About this mod
HDR Mod and rewrite of DirectX shaders for HDR, color grading, and effects.
- Permissions and credits
- RenoDX rewrites the game's DX11 shaders to add HDR and user controls for the game. It uses the Reshade Add-on API to hook
into the game, NOT RESHADE EFFECTS.
- Important: Make sure MSAA is set to "1"(off) in-game before installing, Starting the game with MSAA 2-4-8x selected in Graphics with the addon will give D3D error, if you want to use MSAA, you can turn MSAA on once you are in the game, but you will need to turn it off before exiting.
- i recommend using dldsr instead since it gives a better image.

FAQ
- The game appears dull. Is this even HDR? - By default, RenoDX is configured to match Vanilla SDR. From there you can
tweak to your liking. - How is this any better than (insert other HDR process)? - The engine has been rewritten and resources upgraded from 8-bit SDR to
16-bit HDR. The source to create the image is not the SDR image, but the raw image before the game converts it to SDR. This allows information that was completely blown out by the game's original SDR tonemapper to show through. This is not a post-process of an SDR image, but a reprocessing of the native one. - I don't have HDR. Can I use this? - Yes, you can still reconfigure game's visuals with the tonemapper, only you
would have to add just Gamma Correction to Off (unless your monitor is in SRGB mode). Peak nits and Game nits should be set to 80 which is Window's default for SDR.
About RenoDX
RenoDX, short for "Renovation Engine for DirectX Games", is a toolset to mod
games. Currently it can replace shaders, inject buffers, add overlays,
and write user settings to disks. Because RenoDX uses Reshade's add-on
system, compatibility is expected to be pretty wide. Using Reshade
simplies all the hook necessary to tap into DirectX without worrying
about patching version-specific exe files. The source code is available
on GitHub.
