ACE ReShade Collection - Natural
Preset description:
Welcome to the natural-toned and more realistic preset of the ACE RESHADE COLLECTION - Assassin's Creed Odyssey Enhanced
Screenshots best viewed in fullscreen mode, makes a huge difference for some reason
*If you want to have all my AC Odyssey ReSahdes installed at once, just download from Nexus, please for easier installation: https://www.nexusmods.com/assassinscreedodyssey/mods/1
UPDATES
Version 1.3 - 10/18/2018 - Further resolved DoF issues, among other changes.
Version 1.1 - 10/8/2018 - Resolved an issue the caused depth-of-field to be much more performance hungry than necessary. You should no longer receive massive frame rate dips when DoF triggers at its strongest.
DESCRIPTION AND FEATURES
This is a natural, somber looking ReShade for Assassin's Creed Odyssey that brings tons of optional cinematic features like with it that you can disable at the click of a button, literally, from in game. This ReShade maintains a believable color palette and seeks to color-correct the game's native yellow tint while toning down the game's decidedly fantastical feel. This preset's colors are notably more desaturated than my companion preset for this one. The optional cinematic features this ReShade brings include film-grade depth-of-field, film grain, letterboxing (black bars), chromatic aberration and anamorphic lens distortion, and enhanced bloom and lens dirt.
I hope you like it!
Please follow all instructions for a proper install, especially the critical ones right below.
I've set up toggle keys for all the cinematic effects I've added. And they're remappable with the in-game ReShade menu.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Hope you like it!
- From Merc (that's me) with love

CRASHING AND GAME SETTINGS HELP
1. For me, the game crashes if I use any form of ReShade or SweetFx in fullscreen mode. So you must enable borderless window mode to use ReShade if yours also crashes when trying to load the game with Reshade enabled.
2. I had to rename my reshade file "dxgi.dll" to "d3d11.dll" to get the game to stop crashing on launch.
3. I've tested and optimized this ReShade for the game's default in-game brightness. Tested on Ultra settings.
4. Toggle depth-of-field - / on numberpad (quick tip, I'm still tweaking DoF, but right now the DoF can sometimes obscure the inventory screen, to fix this, either disable DoF when in the inventory OR just rotate Alexios to the side a little and it the DoF will stop obscuring the hud)
CONTROLS
All of these are remappable once in game. (make sure numberpad is enabled or the controls won't work). The on/off function and menu functions are located in the ReShade's "Settings" tab, if you wish to change those hotkeys.
-Toggle ReShade menu on-off - Shift+F2.
-Toggle all ReShade effects - Scroll lock
-Toggle depth-of-field - / on numberpad (quick tip, I'm still tweaking DoF, but right now the DoF can sometimes obscure the inventory screen, to fix this, either disable DoF when in the inventory OR just rotate Alexios to the side a little and it the DoF will stop obscuring the hud)
-Toggle lenz distortion (warping in corners of screen) & chromatic aberration (color bleeding on objects' edges toward the edges of the screen) - 2 on numberpad
-Toggle sharpness - 5 on numberpad
-Toggle film grain - 3 on numberpad
-Black bars (letterbox) - 0 on numberpad
-Bloom and lens effects - 6 on numberpad
-Vignette (darkness around the corners) - * on numberpad
-Toggle soft DoF on horizon (distant landscape)(off by default because it frequently blurs the compass. My advice, turn it on and cut the compass off, but that's personal preference) - 1 on numberpad
I recommend opening the ReShade GUI's setting's menu and changing the following:
Toggle ReShade on and off with the END key
Toggle ReShade menu/gui with F4
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Download latest version of ReShade from here: https://reshade.me/ (3.4.1 at the time of posting this)
2. Run the ReShade .exe and select ACOyssey.exe in your Assassins Creed Odyssey main folder. (if installed to Steam's default location, can usually be found here: "... Steam\SteamApps\common\Assassins Creed Odyssey"
3. Choose the DirectX 10+ version
4. Say yes when it ask if you want to download a collection of shaders. But then click "uncheck all" when it asks which effects you want to download. Don't worry, I supply the folder you need with all the effects my ReShades use.
5. Now download my preset here with the "download" button below. Rename that file "anythingyouwant.ini", the most important part is that the file name now ends ".ini" instead of ".txt" like it did when you downloaded it. Put that file in your game's main folder where you found ACOdyssey.exe and where your reshade-shaders folder should now also be installed.
[CRITICAL INSTRUCTIONS]
6. I had to rename my reshade file "dxgi.dll" to "d3d11.dll" to get the game to stop crashing on launch.
7. Download the reshade-shaders folder from my dropbox link here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/h4to8a9nw67gecp/Odyssey%20Enhanced%20Folder.7z?dl=0 and copy-paste this folder over your existing reshade-shaders folder in your Assassin's Creed Odyssey main folder. Don't worry, you are just pasting over other reshade files, not your game's actual files.
8. Run your game and after you get a message in a grey box saying reshade effects have loaded, press Shift+F2 simultaneously to open the in-game ReShade GUI. Select the .ini file from that drop down menu and hit the "continue" button prompt to finish the ReShade tutorial (if it's your first time launching the game with ReShade installed). Toggle the effect with the scroll-lock key to ensure it's installed correctly. You can change these keys in the ReShade's settings menu.
9. Go to the in game Reshade "Settings" tab and make sure "RESHADE_DEPTH_INPUT_IS_REVERSED=1", make sure "RESHADE_DEPTH_INPUT_IS_LOGARITHMIC=1", AND make sure "RESHADE_DEPTH_LINEARIZATION_FAR_PLANE=10000.0" (without the quotes, of course) and then go back to the main "Home" reshade menu tab and click "reload" at the bottom of that reshade menu.
Failure to do this will render your entire screen 100% blurry while Depth-of-Field (DoF) is on.
[END CRITICAL INSTRUCTIONS]
Done. PROFIT!?!
PROFIT!
UNINSTALLING
1. Delete the "reshade-shaders" folder, "ReShade.ini" file, "d3d11.dll", and "d3d11.log" file from your game folder. That's it.
