**Advent-FX**
Preset description:
The vanilla game has a bit of washed out tone. Added some effects to make the game look more rich, a little bit less white while without affecting gameplay.
How to install:
1) Download Reshade from reshade.me
2) Run the executable, select the game executable and choose Direct x 10+ and download all the shaders when asked.
3) Uncheck all the shaders and only select the following shaders and click ok : Clarity.fx, FakeHDR.fx, GaussianBlur.fx, LiftGammaGain.fx, LumaSharpen.fx, SMAA.fx, Tonemap.fx.
4) Download my preset settings and change the ".txt" to "ACS.ini". Put the file in the game directory.
5) Open the game, select shift+F2 press the "+" button and type the downloaded preset file name.
V 1.1 : Minor changes.
V 1.2 : Slightly modified lumasharpen, also added SMAA.
V 1.3 : Reduced blur, you will notice improved clarity and sharpness.
Note : All screen-shots were taken with high settings, AO set to max and Anti-aliasing was turned off. For people who don't prefer the blur can turn off Gaussian blur (which i won't recommend) but must enable anti-aliasing in the in-game settings menu, choose highest AA quality you can afford. IF you feel the game a little dark, change the in game brightness option to 5, default is 4.
