-poly models replacing the originals. Some new trees have been added only along the map edges.

Benefits:
  • []Slightly better performance due to fewer polygons being processed.

    []No need to start a new game.

    []Broad compatibility with almost all mods.

This mod is perfect for players seeking a visually enhanced Shadow of Chernobyl experience without compromising performance or gameplay, while maintaining full compatibility with the Gunslinger Addon.
