[@KrushSG]

Hey folks! Some seem to be having problems downloading/installing a couple of mods in the collection so I'm posting a quick note here. For those having problems downloading TweakXL and ArchiveXL, that's likely a nexus/vortex server issue. It is not uncommon for mods to fail to download on the first couple of tries, especially in large collections if you don't have premium. The interim workaround is to head directly to their respective mod pages and click the mod manager download button. This should allow you to keep trying to download them until they actually download(without having to redownload the entire collection). ArchiveXL's Page: www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/4198?tab=files TweakXL's Page: www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/4197?tab=files If you are getting the "Didn't Find Expected ArchiveXL installation" error instead, according to the author of ArchiveXL, you need to update your vortex to the latest version. If you are already on the latest version... you could try a full manual installation of ArchiveXL and TweakXL if you are willing, I go over manual installation in my basic modding guide. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rnammaepgLl0aKMsi=ll4nr5Itbz1tTgWh&t=344 Otherwise I'm sorry but I don't really know how else to fix that problem, ArchiveXL and TweakXL are absolutely crucial for almost any mod to work so you can't use the collection without them, but I will keep poking around and update if I find something.

[@2077v2]

Hi mate. This can be fixed by right clicking the mod in Vortex and selecting "unpack as is". The Vortex extension has been updated to support the new updates for archive and tweak xl so if you update the collection with the newest version it will also fix the error. Regards ve.

[@dustinadty9961]

is this the same case with inputloader and night city alive? because I'm having problem with those as well

[@krink084]

Out of curiosity, because I notice Notifier begone and Not So Good draw distance mod both alters streaming sector files, which one are you letting win the conflicts? Notifier begone says it's incompatible with mods that alter streaming sector files, but I really like having the extra draw distance.

[@krink084]

The answer is notifier begone. I've had no issues after many hours of play.

[@N2Flashy]

Congrats on the 4090!!! So happy for you! I hope you love yours as much as I love mine. Your mod reviews are always so helpful for me

[@KrushSG]

Thanks! It is a performance beast and I am definitely enjoying the power! Surprisingly though, having come from the AMD software suite, the workflow for capturing > editing > posting videos is shockingly unpleasant on the Nvidia side of things, something I never expected in a million years. The short version is there are so many things in the video creation workflow that I either never had to consider or it just took 1 click or it just worked with the Radeon software. But on Nvidia... Almost everything requires some 3rd party software or some workaround. I've mostly worked it out now but it was definitely an interesting first few days with the 4090 putting this video together 🤣

[@darksoulyt5549]

@@KrushSG Hey bro! appreciate your channel and I hope you get bigger, I started following you when you were at 10k subs. Wanted to ask about path tracing improvements which you showed before on your channel and I noticed you didn't add it to the collection, wanted to ask why? thanks!

@@KrushSG If you could do a list of the mods you use and need to be manually downloaded. One last thing I have the same setup as you and was asking do you use frame gen or is there too much blurriness? and ghosting

[@KrushSG]

@@darksoulyt5549 Yep lighting mods and ultra plus aren't included, as well as any modded vehicles. Otherwise i have a few older mods installed that still work but have been removed from nexus by the authors for some reason. I didn't use frame gen for this video, not because of blurriness but because I am having a lot of problems capturing frame gen footage. In actual gameplay it looks great but Nvidia's inbuilt capturing software surprisingly doesn't capture stuff as seamlessly as AMD's software does, so in captured video there are lots of dropped frames and tearing. OBS also doesn't capture generated frames so I haven't been able to properly capture any FG footage.

Dope collection. Doing a realism/immersion collection for my newest playthrough. Snagged a couple (notably Cosmopolitan). Appreciate it.

[@KrushSG]

Cosmopolitan is soo good haha, since you are doing up your own collection you could try the enhanced or lite editions, those come with full subtitle(translation effect) support, makes it feel like it's natively built into the game.

​@@KrushSG I spent about 10 minutes deciding which version and ended up with the extended version. Loving it already. Soon I'll have a PC like yours and be able to throw some crazy graphics mods in 😈 Appreciate the vids again. Very concise and has different mods compared to the same ~15 mods every other video has.

[@BIGBADBOY9112]

@@BloodGangJohnWayne there was an issue with vortex and it wasnt launching. You have to manually install two of them. But he might have fixed it now.

