livid - reshade preset

Added 2021-06-10 00:05:17 +0000 UTC

hello everyone!

i created a reshade preset. this preset was made primarily for scenery shots but it can be also used for gameplay (more on this later).
i tried to give my game more realistic colours and get rid of as much blue tint as i could without having a sepia tint instead. it’s still colourful and saturated but i tried to mute the overall saturation down a little bit, too.

the preset screenshots are on the left side and the original ones on the right.

the preset was created with reshade 4.9.1 and you will need the following shaders for this to work correctly:

- qUINT_bloom.fx
- qUINT_lightroom.fx
- Clarity.fx
- Curves.fx
- Technicolour2.fx
- FakeHDR.fx
- MXAO.fx
- DOF.fx
- MagicBloom.fx

if you want to use this preset in live mode i recommend to deactivate ‘MXAO’ and ‘MagicDOF’.
MXAO creates extra shadows that also show on the sims skin and look very weird.
MagicDOF is responsible for the focus depth that can be very annoying while playing and makes the UI blurry in some angles.

if someone has the motivation to add hotkeys for these shaders i wouldn’t mind if you reupload the preset with those!

t.o.u.: none.
you can do what ever you like with this preset and use it as a base for your own. i don’t mind if you reupload the edited version but i would really appreciate to be mentioned. if you use this for your screenshots i would be more than happy to see those 🥰
