Performance Boost for Potato PC
🎮 Module function
Unlocks advanced settings options tailored for low-end computers, providing 2 optional files to completely disable shadows, fog, and reflection effects. The unlocked settings are especially optimized for low-end computers. For example, the minimum grass LOD value can be set to -1 to completely disable grass rendering.
📸 Effect display
The screenshots are based on 1440x900 borderless mode, with the original minimum settings on the left and the optimized settings of the module on the right. There is room for further performance improvements in the modded version, as the minimum settings are not actually used.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
