GTA IV iCEnhancer 2.1 Adds Indirect Lighting, Less Video Card Murder

Hayssam Keilany, the man behind the iCEnhancer mod for Rockstar Games' Grand Theft Auto IV, based on the ENB series shader mod from Boris Vorontsov, has released new screenshots for the latest 2.1 build and notes the addition of indirect lighting and less of a chance that your video card will die in the process.

One of the real highlights of the new 2.1 mod is that it now supports all versions of GTA IV including the Episodes from Liberty City. This supposedly makes the mod a lot more compatible for people running GTA via Steam.

DSO Gaming also notes that the addition of indirect lighting creates a mysterious glow under the wheels. Supposedly this glow can be spotted in the following screenshots. Maybe my eyes were too busy being seduced by all the high-res textures and super-sexy reflections to notice said glow.

Anyways, the latest version of the iCEnhancer mod is still being tweaked and will arrive at a later date. You can check out the new screenshots below or visit the local GTA IV modding website to pick up a previous version of the mod. It kind of goes without saying that you need a very hefty PC setup to utilize the full effects of the iCEnhancer and get the game to look anywhere near as good as it appears in the screenshots below.
