Warmth is a ReShade preset for Horizon Zero Dawn that enhances visuals with warmer tones and includes two versions: a full version with depth of field for screenshots and cinematics, and a lite version without DOF for smoother gameplay.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Two versions give you flexibility: use DOF for pretty screenshots, lite for smooth gameplay.
- Decent community traction with 84 endorsements and over 1,200 downloads.
- Simple ReShade preset—just drop it in and tweak to your liking.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in February 2021—might not be tested with the latest game patches or ReShade versions.
- No before/after screenshots or detailed settings breakdown in the description.
- Requires ReShade installed separately, which adds setup steps for newcomers.
For Horizon Zero Dawn players who want a warmer, more cinematic look without heavy performance hits—especially if you enjoy taking screenshots. The lite version is great for those who want visual polish while keeping frame rates up. Skip if you prefer vanilla colors or don't want to fiddle with ReShade.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have ReShade installed and working before adding this preset—it's a separate download from Nexus.
- Use the lite version for regular gameplay and switch to the DOF version only when you're taking screenshots or recording cinematics.
- If the preset looks too strong or too weak, tweak the intensity sliders in ReShade's in-game overlay to match your taste.
