WARNING: This mod does NOT work on nitrado hosted servers. Works fine in single player and non dedicated servers but NOT Nitrado dedicated servers.

This mod disables some Volumetric effects to help improve preformancer and framrate by running console commands on your behalf.

Commands the mod will run:

r.VolumetricCloud 0 (Disables clouds)

r.VolumetricFog 0 (Disables Fog)

r.Water.SingleLayer.Reflection 0 (Disables reflections on the waters surface)

r.Shadow.CSM.MaxCascades 0 (Disables large cascading shadows)

r.Lumen.Reflections.Allow 0 (Disables light reflecting off shiney surfaces)

r.Lumen.DiffuseIndirect.Allow 0 (Not sure what this disables but it helps FPS)

r.Streaming.PoolSize 0 (Disables texture streaming)

r.Nanite.MaxPixelsPerEdge 4 (Adjusts nanites to trade quality for performance)

If its not working on your game/server try changing your mod load order, make sure this one is the first to load.

Useful for new players that dont know how to change the settings by themselves or experienced player that are simply tired of putting the commands in.

It can help frame rate and visability. (Mine went from 60-80 to 80-120)

Escpecially useful on the Island as it gets rid of that pesky fog that cant seem to be turned off via .ini files.
