📋 About This Mod

Want to make great screenshots? Want more fps? Don't want to lower your graphics settings? Then this is "mod" for you!

Hi, after years in this community, I want to tell you something:

1) Modders do work voluntarily and for free for you, so they probably deserve a little respect.

2) "Please" and "thanks" are magic words. "Endorse" is a clickable button.

3) When you treat modders like your servants and just keep asking for something, you only get the modders to stop publishing their work (as many good modders have already done) and you don't get anything.

4) And please check if the mod description confirms to be compatible to your game version, whether it's Classic 1. 32 or Next Gen 4. 04. Modders don't have time and resource to support both version.

This is not real mod. It's just a guide how to hide grass or trees. I discovered it thanks to KNGR and his great mod Deserts of Novigrad.

No trees and no grass (it'll give you about 20-30 fps)

Go to YourWitcher3Directory\bin\shaders\speedtree\shaders_directx11 and remove all files except:

Billboard_do_ps.fx11obj

Billboard_ps.fx11obj

Billboard_shadowcast_vs.fx11obj

Billboard_vs.fx11obj

No trees only (it'll give you about 10-20 fps)

Go to YourWitcher3Directory\bin\shaders\speedtree\shaders_directx11 and remove all files except:

Billboard_do_ps.fx11obj

Billboard_ps.fx11obj

Billboard_shadowcast_vs.fx11obj

Billboard_vs.fx11obj

Grass_ps.fx11obj

Grass_shadowcast_ps.fx11obj

Grass_shadowcast_vs.fx11obj

Grass_vs.fx11obj

No grass only (it'll give you about 10 fps)

Go to YourWitcher3Directory\bin\shaders\speedtree\shaders_directx11 and remove:

Grass_ps.fx11obj

Grass_shadowcast_ps.fx11obj

Grass_shadowcast_vs.fx11obj

Grass_vs.fx11obj

Just some trees (it'll give you only about 5-10 fps, but it looks very nice especially in Toussaint)

Go to YourWitcher3Directory\bin\shaders\speedtree\shaders_directx11 and remove:

facing_leaves_ps.fx11obj

facing_leaves_shadowcast_ps.fx11obj

facing_leaves_shadowcast_vs.fx11obj

facing_leaves_vs.fx11obj

FacingLeaves_ps.fx11obj

FacingLeaves_shadowcast_ps.fx11obj

FacingLeaves_shadowcast_vs.fx11obj

FacingLeaves_vs.fx11obj

Backup files are in download section. It's only for Classic 1. 32

I discovered another good trick to reduce image tearing if you don't want to compromise on your claims in graphic setting.In user.settings (In Documents), manually edit FPSLimit=48. Witcher 3 just loves 48 fps. :-D (in game you will see fps set to Unlimited - do not change this, if you change that, you will need to edit user.settings again)

Use this: No Trees No Collisions
