📋 About This Mod
Cinema HDR is making The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt look more cinematic. Some of the effects included are HDR, AO, DOF and Film Grain.
CINEMA HDR Version 2. 6
If you have screenshots from this mod please share them with us.
This is stable release of Cinema HDR ReShade preset. Effects included but not limited to HDR, DoF, FXAA, Bloom, Ambient Occlusion and Film Grain. As usual if you see any bugs please report, if it looks odd on your screen and you are 100% sure it's calibrated properly then please let me know ASAP. I will still work on improving this mod and optimising it terms of performance without quality loss. See below for the list of mods that I consider essential as well as recommended mods.
Update 2. 6: Bug fixes: Adjusted AO in, it was causing outline around witcher, now this is drstically reduced. Vingette shouldn't be so strong now. Adjustments to Shadows, midtones and highlights. Some changes to the color atmosphere (let me know what you think)
Update 2. 5:
Fixed issue when in Skellige, high in the mountains, bright sun would make Geralt really, I mean really dark. Slightly optimised performance Removed Ambient light as it was causing some serious issues

If you find bugs please report them. I am still working on this preset, making it better pretty much everyday.
Before(Top)/After(Bottom):
P. S. I didn't test this mod with STLM or any other lighting mods. This is optimised strictly for vanilla lighting, but if you do test it please share with all of us. If you have video please send it to me, I will post it here.
Installation:
Install ReShade version '1. 1. 0. 962' and overwrite the ReShade folder in your Witcher bin/x64 folder with the content of my preset (unpack it first). If you experience long loading times this is because ReShade64.dll was renamed to d3d11.dll. Rename it to d3d9.dll instead and verify your game installation. I will make detailed guide soon.
Recommended settings in-game as most of these are included in the preset:
Anti-Aliasing Off Bloom Off DoF Off Sharpening Off
Be prepared for about 20fps loss. I am working on optimisation and also considering moving to ReShade 2. 0 Test rig is: i7 5820K, GTX 1070, 16 GB DDR4
Essential mods in my opinion:
Atmospheric nights - www.nexusmods.com/witcher3/mods/1305/? - if you are using this mod I suggest to set the darkness level to 32-35 The Witcher 3 HD Reworked Project - www.nexusmods.com/witcher3/mods/1021/? High Quality Faces - www.nexusmods.com/witcher3/mods/1024/?
