A realistic reshade, with sharp, crisp imagery and also gets rid of the hazy color cast of the stock game (Winter areas are overly blue, England is overly orangeish). Details of far away visible objects are much more crisp and realistic. See the comparison screenshots.

This will cause a 5-6 FPS drop--but it's well worth it in my opinion. This is my first mod I've posted, it's my own custom reshade I made that I wanted to share with you all! I hope you enjoy, if so, please endorse. Or if you have feedback I'd love to hear it in the comments! :)
How to install:
Go to https://reshade.me/
Download the installer reshade 4.8.2
Open Reshade Setup.exe, install by selecting the Assassin's Creed Valhalla executable from the folder where the game is installed and select the API "Direct 3D 10/11/12".
When Reshade asks you to select effect packages to install, just click "OK."
When asked "Select "SweetFX" files to install" you can either just click OK to install all the effects (it won't hurt anything), or you can uncheck all, then select only "Curves.fx," "LumaSharpen.fx," and Tonemap.fx"
Unzip my mod in the folder and copy to the base game directory (the same spot where ACValhalla.exe is) and overwrite when prompted.
Open the game, press home and select AC-Crisp_and_Clear.ini.
If you like, please don't forget to endorse! Thanks everyone and enjoy!
To uninstall:
1. Simply manually delete the following files/folder from the game directory: reshade-shaders folder, AC-Crisp_and_Clear.ini file, dxgi.dll, dxgi.ini, Reshade.ini
Once those files and folder are deleted, reshade and the preset have been uninstalled.
