📋 About This Mod

Thanks a lot to PC GAMER magazine ! It's amazing for me to see that someone wrote an article.

The Witcher 3 Enhanced is designed to offer you the most immersive and real Witcher experience. It works with all lighting mods and with Vanilla lighting. It enhances the shadows, the lighting, the colors and the contrasts.

I PLAY WITH STLM BUT I ADAPTED A VERSION OF THIS RESHADE FOR WLM USERS, CHECK OUT THE FILES :)

Performance:

I made everything to get the best experience with the lesser fps cost. Normally, you lose 3 to 4 fps with the ReShade :) .

Installation steps:

  • [] Install the last version of Reshade ( https://reshade.me/ ), select your game (Location is "Witcher 3 -The Wild Hunt > Bin > x64") and click on the 3d10+ option, press yes when they'll ask you if you want default shaders and press ok. (Before, you must uninstall Reshade 2. 0 if you still have it)

    [] Drop the .ini file in your x64 folder (not the "reshade-shaders" folder)

    [] Open your game and press continue (or charge a save)

    [] Ingame, press shift+f2 and follow the Reshade tutorial.

    []Cool, you can now use the latest version of Reshade :)

    [] In Reshade's Home Menu, select the .ini file.

    [] Don't forget to adjust your gamma to your liking !

    []Vote/endorse if you like it and don't hesitate to comment what you think !

    Uninstallation steps:

    1. Go to your x64 folder

    2. Delete reshade-shaders folder, the .ini file, D3D11 and d3d11.dll .

    3. insult me in the comment section

    MY MOD LIST (important if you want the same results as my video):

    -Particles VII for STLM

    -The Mutantv5

    -Wolf Medallion

    -HD Reworked

    -No dirty lens effect

    -Better Oaks

    -Lullaby Lighting for Toussaint

    THESE ARE ALL SUPER AMAZING ;) THANKS TO THEIR AUTHOR

    PLEASE CONSIDER ENDORSING IF YOU LIKE IT ! It's free and it helps me a lot. It's the best way to thank me ^_^ !

⚠️ Cons

  • Disable any other ReShade presets you have active to avoid conflicts.
