It's a hex editing job in essence, and it's a shame developer Virtuos hasn't been able to tackle this point itself, given the team's access to actual source code. The catch: the adjustments necessary to make this work across the entire game will involve months of tinkering, on a scene-by-scene basis.
However, this doesn't mean it's impossible, and a modder going by the name Naxshe is already demonstrating the game operating at a full 60fps. It's understood that many of the game's systems, including audio sync and collision detection, are tied directly to this frame-rate, which makes its removal all the more challenging. Final Fantasy X is limited to 30 frames per second and at least for now, this cannot be unlocked. The frame-rate cap is a good starting point. But first, we must address a few limitations that remain on PC which may leave some fans disappointed.
However, more extravagant modes are included this time, letting us enhance both visuals and gameplay in ways that help earn its title as the definitive version. On PC, the core assets - such as textures and geometry - are identical to the last two home console remasters, and it keeps a form of the ambient occlusion effect added on PS4. Over the top of Virtuos' earlier remasters of the game on PS3, PS4 and Vita, newer features and improvements are made to satisfy the purist. Having debuted on PlayStation 2 back in 2001, Tidus and Yuna's story has never been better presented - and PC adds a surprising suite of new options to bolster the experience. This PC release is the first time this entry has become available outside Sony's ecosystem, with a port that's once again tidily handled by Chinese developer, Virtuos. Gone are the days of tabbing in and out of the game to find what you’re looking for.Original story: PC is already home to superb renditions of the Final Fantasy series' back catalogue, but the arrival of Final Fantasy X and X-2 HD Remaster marks a very special moment.

We are refreshing this list to feature only cosmetic mods so please check back again soon for a much more helpful collection! 24. UPDATE: This list of mods is in the process of being totally re-worked, and can be considered currently out-of-date. Although should we really be gaming in the office? Undeniably yes, but let’s hit this list. Other mods are generally not allowed and not likely to be allowed, so before you go modding just keep this in mind! There are safe ways to mod but with FF14 it’s a dicey subject, so always do your research first.īe warned, if you’re going to dive into the world of FFXIV mods by yourself, you’re going to come up with a ton of NSFW content.īut worry not friend, I’ve filtered the most NSFW results from this list… although some of the most popular mods do happen to be a tad inappropriate for the workplace.
However there are a bunch of fantastic game mods that you can install that will improve the textures and shadings of the game, and anything that’s on your side is usually safe.
Seeing as Final Fantasy XIV is quite the MMO, you can expect that most mods are purely textures or UI improvements.Īnd these days it simply makes no sense to alter the core aspects of a game too much if you’re going to be playing with other people that have no mods installed, and the servers would just boot you out anyway.
