Better bloom and lightning effects. Use refilter HDR and DPX.
============
describe:
============
Here's my take on better graphics. I use a combination of SweetFX + Reshade Filters. Looking at the pictures, better colors, better bloom and HDR.
The graphics aren't "overdone", just clearer. No frame drops this setting.
=============
Install:
=============
Very simple.
- Unzip the file
- Execution file: ReShade Setup.exe
- Select your exe orientation (e.g. [Steam]\steamapps\common\XCOM 2\Binaries\Win64)
That's all. You can turn the filter on/off using the "SCROLLLOCK" key game.
=====================
Updated from 1.0 to 1.1
=====================
V1.1 uses the new RESHADE 3.0 filter. Therefore, you must delete the file "ReShade.fx" in the directory:
[Steam]\steamapps\common\XCOM 2\Binaries\Win64. If you don't delete this file, the shader will be double loaded.
As in 1.0, all optional filters work with 1.1. Fully compatible.
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.
