About this mod Machine translation

This little Sweetfx preset focuses on removing the yellow/orange tint that games can have in some situations, making sure that very bright colors don't pop, and overall slightly desaturating it, just needing a little sharpening to make the game look more crispy

As the name implies it looks more grim in the game, mostly by removing the yellow/orange tint and reducing the color without making it look lifeless.

If you have a very pale geralt mod it will make the Geralt even paler, so the Geralt will look more rough and rugged.

It was made while using vanilla lighting, but I've been using it with the lighting mod for a while now and it still looks great in my opinion.

(Added some vanilla pictures for those who want the look without lighting mode)

Yes, it's very slight, especially in Novigrad, but it's not meant to be noticeable and very different.

It doesn't have any special effects that take away fps, so it doesn't affect performance.

I'm using Reshade 1.1.0 with SweetFX 2.0, I don't know how it works with other versions, but if it has SweetFX it should work just fine :)

Install:

  • Unzip Weiwei Grim SweetFX
  • Place the SweetFX_Settings file into your witcher 3 folder: The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt/bin/x64/SweetFX

(If you can't get it to work, this is the reshade + sweetfx version I'm using)

  • Launch the game and enjoy the grimmer Witcher 3! :D

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
  3. Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.

Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
