Step-by-Step Guide to Using the FilesStep One: Download Necessary Files
Step Two: Install in the Game
  • Place the File in the Game's Root Directory:
    • Place the Red Dead Redemption.ini and also the reshade-shader where there is the lut.fx texture with the name Red Dead RedemptionV0.3.png
      file in the game's root directory where the .exe file is located.
  • Open the Reshader Program:
    • Open Reshader and find the game.
    • Select the DX11 or DX12 version.
    • Locate and select the Red Dead Redemption.ini file using Reshader. This should automatically download all necessary configurations.

Step Three: Configure in the Game
  • Start the Game:
    • Start your game and go to the open-world section.
  • Home Key:
    • Press the Home key to open the Reshader menu.
  • Settings:
    • Go to Settings.
    • In OVERLAY KEY, set the key to Del (you can choose any key you prefer). This will allow you to toggle the overlay on and off.
    • In EFFECT TOGGLE KEY, set the key to Page Down (you can choose any key you prefer). This will toggle the effects on and off.

Step Four: Enable Effects in Reshader
  • In the Home Tab, Enable the Following Options for Version v0.3:
    • ✔️ IMMERSE: Launchpad (enable and move to the top!) [MartysMods_LAUNCHPAD.fx]
    • ✔️ IMMERSE: Sharpen [MartysMods_SHARPEN.fx]
    • ✔️ IMMERSE: Anti Aliasing [MartysMods_SMAA.fx]
    • ✔️ IMMERSE: MXAO [MartysMods_MXAO.fx]
    • ✔️ Clarity [Clarity.fx]
    • ✔️ prod88_01A RT_Correct_Contrast [PD88_01A_RT_Correct_Contrast.fx]
    • ✔️ DPX [DPX.fx]
    • ✔️ Vibrance [Vibrance.fx]
    • ✔️ Vignette [Vignette.fx]
    • ✔️ LUT [LUT.fx]
    Now the next step is to improve lut.fx and make it more realistic. If you don't like it, just disable it, and if there is an orange tint to your game, simply edit lut.fx until it suits your taste.

Step Five: Edit Global Preprocessor Definitions
  • Settings:
    • In Edit global preprocessor definitions, set the configurations as follows:
      • v0.1 or v0.3:
        • RESHADE_DEPTH_LINEARIZATION_FAR_PLANE = 1000.0
        • RESHADE_DEPTH_INPUT_IS_UPSIDE_DOWN = 0
        • RESHADE_DEPTH_INPUT_IS_REVERSED = 0 (Test this option with 0 or 1 and see how it goes)
        • RESHADE_DEPTH_INPUT_IS_LOGARITHMIC = 0

How to Customize Effects to Your Liking

  • IMMERSE: Launchpad (MartysMods_LAUNCHPAD.fx):Enable and move to the top: Enable this effect and move it to the top of the list for best results. Improve the quality of normals and motion vectors.
  • IMMERSE: Sharpen (MartysMods_SHARPEN.fx):Enable: Check the box to enable this effect. It enhances image sharpness.
  • IMMERSE: Anti Aliasing (MartysMods_SMAA.fx):Enable: Check the box to enable this effect. It smoothens the edges of objects, reducing jagged lines.

  • occlusion shader is based on GTAO and Irradiance Bitfields.

  • DPX (DPX.fx):Enhances color grading and tonal response.
  • Vibrance (Vibrance.fx):Increases the intensity of colors without oversaturating them.
  • Vignette (Vignette.fx):Adds a subtle darkening effect around the edges of the screen for a more focused image.

  • Some Before and After Comparisons
edit lut.fx to your liking using this option.

  • The IMMERSE options may cause a drop in FPS if not configured correctly. If your PC is very weak, I recommend using only IMMERSE: MXAO.
