Just watch the video to see what the effect and reshade preset looks like in game:


Beyond the Hype's Classic Cinema Shader & Preset Reshade, To Give RDR2 a feel like you playing in a true classic Spaghetti Western yourself and even roleplay with Max Immersion. 

Instructions video guide: 


You can find other Reshade Presets and Modlists on my YouTube Channel: youtube/BeyondtheHype 

there are 2 files
1) with RTGI
2) without RTGI - for those who dont want or have Pascals RTGI Effects.

Instructions

RESHADE 5.4.2
- Install the Latest reshade Version [5.4.2] to the game exe "RDR2.exe"

Game Graphics Settings:
- Every setting works with this preset 
- NB: If Needed, Set your gamma lighter if the reshade looks darker than the video showcase (each monitors gamma and brightness is different)

My New Custom Shader (Beyond The Hype Classic Cinema Animation Shader (CCA))
- Install the shader (Beyond The Hype Classic Cinema Animation shader) into "Red Dead Redemption 2\reshade-shaders\" folder by just copying over the "ClassicCinemaAnimation.fx" file into the Shader folder and the 4 png Textures into the Textures folder
- NB: whatever resolution you playing at (default is set to 4K 3840x2160), you need to change the resolution in the CCA setting panel under Processor definitions. So if you play at 1920x1080 , change it to 1920 & 1080 accordingly. 

**Extra Info** 
- NB: i provided 4 textures (default is "bthcustomgrey20.png")
- bthcustomgrey20.png
- bthcustomgrey100.png
- bthcustomnogrey20.png
- bthcustomnogrey100.png
- the 20 & 100 relates to the opacity of the scratches and grey cover with 100 being zero opacity.
- the grey and no grey are variations from the opacity
- just change the png name in CCA settings panel under Processor definitions to have a look and maybe u prefer the stronger effect to the default one.
**

My Reshade Preset:
- just drop my preset into the folder where "RDR2.exe" is in
- when in game, open reshade menu (Pause Key or Home Key) & select the preset and load it.
