📋 About This Mod
This preset will completely change the look of the game during gameplay, whether in missions during the day or at night, as there are also some shaders that will activate when you press your "N" key for night vision. For the preset to work correctly, it is necessary that you correctly configure your Depth buffer in Reshade.
For the preset to work correctly, make sure your Reshade depth of field settings are correct, I won't teach it here as there are many tutorials on YouTube.
Keep in mind that it will consume some fps, if it drops too much for you, just disable some shaders, such as MXAO and CinematicDOF.
The shader sequence matters, so don't change it. Inside the folder there are 2 example images of how your shaders were without night vision and with night vision.