Updates breaking mod setups has been a running joke with Cyberpunk for a long while now haha. Happily the essential and dependency mods get updated very quickly (Redscript usually a little longer). Shout out to the modders. Hopefully things will bed down now but be prepared for more minor updates, even those can mess with the framework. Thanks for these modlists, very helpful channel.

[@KrushSG]

Yea hopefully they chill for awhile. Not that I don't appreciate game updates but I hope the next update puts out something actually meaningful like FSR 3.1 or full XeSS 1.3. 2.12a was 1 tiny hotfix and everyone still had to scramble to update everything haha!

[@kassandraofodyssey6475]

Well now you guys get to feel how we feel about Skyrim, Fallout 4, and New Vegas mods breaking, especially script extender mods. Except for whatever reason we like to call it a “modpocalypse” even though most of these mods will be updated anyway.

[@CarlWheatley-wi2cl]

@@kassandraofodyssey6475 I already know having modded FNV for over 10 years haha. Modding Cyberpunk is a doddle compared to that game although it has become somewhat more straightforward after modders eventually jumped in to provide the features of Project Navada after it was abandoned. I had nightmare problems with some texture mods in FNV. The notorious giant red exclamation mark on characters when certain meshes were corrupted and couldn't be fixed without a fresh reinstall.

[@peacefusion]

you dont have to keep updating you know.

[@divinium33]

This is awesome been waiting on ur list for a while now, I too upgraded my GPU, I went from my beloved 3080 vision to a 4080 strix and cyberpunk was the first thing I started modding the crap out of again 😂😂😂

[@KrushSG]

Grats on the upgrade! Yea definitely, I would never have switched personally if not for it being a gift from my wife cos I think the 4090 is way too expensive but... if you play games that properly implement RT or PT, damn, nvidia truly nails it with the 40 series. Even just a 4070 puts out better looking RT, while having access to frame gen.

[@divinium33]

@@KrushSG thank you thank you haha, that’s amazing of her to get for you! And I agree, I was able to get the 4090 but the value for money is just not it compared to a 4080 super, I’m loving pathtracing but raytracing is where it’s at for sure, currently re-making my mod list from scratch for a new playthrough using your collection as its core!

[@luissanchez3d]

[@lynns3195]

I’ve never used a collection but I’ll definitely try yours. I encountered a game crashing bug during a quest and I’m certain it’s a mod that is causing the issue. Thanks for your hard work!

That does sound like a mod issue, having quest issues is not uncommon with some mods, especially if installed midway through a playthrough. Hope you work it out!

[@gunnarthegumbootguy7909]

Limited HUD is the one i recommend everyone to get, only mod i absolutely need... djkovrik is a real master of very useful mods. but perticularly this one specially the simple thing of removing the quest marker on screen... (in game the only way to remove it is to deselect an active quest or to choose a quest with no known location), you can still configure it to show the marker when scanning or zooming or what ever you want, same with all other elements, to have as little stuff as possible on the screen

[@dorinionita4675]

Thank you!

[@HardyPilgrim]

Excellent video, as usual. I’m curious about your thoughts on HD Reworked Project since that seems to be the go-to texture mod for a lot of people, but it’s not included in your collection.

[@KrushSG]

I think hd reworked is great, I used it for a long time myself. There are a couple of reasons why I didn't include it this time round. 1) While managing my previous collection I got a few reports of weirdly high VRAM usage that matched reports received by some other mod authors and it seemed to narrow down to hd rework being finnicky with VRAM use on certain systems/mod loadouts. Didn't wanna risk it. 2) Much like Xila's Surfaces, HD Reworked is a pure upscale, so vanilla but upscaled. ETO and MENC actually rework some textures entirely to look slightly different(often better). Plus MENC is really VRAM friendly, it barely hits vram at all while providing better quality textures.

[@Rem_NL]

works great with ETO, alphabetical they should already load in the proper order, but just in case ETO should get priority, i know it can slightly conflict with some packs, but i havent found any issues running these two together.

[@HardyPilgrim]

@@KrushSG Interesting. Fortunately, I haven't had any of those VRAM issues using it. I also use ETO, but none of the other texture mods I've tried make the Japanese lamps strewn everywhere pop as HD Reworked does. I keep installed at the bottom of the texture load order just for that. I'll have to try the manually enhanced overhaul. I tend not to have good luke with their mods for some reason.

