📋 About This Mod

HOW TO INSTALL THE RESHADE:

If you are a visual learner, you can download .pdf on the files page! <3

1. Install ReShade.exe

2. Launch it

3. Select Avatar. Frontiers Of Pandora in the game list (if you don't see it there, go to your game fodler where afop.exe is located. Copy the path, click browse, import the path, click next)

4. Click Update ReShade and effects

5. On the next page, you will be prompted on the bottom to choose a preset file (.ini)

6. Choose my preset (specifically, biolum.ini for the movie-like pandora)

7. Boot the game up, activate overlay.

8. On the very to click on the dropdown menu, choose my preset.

What this mod does:

- Boosts bioluminescence of almost all plants, and some gatherables and some wildlife.

- Replaces few useless plants with trees, so the kinglor is more dense, just like movie-forest would be.

- ReShade makes the game realistic, darker, and also helps with the bioluminescence boost, resulting in movie-like game.

This mod is paired with ReShade. The mod does work standalone, I reccommend using my ReShade preset whatsoever, for better results of the mod.

IF YOU DO NOT WANT RESHADE, JUST THE VEGETATION, INSTALL JUST THE ART FOLDER

INSTALLING THE MOD:

The path for the ''art'' folder -> Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\games\AFOP\blue\baked -> put art folder in the baked folder.
