THE FOLLOWING IS NOT COMPLETE
I am going to use this page to document what mods I use that are not a part of the current STEP release, how to make them compatible with each other and STEP, and give the reasoning behind each choice. This is a personal list primarily gathered from the excellent GEMS site, not everyone will agree with all the choices or changes. I am doing this really for myself and since I so love the STEP experience, I felt this would be a good place to catalog what I am going to use. The criteria by which I select mods are as follows...
|
SECTION A - VISUAL ENHANCEMENTS
For visual enhancements I am looking for a set of mods that both enhance the game's appearance and keep the computer system from slowing to a crawl. This is a very subjective topic, and each person will have their own likes and dislikes. After much testing I have determined that ENB is really just not worth the performance hit. The things that make the most difference in the appearance of a scene are, AO, Bloom, DOF, AA, Contrast, Saturation, AF. I can only speak to Nvidia users, but you can enable AO->Performance, AFx16 and FXAA using the hardware and all with very little performance impact. The following mods cover the remaining items and I think the screenshots below demonstrate best. Personally I feel the mods look more interesting, and also consider you have the flexibility of drastically changing the settings in game. This coupled with the superior performance make the choice simple in my opinion.
