GRID Ultra Mod Compilation

[blitxxx1981]

Greets to all.

After becoming easily confused about which mod packs were recent, and finding the best blend of quality, I have put together an AIO mod pack.

*NOTE!* Disable automatic game updates to preserve the mod files

It includes:
GRID Launcher
No Intro Videos
Ultra High V15beta4 with Depth of Field
Dargos Modhttp://www.megaupload.com/?d=KC5WN35JFor stronger systems, I have also made an Ultra Enhanced version:
GRID Launcher
No Intro Videos
Enhanced Ultra v3
Ultra High V15beta4 with Depth of Field
Dargos Modhttp://www.megaupload.com/?d=ERGCEYO1


Basically all of these together do the following

- increasing the range for displaying shadows on some tracks
- increasing the range for displaying details of the track
- altering Mip Map settings, textures should now be displayed in detail up to max range
- adding different resolutions for mirror (low 1,024 x 256, medium 2,048 x 512, high 4,096 x 1,024 , ultra 8,192 x 2,048)
- fixing in-game AA mode parameters (mirror gets smoothed too for example)
- ultra high details for vehicles: displayed like in replay mode
- improved display of vegetation; Now visible up to 4,000m up ahead - 1,200m in high detail
- adjusting settings for shadows and reflections; direct access between 128 and 4.096; reflections in HQ mode generate more textures.
- increasing limit of displaying particles and emitters
- particle option Ultra equals 6,000 particles; option ultra high equals 9,000
- adjusting Shader options for better visualization
- changes the lightning of the tracks with optimized blur
- Modified sun reflections


n-joyee !

Disabling automatic updates in Steam doesn't work.

There was a Left 4 Dead 2 update coming that was huge. I told Steam "DO NOT UPDATE" When I come back "1 download completed" guess what it was?...

I have personally never had issue with Steam updating games that I specify to "do not update"

Includes

Grid
ES: Oblivion COmplete
Stalker: SOC
Deus Ex
Dues Ex 2

Can you give a brief description of each of these mods?

It's a bit hard to find them on Google. And yes I'm also lazy.:p

Thank you, downloaded and it's working. ;)
Didn't really play with it yet, I'll play later... But I could already see that the exaggerated yellow tint is gone, and the hood view shows better quality in the car.

Does anyone make a mod patch that just makes Ultra High visuals? I don`t need any of the other stuff. Thx.

This mod was cool, but it seems to have also applied to and crippled MW2. What's the best way of reversing it's effects?

Maybe you changed something else on your system, like a driver?

Any chance of having these files hosted elsewhere? Started playing the game again :(

[Sir Arun]

Please host this somewhere else, or someone tell me where I can find "Enhanced Ultra v3" mod as megaupload is down.

how do I install these?

The 002, 003 and 004 files are really weird in that their file type itself is labeled a ".002 file", ".003 file" etc.

Use 7zip, Extract the .001 file and it auto extracts the entire thing. The .001-.004 is an archive that's been split up.
