Risen mods

[KwisatzHaderach]

Hi everybody,

due to the recent steam sale, I figure there a few newcomers to Risen that might not have heard of the (few) mods there are for this exeptional game. For this reason I want to post some links of the more popular mods. I hope they all work with the steam version, since I only got the reatil version; if they don´t I´m sorry maybe an admin can delete this post.
As I said, there are only a few mods, but these can make for a gamechanging experience. The one with most impact on graphics is definately the "Autumn in Risen"-mod:

I really like this mod as I think it fits the atmosphere perfectly and really enhances the melancholy feeling while stiriding through Faranga.

Another graphical improvement can be made by this mod:

The changes are only minor, but it doesn´t cost much performance either.

If you don´t like the Autumn-mod you can fix the overall muddy vegetation qualitiy with this mod:

This mod is NOT compatible with the autumn-mod unfortunately. But it really makes a difference when having a look on one of the many stunning vistas with high drawing distance in the game.


There are also a few other mods like replacing the face of the hero and such, but I feel they don´t change the experience much.


Well, I hope this can add to an already great game.

If they increase the res of textures then performance will suffer so thanks but no. Also, it should be pointed out that if you use mods on Steam games then make sure to set the game not to get updates from Steam because Steam will overwrite the mod files.
