YOU ARE NOT PREPARED -- to unleash the true potential of Azeroth!
Prepare to experience Azeroth in a whole new light! This is my very first preset that I've uploaded. I've made several others for multiple games, though.
Time for the details to shine in Azeroth!
- With the right amount of depth, sharpening and contrast details will spring to new life while you play. You'll better be able to notice creeks in wood, magic patterns in furniture, flowerbeds in fields and more!
Let dynamic lighting do what it was meant to!
- Nights are darker now to better allow for dynamic lights to properly light up surrounding areas, creating an atmospheric and immersive Azeroth for you to adventure in!
Please leave any feedback you have in the comments and I'll get back to you when I can.
INSTALLATION:
1) Download the latest Reshade version from http://www.Reshade.me/ (click link, scroll to bottom, press "Download")
2) Run the application, click "Select Game" then navigate to your WoW directory and click on WoW64.exe. Click the "Direct3D 10+" option then click "Yes" and "OK" (leave every effect on). Close the application.
3) click "Download Preset" on this page, move the downloaded file to your WoW directory and re-name it "SweetFX_Settings_Warcraft_Definitive_Experience.ini"
4) Start up WoW as you usually would. Once in game press Shift+F2, click "Continue" then select "SweetFX_Settings_Warcraft_Definitive_Experience.ini" from the drop-down list to enable the preset.
NOTE: You can enable/disable the preset by pressing Shift+F2 then head into Settings and configure a key for "Effects Toggle Key". I use the Scroll Lock key. KeyBloomAndLensFlares=0,0,0,0

@Trustert
Thanks for your kind words.
Hm. This sounds weird, indeed. I've not had any issues with loading screens, but I must confess that I've held a break from WoW these past few months so I wouldn't know if any recent patch has screwed with the preset. Is the loading screens back when you disable the preset?
I love your preset! Only tweaked some minor things. Already recommended your preset to my friend and he loves it too! <3
Just one thing I don't understand and can't get fixed: I no longer got any loadscreens :D. Don't know if this is caused by the preset. While loading I can just see the FPS counter in the corner, which I activated. The rest of the screen stays black. Any ideas?
No problem, man. Glad you like it. :)
This is my favorite preset of all time, honestly I think your visual taste must mirror mine.
I did turn off FineSharp (even saw mode2 and 3) but they are the biggest hit to FPS and I want to keep over 60.
Lumasharpening offers a similar result without the FPS hit, although not as nice.
Thanks for putting this wicked preset together.
Look here: https://www.bandicam.com/product/how_to_record_wow_gameplay/graphic-settings-directx9-directx11.jpg
Yes, i did it all. But where i can see if i run WoW with Directx11 plz? ^^
Hello, Firestorm2045. You are actually the second person to explain this problem. I have no real solution on this. Are you running the game in DX11? Have you tried configuring a toggle-key for the preset and disable/enable it(under Shift+F2-->Settings-->Set Toggle-key)?
Have you moved the .ini file to the WoW root directory?
Hi, i have a problem, i follow your guide step by step but in game, when i selected "SweetFX_Settings_Warcraft_Definitive_Experience.ini" in Reshade Shift + F2, nothing appears in the option and nothing changes.
You have a solution?
I downloaded the Reshade in the Homepage
I have click Select Game and i selected Wow-64.exe in the main wow file.
I have click on DIRECT3D 10+ and i closed the application
I renamed the preset to "SweetFX_Settings_Warcraft_Definitive_Experience.ini"
I selected play in battle.net. In game, i did Shift + F2 and i followed the guide in the windows by selecting "SweetFX_Settings_Warcraft_Definitive_Experience.ini"
I finished the guide, and after, nothing appears.
Where i can send a Screen shot for you to see?
Sorry for ma bad english, i French and i try not to use Google translate lol, but it is complicated. ^^
Thanks for the feedback. The contrast and blacks allow for darker nights and dynamic lights to properly have an impact on surrounding areas. It's a matter of taste, though. It may not suit everyone. :)
I downloaded it, but the contrast is too high, blacks are too dark. Just my opinion. I love the technicolor effect, looks almost realistic.
Looks unique, downloading now.
Looks nice man!
