GTA 4 Remaster on PC Made Possible with Fusion Fix Mod
https://www.dsogaming.com/pc-performance-analyses/gta-4-remaster-on-pc-made-possible-with-fusion-fix-mod
The PC version of GTA 4 was one of the worst PC ports we’ve ever seen, which is a shame because the game itself is great. Instead of fixing it, Rockstar simply abandoned it. Thankfully, the modding community took it upon themselves to address most of its visual and performance issues, effectively remastering it for PC. Yes, GTA 4 Remaster is now a reality thanks to the Fusion Fix Mod. And the best thing? It’s completely free on PC.
Fusion Fix is a comprehensive open-source mod that aims to fix a wide range of technical issues, bugs, and limitations in the game that were left unaddressed in official updates. Right now, this is THE best mod for GTA 4. So, let’s take a closer look at it.
Let’s start with the most crucial features. Fusion Fix brings faster load times and smoother cutscenes at higher frame rates. It reworks the mouse input and adds support for Vulkan (DXVK). As I’ve showcased, DXVK can completely fix all the stutters of GTA 4. As such, you will now be able to fully enjoy GTA 4 on PC.
The mod adds sliders for things like FOV, depth-of-field, and motion blur. It also brings some handy gameplay tweaks. For example, there’s an always-run toggle, vehicle indicators, and smoother sniper controls. You also get a see-through map and cheat codes for Niko’s gloves and haircut. On top of that, you can now move while aiming through sniper scopes.
And that’s not all. Fusion Fix adds Sun Shafts and Volumetric Fog for better atmosphere. It also increases the draw distance and fixes the annoying z-fighting issues from the PC version. The mod improves lighting by extending how far the sun reaches and adds Project 2DFX for denser, more realistic city lights in the distance. Furthermore, rain visibility is restored, and the water looks better. The mod also fixes model fading, reworks shadows, and improves anti-aliasing. You’ll also see soft particles, shinier vehicle reflections, working mirror reflections, and glowing building lights at night.
Now, I won’t list every single fix and tweak this mod includes. Suffice it to say, this is the best mod for Grand Theft Auto 4. By using it, you’ll essentially get the remaster treatment on PC. If you plan to replay the game, I strongly recommend doing so with this mod. You can download it from this link. At the end of the article, you’ll also find its official trailer. So, be sure to watch it.

Download 46GB BioShock Infinite Mod That Replaces All Textures with HD Versions
https://www.dsogaming.com/pc-performance-analyses/download-46gb-bioshock-infinite-mod-that-replaces-all-textures-with-hd-versions
BioShock Infinite fans, here is something for you today. Modder ‘Tilrr’ has released an HD Texture Pack that overhauls all the textures of the base game and its Buried at Sea DLC. This is a must for everyone who wants to replay this BioShock game. So, let’s take a closer look at it.
This mod upgrades every texture in the game. About 11,000 textures were upscaled with Topaz Gigapixel, and another 500–600 were improved by hand. For those unaware, Topaz Gigapixel is an AI tool. In other words, the modder has enhanced the original textures. As such, the new ones retain the art style of the original textures. At the same time, they look sharper and more detailed.
Another benefit of this pack is that numerous effects, emissives, and specular effects were also upscaled. As a result, the lighting and volumetrics look much better. This is another nice bonus.
You can download this HD Texture Pack from this link. Once you have downloaded it, you’ll have to rename Bioshock Infinite 1 of 2.rar and Bioshock Infinite 2 of 2.rar to BSI Base HD.part1.rar and BSI Base HD.part2.rar, respectively. Then, you can unzip them and install them with TFC Installer. At the end of the article, you can also find some screenshots from it. These screenshots show off some of the new textures. Sadly, we don’t have any before-and-after screenshot comparisons.
