evermore | reshade presets

these are my most recent presets that i have been using personally. compared to raie, they are slightly darker but the results are more realistic and satisfying.

basic info

• created with reshade 5.9.2

• compatible with reshade 5.x.x and 6.x.x, preferably 5.6.x or newer

• probably compatible with gshade, preferably the latest version or any of the late versions

• 15 variants: 5 for cas, 5 for gameplay, and 5 for taking screenshots

• should be completely lag-free on strong computers

tones

• v1 - neutral

• v2 - warm

• v3 - cool

• v4 - extra warm

• v5 - warm and red-tinted

hotkeys

• NeoBloom + prod80_02_Bloom - shift + f9

• CinematicDOF - shift + f10

required shaders

please make sure the following shaders are in your reshade-shaders folder

• AdaptiveFog

• AmbientLight

• Bloom (BloomAndLenFlares)

• CinematicDOF

• Clarity

• Colourfulness

• DepthHaze

• FilmicPass

• FXAA

• Levels

• LumaSharpen

• MagicBloom

• MultiLUT

• MXAO 4.0.2 EX

• NeoBloom

• prod80_02_Bloom (PD80_02_Bloom)

• qUINT_dof (ADOF)

• SMAA

• Smart_Sharp

if you have qUINT_ReLight installed, the shader should appear underneath qUINT_dof.

misc info

• if you use any modified GraphicsRules files, e.g. Simp4Sims' GraphicsRules Overhaul or my modified GraphicsRules file, edge smoothing must be disabled so that shaders targeting 3d objects like MXAO and DOF can properly function. if you use the default GraphicsRules file, edge smoothing must be disabled only in CAS.

• for night shots, simply disable AdaptiveFog

• the 5 gameplay variants use only non RAM-hungry shaders and should not be laggy on computers with average specs.

• the presets are designed to work best with Softerhaze's Sunblind lighting mods.

• if you use the presets with The Sims 2 or 3, the results will look slightly different depending on the default lighting of the neighbourhood or world you're playing in, or the lighting mod(s) you're using.

• the Sunblind lighting mods and Northern Siberia Winds's even better in-game lighting mod - dark were used on most of the sims 4 photos.

• Brntwaffles's Frozen-inspired lighting mod was used on the sims 3 photos.

• the only things added to the photos are texts and watermarks.

drawback

• if you use the Sunblind lighting mods, please note that the presets do intensify the darkness of any light-less outdoor areas at night to the point that you can barely see anything. however, turning off Levels can reduce the intensification. you can also add more brightness by turning on Tint (Sepia.fx) and then setting the colour to white (#ffffff) and the strength to around 0.085.

tou

• you are allowed to adjust the presets only for personal use.

• reuploading and monetising either the original or adjusted versions of the presets in any way, shape, or form are prohibited.

as always, let me know should there be any problem with this.

enjoy ♡
