📋 About This Mod

TLV is an easy to install advanced and High Quality Reshade. It brings out the vanilla effect dying light 1 offers, and enhances it with better SSAO ( Screen Space Ambient Occlusion) and small tonemap settings, and bloom. It also features

MAIN DISCLAIMER

There is no Depth of Field (DOF) setting I have used, if you see any blurry smokey effect, that is smoke. I added this because it makes more sense for a Harran ( a city with a LOT of car fires and dumpster fires ) to have more smog/smoke in the air. Thank you for understanding, it will be unnoticeable after a bit.

Update 1. 0

releasing update, not much issues.

2ND UNNECCESARY DISCLAIMER

in the screenshots, the fog looks weird. But once you get the mod, you can barely notice it, yet still admire it. Guaranteed.

What makes this mod different?

This mod does not just enhance the visuals with a slight tonemap change and atmospheric changing effects, it also adds more of a realistic SSAO effect(s). And adds other realistically accurate things, like more of an orange vibe at sunset, more smog/fog, etc etc.

How to install it?

useless info about me

Hi, I'm moxie. I make high res reshade mods for all Dying Light games. I have a history with making these, so expect high quality mods. I try and make them fit every atmosphere, making sure it all makes sense to not only look good in one set situation. And with this mod, it does the job perfectly.

You should check out my other mods, for Dying Light 2, and Dying Light: The Beast
