About This Mod
This mod utilizes the ReShade Add-on system to streamline updates and avoid direct game file modifications. The source code is available on GitHub for those interested in seeing the inner workings or contributing to future improvements.
Original HDR Issues:
-
[]Broken Displaymapping: The game's final color grading LUT seems to apply tonemapping to a fixed peak that is much lower than 10,000 nits. The displaymapping at the end then tries to tonemap down highlights on an image with already significantly reduced highlights. The end result is highlights that undershoot massively on higher nit displays.[/]
[]Broken Brightness Slider Behavior: The game's brightness controls apply before the final tonemapping/grading LUT. This results in broken contrast/hues/saturation depending on what value you set the slider to.[/]
The Solution:
-
[]Fixed Tonemapping: Before displaymapping, peak brightness is boosted to pre-tonemapping levels, so that the display mapper can then map them properly to the expected peak. Peak brightness now behaves as expected and does not undershoot.[/]
[]Fixed Brightnesss Slider Behavior: The brightness slider has been adjusted to apply after tonemapping. This keeps contrast/hues/saturation more consistent.[/]
[]Enhanced User Control: Introduces interactive sliders for players to customize their visual experience to their liking, ensuring a more balanced and visually pleasing HDR presentation.[/]
Subjective Enhancements (Disable if you want to stick to original artistic intent):
-
[]The mod adds a small contrast boost with SDR EOTF Emulation being set to "The Lower ACES Min Nits" and with LUT Scaling being set to 100.[/]
[]Scaling is set to "Luminance" by default. This helps reduce some hue shifting and smearing in dark saturated colors.[/]
[]By default, Vanilla Film Grain and Noise have been disabled and a Custom Film Grain has been enabled instead that look less splotchy and weird.[/]
In the ReShade UI, you'll find a RenoDX window with options to customize your HDR experience:
