Install Instructions:

  • []Install the latest version of reshade use the default shader packs but feel free to choose whatever ones you enjoy, pointing to the "DD2.exe" located in "\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Dragons Dogma 2"

    []Select DirectX 10/11/12

    []Select the "qUINT" shader pack along with the defaults

  • Hit "HOME" when your game starts to open reshade, select the preset dropdown and select the "CleanLight.ini" Done!

    There are additional options to adjust brightness and saturation on the fly just use your    [    ,    ]    ,   and   \   keys as shown below to the right of the shader list.

    You may also toggle all effects with the "DEL" key

    If you don't care about these additional options and the previous version worked for you the "CleanLightV2" will always be available in the old files

    The game has a very aggressive auto exposure so don't be alarmed if at times your game may look like this

    The game will swap between this overblown look and normal as shown below depending on camera angle or time of day, nothing I can do about it!

    Tested on LG OLED and ASUS OLED panels, can confirm HDR INK BLACKS! please use the tint remover to achieve the same effect.
