Change graphic settings beyond the in-game options
Change graphic settings in a deeper way in order to improve performance or go beyond the limits of standard options.
This started as a simple mod to improve performance on older PCs and became granular control over graphics configuration. The default configuration uses the game's standard values. To see changes you have to edit the config file.
This mod will override shadows, vSync, and distance/LOD options. Use the config file for those instead of the game menu.
These settings are experimental. If you find something that doesn't work, please let us know.
How to use
Extract the mod into your BepInEx/plugins folder.
Open the game once to generate a config file in BepInEx/config and edit the values, or press Home in-game to reload after editing.
Note: You can apply config changes while playing by pressing the Home key (configurable).
If you are here to boost graphics rather than performance, start the game to create the default config and look at: MaxFPS or vSyncCount, ShadowResolution, ShadowDistance, SunShaftsResolution, AOsampleCount and MBsampleCount.
Available options
General: reload hotkey, print original vs applied values, anisotropic filtering, texture size limit, max queued frames, particle raycast budget, pixel light count, realtime reflection probes, skin weights, soft particles, soft vegetation, LOD distance, vSync, target FPS.
Shadows: cascade count, shadow distance, shadow quality, shadow resolution.
Post-processing: disable all post-processing, sun shafts resolution/blend, bloom anti-flicker, SSAO downsampling/distance/sample count/high precision, anti-aliasing method (FXAA / TAA).
Flavor: bloom, lens dirt, sun shafts intensity, gamma, SSAO intensity/ambient-only, chromatic aberration, fog.
Advanced: sun shafts radius/blur, bloom soft knee, motion blur.
Configuration
Run the game once to generate this config file: BepInEx/config/cjayride.GraphicsConfigPlus.cfg

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file. In multiplayer, the host and every client need the same mods installed.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
