Some mods to "increase" your graphics and yet drastically increase your FPS! Recommended for potatoes (Dx9)
Well, here is. Only graphic mods, with nothing else. This is my personal configuration. I think it looks pretty good. I know it is not very relevant, but this is aimed at those people who have a PC-Potato (DX9), increasing 20 or 30 fps in the best cases and best of all, everything will look much more beautiful than before!
Before continuing, I am not the author of these accessories. All credits go to their respective creators. The accessories list will be at the end.
The screenshots are in R2 (basic DX9). If you have a low -income PC like me, you will notice a very large change graphically and without losing FPS. You will even win them, since classic textures occupy much less memory.
Regarding the R2_gloss_min, I don't know how it will be seen in DX10/11. For me, 0.7 in DX9 it is just what I want. Everything looks very humid and muddy, as if they were puddles and pleases me. However, I do not use sunny climates. In those climates, everything will look very bright with 0.7, so if you are not going to use "gloomy and rainy mode" optional, I recommend the original value of R2_Gloss_min that in Enhanced Shaders it is 0.5
Features:
1) Enhanced Shaders and Color Grading and Dynamic Time-Based Tonemap Extended. Now everything looks much more real, basically. And no, Enhanced Shaders no problems in DX9.
2) Classic textures (foliage, terrain and textures) Thanks to this, the increase in FPS is very considerable and everything looks much more natural and beautiful.
3) OPTIONAL - Tropical climates removed, say goodbye to Farcry 3. Now the thick mist, the bleak skies And the intense storms will make the area a more humid, miserable and depressive place. If you like the gloomy and rainy weather, this is for you! No more sunny shots in the morning while you smoke weed with those of Freedom. (Own modification)
ATTENTION: The climatic mod is outdated. If you want the new version, visit this link Moddb
Some captures of my game:
I clarify that these screenshots are made in DX11 R4 Full graphics, since I updated my PC, but I am still using the same commands (lights and shadows, saturation... basically) so your game should look very similar to these screenshots. I couldn't recover the screenshots in DX9, sorry.
So that your game is seen as in the images, introduce these commands:
r2_gloss_factor 0.001
r2_gloss_min 0.7
r2_sun_lumscale 3.0
r2_tonemap on
r2_tonemap_adaptation 3.0
r2_tonemap_middlegray 1.75
r2_tnmp_onoff 0
r2_sunshafts_min 0.02
r2_sunshafts_mode combined
r2_sunshafts_value 0.8
r__color_grading 0.5, 0.5, 0.5
r__exposure 1.0
r__gamma 0.8
r__optimize_dynamic_geom 3
r__optimize_shadow_geom on
r__optimize_static_geom 3
r__saturation 2.0
rs_c_brightness 1.0
rs_c_contrast 1.0
rs_c_gamma 0.8
shader_param_1 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 0.0
shader_param_2 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.03
shader_param_3 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 0.0
shader_param_4 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, -0.2
The following commands are constantly altered:
r2_sun_lumscale_amb
r2_sun_lumscale_hemi
r2_tnmp_exposure
r2_tnmp_gamma
r2_tonemap_amount
r2_tonemap_lowlum
This is because some mods included here, change them according to the time of day in the area. Do not modify them.
If you do not get the same vibration of colors as in my captures, I recommend using the VibranceGUI program. Use a value of 150 and you will have it.
Installation:
1) Folders are well ordered, I don't think it is necessary to clarify. Just be sure to erase the Appdata/Shaders_Cache shader cache.
2) If you like the cold and stormy climate, I recommend using the optional mode that is added.
I recommend executing the CFG of Enhanced Shaders on the console, to ensure that it has been applied: cfg_load grading_default.ltx
Now, the mods it contains. All credits are aimed at their authors. Thank you for creating these fantastic mods!

Sorry for the English of Cavernicola, this is Google Translate!
Выглядит очень не плохо, стоит попробовать.
Заметил аддон "Enhanced Shaders and Color Grading" он вроде проблемный на DX9. Автором указано что DX10+.
The author points it out, but in reality I never noticed any problem in DX9 either in the PBR, the Cubemaps or the color gradation. In fact, everything looks more beautiful and real.
Ща позырим, пощупаем...
Запустил на 1.5.2 (думаю с 1.5.1 аналогично) Проблема с переводом в игре. Русский язык теперь не работает. Всё в не понятных символах. (видимо не тот юникод). Слишком близкий Fov. А так всё вроде как работает.
Eliminate the file from db/addons/*delete file* to solve the language.
For FOV, I suppose it will be for the mod Position & View v1.9.4.
