Magic HDR ReShade preset for Nioh 2

I've been working on making a global HDR preset that can be applied to any game, and after messing with every HDR shader in ReShade for a while now and figuring out how to overcome any shortcomings I decided to release it for Nioh 2! This preset can be applied to any game though and so far it seems to work well with every game I've tried it with.

Installation:

(Updated for version 1. 3)

Download the newest version of ReShade at Home (reshade.me)

Launch the ReShade Setup file and select "Click here to select a game and manage it's ReShade installation"

Find "Nioh2 Application (nioh2.exe)" in the list of games that pops up and select it

Select "Direct3D 10/11/12" for the rendering API

Check the boxes for the shader packages you need to install which are:

Color effects by prod80

Insane-Shaders by Lord of Lunacy

FXShaders by luluco250

If you do not want to install all the shaders in each pack the specific shaders you need are:

PD8003_Curved_Levels.fx from Color effects

ReVeil.fx from Insane-Shaders

MagicHDR.fx from FXShaders

Copy my preset file "Global HDR 1. 3.ini" into the Nioh 2 folder, wherever you have game folders installed on your PC.

Launch the game and hit the Home key to pull up the menu for ReShade. It might have you go through a tutorial so just click through that. Once you have access to the menu select the drop down bar at the top and select Global HDR 1. 3.ini from the list.

And you should be good to go!

Update history:

1. 1 - Fixed a bug I found with the original shaders used. Replaced with 2 different shaders and rearranged shader order to fix overly bright areas.

1. 2 - Fixed a color banding problem I accidentally introduced in 1. 1 because of the shader order used. Rearranged and adjusted shaders to make the exact same levels as 1. 1 but without the color banding issue.

1. 3 - Completely fixed ALL color banding problems, and has better contrast/colors. Overall effect is much more accurate.
