Compressed Textures Project

Description
This mod replace textures with "compressed ones".

Textures compressed to DXT5 and resize down:
  • for landscape from 2048 to 1024
  • for some other stuff from 4096 to 2048

Those changes will help to reduce loading time, will reduce stuttering and save some VRAM, so overall performance will get a massive performance boost.



Note:
  • This mod doesn't affect your save data and no import required.
  • To maintain maximum compatibility you should put this mod above all other mods.
  • A few screenshots come with "CSM" Shadows (instead of RTWSM).
  • Kenshi is getting crashed? — check here.

В данном моде выборочно пережаты текстуры ланшдафта и обьектов, чтобы сохранить компромисс между качеством картинки и влиянием на производительность.

Не секрет, что игра использует свыше 10Гб текстур, преимущественно размера 4096x4096px. Регулярный стриминг ресурсов подобного размера сильно замедляет общую работу приложения, особенно при подгрузке игровых регионов на системах без SSD, с видеокартами у которых не более 4Гб видеопамяти.

С целью уменьшения размера текстур был использован метод сжатия DXT5, а основные правила уменьшения разрешения текстур были такие:
  • 2048 > 1024
  • 4096 > 2048
  • Выборочные 2к и 4к текстуры не были затронуты, т.к. их пережатие значительно снижало качество текстур в самой игре.

Пережатые текстуры дадут небольшую прибавку к частоте кадров и значительно сократят время подгрузок текстур с диска в память.

Letting everyone here who keeps coming back know that this mod has not been updated since 2019. A lot of mods or even base kenshi are going to run into rendering errors with this mod. If you are having crashes, this might be your culprit.

Would make Buildings not load properly when entering and would stay untextured could save and load to fix.

Добрый день, подскажите что делать после подписки?

FYI: when you go into hive buildings it crashes like 90% of the time, 100% of the time in the case of robotics shops. plus the infinite loading thing but that's usually fixed by reload/import.
