📋 About This Mod
ReShade preset, the main purpose of which is to increase the clarity of the picture, while not brightening or darkening individual areas of locations.
First of all, I want to apologize for possible errors in the text. English is not my native language.
Description:
Most of the presets I saw looked good in screenshots, but in actual gameplay there were various graphical artifacts, especially too bright highlights or too dark shadows, even in sunny areas.
As you might have guessed, this preset makes all textures visually more detailed (unfortunately, nexusmod doesn't allow uploading high-resolution screenshots) and doesn't have the problems listed above. I added a slight contrast that doesn't darken the image and a slight cool tint that I think makes it a little more realistic.
Now an option has been added without changing the original shade of the game.
Install:
1. Download the "ED ReShade" preset from NexusMods and extract the contents of the zip file to your game's bin folder (eg SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Baldurs Gate 3\bin).
2. Download and start installing Reshade
3. Select "bg3_dx11.exe" from the game selection menu
4. Select "DirectX 10/11/12" for the rendering API
5. From the Preset menu, select "Browse" and navigate to the folder where you downloaded/extracted the "ED Reshade" Preset to earlier.
6. Reshade will scan the profile file and prepopulate the shaders required (Standard Effects, SweetFX by CeeJay.dk, AstrayFX by BlueSkyDefender
& Shaders by brussell)
7. Select Next and Finish to complete installation.
8. Play the game!
