3 Atmospheric Shaders for Elden Ring by SkonteJonte

TURN THE PRESET OFF IN THE MAIN MENU. You can change the hotkey in the options (I usually bind it to "scroll lock").

This mod uses, across all 3 versions:

- sharpening: This highlights distant details and also smaller details of closer

objects. The specifics and intensity change between versions.

- General colour and brightness manipulation: This one is pretty different between versions. I generally

slightly increased the vibrance and saturation (except for the dark and gritty one). I also made the shadows and blacks a bit darker and, lastly, changed the colour tint slightly.

- light rays: I love light rays, and I think that by adding them here (the game already contains them) it becomes more dynamic and feels like it is present more. Haha, I don't know why.

- a strange thing: I can't remember the name of it, and it's really new. It makes bright

and dark areas affect areas around them, making it more of the

co-responding trait.

Before I tell you about the installation process, this is an important message:

I stand with the people of Ukraine. They need our help now more than ever. Here's a link to a website that can tell you how you can help and where you can donate to help them in this terrible situation:

Installation:

- For this mod, you will need a program called "ReShade".

- When you are going to select the rendering api it uses, select DirectX 10 and above.

- Additionally, install (it shows up in the normal installation process) all shader packs. Just check all the boxes.

- To activate the shader, you need WinRar. Just unpack what you installed

from this mod page, then place it where you want it. To activate it,

you need to open ReShade and at the top of the long list of effects,

just double-click on the preset name and find it in your files. There

are tutorials on how to do this too, if it is confusing.

Video tutorial:

- I have made a youtube tutorial for how to download and use the program:

Thank you for reading everything that I wrote. If you like it, it would mean

the world to me if you show other people, make videos, submit photos,

endorse or share your thoughts. I have been making shaders for a long

time now, but my appreciation for the entire process and all the

engagement never dwindles.
