I made some improvements to the graphics:

Better cpu load which brings a fps boost. Better shadow distance, resolution and shadow fading removed. Improved grass shadows in detail, which are quite pixelated by default. Improved grass density for better performance. Pop up details, fixed corpses. Better and optimized Lod distance of buildings and other details. Optimized lighting for better performance. Volumetric fog density reduced, visually more realistic and fps boost. Improved colors, fade removed. Post process effects like motion blur, grain, chromatic aberration and depth of field disabled. Optimized screen space reflections. Better and optimized TAA (anti aliasing). Optimized ambient occlusion for better performance. Added anisotropic filtering 16x for sharper textures at distance. Add sharp Filter. Ui scale set to 75%. FOV (Widescreen-) Fix added. Water and Tesslation optimized. I also noticed (mysterious man) that the hair often looks pixelated. This is now fixed. Better clouds. No Audio when minimized is fixed. Better Texture streaming.
