Leaf Model Reducer

Performance Comparison at 384 View Distance (Version 1.0.0)

table comparing performance

This table first compares the difference between each Far LOD Bias setting for both the base game and the Leaf Model Reducer mod, it then compares the difference of those differences. Essentially, any inconsistencies between the two tests should be ironed out leaving the value to look at as "Difference Over Vanilla."

Extends the existing LODs on VintageStory's leaf blocks with a third level of even lower detail models along with various other plants for improved performance.

Zero AI Used

Suggested Settings:

  • View Distance of 256 or greater; Helps more at higher distances.
  • Far LOD Bias between 50% and 67%
    • The slider changes formatting when modified, 0.67x (44%) is the same as 67%.
License: I didn't create Vintage Story nor any of the tools used within this mod, what I did do was put it all together and package it up, so feel free to reference, extend, or incorporate this mod. Don't however place access to this mod or close derivatives behind "paywalls" of any sort, additionally do not use AI to do work in place of your own.
