📋 About This Mod

Introduction

  • []Hello everyone, this is a ReShade 3 preset I tweaked for use with Surreal Lighting. Clear Sight makes subtle but noticeable changes to your game. Darkens shadows for immersive days, nights and interiors. Brightens up the sky to give some life to the somewhat dead environments but not to the point of blinding you. Clears up and sharpens the image but no worries, it shouldn't make your textures look unbelievably noisy. And lastly, it stays true to Surreal Lighting's color scheme with slight enhancements, no strong blue, red or green tints. So no over saturation, no blurriness, no pitch black darkness and no blinding lights. Simply Clear Sight.

Requirements and Recommendations

  • []Surreal Lighting - Absolute necessity, without it the preset will look quite crappy

  • []The fGamma setting under the section located in your "SkyrimPrefs.ini" needs to be set to 0. 9200. It should look like this "fGamma=0. 9200". Your "SkyrimPrefs.ini" can be located in your Documents \ My Games \ Skyrim Special Edition (Please note this isn't actually obligatory but it's what my in-game brightness is set at. You can simply change your in-game brightness to your preference)  []Nights and interior lighting. This is preference. I personally use Realistic Lighting Overhaul ( interior plugins only ). You can use ELE instead, may be darker though, I haven't done much testing with it. You can use ELFX but not with the ELFX Enhancer plugin or Weather plugin. If you believe nights aren't dark enough, you can download Darker Nights which is now compatible with the latest version of Surreal Lighting and True Storms.

     

Installation

  • []Download ReShade 3 and begin the installation.

    []Click "Select Game" and navigate to your Skyrim Special Edition folder ( Not the one in your documents ). Now double click "SkyrimSE.exe"