[@HardyPilgrim]

@@Rem_NL Yes, I always give ETO priority over HD Reworked as well.

[@KrushSG]

Yep me too, as soon as I discovered eto it was always top priority with the rest filling in the blanks. MENC gets largely overwritten by ETO though cos it touches fewer textures. Give it a try, I spent a couple hours swapping between the 2 and felt I preferred the "aged" look that MENC gives to some structural materials. Another combo to try is just going ETO first with HD reworked after and running the MENC bump map file. That adds some nice bumpmapping to textures.

[@inquus628]

I can not find the Custom Reshade further great work i will try it definetly

[@KrushSG]

It's just my own custom reshade, for this specific video with Edge LUT Vibrant I use Lightroom to bump global contrast up to 0.250, reduce red saturation by 0.100.

[@saizozeke2173]

7:52 The lizzie braindance mod the full one let you hack into a terminal (near to judy workplace) and in there you can set it lore friendly too, instead of having the lore friendly mod only (I dont know if that one have the hack terminal too)

[@kovandarkwing6175]

I could not get a previously mentioned mod from another video you've made. I'm not able to ride with Johnny for The Passenger. It's like the only mod by Deceptious that doesn't work for me at least and rather simple to install. Thanks for sharing!!

[@KrushSG]

Yes something is weird with the passenger mod right now, it seems to work sometimes but bug out other times, I haven't been able to figure out what's wrong myself, that's why I didn't include it in the collection this time.

[@pokelvr299]

Hey Krush, thanks for the video. I've noticed since installing your modpack that I can't get the quest marker path to appear in game anymore? Is there a certain setting I have to enable in order to see directions to the quest?

[@west5385]

enjoy that 4090 for me. My RX 6600 cost more than a month of minimum wage in my country but I am very happy with it. Thanks for this mod collection video, Im going to replay the game once FSR 3.1 comes to Cyberpunk

[@KrushSG]

Thank you, I will do my best haha! Yes fsr 3.1 needs to come to cyberpunk... It's taken them long enough! And it better be 3.1 and not just 3...

[@windowfries]

I am new to modding, well new to PC gaming in general.I was trying to figure out if it's a good idea to add mods to Cyberpunk on a first time playthrough? If I was going to use these mods as a baseline and some body mods for V? And I know there are also graphics mods and car mods, but even more RPG type mods too, like for relationships and stuff. Will having mods like that conflict with a brand new campaign or will it not matter? Or is it just better to complete the story first and then start installing mods?

[@willrun4fun]

Nice! I just picked up a 4090 FE. I'm still figuring out what settings work best for me. Any tips to what settings really matter? My game is a couple of patches out of date and sometime need to go through updating. I use MO2 so my games install folder stays clean.

[@Spoggi99YT]

Quick question concerning Ultra Plus when using this collection: I have a 4080 Super with 16GB RAM - should I use the 16GB version of Ultra Plus in conjunction with this collection or the 12GB version due to the fact that the collection includes so many texture mods?

[@Disco_Tek]

Do you mind dropping your rig specs and what settings you're shooting most of this at? Basically wondering if Path tracing and Frame Gen are going to break some of this stuff. Awesome video and checking out the collection!

[@KrushSG]

All the specs and graphics settings are in the description. I didnt have fg active for the footage in this video because I can't get FG to capture properly, but no FG and PT won't break anything, works perfectly fine.

[@Shidera5721]

I highly recommend "Unchainned Textures Overhaul" over XilaMonsterr's 4K Series. In addition to upscaling textures, this mod utilizes various AI enhancements to significantly improve the quality, making them truly resemble native 2K and 4K textures. In my tests, even the 2K textures from Unchainned exhibit higher fidelity than the 4K counterpart from XilaMonsterr, thanks to the image enhancements. Furthermore, the Unchained mod includes the same comprehensive coverage for all major and unnamed NPCs, clothing, etc. and yet manages to be significantly more VRAM-efficient due to its wise texture selection. For instance, some textures are 'only' scaled to 2K instead of 4K when appropriate, and unnecessary texture upscaling for bump maps are omitted. You can find a simple comparison screenshot from me in the comments section of the mod.

[@KrushSG]

Ooo I always love me an all in one texture mod, thanks for the suggestion, I'll check it out!

[@Disco_Tek]

Good call on this one. For a all in one this is quite a impressive mod.

