    • For HDMI Users set this values / after change the bpc calibrate your monitor with nvdia

    • Use this settings for calibrate / (dont use my settings ^^ )

    • examples for calibrate
    • You should just barely see #5 and up on this page. If you can't, your brightness/gamma is too low.
    • http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/black.php
    • You should just barely see boxes 244-250 on this page. If you can't, your contrast is too high.
    • http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/white.php
    • Check your ingame Options
    • use ingame Fullscreen / Important for corretly colors
    • set the gamma to 1 (ingame base )
    • Start the Nvdia Settings after each start so that calibrate is activated

    Your Preset have Red tint

    i have my presets optimize for Velen,Novigrad,Skellige and Kaer Morhen not for Whitegarden

    White garden have a unrealistic tint sry for this but i can not change this the other places will lost on quality when i do this ^^

    The colors in white garden is different and it is realy hard to make it looks good on all places with ReShade

    Hey Guys ,
    Working on the Description,FAQ and tweaks
    so that it is user -friendly

    Preset Overview

    Oginal Redesigned for STLm 2.1
    Natural for STLM 2.1
    Vanilla Enhanced for Vanilla
    Cine for Vanilla

    All presets have medium fps cost from 4 - 7 fps on 2560x1440 DSR
    on 1920x1080 lower 1-5

    1. working on performence guide for Witcher 3 for more fps / no stucks and more for you

    2. working on new optimize ingame settings with RGS Graphics Settings Menue


    In the Optinal Section :
    added all single files who wants no all in one choose the optional section

    IMPORTANT
    please check ingame your gamma settings required is 1 ( basic)
    you can change this in the User.settings from Witcher 3

    documents/witcher3/user.settings

    looking for this line and check it

    GammaValue=1

    calibrate your monitor see my FAQ here in the post section Section on this modpage




    If anyone could make a video with all Prestes + comparions I would be happy

      thanks for this info, to fix it open the Custom.cfg or in mediator tuningpalette and edit the following. change
      #define TuningColorLUTDstTexture "RGS_E3_LUT.png"

      to RGS_Enhanced_LUT.png

      thats my fail sry for this. i will change this the days

      RGS is my actual Project yes , i dont support my Other ^^ so im hide them. in the most areas it looks to dark etc. And RGS covered 4 presets when you need help for the installation, im happy to side. Calibrate your monitor thats a most important step ^^ i have read this here in the FAQ (for nvdia users or on the description page. ) so then it looks good.

    I love your work. Best Reshade so far. I using the "normal" version, without deph of field (dont like it, even vanilla). Tryed Cine, but I can not make it clearer, even changing settings in the Nvidia panel, how do you explain in description.
    I would like to know if there is some settings to low the ambient light far from Geralt. The constructions, trees, etc... are to bright. Much bloom to my taste. I prefer something with more contrast and more clear. Obviously I refering day time with sun. The horizon is too bright.
    Thank you !!!!

      thanks for this comment im using not ambient light but 2 bloom effects ^^ you can turn of these when it is to bright. GAUSS is a bloom effect i think this have a most birhtness.

      have you calibrate the monitor after changing the nvidia colors ?
      NexT: after eachwindows startup you must updating thease setting again. open control center and udate the colors and ready ^^

      Gauss in CustomFx.cfg

      #define USE_GAUSS 1 //[Gaussian] //-Gaussian Blur / Bloom / Unsharpmask ( you need fps set it to 0 ) or you can edit this

      #define BloomStrength 0.46 lower value lower bright ^^

      when it is to bright after this changing to 0 you can disable the other bloom to in the gemfx.cfg

      and go to

      #define USE_BLOOM 1 change this to zero ^^



      I hope it helps you. Alternatively, I am still happy to disposal

    You're the first person I've seen on here also with a 970 instead of a 980. What do you set the overclock settings to for your pc? Unless the settings ( 169 mhz , 250 ram ) indicate what you oc'ed it to. I haven't looked at the settings recently so I don't know what the default is.

