📋 About This Mod

A color balancing reshade that cleans up the look of ME3.

A color balance, smoothing, and bloom focused reshade that makes ME3 look much better.  I focused on brightening the blue and orange tones in the game to give it a classic sci-fi feel.

Installation:

  • []Get Reshade if you don't already have it. If you already have it installed for a game, skip to step 8.

    []Copy your vanilla binaries folder and set it aside just in case.

    []Launch Reshade, and go to Click Here to Select a Game and Manage its Reshade Installation.

    []Select Mass Effect3.exe.  If it doesn't show up, select Browse... and go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Mass Effect 3\Binaries\Win32 or the bin in your steamapps folder

    []When it asks you which API, choose Direct 3D 9

    []Install each shader that you want to use, if you want to modify it.

    []When it's done, launch your game and you should notice immediately that there is a prompt on the top of the screen to teach you how to use

    reshade.  I recommend going through it but you don't have to.  But check that it runs correctly on startup.  Close the game.

    []Unzip my file and drop it in C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Mass Effect 3\Binaries\Win32 or the bin in your steamapps folder

    []Start up the game again.  Click your keyboard Home key, and under the Home tab that comes up, go to the dropdown menu at the top.  Select Lunar.ini.  Press the Home key again to close the menu.

    []Enjoy the game!

    []If you don't like it, uninstall it. Delete the Lunar.ini file.

Want to use this for the other Mass Effect games, or Legendary Edition?  Or another game?  Do this:

  • []Press the home key to pull up the reshade menu in your desired game.  Go to the dropdown menu at the top.  You can go to any game folder, not just the game you are playing, and select the desired preset .ini you are using in another game.  You have to have the proper shaders installed (step 5 & 6).  If you are like me and you just check all the boxes then it will be fine.  I do not guarantee that it won't look terrible or that it will work perfectly.
