Installation instructions:
1. Go here and download the current version of the ReShade Framework. (Last tested with ReShade Framework v1.0.0.) Extract the following three items from that download to the x64 folder in your Witcher 3 directory: - ReShade64.dll - ReShade.fx - ReShade folder
2. Download Cinematic Lighting Mod from the Files section of this page. Open the download and copy everything into the ReShade folder you just added to x64. When prompted, choose to overwrite any files.
3. Back in the x64 folder, rename ReShade64.dll to dxgi.dll. If a dxgi.dll already exists in your x64 folder, then instead rename ReShade64.dll to d3d9.dll.
4. Play The Witcher 3!
To uninstall, just delete the three items that were added to your x64 folder: - dxgi.dll (or d3d9.dll, if that's what you renamed ReShade64.dll to) - ReShade.fx - ReShade folder
Recommended: Increase the gamma using the in-game slider (available when playing in Exclusive Fullscreen mode)
