SmeaGhoul Lighting Mod Enhancer

This is a ReShade preset I've been using and continuously working on while screenshotting in TW3 since the launch of the game back in 2015. The preset has gone through many ports to new ReShade builds thus it's using some of the old shaders not seen in other presets. Three different Witcher 3 lighting mods, STLM, Elder Blood Lighting Mod and Wiedzmin Lighting Mod have all altered the way this config ended up looking. In general this preset will work with any 

of those previous

3 lighting mods but has been fine-tuned to it's current stage on

Wiedzmin Lighting Mod

thus it's recommended to use it as base.

INSTALLATION

First download and install

Wiedzmin Lighting Mod

Now download SmeaGhoul, extract the file and drop the contents of the SmeaGhoul folder to: \The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt GOTY\bin\x64 (Or wherever your Witcher 3 executable is located) Open up the game and press Shift+F2 (Follow the tutorial if it's your first time installing or using ReShade) Lastly choose SmeaGhoul.ini from the dropdown menu And you're good to go!
