Hello Games has released the BEYOND update for No Man’s Sky, and the first mods have surfaced for it. As such, today we are presenting you six mods that improve the game’s visuals and bring some gameplay tweaks.
The first mod, called Effects Overhaul, increases the amount of particles and debris spawned during combat and mining. The modder has also added some flying debris for Monstrosity deaths as well.
The second mod, called HD Clouds, is an overhauled atmospheric cloud texture based on Scooterbaga ‘s HD Clouds mod 4K texture. The third mod, Grass Fix, makes grass spawn in full density on slopes. Furthermore, it makes Exotic Lush worlds use the “Lush” color palette instead of “Base”.
The fourth mod, Small Cursor, changes cursor size to something a little more adapted to PC. The fifth mod, Fast Actions, provides quicker inputs for various functionalities such as menu selection, creating/dismantling technology, transferring resources to/from ship, entering ship, discussing with NPC and more.
Last but not least, the most exciting mod is the one called “Build underwater buildings anywhere“. This mod removes underwater restrictions for underwater base building options. Thanks to this mod, players will be able to build underwater items anywhere, even on dry land.
Have fun!

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.

still boring walking simulator.
and unoptimized i tried playing it in 3 separate patches with pc upgrades, it runs like trash.
Still? I thought the Vulkan patch was supposed to make it run better.
Yup, still suffering performance issues.
Devs have still been putting far more focus on slapping in needless content, trying to aim for a more Minecraft style game, than trying to sort out actual performance, so you can explore the game itself.
Damn, I guess I’ll keep waiting on this one.
Sounds like you have some old potato GPU, it’s running great here.
8core cpu, 6gb videocard 16gb ram, what else do i need cern computers?
You know, I actually do have a potato GPU (GTX 770) and it was running the previous patch just fine. Sure I only got 40-45 frames on mostly medium settings and high for textures, but it was steady and allowed me to actually play the game with decent looks and without going blind. After this latest patch, it won’t get me more than 10 FPS even on minimal settings for everything. So yeah, optimization is crap.
After playing for 10 mins, you’ll see everything it has to offer. Nothing but a treadmill loop that is still very far from what was falsely advertised years ago. Oh but “tEh uPdAtEs ArE fReeeeeee!” No, no they aren’t when an actual “game” was missing from day one. Smmfh. People regurgitating words of the hive minded sheep from twitter and giving them praise are why consumers can never get a fair deal this wild west industry.
Get mad
