If you only care about improving the environment, 4K clouds, STLM and the Enhanced Reshade mod are the three mods you should prioritize.īelow is an image of what the game looks like without the mod. You may lose up to 5 frames per second when using this mod - the textures are higher resolution, which means your GPU will need to render more at once. Everything looks the same, except all textures are higher quality and the world just looks that much crisper and cleaner.

The HD Reworked Project was built to create a higher definition world without changing the original graphics style. This is another graphical overhaul that puts focus on improving the overall texture quality of the world in The Witcher 3, instead of adding shading or lighting effects. The texture quality of the Wolf Medallion in this mod is far greater than the default version as well. This mod replaces the Wolf Medallion model with a version that has glowing red eyes. Once again, this mod is very minimal, but alongside everything else, it just adds an extra touch to your overall experience. I have to say, the creator of The Mutant did a great job at capturing that version of Geralt perfectly. The game immediately looks brighter with STLM installed, better shadows are cast on objects, and it is generally just a better viewing experience overall.

STLM is beautiful on its own, but when you pair it with the Witcher 3 Enhanced Reshade mod, you get even better results. The creator of this mod also used a number of other mods to make the perfect visual overhaul. Some people may feel that the saturation is little over the top, but when you get in the game and experience it for yourself, you may feel differently. The most notable thing about the Witcher 3 Enhanced Reshade mod is that all of the colors pop out at you. Not a bad trade-off when you get to make Witcher 3 look as stunning as this. The great thing about this mod is that despite improving the visuals of the game, it makes a very small dent on the overall performance. It enhances the shadows, the lighting, the colors and the contrasts.

It works with all lighting mods and with Vanilla lighting. The Witcher 3 looks beautiful already, but this enhanced reshade mod takes the graphics to a new level.
