Shader used: ReShade

Preset description:

-- Vibrant version released: https://sfx.thelazy.net/games/preset/7348/ - Can be switched to on-the-fly from my orignal version (the one of this page) with the in-game ReShade menu. Just name the below-mentioned .ini file in the instructions to something other than exact same name as whatever you named the file from my vibrant version. -- -- Update 1.3 released. Must run the ReShade .exe again and install the "Vibrance" effect if upgrading from previous version, else things will look very washed out. Minor change to brightness for improved cockpit experience. -- -- Update 1.2 brings optional depth of field and basically changes the color palette and preset overall to my original vision for it. All pics from Version 1.2 now. -- -- Version 1.1 updates the preset for Dirt 4 now. Changed basically everything. More to do, but seems to work well so far. Let me know your thoughts below. Thanks. -- Cinematic Racing Project brings tons of cinematic effects and lighting to the track. Moreover, it makes the details stand out more in all existing textures. It also removes that freaking pink tint that was driving me nuts (just look at the snow). PSA: Depth of Field added in version 1.2 will sometimes obscure the hud. There's no way to really "fix it", so just toggle DoF off with the hotkey while in menus if it's bugging you and turn it back on once racing. And, if you feel your game is too bright, press 9 on the numberpad to disable LiftGammaGain I added a makeshift helmet for cockpit view, toggleable, of course. Video Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k21T9zpjXOQ Please do not copy my preset, I worked hard to get it right. To install follow these instructions: Go here: https://reshade.me/ Then choose "directX 10+" version when installing ReShade 3.0.7. The only effects you need to select to download are as follows and those should be the ones active in game with the ReShade menu. I have lots of hotkeys set up so please see the "controls" section for a full list of controls. Once installed, press Shift+F2 to bring up the ReShade menu. Press scroll-lock to toggle the ReShade on and off. You can change these controls in the Reshade's "settings" menu. Effects enabled: Adaptive Sharpen Ambient Light Bloom and Lens Flares Border Clarity Curves Deband DPX Film Grain HDR Lift Gamma Gain Light DoF Technicolor Technicolor 2 Tonemap Vibrance Vignette You can choose not to install any others. I would suggest you don't, actually, since I think you get better performance with fewer installed. Toggle Features and Controls: Pressing the numberpad buttons won't change anything (except for LiftGammaGain). All ReShade 3.0's controls are remappable with the in-game ReShade menu: Depth of Field - 7 Sharpen - 5 Film grain - 3 Cinematic Letterboxing - 0 Ambient Light - 4 Bloom and lens flares - 6 Bootleg helmet - 9 Tonemap (for darkening, richer colors) - 1 Darkener (off by default)(Techinicolor) - 2 Brightener (especially for cockpit view, but effects everything nicely) (LiftGammaGain) - 9 on numberpad If too bright, it's caused by bloom or ambient light. Toggle them off and see. If you are having issues with a certain track/weather, etc. Makes it much faster/easier for to me address the issue by posting what's going on below. Hope you like it! Cheers! More pics and vids later! Love, Merc (I'm The Mercs Assassin on most other sites).
