About this mod

I got bored and played around with the reshade settings a bit. I made a reshade that emphasized the warm colors giving the entire game a feeling of fuzzy but warm memories as well as making the game way darker to emphasize the usage of torches.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
this is a personal reshade that I made and had no intention of sharing it makes the game a pain in certain areas like the undead crypt and other darker locations as it makes them borderline unplayable without a torch. but I like the overblown saturation and colors of the game making the game a bit warmer and giving it a feeling of an oversaturated memory. this reshade is designed to be used with the seeker of fire mod that can be located here:

I also set the brightness of the game to the lowest to make it more challenging and give it a darker more abandoned feeling I know not a lot of people will like this some might even find it ugly looking but I love the way it makes the game look and if you're interested I'd be delighted if you took it for a spin :D give it a try maybe you'll like it 

I also used Drangleic Enhanced Reshade as a base for this so if you are not interested in my settings check it out at

I'll also basically copy-paste the install procedure from his description as I suck at explaining shit like this sorry :D 



how to install the reshade:       

1- Download the latest Reshade from: https://reshade.me/  ;

2- Run the executable to install the Reshade ----> select the game or browse until you find the DS2 "Game" folder  (usually [......Steam\steamapps\common\DARK SOULS II\Game] ) and click on DS2 .exe  file ----> Open ----> select Direct3D10/11/12 if you have the SotFS version (and click inside this same bar) ----> In the shaders collections window click on "Uncheck All", you will see that the first option can't be unchecked, no problem,  roll down and select ONLY the last option (Legacy Standard Effects) ---->  confirm and wait the download of the shaders ---> In the shaders window you can click on "Uncheck all" and check only these .fx files: Border.fx, Curves.fx, DPX.fx, LumaSharpen.fx, Technicolor2, Tonemap. fx and  Vibrance. fx ---> Confirm and close the little window when you see the message  "Reshade Setup was successful".

3- Download my mod file, and extract the file memory of warmth.ini to your [.........Steam\steamapps\common\DARK SOULS II\Game] folder ; 

4- Run the game, use the "Home" key to open the Reshade menu, click on continue, and at the bar near the top select the file "memory of warmth.ini", so click on "continue" bars and "Finish" bar at the bottom of the menu, then "Home" key again to close it.
