There&#8217;s quite a lengthy list of light changes big and small in version 4.0, but a few of the highlights you may notice include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>New Shaders for fog rendering and water<\/li>\n<li>Shaders are now 2X faster than older versions<\/li>\n<li>Clouds and fog affect lighting<\/li>\n<li>Improvements to sky colors and glass textures<\/li>\n<li>Compatibility fixes with ENB after Windows 11 updates<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Before taking the new Icenhancer for a test drive, you&#8217;ll have to install ENB&#8217;s July 2025 release and make sure you&#8217;re running GTA 4 patch 1.0.4.0 (a fresh install of the base game is for patch 1.0.8.0). The <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/gtaforums.com\/topic\/976691-gta-iv-downgrader\/\">GTA 4 downgrader<\/a> helps with that, rolling back to Icenhancer&#8217;s recommended build for the best mod performance.<\/p>\n<p>As for Icenhancer 4.1, the wait may be a while. Keilany&#8217;s Discord updates detail all the testing nightmares he encountered to get the mod&#8217;s upgrades working, as well as his collaboration with Vorontsov after Windows 11 broke damn near everything related to ENB, Ice 3, and earlier builds of Ice 4. Getting a public version out the door took a toll on the mod&#8217;s author, and while there are still Cinematic and Natural presets available to donors over Ko-Fi, there&#8217;s no public option for the stylized GTA 4 filters just yet.<\/p>\n<div class=\"product\"><a data-dimension112=\"acfdce2c-4b25-4738-983a-2d4aa4e8bf38\" data-action=\"Deal Block\" data-label=\"GTA 6\" data-dimension48=\"GTA 6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:557px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:100.00%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"FqtiPhsrR3aaYQc8VsYyTh\" name=\"gta6-square.jpg\" caption=\"\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/gta-4s-most-famous-lighting-mod-gets-its-first-major-update-in-11-years-brightening-up-liberty-city-from-cloud-to-ground.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"557\" height=\"557\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" credit=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/gta-6-all-the-rumours-in-one-place\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-dimension112=\"acfdce2c-4b25-4738-983a-2d4aa4e8bf38\" data-action=\"Deal Block\" data-label=\"GTA 6\" data-dimension48=\"GTA 6\" data-dimension25=\"\"><strong>GTA 6<\/strong><\/a>: Everything we know<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/grand-theft-auto\/gta6-map\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>GTA 6 map:<\/strong><\/a> Cruisin&#8217; Leonida<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/gta-6-cars-list\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>GTA 6 cars<\/strong><\/a>: The lineup<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/the-best-gta-5-mods\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>GTA 5 mods<\/strong><\/a>: Revved up<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/gta-5-cheats\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>GTA 5 cheats<\/strong><\/a>: Phone it in<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/gta-san-andreas-cheat-pc\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>San Andreas cheats<\/strong><\/a>: All the codes<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/grand-theft-auto\/gta-4s-most-famous-lighting-mod-gets-its-first-major-update-in-11-years-brightening-up-liberty-city-from-cloud-to-ground\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of Grand Theft Auto 4&#8217;s biggest and most ambitious mods just launched its first major update in almost 11 years.
