📋 About This Mod

A Reshade shader and preset that will bring more realistic light.

DESCRIPTION

Reshade True Light is a new reshade shader and preset that will bring more realistic light, with less color saturation, more details, a bit of darkness touch as well, see the screenshots.

This new ReshadeTrueLight shader include (all in one shader for better performance):

  • []color desaturation[/]

    []photorealistic Reinhard tonemap[/]

    []improved image detail (Clarity, Sharpen)[/]

    []Ambient Occlusion[/]

    []Auto Exposure[/]

    []Bloom[/]

    []Purkinje night colors[/]

    []Chromatic Aberration[/]

    Tested with Grim Dawn v1. 3. 0 and Reshade v6. 7. 3 full addon support.

    INSTALLATION

    • []install Reshade from the official reshade.me website as following: [/]

      []during the install select the Grim Dawn.exe file from the x64 directory (not the one from the parent directory).[/]

      []select Directx10/11 option. [/]

      []install the bare minimum (the reshadetruelight shader is include in this mod)[/]

      []now the tricky part: under Steam, right click on Grim Dawn, in the properties, in the launch options, select Play Grim Dawn (x64). Now Reshade should start from here. But if you want to use a shortcut, don't use the default shortcut, you need to create a new one.[/]

      []So create a new shortcut that point to your steam.exe (generally C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steam.exe),

      then in the shortcut properties add  -applaunch 219990 /x64,

      so the shortcut target should looks like "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steam.exe" -applaunch 219990 /x64 (depending of your steam.exe location).

      You may also change the icon from one of the grim dawn exe file. [/]

      []Now unzip the mod folder in the x64 directory of Grim Dawn. Then under Grim Dawn, you should see the Reshade top bar progress, then press Home key, and select this preset. You may also check the performance checkbox (at bottom right) if it is not checked. You can change some settings by uncheck this performance checkbox.[/]

      []That's all. [/]