      oc base clock of the card is 1316 . so i have added 169 mhz = 1485 mhz ( with my oc ) i´m not need to chance the voltage on this clock (by me) and memery clock 250 added. power limit 110 and temp limit 80 so thats my setting for the msi card but Each graphics card is different. test you card in
      10 steps to the cor clock when you see the cor clock gos down you need change the voltage ^^ so i will not change this that im use 169 mhz
      25 steps by memory i think 250 is ok ^^

      40 -55 fps with my setting and 1440p is realy good and with 1090p over 60 frames

      overclocking is not a problem but when you change the voltage ( not recommended ) you loose your varinty and the livetime from the card goes lower ^^

      Yeah I've heard that as well. I've also been reading that modern GPU's have systems in place to prevent burning out. One of my old ones did not have that feature and I paid for it, literally.

      @davies: graphic cards of today cant be destroyed so easily.You must really want to destroy it,before that happens.As long as you dont flash your card with a custom bios,those sliders in the MSI afterburner can not really damage anything.Before that happens,your game will just crash,and drivers will automatically be reloaded.

      But OC in a laptop is another thing.Higher voltage and high memory clocks will cause more heat,and a laptop can not really handle the heat as there is no room for air-circulation.You probably could heighten the core clock and Power limit,but I suggest not playing too much with the other mentioned values

      Ah,and PS: Heighten the voltage on a card is nothing that could make you lose your warranty,as Nvidia cant say this was caused manually by you,or happened through a voltage issue in your living rooms. Only if you flash your card with a custom bios,or open the hardware yourself you will lose your warranty

      mh ^^ eigentlich nicht deinstalliere mal treiber und installiere dann neu. wenn du windows 10 nutzt würde ich die auto updates auf der Grafikkarte ausschalten sonnst installiert dir windows mal ebend nen treiber den du nicht mitbekommst . systemsteuerung/system/erweiterte Systemeinstellungen da auf hardware und dann das untere ^^ da die auto updates austellen. also ich hab mei monitor zwar über hdmi dran aber ich glaube nicht das es nur damit geht ^^ weiß es aber auch nicht genau. alternativ wenn du die farben von nvida nich nutzen kannst stelle einfach den contrast ingame ein wenig runter sollte auch gehen

      calibrieren solltest du den monitor aber trotzdem egal ob nvdia farben oder nicht ^^ besseres gameplay für jedes spiel

      mh kannst du den patch switchen ? bzw mediator nich im witcher 3 ordner nutzen sonnst spinnt der rum ^^
      da wo mediator ist müssen reshade32.dll und auch die 64 dll liegen dürfen nicht umbenannt sein daher halt aufm desktop oder so nen ordner
      mach dir nen ordner namens ReShade da kopierst du alles rein von ReShade 1.1.0 dann mein preset da rein und den mediator öffnen und den witcher 3 suchen wo die exe ist.
      preset auswählen , auf apply ,update und auf application.. klicken
      wenn das nicht geht

      alternativ kannste dir auch den = all in one manuell installieren für die meisten einfacher.
      reshade 1.1.0 downloaden dann ReShade ordner, reshade64.dll in bin/x64 reinhaun die dll zu d3d11.dll oder dxgi.dll umbennen
      dann mein preset zb Natural draufklicken den bin ordner einfach in den hauptorder rein kopieren alles überschreiben und fertig.

      wenn du die ausreizen willst hau den Deph of field noch mit rein der kostet ca 10 -15 fps xD

      this settings in McFX.cfg
      #define USE_DEPTHOFFIELD 0 //[DOF] //- ( set it to 1 for using DOF)

      ich spiel mit dem nich ^^ ich spiele auf 1440p 45 -60 fps windows 10 ist optmiert , nvdia etc

      als mods kann ich noch den LOD, und hulks texturen empfehlen

      Was hast du denn im Nvidia Controll Panel den Gamma Wert und so eingestellt?

      EDIT: Es lag am Kabel, nur über HDMI hat man die Einstellungen die du zeigst :-)
      Habs per HDMI an den Fernseher angeschlossen und seit dem sieht es einfach meeega geil aus, keine verblassten Frarben mehr, sondern genau so wie auf einen Bildern
