📋 About This Mod
Have a version designed to be used with Extended View Distance (Colours intensity increases with this mod) and one with just standard.
The EVD version can be used without Extended View Distance and still look great but really shines with this mod. The standard version doesnt use as many effects to get the desired colour range so easier on the fps but i'd recommend the above mod with my EVD reshade if you want what it looks like in my images.
Just download the latest version of Reshade (https://reshade.me/) and place my .ini file in the "x64_dx12" or "x64_dx11" folder.
Have Tested also with Immersive Lighting and works well with this although i'd recommend using with vanilla lighting since I used this to set up all the colours in all the different zones so you may perhaps find a slight oddity since havent fully tested.
I Set this up while using Raytracing but have checked out the DX12 version without RT and still looks awesome in my opinion...

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community backing (375 endorsements, 14k downloads) — people are using it and liking it
- Designed to fix vanilla color issues everywhere, so you get consistent visuals without needing to tweak per-area
- Builds on the author's earlier work, which already played nice with lighting mods — good sign for compatibility
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in February 2023 — might not be tuned for the latest Skyrim updates or newer lighting mods
- Requires ReShade to be installed separately, which adds an extra step for newcomers
For Skyrim players who want to fix the game's dull or off-color look without diving into complex ENB configs. If you already use lighting mods and want a preset that plays well with them, this is worth a shot. Skip if you're looking for heavy graphical overhauls — this is purely a color correction preset.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have ReShade installed and set up for Skyrim before trying to apply this preset.
- If you use lighting mods like ELFX or Lux, test this preset with them to see if it complements your setup.
- Check the mod's posts or comments for any user-provided install tips, since the description lacks details.
