Assetto Corsa "Vision VHS" preset for Reshade release

Hi all,

Here is the final version of my "Vision VHS" preset for ReShade. This preset was created using my PPFilter AC Vision Reality 1.4.6 for Pure gamma.

You don't need the RTGI shader for Reshade, but it is compatible if you want to fry your graphics card :)

You can try it with another PPFilter, but I can't guarantee the result.

Tested on CPS 0.3.0p140 and Pure 3.0.3

Please read the Reshade Installation section carefully; it contains some important tips you need to know to have the best gaming experience.

For people who are just starting Assetto Corsa with mods I recommend this tutorial which explains to you how to install "Content Manager" "CSP" and "Pure"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=22CbO5ISEGc

Copy the two folders "extension" and "system" found in AC Vision Reality 1.4.6.zip/rar to the root of the Assetto Corsa folder then launch Content Manager and follow the steps in numerical order as on the screen.

Note: Do not drag the .zip/.rar into Content Manager, install the ppfilter manually.

1 - Configure CSP in Content Manager

2 - Select AC Vision Reality 1.4.6 in Content Manager

____________________________________________________________

In-game configuration 1:

Open "Pure PP" and verify that the settings have been loaded correctly

The installation of Vision Reality remains unchanged. Some screenshots are from my old posts. However, I have updated some important screenshots.

If loaded correctly you should have this in the "Light" tab

If is not, click on "IMPORT" then load the "AC Vision Reality 1.4.6" file located in: X:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\assettocorsa\extension\config-ext\Pure\AC Vision Reality 1.4.6

____________________________________________________________

In-game configuration 2:

In game make sure the exposure is 100%

Then i strongly recommend that you open "Pure PP" -> "General" tab and try to change the color temperature values ​​then the saturation because it also depends on the configuration of your screen and it can change a lot. My settings were made on a 4k QLed TV.

Example: screenshot 6500k temperature (default)

Screenshot 5500k temperature

Screenshot 7500k temperature 

The auto-exposure may not load correctly, you just have to check "VAO Adaption" “AE + CBE” and put “5.500" in Target” and “0.500" in Mix” then save.

• Helmet: You will find the download link in the description of this video. I recommend the "VisorXForce_v1.0.5" version.

Reshade and preset installation:

To be installed once "Content Manager" "CSP" and "Pure" are installed

1- Click on "Reshade_Setup_6.5.1" or "6.6.2" newest

2- Click on "Browse"

3- Search and select "acs" in X:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\assettocorsa

4- Click on "Next"

5- Select "DirectX 10/11/12 then "Next"

6- Click on "Browse"

7- Select "AC Vision VHS preset" which is in "AC Vision Reality 1.4.6.zip/.rar" and you can put it in the root of the game "Assetto Corsa"

8- Reshade will automatically download and select the shaders I have enabled in the preset then click "Next"

9- Then "Finish"

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Enable Reshade in-game

1- If the installation went well you should see a Reshade pop up when you launch the game

2- Once the game loads, press the "Home" key on your keyboard and you should see this then click on "skip tutorial"

3- You must have these shaders enabled automatically (14 shaders)

4- Press "Esc" to close Reshade and you are ready to play.

IMPORTANT MESSAGE

To reduce the VHS effect, I recommend unchecking these shaders:

• MultiLut

• Prod80_02_Cinetools_Lut

• RetroTint

• CA ChromaticAberration

• ArtifactColors

Alternatively, try unchecking the shaders one by one to see what suits you best.

Note: I recommend you change the key that opens the Reshade menu because the default one ("Home") also opens the game's "console" menu.

To change the Reshade menu key, do the following:

1- Open Reshade with the "Home" key and then go to the "Settings" tab

Optional for RTGI shader

To improve performance with the RTGI shader, I advise you to add this command in Reshade:

in the first box: MARTYSMODSTAAU_SCALE

in the second box: DLSS_PERFORMANCE

Note:

If you encounter any problems, please take screenshots of your game with the "light" menu in "Pure Config" and Reshade if you use it, post them on this site or elsewhere, and send me a private message. Thanks in advance.
