📋 About This Mod
I made this little version for myself, and when I showed it to some friends they liked it a lot. I guess it doesn't hurt sharing to the world ;>
If you already have ReShade:
1. Use the Towers Remix.ini as the ReShade inside the game.
If you don't have ReShade:
Installing ReShade:
1. Download the ReShade installer from https://reshade.me
2. Run the installer, and select "Click here to select a game and manage its ReShade installation".
3. Wait for the list of .exe's to populate, or find the DarkSoulsIII.exe manually using the "Browse" button to the bottom right.
4. Click on "Direct3D 10/11/12".
5. From the list which pops up select all of the presets (to be safe, and to simply play around with them yourself. You can enable all effects throughout the installation).
6. Ensure all effects are ticked in the following windows by pressing "Check all", and click "OK". Do this multiple times for each window that pops up. ReShade is now installed.
Installing Towers Remix:
1. Download 'Towers Remix' through NexusMods.
2. Un-rar "Towers Remix.rar", and the "reshade-shaders" folder to your "Game" folder--the same location your DarkSoulsIII.exe is found. Overwrite if prompted.
3. Launch the game and if you installed ReShade correctly using the steps above, you'll have a notification in the top left of your screen.
4. When ReShade tells you it has loaded successfully, open the configuration menu using Shift+F2, or Home.
5. Below the "Home", "Settings", "Statistics" etc. tabs click on the long bar next to the "< >" arrows, and ensure "Towers Remix.ini" is selected from the drop-down menu.
6. Adjust your in-game brightness settings to taste. I'd recommend travelling to a dark location in-game to adjust accordingly.
7. Use Scroll-Lock on your keyboard to toggle the ReShade on and off. This hotkey can be adjusted using the configuration overlay.
Towers Remix Reshade is a visual overhaul for Dark Souls 3, remixing Obanons Incandescent ReShade 2.0 to better match the game's atmosphere. With 41 endorsements and 515 downloads, it's a niche choice for players seeking a more consistent, lore-friendly look.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Small but dedicated following (41 endorsements) — players who tried it stuck with it
- Focuses on atmosphere, which is a big deal for Dark Souls 3's moody world
- Based on a popular ReShade preset, so it's built on a proven foundation
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2021 — might not work with the latest game patches or ReShade versions
- No screenshots or detailed install instructions in the description, so you're flying blind
- Only 515 downloads — it's a niche preset, so community feedback is limited
For Dark Souls 3 players who want a more atmospheric, consistent look without heavy tweaking. If you're into lore-friendly visuals and don't mind a bit of trial and error, this is worth a shot. Skip if you prefer vanilla graphics or want a preset with more active support.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have ReShade installed first, then drop the preset files into your Dark Souls 3 directory.
- If the game crashes or looks off, try disabling other ReShade presets or updating ReShade to a compatible version.
- Test the preset in different areas (e.g., Firelink Shrine vs. boss fights) to see how it handles lighting changes.
