RealSky Cinematic ReShade for Saints Row 2

Hey! This is a WIP - WORK IN PROGRESS, even though I considered it good enough for release.

Beta version has been released.

The Saints Row 2 modding scene is very niche, so here is my contribution.

I created a beautiful and very artistic Reshade preset that is surprisingly performance-friendly.

You do, however, need to follow these exact instructions to obtain the same effect shown in the screenshots.

I updated the first seven screenshots of the image section to display the results. More screenshots will follow. Fulfill the requirements below to achieve the same visuals:

1. Download ReShade 6. 7. 3 or newer. (You need to search on how to install it).

2. Download the latest version of Juiced Patch (You need to search on how to install it).

3. Download the latest version of Gentlemen of The Row. (You need to search on how to install it).

4. Download the Saints Row Alternate Time of Day V7 (This requirement has been updated) (You need to search on how to install it).

5. Change your Saints Row 2 Display settings to the values shown in the images I annexed along with the screenshots, and disable the fog . These images are at the end of the list. Disable the HDR as well.

6. Run ReShade_Setup_6. 7. 3.exe and select the executable for SR2_pc.exe. Select DirectX9. Select install ReShade and effects. Then, install only the effects used by RealSky Cinematic Shade Beta, as (surprisingly?) applying many effects at once, even if they're not enabled, can cause the game to crash? I'm not sure that's the case, though.

7. Tweak display settings for extra performance if you're having low framerates. I tested this ReShade Preset extensively and found it to be both stable and performance-friendly.

1. Download ReShade 6. 7. 3 or newer. (You need to search on how to install it).

2. Download the latest Juiced Patch. (You need to search on how to install it).

3. Download the latest version of Gentlemen of The Row. (You need to search on how to install it).

4. Download the Saints Row 1 Weather mod V2. (You need to search on how to install it).

5. Change your Saints Row 2 Display settings to the values shown in the images I annexed along with the screenshots, and don't disable the fog . These images are at the end of the list.
