📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros

- RTGI brings realistic lighting that makes Valheim's world pop without altering gameplay.
- Simple to install if you're familiar with ReShade — just drop files and go.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in February 2021 — may not work with the latest Valheim patches.
- Requires ReShade and possibly RTGI shaders, which aren't included in the mod — you'll need to grab them separately.
- Performance hit is real — RTGI is demanding, so expect lower FPS on mid-range rigs.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Valheim players who want a visual overhaul with realistic lighting and don't mind a performance cost. If you're running a high-end PC and want to make the world look stunning, this is for you. Skip if you're on a low-end system or prefer vanilla graphics.

💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have ReShade installed and configured before adding this mod — the mod itself doesn't include the ReShade framework.
- Test the preset in different biomes (Meadows, Black Forest, Swamp) to adjust brightness and contrast — lighting varies a lot.
- If you experience crashes after a Valheim update, check for a newer version or disable the mod until it's updated.
