Shader used: SweetFX 2.0
Preset description:
This SweetFX preset tries to give better sharpness, colours, and contrast to Grand Theft Auto V. This preset actually uses: - CARTOON - CHROMATIC ABERRATION - LUMASHARPEN - LEVELS - TECHNICOLOR - CINEON DPX - LIFT GAMMA GAIN - TONEMAP - VIBRANCE - CURVES Changelog: - v1.3: Cartoon, Levels & Vibrance added, Vignette removed, Tonemap & Curves tweaked. - v1.2: Warning picture message removed and preset re-enabled at game launch (thanks to ReShade 0.18.3), Tonemap added again (^^), Lift Gamma Gain and Vignette added, color corrections in Cineon DPX. - v1.1: A little Chromatic Aberration & Technicolor added, Tonemap removed, color corrections in Cineon DPX, Curves mode changed. - v1.0.1: Warning picture message added using Transition function, preset disabled at launch to avoid framerate problems during loading. - v1.0: Initial release. Only works with ReShade 0.19.2 (and above versions) + SweetFX 2.0 Preview 8 (http://reshade.me). Ready to use complete archives (extract in your GTA V install folder): v1.3 -> https://mega.nz/#!79cjBY5L!wSDDM2nd1qcW3XcS6rb_2DH-EnlZJ1Tk49hOR5hhrjE v1.2 -> https://mega.co.nz/#!vgkknSgK!jCiCgqisEGytka72wA7ZaK67Vs_sl-xHBh0-yDXjv_I v1.1 -> https://mega.co.nz/#!HoswgRxI!RpLiH6Uu29sryihnkuKLiExVtOlXWQ40Z5FqqywU0O4 v1.0.1 -> https://mega.co.nz/#!Xg9jFZxL!NZ7gdfEsUmLrjqfWZ2lxtOE0otUEUnE-B83Fv6o1e90 Test version (preset only, copy over an existing installation): None actually.

Hello again!
After a looong time with no updates, please welcome the final v1.3 of my preset + some new screenshots (the old ones are updated with the new settings). :)
I hope you'll like it, play well and play fair, ladies and gentlemen. ;)

Yep.More better with vibrance..You can try a little more too..Too bad idk the names of these settings to tell you and gives proper advices
Anyway you know why we chose your preset.Because it's realistic..Keep it this way(if you want ofc)..
My only nobish advice is that you must look always on google..Los Angeles pics (simple as that) and you can try to reproduce real life...(how much RESHADE can)
Too bad that mostly of ppl wants cartonish graphics

Thanks, it can be very useful.
I'm now trying to give some vibrance to my preset, here's a test version: https://mega.co.nz/#!as0GDbhD!nukyz-o70yyxZI62wSacPF2jzTXsxBUXBisCkyYDPq0 ;)

OK, v1.2 is out of beta.
Good news is, thanks to ReShade 0.18.3, there are no longer framerate problems during loading screens, so no need to manually activate the preset only when your save is loaded. :)
The settings are the same as in 1.2 beta 2 (I'm quite satisfied with them).
Screenshots have been updated, even if the vanilla ones are still the same (I use a program called DX9IV to re-use the same vanilla screenshots and apply my new preset on them, then save updated screenshots).

v1.2 Beta 2 can be tested now (link in the end of preset description): no annoying warning anymore, less vignette, little more blue. ;)

Dr4Wm4N_
14 May 14:37 CEST

Yeah I think I will remove the warning pic, I admit it begins to annoy me too (I disable it when I test my preset).
The vignette effect I add seems to be too strong, I'll tone it down a little.
For the blue tone I'll see what I can do, perhaps a compromise between 1.0/1.0.1 and 1.1. :)

