This mod significantly enhances the visuals of Mafia 3 Definitive Edition, revealing the true colors of the game without oversaturating them, thus providing a visually realistic experience. It corrects daylight illumination and reduces the excessive fog and haze that previously made the game look muted and unappealing. The game now appears sharper, with detailed and shiny graphics. Say goodbye to dull, lifeless skies and hello to beautiful blue skies at midday. Enjoy riding in shiny cars that reflect the surrounding environment. This mod offers a new experience with the game in 2024.
****It is highly recommended to enable the HDR feature in your Windows display settings to achieve a fully realistic experience.****
