About this mod Machine translation
- Improve the performance of realistic water two. 2. Improve vanilla water and its lighting.
2 options
- Improved the performance of Real Water 2 using the new bc7 format
95% looks to be 30% of VRAM.
You probably won't notice the visual difference.
But those on the edge of VRAM will gain a little fps. Save ~70 mb Vram.
If you have an 11GB Geforce TITAN, you probably won't get fps.
need:
realistic water 2
- Improve vanilla water and its lighting. No more blocky mirrors on the water. "white reflection on water"
This is basically this mod, with the new and better VRAM save BC7 format for better compression, appearance and smaller file size.
Modified Vanilla Water - Not required
Saves you 3x VRAM
Vanilla: 2 x 2,7 mb = 5.4 mb looks like shit
Xerus: 2 x 16,7mb = 33,4 mb looks great
New file format: 2 x 5,4mb = 10,8 mb is also great
The white mirror has the same shape as Vanilla and Xerus, the new image just shows it from a different angle.

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.
