ReShade
1. Download ReShade v5.9.2 from here Reshade but feel free to try ReShade v6.1.1 from here ReShade it causes crashing when Alt-Tabbing so not recommended.
2. Extract and Put my ini in Steam\steamapps\common\Fallout New Vegas or where ever the games files are located
3. Run ReShade setup
3. Find FalloutNV
4. Select Direct x 9 or Vulkan depending on if you use DXVK
5. Choose a preset ini by clicking browse
6. Find where you put the Vibrant Blues Reshade Preset ini and select it
7. Install
Installing NVR or DXVK
Anytime you install new versions of NVR or use new presets you'll have to do
this if you want to avoid issues. Goes for DXVK too.
Delete the shaders folder located in your MO2 Overwrite folder
Delete the DXVK cache usually located here \Steam\steamapps\shadercache
Keybinds

Issues and solutions
DXVK can make dithering worse to remedy this you can try Antialiasing - Mode set to Enhance the application setting, Antialiasing - FXAA set to On or Off with Antialiasing - Setting set to 8x and MFAA set to On in the NVIDIA control panel. ReShades FXAA is also an option.
Flickering White dots. Disable bloom.
Black textures appearing when walking in water. Disable underwater in the NVR menu.
NVHR. I don't recommend if you are using DXVK will cause more crashes from my testing.
Low framerate. Follow the guides in recommendations, turn off or adjust shadows, ambient occlusion, reflections, use lossless scaling if you got a 40 series nvidia card and finally give DXVK a try.
If you have a ton of texture mods especially after doing New Vegas Visual Renewal and start crashing a lot make sure you have enough VRAM.
6GB+ as a baseline for 1080p, 8GB+ for 1440p and 10GB for 4k.
