📋 About This Mod
Brings high resolution shadows to all characters of the game.
Updated and uploaded with the permission of rmemr.
Original mod for old gen is Lip Movement and HiRes Shadows.
I decided to separate the high resolution shadows from the mimic fixes as the former is likely performance taxing. People who are only interested in the latter might not want the hi-res shadows at the same time, hence the separation.
Note that the lip movement fix is no longer required for next gen, but you can find the fix for mimics played on dead bodies here: Dead Mimics Fix - Next Gen
Content of the mod:
The mod enables a flag for higher resolution shadows like used in dialogue scenes for every new npc. This is mostly a subtle self shadowing improvement, see screenshots (all vanila with freecam).
May or may not dip the FPS - I haven't noticed/tested. But since the changes are subtle anyway (you have to know where to look for them in normal gameplay) and you really, really seem to care so much about graphical fidelity - well, test and decide for yourself.
Installation:
Simply unzip the file and copy paste the directory modHiResShadows to the Mods folder located in your game installation.
