Re: WatchDogs - PC/Xbox360/XboxOne/PS3/PS4

some of the shots he have shown are exaggerated or i would say added post processing after they were taken, however I mixed those up with another mod, also the above mod can break dynamic lighting and add extra unnecessary contrasts. So I made some adjustments in the xml myslf and below are the results. At ultra 1080P, MSAA 2X, Hboa+Low, DOF on/off, Lowset FPS 33, highest 65, avg -41. It does help a lot with the stuttering issue while driving.

These are easily the closest anyone has got to the original E3 footage. Good job dude.

I wont mind, but follow the kadz vs TheWorse battle in guru3d, its a war now! Epic, each one claiming the mods as their own genuine invention, after much mud , now kadz thread is locked down and the file is missing from zippyshare.

PM me your email id, i will send it you.

Actually kadz was the first to introduce the xml mod, then he went on bending things until he came up with the patch files, where you dint need to fiddle with xml and directly put the patch.fat and .dat file into x64 folder, and then create a dynamic gamerprofile.xml by the game itself. Upto version 4.0 it was fine, then TheWorse came with the same concept except he claimed kadz mod had nothing to do with his, obviously crossed and name-called by kadz for allegedly stealing his idea and de-compiling and BinHexing his files.

However, kadz for now is partially banned and the version 5.0 of his patches are , which I presume is, released by TheWorse with E3 Bloom and other goodies, so i suggest just take the TheWorse Mod from here and apply as instructed.

The main reason for this feud is that kadz mod was impacting performance also breaking some Dynamic lights and shadows, while he was claiming just to improve it and somehow did, TheWorse came with more uniformly compiled shaders.

Ubisoft! You sneaky fking bstrd !! This is all you have been hiding from us, just castrated the game huh ?!! Guys! this is serious now, by the time we were all whining about how crippled this game in PC was, modders were busy. I mean i will show you why watch_dogs is not only a great looking game, it is in fact a game with frigging awesome visuals ! its just mind melting, with all those E3 eye candies! they are so damn real! Just have a look at these below screenshots after full mod 7.0 from TheWorse, see it, use it, believe it. Guys with GPUS like 280X or higher, i gotta tell you, just push this game , you are missing some real next gen stuff !

Greet your eyes with the sensational reflection of the neons in the puddle in front of aiden, also the prominence of sky in the reflection in the below two shots

Atleast they were kind enough to leave it in the files and not say "f**k it and delete". IDK how much extras there will be for GTAV when it releases for PC in the name of mods.

EDIT: And too much open-world games coming out. I can absolutely not miss Middle-Earth, nor AC: Unity, DAI is a game I'll play only if it gets good reception from gamers. I'm pretty sure I can't milk all these games dry. 24 hours isn't enough, SHYTE!

wow i am getting 10 fps at ultra............

- - - Updated - - -

Wow! This game's actually great apart from being badly optimized. Loving it more than I did GTA IV (ain't dissing GTA, still want GTAV), it's a breath of fresh air in modern open-world games really, one-tap hack (may not be true hacking) but can be used to feel more badarse especially during cop chases.

The graphics are great. I'm on everything Ultra, Textures High (even though my card has 3 gigs, as recommended by every PCer) beats Sleeping Dogs by a mile. TBH, Sleeping Dogs' night with raining graphics were great but too saturated, I feel this game gets that right.

Bad thing is ugly optimization, comes down to 26 while driving) and driving mechanics (GRID-like). Oh and also, I had turned on Power Save mode in Windows which was the reason for poor performance. CPU's fine, no bottleneck or anything.

i am getting 10 fps, how are u getting more??

LOL. Quoting a six-month old post. xD

This game's worth for a max of 2 days after beating it in a week. Sorry, I don't have the game. But had installed the beta drivers which was released during its launch.
