You should (hopefully) be able to feel an improvement in how the game plays.

This is a patch, not a mod, and although the author claims to impliment HDR/Parallax mapping, I can't really see the difference. I can however feel an improvement in the way the game handles itself on my system.

EDIT: if you are a geforce FX owner (5700 & above) the big tipoff that it's working is the fact you can now choose the DX9 renderer in the game.
