NieR: Automata: better textures, better LOD, uncapped loading screens, 8K shadows (+on grass)
Link to FAR 0.10.1 dumped from Special K's Discord since the public version is outdated for the time being: https://mega.nz/file/PwBEGZYB#j-8kwedi7_l-pLCRUez17IZuifIynJxzO4Ig_gF0XRE
This is a mod showcase of the game running with the latest versions of SpecialK, HD Texture Pack, and LodMod on a GTX 1080 Ti and Ryzen 3800X at 1440p, installed on an NVMe SSD.
The game is massively GPU bottlenecked in all scenarios, the CPU was showing less than 50% utilization on my graph with SMT off, so if you have a better GPU than the 1080 Ti you can definitely have better performance.
0:00 My optimized settings
2:36 8K shadows + shadows on grass and props
4:24 Previous settings + much higher terrain LOD values + no loading screens animation
11:41 Back to my optimized settings to have good framerates on my old gen GPU :)
