About this mod
A realistic versatile semi-fantasy reshade designed for Cabbage Enb and Nat3! Spring boarded off of popular witcher 3 reshade presets. This truly awesome reshade offers grounded colors with deep shadows making for surreal images.
Cabbage ENB Required to get same image! May work with Pi-cho ENB but untested. Post pics so we can see!

- Permissions and credits
This reshade aims to offer the realistic fantasy feel, without crazy distracting effects.
Warning: Just Like my other Reshade Preset. The black point I set for the preset is insane.
But fear not, I will give you some tips and tricks if you want the color without the blackness
True Utopian - ReShade Preset was built off of Cabbage ENB, and Nat3 Weathers.
Mods used:
LUX
Embers
EVLAS
The theme around this preset is realism with desaturated colors. A multifaceted ReShade that can be the foundation of your perfect game. Built with wide applications within the Cabbage framework!
Important FX Tips to adjust how it looks
*Press Home on your keyboard to access FX! Make sure you toggle Reshade Performance Mode in the GUI if you want to make adjustments yourself!
Too Saturated/Not Colorful Enough!
- Colorfulness.FX: These took alot of time to get correct. Be careful but have at it!
Too Dark!
- Levels.fx: If it's too dark turn Black Point down from 25
- EyeAdaption.fx: Eye Adaption Strength is set to 0 on purpose. Turn up as high as you please to adjust lighting
More Sharp/ Blur it up!
- GassuanBlur.fx: Kind of the secret MVP of the reshade. Adjust Strength as needed
- AdaptiveSharpen.fx
* IF YOU LIKE THE DARKNESS BUT STILL WANT TO PLAY THE GAME EFFECTIVELY
I suggest downloading one of the many Wearable Lantern Mods, or Mage Light mods. Even Vigilants Quest mod has Flasks you can wear that brings light
Cabbage Specific Tweaks
*Press End on keyboard
Skin Tweaks
- If you feel skin lighting is off go to "SubSurfaceScattering" drop down in enbseries.ini GUI in game. Tweak "SurfaceBrightness" mainly. But there are a whole host of tweak options at you disposal
- If you are new to Cabbage. In order to get rid of the letterbox/cinematic border, it is located in "Shader Parameters" section of ENB GUI. Scroll to "ENBEFFECTPOSTPASS.FX" and de-toggle "Enable Letterbox Bars" under Letterbox section
