About this mod Machine translation
Grid fixing greatly reduces draw on Dwemer Steam, Sphere, and Spider Centurions.
What is a lottery call?
--------------------------------
In short: Draw-Call is the number of objects the game has to render in-game. at the same time.
Why do we need to fix it?
---------------------------------
Each .nif format mesh can contain multiple different subgrids or subshapes.
Each of these subgrids is treated as 1 separate object by the renderer.
So, for example, a .nif with 14 NiTriShapes will put more stress on your hardware than a .nif with 2 NiTriShapes (*all other properties being equal). Necessary.
So I simply "solve"
Number of questions with NiTriShapes: Before -> After
-------------------------------------------------- --------
Steam Centurion：15-> 1
Sphere Centurion：42-> 1
Spider Centurion 14-> 1
How much performance improvement can we expect?
-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------
I don't really know if there will be a significant impact on performance, but logic suggests that doing so might save some fps if there are a lot of these mechanics in the scene.
This mod is free, takes no .esp slot, and may improve performance. It should be easy.
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.
