About this mod

Performance friendly Reshade preset with a focus on HDR balance, skin tone, and unified colors.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Introduction:
This started as my personal preset, but I've decided to share it. I basically just made a series of small tweaks to try to improve the game's color pallet (without smashing the lighting or ruining the skin tones). Before and after photos are on the 2nd page of images.

Here's my modlist for anyone who wants it. (Edit: I've revised it and even put my load order into a nice looking chart!)

Enjoy!

Requirements:

- Reshade 4.9.1. You can maybe use other versions, but this is the only one I've tested.
- Realistic Wasteland Lighting is a soft requirement. It should work without it, but I have no idea how it will look.


Installation:
  • Download Reshade 4.9.1 here and run the exe.
  • Click on "Click here to select a game..."
  • Choose FalloutNV.exe, and click okay.
  • (If you already have Reshade installed for FNV, click "Update" next.)
  • Now check the boxes for these packages, then click okay:
    [x] Standard Effects
    [x] SweetFX by Ceejay.dk
    [x] Color Effects by prod80
    [x] AstrayFX by Blueskydefender
    [x] OtisFX by Otis Inf
  • Now select the shaders we need from each package.

    - From "SweetFX by Ceejay":
    [x] FXAA.fx
    [x] FakeHDR.fx
    [x] Tonemap.fx
    [x] DPX.fx
    [x] LumaSharpen.fx
    - From "Color effects by prod80":
    [x] PD8002_Bloom.fx
    [x] PD8004_Color_Temperature.fx
    - From "AstrayFX by BlueSkyDefender":
    [x] NFAA.fx
    - From "OtisFX by Otis Inf":
    [x] MultiLUT.fx
  • Extract the Daisy Reshade text file to your root FNV folder (where FalloutNV.exe is located).
  • Boot up the game. Press "Home" to open the Reshade menu. Skip the tutorial, and select Daisy Reshade near the top of the menu.

Thanks!
