These are obviously my preferences but you can adjust the level of AO as you see fit in the menu, although since they appear over certain HUD elements and transparent particle effects it can get too distracting imo. Highly recommend HD texture pack, combined with those 2 this game gets bumped to the ps3 generation.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Keeps the game's original colors intact—no more oversaturated or washed-out look
- Subtle AO adds depth without changing the vibe, perfect for purists
- Lightweight and simple, so it won't tank your FPS like heavy reshades
⚠️ Cons
- Only does ambient occlusion—no other effects like sharpening or color grading
- Last updated in 2022, so might not be compatible with the latest game patches
- Small userbase (22 endorsements) means less community testing and support
This is for players who want a subtle visual upgrade without altering the game's original aesthetic. If you've tried other reshades and found them too colorful or dramatic, this is a safe middle ground. Also great for those on lower-end PCs who want minimal performance impact.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the latest version of ReShade installed, as this mod relies on it.
- If you're not seeing the AO effect, check that you've enabled the correct depth buffer in ReShade settings.
- Try adjusting the AO intensity in the ReShade in-game menu to match your preference.
