Yeah, I grabbed a boat and just went exploring, the "Pawnee" area is absolutely stunning to sail around all the little inlets and creeks!
No, but it's ridiculously easy to install - drop 2 files in the game's data folder, and change one entry in the config file.
There are a few settings within that config file - you sure there isn't one with the setting at "_runtime" ?

i dont think the tweaks make a lot of difference, but yes the game will use >3gb at 1080p on ultra.

I have just completed a few missions with the 0.7+ mod and whilst the shadows are nice, the bloom and DOF effects are just to heavy-handed for my taste. They look good in certain situations but in others they are unrealistic and distracting. High speed driving is particularly weird, it is like Aiden forgot to wear his driving glasses.
High speed chases do run smoother with the mod in place, but I wonder if this is because the mist and DOF effects are effectively reducing the level of detail at distance.
It does show promise though and I am sure that by v1.0 it will look really good. Not sure I'll still be playing it though by then.
By the way the official patch is on the way and will be released in the "coming days". Don't expect any enhancements to the graphics though:

The cynic in me expects that after the patch the E3 graphics mod will magically stop working

I've only just been told it doesn't.
Well, whoever told you was wrong then
I've already posted one screenshot showing 3gb usage,I have loads more where my usage is hovering around 2.5gb. Again, all 1080p

I ran the Mod and the game is still running rubbish, do i need to disable Xfire in this game?
Running a 295x2 and a 290x on a 4k monitor, already disable AA and stuff and its unplayable
really don't want to play this at 1080p and on my last 1440p monitor i had the same issue

It was busted before that, i ran this on dual 780Ti (fine) and Dual Titan black (stuttered and artifacted a lot)
Since i moved to the red team its been unplayable, maybe I'm doing something wrong