[@2077v2]

I would have to disagree with this one. I work with Xila and when it comes to upscaled textures no one does it better than xila. Her textures arnt just simple AI upscales and the quality diffrence can be seen in any of the pictures and the sheer file size.

[@Disco_Tek]

@@2077v2 I'm reinstalling her stuff right now to see.

[@Shidera5721]

​@@2077v2 Firstly, I want to clarify that I have the utmost respect for Xila's work; her mods are exceptional. After extensive comparison of both upscaling efforts, examining the raw extracted textures and in-game visuals, I've observed that the majority of textures in the unchaiNNed mod exhibit a noticeably higher visual fidelity. This is particularly evident in flat 2D sprites, such as posters and vending machines, where the improvement is quite striking. It appears that the image enhancement techniques and/or NCNN's used for the unchaiNNed mod are either more thoroughly trained/better parameterized for Cyberpunk or better suited for it's textures in general. Furthermore, while I mean no disrespect, your reference to the "sheer file size" somewhat undermines your credibility. The correlation between file size and image fidelity is minimal; physical resolution is not the primary determinant of quality. The unchaiNNed mod leverages this by only applying enhancements to many textures that occupy smaller display areas in the game, rather than simply upscaling them, or by applying a lower upscaling ratio. This approach effectively reduces unnecessary VRAM consumption while still achieving great visual improvements in the game. However, if you decide to pursue that argument, consider that the 4x (300%) version of the unchaiNNed mod, comparable to Xila's 4K variant, has a file size of 14.1GiB compared to 19GiB for Xila's. This difference isn't substantial, especially when you consider the points made in my previous passage.

[@scenenuf]

Man, I've been away from Cyberpunk since October last year. I was mainly playing it on my steam deck about 500 hours in coming from a 2070 super on my laptop and boy I've got 200 plus mods that I now need to update. I only just realised that the Enemies of Night City mod had been updated for Phantom Liberty and that's what's drawn me back for another playthrough. I might actually look at a fresh install and just install your big mod collection Due to me manually installing those 200 plus mods on my steam deck and having to manually go through and update every single one and delete every single one. Tried to start last night and yeah just got overwhelmed and kind of turned it off. I was wondering, do you believe Enemies of Night City would work with this collection? or could there be conflicts? Didn't realize the manual enhancer had deleted a bunch of my mods that I usually use from him and package them into one big mod set. Which is good that you've included it here because his mods were fucking excellent for the Steam Deck. Gave me a lot of performance fixes, you seem to use a lot of the mods that i tend to prioritize aswell.

What LUT and/or ENV do you use? The lighting in your game is pretty much exactly what I've been trying to achieve in this game since 2020. I've been messing around with GITS 3.0 Fuji ENV + Preem LUT, but the sky takes on a very unnatural dark blue hue that I very much dislike. Granted, that could also be an issue with the HDR implementation.

[@KrushSG]

Yea the the GITS fuji env does make the sky color an unnatural blue. I use either Preem LUT with the Preem Env(no reshade), or Nova LUT Vibrant with the Vanilla Env and Preem optics for vignette removal(no reshade). Or for this video specifically, Edge LUT Vibrant with the Vanilla Env and Preem Optics for vignette removal, and either set ingame gamma to 1.15/1.20(no reshade) or use Lightroom in reshade to bump global contrast up to 0.250, reduce red saturation by 0.100.

[@hatas1zcool]

If I already installed some mods manually, can I still use your curator/collection mod package by using vortex? Or should I uninstall everything manually and then download your collection? Thanks for the video.

[@KrushSG]

As far as strictly installing the collection goes, there should be no problems because vortex manages the collection files directly. The only problem is if any of the mods you installed conflict with the mods in the collection or if you actually have some mods installed manually that are also in the collection (just make sure you don't). One option is to manually uninstall all those mods and reinstall them via vortex if possible. If those mods were manual install only to begin with then I would just try installing the collection and see if it causes any problems, cos I didn't include any manual install only mods. You can always disable the entire collection in the worst case scenario and everything will return to what it was originally for you.

btw is there any flashilght or night vision mod? Often i end up in pitch black places

Yes there are, both actually. Simple Flashlight: www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/2913 Night Vision Optics: www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/8326

Would mods like HARDCORE22 and Enemies of Night City work with this list do you think? Obviously, it wouldn't really be fully vanilla+ anymore, but would combat mods like those break anything?

