📋 About This Mod
A Reshade preset that bring more realistic lighting.
Reshade True Light is a preset for Reshade that will bring more realistic lighting, using Reshade shaders.
It include image sharpen, obscurance and irradiance, CAS hdr, bloom, filmic tonemap, and some color desaturation.
It is a version special for Fallout 3, with performance in mind.
Installation
- download last version of Reshade from its official reshade.me website (the full add-on support version, as it is a single player game).
- during the install, select the fallout3.exe from the list, DirectX 9 (it will not work if select DirectX10 with Fallout3), and all the shaders.
- place this ReshadeTrueLight.ini preset in the Fallout 3 directory.
- at game start, Reshade should start as well, then press Home key to open the Reshade menu and select this preset. Be sure to check the little "performance mode" checkbox at the bottom right of the Reshade menu, or to uncheck it if you want to modify the preset settings.
Tested with Reshade 5. 9. 2.
On the screenshot, I also use some HD textures mods, like NMCs_Texture_Pack, Hi-Res Weapons and Enhanced Night Sky, amongst some others mods.
