📋 About This Mod
I was inspired by "disable sharpening" mod for Elden Ring created by Ujard and for this I want to thank him a lot for his mod.
So I did it for Sekiro.

Tool used: Yabber
(https://github.com/JKAnderson/Yabber)
I used Yabber. DCX.exe to extract gxposteffect.shaderbnd.dcx, obtaining gxposteffect.shaderbnd.
And I extract it using Yabber.exe getting gxposteffect-shaderbnd folder with content.
Inside i replaced SharpenFilter.ppo with DLAA.ppo (simply name change; I deleted SharpenFilter, did a copy of DLAA that i named SharpenFilter)
