📋 About This Mod
This Reshade Preset was made using the Reshade Framework version 3. 1. 0
Without my future support this and earlier Reshade versions will be the only frameworks this preset will guaranteed function on.
The rest will need to be tested. Happy modding! :)
This is a quick preset I whipped up that brings the vanilla lighting and post-processing effects up to modern standards. You should notice higher quality shadows and lighting, along with more saturation and colour in some areas. Please refer to the images for ingame comparisons. Oh, the blood looks really cool too.
