About this mod

With the GD Far Cry Primal Graphics Enhancement Preset my main aim was to inject more life into Far Cry Primal's often drab visuals. Utilising a number of special effects including additional antialiasing and gamma tweaks, this mod makes Far Cry Primal look much more vibrant.

About the GD Far Cry Primal Graphics Enhancement Preset mod:

With the GD Far Cry Primal Graphics Enhancement Preset my main aim was to inject more life into Far Cry Primal's often drab visuals. Utilising a number of special effects including additional antialiasing and gamma tweaks, this mod makes Far Cry Primal look much more vibrant. 




This GD Far Cry Primal Graphics Enhancement Preset mod uses the Reshade as a generic injector tool which provides users the ability to customise the post-processing effects either using presets or by manually choosing certain effects and customising in what way that effect is utilised. Reshade renders with Direct 3D9, Direct 3D10, Direct3D11 or Open GL (all in both 32 bit and 64bit) and is fully compatible with custom shaders in all formats as Reshade offers its own shader transpiler.

Requirements:
-------------|
ReShade requires a computer with Windows Vista or higher. Your graphics card needs to be able to support at least OpenGL 4.3 to run Reshade with OpenGL games.
It is highly recommended to update your graphics card drivers to latest version before using this tool.

Automatic Installation:
-----------------------|
  • Download and unzip the Reshade and SweetFX suite (http://www.reshade.me/). 
  • Open the folder and run the "Reshade Setup" executable to open the installation tool. 
  • Click "Select Game" then navigate to the installation directory of the game you wish to mod with SweetFX and double click on the game executable. The program should automatically detect which API the game uses for rendering and will auto select the appropriate one. If auto-detect fails then you will need to manually select the correct API.
  • Setup will then copy across the necessary files to the game folders and offers you the option to launch the game directly through the setup tool (although that isn't necessary).
--------------------|
Manual Installation:
--------------------|
  • Navigate to the game directory and copy over either Reshade32.dll or Reshade64.dll (depending on whether the game runs in 32bit or 64bit) into the parent directory of the game executable. 
  • Rename the dll you just copied to one of the following depending on which API the game is running:

Direct3D8     --- d3d8.dll
Direct3D9[Ex] --- d3d9.dll
Direct3D10+   --- dxgi.dll
OpenGL      --- opengl32.dll

  • Once installed, upon the next launch of your selected game you will be greeted by the Reshade and SweetFX text greeting in the top left.

By default, the ingame key to activate SweetFX is Scroll Lock and Print Screen is to take screenshots that will be saved directly to the game directory.
If you are experiencing errors such as crashes upon launch, double check that there are no third party overlays active. The most common ones known to cause issues are Steam and Fraps, as well as most recording and streaming software. Once the game has launched, you can usually activate the overlay (i.e. you can launch the fraps client once the game has launched).
