Playing a bit more and it seems that setting the Background Model to Ultra forces some types of vegetation to load the max LOD only when you are really close, it looks a bit jarring. Is this normal? Happens only with those kind of bushes.

gotta admit metaphor spoiled me on the traversing. how cloud "pauses" before doing anything like opening a chest/materia/climbing, the slowing down motion and turn around every time irks me.

No



Not sure what causes this for you.

It gets better, If you inject DLSS4 there is a massive, noticable improvement in IQ.
Can confirm. I did this last night (though I ran it with High preset and it was a game changer (To be fair though, the game looks gorgeous even without the DLSS4 "mod").

A very good port indeed.

Played with DLLs. Some DLSS4 shots for ya all (outside of DLSS and FPS it's basically PS5 version).

How exactly do the map markers of Queen's Blood players work in Rebirth? In Intergrade, each player had his rank icon on the town map. In Rebirth, the map marker of the player (opponent) changes as I beat them. Every icon was '1', once I beat the whiny bitch all three icons became '2', and once I beat the girl with her toy doll all markers became '3' ...

I don't get it.

Mods I would like to see on PC:

- Having all of the party being active in battle
- Being able to switch between all party members in battle
- Being able to use synergy with every party member you have synergy skills with
- Micro bikini mods for Tifa and Aerith.

You want to have all 7 PCs on the battlefield at one time? I feel like that would require massive rebalancing beyond the scope of a mod.

Unless you just want a fun steamroll kind of thing.

I checked several videos on YouTube and Twitch and plenty of people seem to have this problem. There are other reports on the Steam forum too.

Your video looks pristine though, so something is going on for sure. I hope someone can find a fix for this soon.

What GPU/VRAM you have?

Have you tried switching to high and then again to ultra, this loads entire grass again (maybe it will fix it?).

7800X3D / 4070 Ti 12GB VRAM / 32 GB RAM / SN850X NVME / 1080p.

The game runs really well at around 120 FPS, so I'm not sure what could be the cause. I tried all permutations of settings/resolutions but nothing changes. I tried updating to W11 24H2 and re-installing the GPU drivers to no avail. I'm gonna wait a few days and see if someone can find more about this.

Is KALM LOD any better in pc version?
Like here, beginning of the game, Can someone recreate this shot? I've taken it on ps5 version on launch.
Like... Kalm looks so good until you look at LODs. Look at bloodborne-like tower with glass window. Like.. CMON

And another one was changing rooms curtains on the beach level. Is the texture any better?

I never played the PS5 version to tell you for sure, but both the textures and the lighting feel worse here, than what I played on my PC. But some games look better in motion than in screenshots.

I mean, this is 30fps mode on base ps5, so pro mode is way better.
But I was just curious. I know that on PRO, this LOD is still shit.
Maybe someone will take same screenshot on pc maxed out of course.
I need to start selling some of my retro digicams to make some money for pc upgrade ... in the future

Gimme a minute, I'll try to accommodate you.

Outside the framerate and resolution/scaling the PC version is pretty much identical to PS5, including the overblown highlights.

Also, handy ASI plugin for ultrawide users

Glass tower seems to be fixed on PC.

If only there was cross saving for this.

I would insta buy the game once again to clear hard mode on PC.

I left hard mode unchecked on PS5 because I thought I would binge a PRO, but turns out I won't be buying a PRO anytime soon.

Go to FFVII Rebirth's Engine.ini file and try these commands. Set the file to read only state when you're done editing.
#Texture & Other Detail Quality
r.ViewDistanceScale=9
foliage.LODDistanceScale=9
r.LandscapeLODBias=-2.5
r.SkeletalMeshLODBias=-2
r.Streaming.MipBias=-15
r.MipMapLodBias=-15

Do you need Hook for this?

Currently playing: 34K

Estimated purchases: 124K - 300K.
I posted in the review thread but the currently play counteer is constantly quite steady morning/afternoon/evening and so I think sales must be decent across all regions, rather than being frontloaded in a particular part of the world.

Seems to be selling better than FFXV, FFXVI and VIIR-1 (much higheer CCU) whilst also driving sales down into VIIR-1.

Good result and the PC JRPG crowd seems starved for something new after a great 2024 for the genre.

I like to think a great number of people were just waiting for PC release. Especially after PS5 performance problems. As far as RPGs are concerned Rebirth on PC is great for January followed up by MH Wilds in February, Clair Obscur looks promising in April too so RPG fans will eat good. And if you have a Switch you have Xeno X in March.

Yup - I bought Remake for PS4, PS5 (never got to play that version because I never got a PS5) and Steam.

Rebirth, I only got at Steam.

How do you select that? The options here are confusing. Do you set the minimum resolution?
Yes, Maximum at 100% (basically this means the 'final resolution' is the resolution you have selected on the top of the options) and Minimum at 66% (this is the resolution the game will upscale to the 'final' resolution - i.e. takes 1440p and upscales it to 4K if you have selected 4K as your resolution).

It's unnecessarily complex, but hey, wouldn't be a Japanese game otherwise.
