About this mod Machine translation
This Reshade preset aims to make something I haven't seen anywhere else; tired of making small or even unnecessary changes that are on the other hand overdone and without a clear sense of aesthetic, decided to do this to a game that truly deserves it.
About presets:
I want to make every frame of the game beautiful enough that it feels dignified to be seen again.
Not the most complex preset we've seen, because there's no need. What exactly did I do? Wanting to make the most realistic lighting behavior possible; not a dull "real life" thing, which is impossible as any actual monitor, TV, projector or anyone could show something similar (and personally don't believe it is necessary either) but by not maintaining the original look it doesn't detract from it. If you like these words, it's friendly but an improvement.
The perception of light through our monitors is more than just a variable, so replicating them is the best way to make things real, and none of them are "objective"; I wanted to think of the game in terms of high ISO photography concepts, forcing dark tones, giving him the original presentation and color; Valen's warm areas are warm, the cooler Skellige is cold, everything is as it should be, but more.
Installation instructions:
Make sure you have the Wiedzmin Lighting mod, or download and install it from here: Click here
Please note that this is a very demanding preset and you may lose about 20fps, probably more!! So it is only recommended for at least gtx1070ti users, or people crazy like my graphics
That said, I highly recommend the Extreme Extreme Graphics Option , White Grass on Ultimate (if you see it popping up at some camera angles, you'll have to change the GrassDistanceScale to 1.5 in the User Settings Notepad), Grass Distance Mod , and HD Rework Project or UHD Project if you're playing at more than the native resolution of 1080p
Download the injector and install dxgi.dll from the official webpage: Click here (no other files required)
Paste the preset file contained in the .dll into the game path where the game executable file is located
Make sure that in the game menu
These post-processing settings are like this: Bloom: Off Ambient Occlusion: Off (old version of HBAO+) Vignetting: Off Sharpness: Off (Low if you like it) And toggle the "Save system gamma" option "on" (under Graphics options), calibrate your monitor to srgb color space and 2.2 gamma
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- 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.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- 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.
