So after playing with the mod for a while, this shyt ain't right.

I got random lights just flickering all in my peripheral. It's too many effects at once, like the lights are fighting against each other for screen time. I can see why ubisoft removed them, it's like extra graphical features just for the sake of having them. Every car shouldn't have the same uniform beam of light that can even be seen in daylight:beli:

You can tell the effects were added just for screenshots/trailer. They don't really work with the full game. I wish there was a way I could use this mod for just the performance boost, and remove all that extra shyt, I'd probably get even better performace.

I agree. I tried the mod last night and while there's definitely a difference in graphics, there's way too many bugs and the lighting is nice, but it's not "realistic". Changed back to the regular ultra quality/high everything else

Edit: I'm gonna turn down the anti aliasing like dude above me said

Somethign is wrong with your shyt because ain't no lights "fighting against each other" or w/e from me or others. shyt looks way better than before and i have the custom DOF patch so the blur isn't as significant as before.

That's what I'm using.

You just said the game runs like shyt on your rig:beli:

Yes it looks better if your gonna just be strolling around looking for screenshots to take. But during gameplay the shyt just isn't practical. The rain is buggy, the extra bookeh shyt just gets in the way durning gunfights. The headlights look stupid, and the shadows coming of off them are at the wrong angle. The dof crap is stupid, even with the paired back version. Flashing lights everywhere no kanye.

This shyt is not better for gameplay at all. Just give me a performace patch and I'm good

This the first game on my PC that's giving me struggle frame rates. I'm tinkering with some config utility to try and achieve a smooth 30fps but even then it's mainly when driving.

:whew:
I took some more screens this game is beautiful. The TOD changing dynamically is amazing.

What does that have to do with your problems though? The issues you're talking about is not happening over here. The DOF is NOT interfering with the gameplay, the rain isn't buggy and the headlights don't look stupid to me. Sounds to me like you're just trying to save face as to not concede to the fact that there was a downgrade. :manny: I posted a DOF patch and you're still talking about DOF issues.
