DEV NOTES
The main version now packs everything into a FOMod installer! You should use a mod manager (Vortex or MO2) to install RETINA!
Manual installation is also possible, check the INSTALLATION section below!
(IMPORTANT! If using the Vortex Mod Manager, please ensure your Starfield Vortex Extension version is 0.5.7 or newer!)
COMPATIBILITY
The Main version is not compatible with mods that modify eye textures. However; selecting the 'Lighting Enhancements Only (Compatibility)' version during installation enables the use of RETINA's enhanced shading and reflections, along with the additional fixes, with another eye texture mod.
RESOLUTION OPTIONS
- The UHD version is 2K (2048x2048).
- The default version is 1K (same as vanilla res., 1024x1024).
- The performance version is 0,5K (512x512).
REPLACED EYE COLOR OPTIONS
This mod replaces all 12 default eye color options in Starfield.
The colors have been crafted to be as realistic as possible while remaining true to the original Starfield palette.
I aimed to maintain realism without assigning different eye colors to individuals, such as NPCs.
