download watch dogs 2 hd texture pack dlc

You can totally run the game with HD textures with a 1060 or similar but you *will* have to lower settings otherwise, which kinda defeats the purpose of higher resolution textures, for example with my 1060 I had to play with 'prioritize framerate' which is basically dynamic resolution and looks rather muddy in order to achieve 1080/60 with the texture pack. Another game that does it and i know if is Rainbow Six: Siege.įor Monster Hunter World the 'minimum' requirements for the HD textures go from GTX 1060 for normal version (ie ps4 textures basically) to GTX 1070 for the texture pack, precisely because of the VRAM requirements. For example the high resolution textures for Final Fantasy 15 are over 90GB and thus the developers made it availabe as a DLC. Developers sometimes take the highest texture setting and make it available as a free DLC so the people that want to use it can still download it and the people who don't need it don't have to download all the extra stuff.

Normally these high resolution DLCs include the information on how much VRAM you need to run it.Īs for the reason it's available as a DLC: Often these high resolution textures are a big reason why games take so much storage space these days.

Normally in modern games you see less than 5% performance difference between the lowest and the highest texture settings while not maxed in VRAM. So if you have enough VRAM, it basically makes the game look better. And it shouldn't have a noticeable performance impact if you're not maxing out your VRAM. Normally the texture pack will only include higher resolution textures, not models. Having higher quality models will make the game look better, but it was negatively affect the performance.
