📋 About This Mod

This Reshade mod removes "milky colors" mixed with fog, adds color/light balance and adds details with slight touch of additional antialiasing without oversharping the picture and insane contrast etc.

V2 - added greatly improved Antialiasing and picture sharpness (FXAA no longer being used), fixed some of the hair aliasing. Also fixed some reported issues with black colors being crushed in several situations and improved framerate drop (3-4fps instead of 7fps in v1. 2) > see V2 pics

V2 Lite - small adjustments to shadow details/visibility to improve details with new Path Tracing lighting method (introduced in patch v1. 62) - see media page for comparison screenshots

V2 Lite Updated - further improved details in shadow areas, especially useful if you're using Raytracing Overdrive optimizations mod

RR - removed AA solution in Reshade, please use preferred DLSS/FSR/DLAA solution in-game.

Nova LUT compatible - same looks as in RR version, Nova LUT compatibility and looks tested

V3 - tweaked some settings to improve details and decrease oversharpening, especially in low-light areas. Added new shader to improve overall details, shadows and grant additional depth to a scene.

Check IMAGES section for expected results.

To install:
