Oblivion Remastered PC: impressive modernisation blighted by dire performance problems

The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered utilizes an Unreal Engine 5 wrapper to enhance the original game, but it carries over some of the original's issues and suffers from significant performance challenges, including frequent stuttering. Digital Foundry analyzed the remaster against the original 2006 version, highlighting advancements in graphics but also noting that the remaster struggles with limited polygon budgets and basic effects. The remaster's performance is inconsistent, especially on mid-range CPUs, leading to poor experiences even on high-end hardware. Disabling hardware RT-based Lumen global illumination can improve performance by about 35%, but at the cost of visual quality. Lowering settings yields only marginal performance improvements, and the game fails to deliver an attractive experience compared to the original. A recent patch did not resolve the stuttering issues, indicating that fundamental CPU-related problems remain unaddressed.

Free GTA San Andreas Mod Adds Full PC VR Support to 2004 Classic

Modder Holydh has released the GTA: San Andreas Definitive Edition – 6DoF UEVR Plugin, which adds modded PC VR support to the Steam version of the game. This release follows the indefinite delay of the Quest version of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas VR by Meta and Rockstar. The plugin features full first-person support, 6DOF motion controls, and camera improvements for gameplay and cutscenes. It uses an upgraded version of modder Praydog's UEVR injector, compatible only with the Steam version of San Andreas Definitive Edition, and not with versions from the Epic Games Store or Rockstar Launcher. Holydh believes the mod is safe from legal scrutiny as it is free and does not use Rockstar's proprietary files.
