Fine-Tuned Game Optimization
This mod lets you disable some Unreal Engine 5 features, such as Lumen, anti-aliasing and virtual shadow maps. As a result, the game's performance will rise sharply.
Installation:
- Download the mod archive and extract it.
- Choose the profile you want from the archive, Performance or Balanced. Copy it to %localappdata%\Townfall\Saved\Config\Windows\, replacing GameUserSettings.ini.
- Launch the game.
If you prefer, you can use an alternative option.
A separate mod is designed to fight microfreezes and stuttering.
Disabling Post-Processing
Removes various effects such as depth of field blur, film grain, chromatic aberration and lens distortion. After installing the mod, the image becomes clean and as sharp as possible.
Installation:
- Download the mod archive and extract it.
- Copy the Engine.ini file to the folder located at %LOCALAPPDATA%\Townfall\Saved\Config\Windows, replacing the existing one.
- Right-click Engine.ini, select "Properties," check the "Read-only" box, then click "Apply" and "OK."

These are best installed by those who have already finished Silent Hill: Townfall and want to experience the game in a new way or reach a new ending.
Time Speed Control and Infinite Stamina
Lets you speed up the game world and slow down time at will. This way, you can move around the town quickly and gain an advantage in combat and stealth sections. As a bonus, the mod removes stamina drain.

Balance Mods
Mods like these are usually recommended for those who have already explored the game and want to experiment with what it can do. But in Silent Hill: Townfall, you may get stuck because of the dull stealth and the not-so-convenient combat system. For you, installing mods that make the gameplay easier may be the way out that lets you finish the story mode.
More Effective Medical Supplies
After installing this mod, almost all medical items will restore more health. The exact numbers:
- Gauze — 50 health points instead of 25;
- Sterilized Gauze — 100 health points instead of 50;
- Painkillers — 75 health points instead of 40.
The First Aid Kit's effectiveness stays the same: it will still restore all 100 health points.
Installation:
- Download the mod archive and extract it.
- Copy the extracted files to SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Townfall\Townfall\Content\Paks\~mods. If there is no ~mods folder, create it.
- Launch Silent Hill: Townfall.
Infinite Ammo and Consumables
These mods make the game noticeably easier: there is no longer any point in searching every corner for an extra bullet or bandage. However, you lose the feeling that you are trying to survive in a hostile world, and the game starts to resemble a standard first-person action game. On top of that, the first mod lets you fire without reloading.
Complete Invisibility to Enemies
This mod makes stealth sections easier. Once it is installed, enemies can no longer see Simon even at point-blank range. A great choice for those who are annoyed by hiding from enemies. The mod also lets you calm aggressive monsters down with a single key press.
Controls:
- F5 or Numpad 4 — toggle invisibility. Press again to turn it off;
- F6 or Numpad 5 — reset enemy aggression.
You can assign other keys if you wish.
Increased Weapon Damage
Significantly boosts the effectiveness of your arsenal. The author paid special attention to throwables such as bottles and bricks — with them, you can take enemies out with the first accurate headshot. Damage for other weapons is increased by roughly 2–2.5 times, although the exact multiplier depends on the weapon.
Also take a look at the mod that makes melee weapons as durable as possible. They will stop breaking.
Convenient Block
This mod lets you cancel your own melee attacks with a block. Thanks to this, you don't have to wait for the swing animation to finish if an enemy suddenly attacks, which makes the combat system noticeably more responsive.
Cheat Mods
These let you enable god mode, kill enemies in one hit and much more. But using cheats can quickly kill your interest in the playthrough, so think twice before turning them on.
Cheat Menu
A convenient way to activate cheats with a single key press through a dedicated menu. To open it, press Backspace.
