[For ReShade Framework - Added by PeterCroft] This is only a preset, you need the full ReShade Framework package to make it work. You can find it here: http://reshade.me/
FEATURES:
- SMAA + FXAA (Antialiasing)
- Contrast, gamma and color adjustments
- Sharpening
- Ambient occlusion
- Depth of field
- Emboss
- Ambient light
- Bloom
- Lens flare
DEPTH OF FIELD AND OPTIONS:
Currently the depth of field effect also blurs the user interface, including HUD, menus, inventory, text, etc. I can't do anything about this at the present moment, other than assigning a key to toggle the DoF.
Therefore, you have three options to choose from:
- Option A: full preset, all effects are enabled. You can use CTRL as a toggle key to temporarily disable DoF when you need.
- Option B: DoF is disabled, all the other effects are enabled.
- Option C: performance option, DoF and ambient occlusion are disabled.
You can also use the * key (multiplication) on the numeric keypad to toggle all the enabled effects at once. This applies to all the three options.
REQUIRED GAME SETTINGS:
- Antialiasing: DISABLED
- Diffusion depth of field: DISABLED (required only for option A)
- Screen space ambient occlusion: DISABLED (required only for options A and B)
- Full-screen gamma: DEFAULT (1)
SCREENSHOTS:
You can use the PRINT key to take screenshots. Screenshots are saved in .bmp format to the folder where the DragonAge2.exe is (usually "C:\Program Files (x86)\Dragon Age 2\bin_ship").
INSTALLATION:
1) Download and install ReShade Framework 1.0.0 from here: http://reshade.me/ and follow the instructions included in the README.txt.
I find manual installation very easy. All you have to do is:
- extract the content of "ReShade Framework 1.0.0.7z" to a temporary folder
- in that folder, rename "ReShade32.dll" to "dxgi.dll"
- copy or move the following items to the folder where the DragonAge2.exe is ("...\Dragon Age 2\bin_ship"):
a. dxgi.dll
b. ReShade.fx
c. the "ReShade" folder
2) Extract the content of "DA2_ReShaded.zip" to another temporary folder, choose one of the three option then move/copy the content of the option folder to the DragonAge2.exe folder ("...\Dragon Age 2\bin_ship"). Replace the existing files when asked.
3) Enjoy the game.
UNINSTALL:
Delete the following items from the folder where the DragonAge2.exe is ("...\Dragon Age 2\bin_ship"):
- dxgi.dll
- ReShade.fx
- the "ReShade" folder