I use FOV 90 and HUD_FOV 0.6
Version 1.5.1.2 is not a ******* thing, the file was named like that due to it being reuploaded.
I do not know it, I just say that I have not updated 1.5.2 and I am not sure if you will have a block. The creators themselves recommend not using outdated Addons.
На 1.5.2 всё работает отлично. Язык удалось исправить удалением localization.ltx из вашего архива. Спасибо за мод)
Thanks. I will add it to the description.
(buried)
This changes nothing about the fact there is no 1.5.1.2, it's still only 1.5.1, the file was renamed as it was a copy, you will just confuse more people with this.
Corrected, sir!
You're right, but maybe seethe a little less hard about it next time? Giving the correct info is good, but doing it like you're about to ask to see their manager is not.
нету русского языка в меню
В файле localization.ltx замени на language = eng или удали сам этот файл.
Что касается конфликта с русским языком заметил в localization.ltx вы заменили параметр языка eng. Это и стало причиной) Хорошо бы решить это для комфорта аудитории)
You're right. As soon as I can, I will solve it.
Spanish translation has been eliminated and localization.ltx has been restored. It should work now.
можно по точнее что именно удалить чтоб был русский язык в меню? а то ни какой конкретики
В папке мода data\gamedata\configs удали файл localization.ltx
Я так решил проблему
the textures are too glossy, it looks like it's always wet even if it's a dry weather, i think it's from the enhanced shaders
You should read the description, comrade. You can always lower the gloss on your console, I think I remember that by default in ES is 0.5
(buried)
idiots ruining modpack scores again...
tbh there should be an auto-ban for this
Hahaha I just realized it. It does not matter. At least I hope to help those people who have a slow PC.
What folders to install to get only graphics?
Talking about folders would be cumbersome, since there are many merged mods, but check the list of mods used.
Yea... I play in DX9 and I would like to get only the graphics without the rest of the Addons ... it would be great.
It is a good idea. I will try to do it soon.
would be great. thanks.
First excuse my english. I am Brazilian. secondly, I didn't rate your mod because I only rate it after it's downloaded and tested. I'm downloading your mod right now as I write to test it out. but I can give you a tip: the guys gave a low score because I already understood that people hate not having freedom to choose which mods they are going to use and many do not know how to move in the folders and remove which mods they do not want (as I am going to remove all mods that don't touch the graphics, I just want the graphics on the screens) my advice is that you make a version only of the graphics as someone there has already asked. because they are the ones that call attention... the people already know the others and use them and are afraid of causing a lot of conflict because of that. That's why they give a low rating right away ..which I think is unfair...but that's the reality. anyway, congratulations for your good will and effort.
Yes I think you are right. I will try to do that.
Does this work with Boomsticks?
did worked for me tho
Boomsticks Only Includes Gunplay Features Mechanics, Not Visual. If you Want Something That Improve Performance try BaS Performance 1K. I put Link Here Moddb.com
be careful, as boomsticks uses a specific FOV for the guns to work right, do not use FOV 90 as the author says, as this could make boomsticks to not work well :)
Well, I have summarized the file and now it only contains the graphic mods you see in screenshots. Also, optionally, add the "bleak & rainy" mode in case you are one of those who hate to play Stalker with the weather as if you were in Cancun. I hope that all those people with potato PCs can now have a better experience playing this great game, increasing their FPS and giving them a sense of incredible graphics! :)
Yes there is some mistake, please, notify it. Thanks!
Thanks man, downlodaing and I will try it
Thank you very much
Можно узнать, что за размытости по краям экрана? Что за модификация?
it's a shader effect when you turn on hud overlay. it's kinda buggy though, it greatly affects your fps
No funciona con BaS pero buen mod!
Doesn't work with BaS but nice mod!
I did everything as instructed but my game looks nothing like the screenshots :/ I ran it on DX9 basic, replaced the gamedata, appdata and db files with the ones from the mod, deleted the shader cache from the launcher and finally wrote every single command. But my game end up looking super dark with very little graphical improvement. Am i doing something wrong? I will appreciate any help. And i use 1.5.2 by the way.
"Just tried it in 1.5.1 and the same result.
I just updated this and add commands that I had forgotten, I'm sorry but I was tired last night. Try them now and do not forget to run the CFG of ES on the console. If the problem persists, delete the shader cache.
hey, what's the proccess to follow to run CFG of ES on console? I don't know what it is
Copy and paste this on the game console:
cfg_load grading_default
Press ENTER
works with dx8? my potato cant handle dx9 with negative fps
ES just works on DX9 onwards so I doubt it. However, the other mods maybe if they work. I will see if I can do something about it
