Nargen Flucht

A box of toys for in-game photography.

I wanted something that would allow me to keep the colors vibrant at all times while still allowing me to make the game grim and dark wherever I want. It's a stylized take on this universe and serves as a set of switchable tools that work in different lighting conditions.

It's not a strike preset. If your goal is to take screenshots, this requires a lot of micromanagement. If that's not your cuppa, technicolours and tonemap will do the heavy lifting for you.

Initially, the preset is for vanilla lighting. It is also the perfect complement to KNG ULM. If you play vanilla, I would recommend the Real Weather module, which helps emphasize foggy grimdark etc.

I mainly use the latest version.

(Here's a bonus tip: If you want the colors to 'fill in' more, then increase the gamma intensity of the tone map by around 0.550; that changes a lot with minimal effort.)

Install

• Download 3.4.1 Reshade Framework and install it.

• Place your preferred version ini file into the Witcher 3 exe folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\The Witcher 3\bin\x64
• Drag and drop MartyMcFly's (ported by Insomnia) Cross Processing shader into the reshade shader's Shaders folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Witcher 3\bin\x64\reshade-shaders\Shaders
• If it's the Grim version, put the lightroom, cross-process and HDR shaders into the Shaders folder (remove the fake HDR, comes with Reshade 3.4)
• Enter the repartition menu (Shift+F2) in-game and load the "unnamed" file. Also check and change the key in the repartition menu.
