Perseverance reshapes the sky.

TES:Skyrim-Tough Shadows

Fortitude ReShade is my WIP pass on realistic Skyrim. This is part of my "Aeonic" series of ReShades, in which I visit various games and do photorealism myself. When working on this preset, I deliberately limited myself to Noble Skyrim (and the switchihg lighting mod) so that the user could understand what was going on, rather than "hyper-modding" it and looking like it was going to get nothing. I figure if I can make it look trivial, your mod should make it look great, and every result will be unique.

This ReShade preset focuses on realistic tones and contrast, along with crisp details and dark shadows for the ultimate photo realism. I'll continue to revisit ReShade and hopefully make further corrections to the look, but I'm very happy with the current look!

You can find ReShades I've created for other games here. You can also visit my Twitter to follow anything I might be working on.

Note: Based on a theme I developed for myself, comparison screenshots are taken from a natural player's perspective so users of ReShade know exactly what to expect. I intentionally used a small number of mods (listed below) when working on this ReShade. This avoids the impact of increased FPS and minimizes the specific requirements to replicate the look of ReShades.

Pattern used!

The noble sky.

Various lighting modules, enhanced lighting and effects are shown in the screenshots. (Your results may vary).

Additional Information

Settings: 1080p @Maximum Settings/Snow Shadow Off.

The shaders folder contains the custom shaders used in this ReShade, it's crucial to cover everything with what I provided!

TES: Skyrim - Fortitude ReShade

Fortitude ReShade is my WIP pass at a photorealistic Skyrim. This is part of my 'Aeonic' series of ReShades, where I visit various games and make my own take at photorealism. I deliberately restricted myself to Noble Skyrim (as well as switchihg lighting mods) while making this preset so users can get an idea of what is going on rather than have it "ultra modded" and looking nothing like what you'll get. I figured if I can make it look good on nothing, your mods should make it look outstanding and each outcome will be unique.

This ReShade preset focuses on realistic tones and contrasts as well as crisp details and deep shadows, ultimately photorealism. I will continue to revisit the ReShade and wonk of further correction to the look but I'm pretty pleased with how it is looking at the moment!
