With this mod installed I saw my frame rate increase in diamond city from 35 FPS on average to a respectable 55. And this is exactly the pointwhere this plugin comes handy! One of the most time consuming operations in Fallout 4 is shadow rendering and because the game has only predefined shadow drawdistance, which applies everywhere in every location just the same, we have a choise either we set it to high value with having a good picture but eventually facing fps drops in locations with lots of object or we lower the value to make fps more stable in general. Since the game isn’t properly optimized, almost everything that it does with objects which it renders takes more time thanit actually should. Many of you may have noticed that in some locations of Fallout 4 fps gets low even with a good hardware, like in the City, mostly it happens in theareas with lots of objects.
The mods creator offers the following description of it: “FPS dynamic shadows” mod by creator Shadow Beast adds the ability for the game engine to dynamically shadow draw distance and level of detail based upon your desired frame rate.
Are you still wandering through the wastes of Boston weeks after release? Are you playing the Windows PC version on mid-range hardware? If you answered yes to both questions, then I might have the right mod for you! Don’t worry Vault-tech isn’t involved in any way!
