An atmospheric RESHADE preset

[FlyingAcehole]

 

Hi everyone,

because i couldn't find a suitable reshade preset, I created one myself. Have fun with it.

Installation:
Install RESHADE and tick all shaders.

Then select my preset.

In the game you have to press the POS1 button once

Thanks!

 

This is what I've been using for the last 8 months. The FPS hit is reasonable, and it brings up the details in the shadows without washing them out.

How do I activate Reshade in game - what exactly is the POS1 button?

Reshade is a third-party post processing tool. It needs to be installed. 

 

Reshade webpage is here https://reshade.me/

I am aware of that.  I've installed it but not sure how to activate it - and was curious as to the instruction 'in the game you have to press the POS1 button once', as I've no idea what a POS1 button is!

Try the HOME key. This is the same key as POS1... depends on the keyboard layout/country.

All good now.  I hadn't loaded it properly so no amount of key pressing was going to activate it!  It's a great preset in terms of clarity and definition of the details but it does wash out the colours somkewhat.  Anty thoughts on how to restore reds/blues whilst retaining the remaining effects?

errrrrrrrrrrrr...........After selecting your preset, only two options are ticked, right?