[@KrushSG]

I'm not familiar with hardcore22 but yes enemies of night city should work fine.

[@libertylemonz7145]

@@KrushSG HARDCORE22 is a combat overhaul mod that primarily sets the hitpoints of most humans in the game, including V, to 100. This makes combat a lot more quick and lethal. You need chrome and body boosts if you want to go above 100 hitpoints, you don't get hitpoints from leveling up anymore. Most bosses are exempt from this change.

bro can u please tell me ur yt export settings please

Is there a way to show the minimap I’m really having a hard time playing without the minimap

[@KrushSG]

Sure, go into mod settings, under LHUD and u can customize when every element is displayed(or not) and even assign elements to a global hotkey so you can just tap to hide the UI or bring it up whenever you want. The global hotkey can be assigned in the CET menu

[@Jinthan-yy5ms]

@@KrushSG you are a life saver bro. Last question how can I change the hotkey for the change time. It always get toggled when I sprint.

[@tombtl9720]

No more "Improved Environment LODs"? or "Improved Vehicle Lights Draw Distance"?

CP doesn't use textures, so I'm curious what those mods actually do

[@spinkey4842]

i never update the game right when a patch is dropped. usually wait a week or 2 until "Most of my mods are updated

[@KrushSG]

Yea I tend to wait myself but when dealing with a collection so many just update the game immediately, have it break the mods and report problems. I felt like I was working hardcore CS for awhile between 2.11 and 2.12 😅

@@KrushSG i guess some don't even understand and the rest are just impatient

[@RS_0_7______]

Hopefully someone helps me out, the virtual car dealer and virtual ateliar mods are not working for me after I installed the collection, I modded my game before and it was working previously, thank you. PS. fixed it, if you are on cyberpunk 2.12, you have to download the latest red4ext version, the collection has the 2.11 version red4ext

Is 4070 super enough? It has 12g of ram

[@monkaSisLife]

I have a 3080 and i just cant play the game. 60 fps just dont feel fluid to me i need at least 120 but all i get is stutters and below 60fps

[@wayne0320]

Way to go with 4090, only thing left is join the OLED hdr gang.

[@KrushSG]

Thanks! The oled might take awhile though. It's not so much a price issue but more of a practical one. On the one hand, OLED is the only way I'd go if I wanted proper HDR, and now more than ever, every company is just dropping new oleds. On the other hand, I work partially from home now and largely on my pc. The thing is always on, 12-16hrs a day(sometimes more), and on rather static stuff like excels, visual studio, word etc. A little worried about the burn in tbh.

[@sedraniM]

Would you recommend mixing this collection with Ultra Plus?

[@KrushSG]

Sure of course, that's how I run it on my setup. There aren't any mods in there that directly conflict with ultra plus

[@sedraniM]

@@KrushSG Perfect!

[@denixboi8004]

Why not lut/env in the modlist :c

[@bitterweet5115]

one of my biggest problems with cyberpunk is its immersion is so mixed at points, if u go to fast around the map all npcs are gone and cars, or there really low texture. And some of the minor voice actors are really not that great

[@KrushSG]

Yep I agree, the engine doesn't handle lod and streaming well at all and it got worse after 2.0/2.1. We used to have mods that fixed almost all pop in and lod issues but whatever we have left after those patches don't do half as much.

[@vvscurly]

[@plaguemanbad6843]

How are you able to use Preem Hair and Lizzie's braindances together without getting crashes?

[@KrushSG]

Hmm I've never had any problems running them together. Those 2 shouldn't conflict at all, they don't edit the same files.

[@plaguemanbad6843]

@@KrushSG That’s what I figured. But when I deleted Preem Hair, the Braindances stopped crashing (except arasaka tower)

[@KrushSG]

It could be a conflict between preem hair and a different mod, which then causes some havoc with Lizzie's braindances. Can't think of any immediate suspects though, I've used preem hair and Lizzie's for so long, running hundreds of mods without problems specifically with those 2.

[@plaguemanbad6843]

@@KrushSG I should probably note that while I am rocking an RTX 4070 GPU, I've only got 8GB of VRAM, which might have something to do with it.

[@ImJorch]

You dont need finisher bug fix 2.1 anymore

[@KrushSG]

Thanks! I didnt know that, cos I don't play melee builds often, I'll remove it from the collection.

