What is this?
A simple Reshade preset and shaders pack for RDR2
This preset would give you simple realistic mimic with smaller performance hit.
It's NOT using heavy or complex  shaders (e.g AO, HDR, Ambient Light, etc); just simple shaders.



Side by Side result sample: Left (Vanilla) vs Right (Mod ON):



Precaution:
- DO NOT use this mod for playing online!

Notes before install:
- Make sure that you are running RDR2 in DirectX 12 mode (for Vulkan mode, I didn't try it yet. Since the batch file refused to run with Launcher).
- Clean-up/Move/Backup your previous Reshade files (dxgi.dll and their related files and folders) if you already installed it to your game.

How to Install:
- Extract files into the same folder with your game executable (RDR2.exe)

Command Keys:
INSERT: Toggle Effects ON/OFF (default is ON)
PAUSE : Toggle real-time side by side comparison (left = vanilla; right = with Mod) >> Only available for V1.4 or newer
