Elden Ring - Game Mod - LOD Restored v.1.2.3.0 - Download

LOD Restored is a mod for Elden Ring, created by  Asmodean

Description (in author’s own words):

Restore Elden Ring's LOD/Drawing/Shadow distance, closer to what was shown, pre-release..

[Preamble]

This is a proof of concept. It works fine but needs time and tweaking further to optimize where is most needed. This will obviously have a performance impact, depending on your system.

Also, this is editing the regulation file. Recommended for offline.

See https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Elden_Ring for info on playing the game from the eldenring.exe directly, for improved performance.

I am essentially sharing here so that others can also be aware and also be looking into.

Make sure the game is running in offline mode and the AntiCheat (EAC) isn't running.

WARNING: you will almost certainly be banned if you play online with the mod active.

The anti-cheat must be disabled for this mod to load, this also means that you must play in offline mode. This is the case for all Elden Ring mods.

Create "steam_appid.txt" inside "xxxxx\ELDEN RING\Game\", write 1245620 inside the file.

Rename "start_protected_game" to "start_protected_game.old".

Create a copy of "eldenring.exe" and rename the copy to "start_protected_game".

The game should start without EasyAntiCheat loading up. You will get a message saying "Inappropriate activity detected" in the menu, this is fine.

Alternativelly you can use a mod that forces offline mode – for example Offline launcher (No EAC) orEldenRingEacToggler.

[Install]

Backup your existing regulation.bin.

Place the lod regulation.bin into your \steamapps\common\ELDEN RING\Game.. folder.

[Uninstall]

Remove the modded regulation.bin / move the original regulation.bin back into \steamapps\common\ELDEN RING\Game folder.
