⚙️ Usage tips and adjustments

• **Anti-Aliasing and Text Blurring**: Anti-aliasing in Reshade (`DLAA_Plus.fx`) may cause in-game text and menus to be slightly blurred, and is designed to soften the edges of grass, rocks, and trees. If you don't like this effect, you can **uncheck** `DLAA_Plus.fx`.
• **The picture is too dark? **: If you think the picture is too dark, you can try **uncheck** `Vignette.fx` (vignetting effect) to see if it improves.
• **Shadows & Menus/Cutscenes**: Enhanced shadow effects (MXAO and RTGI) may have display issues in game menus and cutscenes. This is a known technical limitation and cannot be completely avoided.
• **Quick Switch**: For convenience, the switch for the shadow effect has been **pre-bound to the END key**. When shadows interfere with menus or cutscenes, you can press the END key at any time to switch. The author believes that this little trouble is worth it for the excellent picture quality during the game!
