Better ReShade - OpenMW and TES3MP

All screen shots were taken with the same mod list. Only Better ReShade was removed for the vanilla screen shots

I was tired of having a very bright game, being able to see in caves that have no lights, never having a need for a torch, night eye or light spells. I play TES3MP on a potato PC that uses Intel HD Family Graphics and needed a way to do this without causing to much of a performance impact. So I set out to create a ReShade to fix that problem. Better ReShade is a high quality ReShade that will give morrowind a darker overall feel with colorful, warm lighting undertones and a nice sharp picture. I only use a handful of mods and I will post a list of what I use for the Screen Shots below.

Requirements

- Windows Operating System

- OpenMW 0. 44 or newer / TES3MP prerelease0. 7-alpha or newer

- ReShade 5. 2. 2 or newer

Installation

1. Download ReShade 5. 2. 2

2. Download Better ReShade

3. Unzip Better ReShade, and place Better ReShade and the reshade-shaders folders into your OpenMW (where the OpenMW.exe is) or TES3MP (where the TES3MP.exe is) directory

4. Install ReShade 5. 2. 2 (Or newer) and select either your OpenMW.exe or TES3MP.exe depending on which your using

5. Unzip the standard reshade shaders and place them into the reshade-shaders folder located in the main directory (where OpenMW.exe or TES3MP is)

6. Select OpenGL (You'll need to click on it)

7. For effects to install you only need to select

Colourfulness.fx

LumaSharpen.fx

PPFX_Bloom.fx

8. After Downloading shaders click on Edit ReShade Settings

9. Click the 3 dots next to Preset and select your Better ReShade.ini file from the directory you placed it in

10. Check the box next to Performance Mode and click OK

11. You can close the ReShade program, and launch your game (Highly Recommended to use Brighter Torches/Lights - installation is bellow)

*If you find that it is to dark, you can change the settings by hitting the home key on the keyboard and under PPFX_Bloom settings, set the Tone Map Curve down to either 3. 5 or 3. 0

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED - Brighter Torches/Lights (Not used in screen shots)
