About this mod
***UPDATED JUNE 2018!!!*** I've designed this ReShade preset for my first playthrough of The Witcher 3. The graphics have been carefully enhanced in order to preserve the beauty that CDPR have created. It will basically make your game look like it's brand new again. For vanilla lighting, STLM, and B&W DLC. Enjoy! :)

TroubleShooting:
---------------------------
Please be sure to remove ReShade files from a previous install before
installing this preset.
Rename "d3d11.dll" to "dxgi.dll" if the game won't launch.
Disable any third-party programs, game boosters, FRAPS, etc.
These files worked flawlessly on my game and I hope the same for you.
Please seek the forum if you need help. Enjoy! :)
