Gurman hints about Apple working on making smart home products like security cameras for a more integrated experience […]

A new The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild 4K texture pack was released online today, improving every texture in the game. The pack, which can be downloaded from Nexus Mods, also features fonts, inventory, icons improvements as well as terrain improvements obtained with some workaround. As such, they are only included in the 1.1 version of the pack, which should be considered in early access for now. As opposed to most of the mods available for the game, this new texture pack only works with the Switch release, and so requires either a recent build of Yuzu with […]
Cyberpunk 2077's visuals are among the best we have seen to date, and they can reach new heights with the proper mods, as showcased by a couple of new videos available online. A video shared by NextGen Dreams on YouTube earlier this month shows CDPR's open-world RPG run with a few mods that give its visuals an amazing photorealistic feel, such as Nova LUT, the amazing HD Reworked Project by HalkHogan and a custom photorealistic Reshade. The modded cars also look amazing and make this rendition of Night City feel incredibly realistic. NextGen Dreams also shared a Cyberpunk 2077 video […]
A new Cyberpunk 2077 mod released this week addresses some of the ghosting issues seen in the currently available AMD FSR 3 Frame Generation mods. The FrameGen Ghosting Fix For FSR3 FG Mods, which can be downloaded from Nexus Mods, eliminates the ghosting that can be seen behind cars and bikes while driving in third-person mode and reduces ghosting while driving bikes in first-person view. This is achieved by essentially disabling Frame Interpolation in the areas behind the vehicles while keeping it for the rest of the scene. The mod was tested with LukeFZ's mod but should also work with […]

Nexus Mods, arguably the biggest repository for game mods on the Web, has crossed the impressive milestone of 10 billion downloads. The team behind the website has put together a few fun and totally made-up facts about it: If every download were a footstep, you could walk to the moon 11 times or walk The Seven Thousand Steps to High Hrothgar 4,161,464 times. If we celebrated every download with a slice of pizza, this pizza would cover 15 times the size of Manhattan Island. If a file download was made every second, it would take 317 years to download all […]
A new Palworld mod that was released online today enables some ray tracing features, improves ambient occlusion and shadow quality and more. The RTX Ray tracing and DirectX12 For Your Pals mod, which can be downloaded from Nexus Mods, is a modified configuration file that enables some ray tracing functions, changes the rendering API to DirectX 12, and improves visuals by increasing native rendering from 100% to 120%, removing fog, increasing quality of the PostFX effects, increasing Anisotropic Filtering to x16 and more. The enabling of ray tracing features and some of the tweaks impact performance considerably, so try it […]
A new The Witcher 3 mod that was released online this week further improves ray-traced global illumination in some clever ways. The Cozy RTX Fires, which can be downloaded from Nexus Mods, makes fires bounce around the environments more than in the vanilla game, filling the dark gaps, and eliminating or reducing the point light effect for light sources placed in the environment. The mod features four different levels of bounce intensity, and it works with any other fire or lighting mod as well. Ray Tracing support is among the new features of The Witcher 3 Next-Gen edition, which released […]
A Dying Light 2 AMD FSR 3.0 Frame Generation mod is now available for download, allowing users with any modern NVIDIA and AMD GPU to enjoy improved performance. The mod, which is based on the FSR 2.0 to FSR 3.0 bridge by LukeFZ, essentially replaces the base game's FSR 2.0 implementation with its next major update, which features Frame Generation support. As LukeFZ's bridge is still in beta, this Dying Light 2 mod comes with some issues, such as artifacts on HUD and text, and some input delay. You can download the mod from Nexus Mods. Dying Light 2 was […]
Having been released relatively recently, it will be a long time before Fallout 4 will be considered for a remaster or remake, leaving it to modders to bring the game's visuals to modern standards. A new video shared this week by Digital Dreams shows how the latest numbered entry in the series by Bethesda would look with ray tracing thanks to the Complete Ray Tracing shader preset by Nice Guy, a screen space ray tracing shader that lets users add global illumination with effects like Diffuse Illumination and Specular Reflection, ambient occlusion and glossy reflections to any game. Improving the […]
The Fallout London total conversion mod will be the icing on the cake for Fallout 4, learning from the base game's mistakes and shortcomings and adding features that people wanted to see in the base game. Speaking with DualShockers, Team FLON's Project Lead Dean Carter and Lead 2D Artist Emily Kemp talked about the upcoming total conversion mod, highlighting its size and features. Alongside introducing a new setting for the series, as no Fallout game to date is set in Europe, the members of the development team highlighted how they took the opportunity to fix things players did not like […]
Starfield is definitely lacking in means of transportation, but the situation is set to improve in the future thanks to an upcoming mod. Modder Jared Kohr shared a new video this week showcasing a work-in-progress mod that will allow players to pilot their own mech. While there's clearly some work left to be done, the mod seems to be working surprisingly well already. Bethesda seems to be aware of Starfield's lack of means of travel, as new ones will be coming in future updates. Last month, the studio confirmed new game updates will be released about every six weeks starting […]
