NaturalFantasy - Upscaled Environment Textures

This mod does not address the game's texture streaming issues. Unfortunately, you will still encounter incredibly blurry rock textures in the game, and there is nothing I can do to fix this.

To improve the texture quality, I highly recommend using an ENGINE.INI mod or creating your own that enhances LODs, MipMaps, and texture streaming. Without these settings, the textures may look worse than before.

### Features

This mod doubles the resolution of most non-4K nature textures, approximately 1,300 in total. These include:

* Trees
* Cliffs
* Rocks
* Stones
* Ground
* Grass
* Flowers
* Puddles

### Performance

On my RTX 3080 with 12GB of RAM, I experience around 10-20% FPS drops in certain intense foliage-filled scenes, such as Gongaga. On my 7900XTX with 24GB of RAM, the average drop is around 5%. A mod user reported that their 4070 Ti works fine at 1440p.

I recommend this mod only for players with 12GB or more graphics cards and NVME SSDs. If you pan the camera fast, I've observed disk usage of up to 700MB/s.

### Known issues

As mentioned in the beginning, the game has some significant texture streaming issues. Even if a texture is upscaled, it may not appear because it will never load its full resolution, regardless of the settings or hardware used. Until someone resolves this issue, upscaling will not help with those textures.
