Yes, Cyberpunk 2077 is already in HD—it goes well beyond HD for anybody enjoying in 2K or 4K, even—however for those who ever stopped to have a look at the sport’s floor textures and partitions, you will have seen they’re not as sharp as a few of the extra attention-grabbing elements of the world.
That’s to be anticipated, in fact, no developer of their proper thoughts would spend as a lot time on a patch of dust as they might the character’s condominium or automotive. But when a sure sort of recreation reaches a sure stage of recognition, there are folks on the market who need to see what that appears like, price be damned.
You may not bear in mind, however again in 2020 I wrote a couple of Witcher 3 mission undertaken by HalkHogan, a modder who needed to present Geralt’s world a makeover, changing the sport’s default atmosphere textures with new ones that had been vastly extra detailed. That mod proved so good, and so profitable, that builders CD Projekt Red included it of their latest next-gen re-release of The Witcher 3.
Well HalkHogan is now again with a lot the identical factor for CDPR’s follow-up, Cyberpunk 2077, saying that his HD Reworked Project is now underway and posting a video showcasing a few of his work.
While you’d anticipate that including one thing like this to the sport would include a efficiency hit, HalkHogan says that as long as you may have sufficient spare VRAM, you received’t discover and slowdown in any way. And for those who do, he’s releasing two variations of the mod:
In normal, the modification doesn’t hit efficiency in any method if in case you have sufficient quantity of VRAM (video card reminiscence). Even for those who run out of reminiscence a bit, it shouldn’t be an issue (and if it should, you possibly can all the time simply uninstall the mod).
There are two variations of the modification, tailored to what the graphics card you may have.
Cyberpunk 2077 HD Reworked Project Ultra Quality: incorporates the best high quality textures and provides one of the best visible expertise. Highly advisable for 2K/4K shows. Game can use as much as max 800MB extra VRAM so most trendy graphics playing cards ought to simple cope with it.
Cyberpunk 2077 HD Reworked Project Balanced: maintains excessive textures high quality with decrease VRAM utilization. Recommended for graphics playing cards with much less quantity of reminiscence. Game can deplete solely about 400MB extra VRAM so mainly everybody who can comfortably play the sport can use this with out experiencing any important efficiency drops whereas having noticeably higher textures.
Version 1.0 of the mission is out there now on Nexus Mods.
