A ReShade preset for Xenoblade Chronicles X running on Cemu. It increases overall clarity in the image, makes colors pop a bit more, and makes nights darker and more atmospheric.
Of course everyone has their own preferences, so please peruse the sample videos for a firsthand look.
TECHNICAL BITS
Install a recent ReShade version to your Cemu folder (I used 5.9.1 because I have it on hand and have had good luck with it generally). ReShade most likely will not populate Cemu in its "here's all the games I found" list, so click the Browse button and manually point it to Cemu.exe in your Cemu folder. You should be using Vulkan as your graphics API within Cemu, so when ReShade asks which graphics API, make sure to choose Vulkan.
When asked which shaders to install, be sure to select the following:
- SweetFX: Curves, Levels, Vignette
- AstrayFX: Clarity
- Legacy effects: AmbientLight, Colourfulness
Once ReShade installation is complete, drop the Mactacular.ini you downloaded from this mod into your Cemu folder. Once you are in game, hit Home to fire up the ReShade UI and pick Mactacular as your desired preset.
DEPENDENCIES
Cemu Emulator, obviously. I'm using the latest experimental version as of this writing (2.0-86).
Home (reshade.me). I happen to be using 5.9.1 but I'm sure the latest version will be fine.
