Modder ‘fromsoftserve’ has released a must-have graphics mod for the original version of Dark Souls 2. This mod aims to significantly improve the graphics and visuals of the game. So, let’s take a closer look at what it brings to the table.
Vanilla DS2 Remastered adds to the game dynamic shadows, better textures, better skyboxes, and better normal maps. Moreover, it brings better mesh/texture lods, and better water reflections. Not only that but it allows torches to cast shadows onto more of the environment.
Going into even more details, the mod adds shadows to trees, houses, grass, buildings, and pretty much everything else that didn’t have shadows before. Plus, it makes the textures look way better by doubling their resolution. The modder also made new normal maps for walls and floors to make them look even cooler. Oh, and he turned the water from not-reflecting to reflecting, and added more stuff to see in the reflections. So, the game now looks way, way better than before.
As said, this mod is for the original version of DS2. You can’t use it with Scholar of the First Sin. However, fromsoftserve has released a similar mod for Scholar of the First Sin that you can download from this article.
Anyway, you can go ahead and download Vanilla DS2 Remastered from this link. Below you can also find some screenshots from it. These screenshots can give you an idea of what you can expect from it.
And there you have it, everyone. Now you can enjoy Dark Souls 2 with better graphics than ever. In a way, this feels like a remastered version of it. From what I know, FromSoftware does not plan to remaster or remake this game. Thus, this is the best graphical overhaul you can get for it. So, waste no time and download it.
Have fun!

I really wish we could get away from the whacko trannee scum at nexisnotsees site, there are huge games that don’t use that site for much. GTAV is one of them, long dark has little on traneenotsee site that works at all for years there’s another site that game uses xpazemandotcom if you can get the melonloader mods to work I never could. There’s moddb, cyberpunk2077mod or whatever search it has tons of mods including traneenotsee banned ones that don’t further the perv agenda, rdr2mods, etc Based Mods has all the banned stuff submitted in one place, you have a banned mod stick it there or get it there.
Nexisnotsees sell your info and likely take a percentage of the largest mods revenue who knows. The 77 images section is just gross as are many of the mods and modders, it’s a sickos paradise and the admins are militant aholes for it.
But how you think a perv site like that got to be so big? yeah another jumasontrannee sponsored site nothing more, the algos at joogle were pointing people there, etc and now we have monopoly sites like scamazon, feebay and such all over.
