Just read the description man. There are 2 files to download, it's very easy to install.

Installation
1. Copy ShadowBoost.asi and ShadowBoost.ini to the game's main folder, i.e. where Fallout4.exe is located.
2. In order to load asi plugins you need to have asi loader installed, so copy Fallout 4 asi loader (xinput1_3.dll) from this ditrib to the main game folder as well.

Tweaking
Settings in ShadowBoost.ini are pretty simple
fTargetFramerate - fps you need, shadow draw distance will be smootly adjusted until ingame fps meets this value. If you are playing with vsync or fps lock then you must set this value few fps lower (2 to 5) than your actual fps limit is, otherwise the boost may consider your locked fps as balanced by itself and stop increasing draw distance
fDistChangeSpeed - distance change speed, safe range is from 0.5 to 5.0, default = 1.0
fShadowDrawDistMin - min value of shadow draw distance, it will never be set lower than this value in the game, default = 2000.0
fShadowDrawDistMax - max value of shadow draw distance, it will never go above this value in the game, default = 15000.0

Personnally I tested it and while it did helped a tiny bit with fps, the game had weird graphics bugs with far objects.

im using a controller and i dont get the asi loader part

I see nobody had the balls to answer the og's response, even after almost three (3) years.

Since I have an ISSUE with the desrciptiiomn, which I read, Man, then Ii will ask for the same kind of clarificatiion as khaled_bibo did oh-so long ago.

Okay, Got it.

Okay, don't know what an "asi loader" is, but that's okay since as long as I can download one from somewhere, I don't know if I Really need to.

so copy Fallout 4 asi loader

Is this the name of a mod I cannot locate?

(xinput1_3.dll)

I recognize this, buy it's structure, to be a file name of some sort

from this ditrib

ditrib? What the fuque is a ditrib? Is that pronounced dye-tribe? dit-(whatever That is)rib?
I've never heard that term used.
(yes, I may be a little new to the modding scene)

RATHER than Just saying

"Just read the description man."

as if doing that will take ALL the wisdom, knowledge and expertise you have and impart to the og, offer some Actual assistance. Don't treat people as if they're idiots for having a question.

I'm absolutely certain that You at one point were new at this and had questions answered.

Can anybody help me since I'm Looking for the URL/actual location to the file "xinput1_3.dll".


Is there Anybody out there who can give me a good answer to that request?

Please stop being an idiot and use what's in your skull.

The description says :
Installation
1. Copy ShadowBoost.asi and ShadowBoost.ini to the game's main folder, i.e. where Fallout4.exe is located.


First you download this which is the highlighted link above the Installation steps :
"Download latest binaries: http://www.dev-c.com/fallout4/shadowboost/ "

The .dll .asi and .ini are the files you find in the downloaded file. The .ini file on Nexus is a config, you can download it too and replace the other from the file you downloaded on dev-c.
You then just put all those things in the game's folder : Fallout4, not in data, it says where the .exe used to launch your game is.

The part about asi loader is simply this :
2. In order to load asi plugins you need to have asi loader installed, so copy Fallout 4 asi loader (xinput1_3.dll) from this ditrib to the main game folder as well.

SO COPY the .dll file in FO4 main folder (where the .exe is)


It's very simple to install, yet you complain about it. Are you a child ? I just don't understand how people can't even follow simple steps, it's beyond me.

Can someone clarify what this means

> you need to have asi loader installed

What is ASI and where do i find it. Presumably ASI has install instructions so i won't ask about that.

ok so i found in the zip ShadowBoost.asi

However the instructions sim ply state that you move these files into the game folder.

This is very different to "loading".

Loading implies i need to somehow add this to a mod manager and load it into my plugins/esp load order so it runs accordingly.

It is that .dll file mentioned above. That is what it is/does.

Copying a file into a directory is also commonly called loading the file to the directory in PC talk.