[@HalfEclipsed]

I don't know why but even without texture mods or lod mods, I keep running out of vram and yes I have 24gb of vram.

[@KrushSG]

That doesn't sound right, what render resolution are you playing at and do you have RT or PT enabled? The only way I can think of that happening without texture upscales is if you are running at super resolutions(VSR or DSR) of maybe 8K or 5K2K or running one of those super ultrawide 32:9 monitors, and have path tracing enabled at the same time.

[@philiprushforth4980]

If you have an Intel 13 or 14 series CPU there is a known issue with motherboard settings causing this problem. Lots of Motherboard vendor are releasing new drivers to solve this or Check JayzTwoCents video on the subject. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fnrYk42PrKeZhsU

[@gridhellsing]

You dont use ultraplus mod?

[@KrushSG]

I do but like I explained in in the notes section of the video, I didn't include it in the collection because ultra plus does a lot with the game engine and requires a decent amount of setup(or manual installation) depending on which version u use. Collections can't contain anything that requires manual installation.

can anyone make a mod where you can play this im vr and also multiplayer with one person I wanna play this game in vr with my girlfriend and explore the world together and hang out and drive around im vr is that possible for someone to make ?

come across loads of issues installing mate, conflicts and errors all over the place

[@KrushSG]

Strange, errors I can try to troubleshoot but the one thing that shouldn't happen with this collection is conflicts cos none of the mods in this collection conflict with one another. Did you already have some mods installed on your game prior to this?

[@connormatthews522]

@@KrushSG nope totally cleared it out. In the end I manually installed all the base mods like tweaks, redext etc, then ran through everything else and it worked fine sans a couple of the deceased mods. Took me a while to figure it out lol

[@mexicanhalloween]

hopefully this means CDPR is about to break your collection with the FSR 3.1 update. Absolutely preach about 2k textures, there are so many 4k/8k/16k texture mods for so many games that are just wastes of bandwidth.

[@KrushSG]

Now that is a patch I'd gladly have my collection broken for :). It better be fsr 3.1 too and not just 3.0!

[@mexicanhalloween]

@@KrushSG thanks for tipping me off to XeSS 1.3, it's so much better than FSR 2.1 and it's working great for now

[@DigitalVirusX2]

On one hand there's a lot here that does make the game look really nice, but the extremely muted colors are so off putting, it's like V has an extreme low vitamin A deficiency and is about to pass out any second lmao.

[@KrushSG]

🤣 I like how you put that. It just happens to be the lighting mod I featured in the video, Edge LUT is actually a meme LUT by design. I usually pick a different lighting mod to feature in the footage of every video(that isn't a lighting mod showcase). The collection doesn't include any lighting mods so if you don't explicitly install one the collection won't change your colors or lighting in any way.

[@Varangian_af_Scaniae]

Almost 21GB VRAM, that's unpleasant to see. I'm thinking about a 4070 ti super and they only have 16GB. Might have to wait for the 5000 series because if I have to spend well over $1k on a card it has to be good for the next 10 years and if games already hits 20GB VRAM 16 GB will not be enough for the future.

[@KrushSG]

There are a lot of factors that cause the game use 21 on my system specifically. Resolution(4K), path tracing(heavy VRAM use), full 2k texture upscales, Nova traffic with 70 modded cars installed(modded cars have no LODs so they load at max resolution at all times). Add OBS capturing, with my video editor open in the background(for a few of the clips) and yep, easy 21gb used, in fact capping out the full 24 under these conditions isn't hard to do. But if you just run the game like a normal person would with the collection and no other additional mods or crazy settings, the 16gb 4070ti super will handle it just fine(doubt ull be running the game at 4K on that card so at 1440p 16gb is plenty).

[@malcultimas633]

I run pretty much the same mod setup minus Nova Traffic and Nova Crowd along with Ultra Plus 4.0 using PTNext at high but at 1440p and my game uses like 11gb of vram, maybe 12gb in certain areas around H10 and in Dogtown, pretty sure the 21gb is mostly from all the modded cars and extra NPCs being loaded on top of the 4k resolution, pretty much every modded car author uses like 8k and 16k textures to make the cars super pretty, they weren't really designed to be bulk loaded into the game, there's only supposed to be 1 active which you drive. A regular 4070 ti would be more than fine to play the game on at ultra with decent amount of visual mods.