14 May 12:48 CEST

and tell me when you will upload it..to be online :D

ShakeZone
14 May 12:43 CEST

I tried it
Well, just a few fps in minus but it's ok(playable)...
Btw that warning took some secs.I know it's not much but sometimes it's annoying.Can you remove it? Now,ppl used to enable in-game presets so they know how to proceed :)
And about your new update.I like it more,I admit.I just feel like dark edges are a bit intense.I feel like in a frame..if you know what I mean :)...and it disturbing the mini-map too in corner..I'ts just a sugestion.Don't take it wrong :)
Maybe put a little blue fever more?To feel more realistic?..Idk..
When you will updload it, put new reshade too:)...installed already..It will be eassier..like in 1.1 archive.
Thx u and good luck

I'm working on a new 1.2 version, but as I have added some effects I would like to know if it has an impact on FPS (there's none on my computer). You can test it by downloading it here: https://mega.co.nz/#!fs1w0J7Z!BsXxcpC8KoGxoW4FgYrm0-7M6VxsROTvTz8GSFN2JOg. ;)

There's a new ReShade version (0.18.3, minor changes) on their website.
If you want to use it with my preset, download the ReShade + SweetFX 2.0 version, and just don't overwrite SweetFX_settings.txt AND Global_settings.txt. And Reshade64.dll must be renamed dxgi.dll and replace the one in your GTA V folder. ;)
I'll try to always include the last version of ReShade in the next archive versions for your convenience. :)

14 May 11:38 CEST

No, the 13 May update was just to change the preset description page layout (remove some useless empty lines), there's no new hidden version. ^^

ShakeZone
13 May 23:45 CEST

and if yes..what to download?..1.1 archive or just the preset?

Another (WIP) mod that will help remove fog in GTA V, VisualV: http://gtaforums.com/topic/792891-vwipvisualv/

Dr4Wm4N_
10 May 19:00 CEST

I think there's no real way to get rid of that fog with SweetFX, because it's only a post-processing shader library and it cannot remove hard-coded effects from the game... We'll all need to wait for the new iCEnhancer Timecycle Mod (http://www.dsogaming.com/videotrailer-news/grand-theft-auto-v-two-videos-from-the-icenhancer-timecycle-mod-surface/) to deal with that problem, surely by altering game files (that's not possible with SweetFX). Sorry guys. :(

It will be perfect if you ca do this

@Robertoxxl:
Yeah I know i'm not very good at taking screens ^^, I will try to do better in a next update, but it can take some time before I release it, thanks for your tips.
But what do you mean exactly with the "a" popping at leftside of your screen? Are you sure it comes from my preset? If it is possible, please do a screenshot (upload it and share the link here)? I am not aware of such an issue with my preset... :/

@ShakeZone:
OK time to go and look for LA pics then. :)

-clear & more detailed image
-removes fog completed
Thats all for now.Good luck

-when ingame a letter "a" pops at leftside of the screen.it kinda annoying me at night
-make it more HD

I tried it and I kinda like it.its not so much difference but its what you need and doesnt drop fps.i like that hd effect

@Dr4Wm4N_ For the nxt updts:
-make in some way to keep a good fps
-more professional pics/comparasion.for example look at quentin's present.they attract people.no ofense but your pics are made in a hurry way
-look on gta5-mods at real life graphics by edahy.i think they look good.see and find what he uses and compare with yours.combine things etc..
we want realityyyyy..gg ShakeZone for what you said.and well done man for this preset

ShakeZone
7 May 18:13 CEST

GG.Don't worry.I am not the only one who suports you.My friends just don't have accounts to tell you this.
And don't ever let it go.Some people(most of them:kids) likes cartonish graphic for GTA,they think that only a colorful,full of contrast preset makes a game looks good.And ofc they are wrong.A game CAN evolve in only ONE WAY: -->reality
I can't tell you what I want to be improved because idk the names like curves,cineos dps.Idk what are for, so I will be useless.But if I was you and if I could make a preset of my own, I will search at google some "LOS ANGELES" pictures to see how they look and then I'll try to make that weather in-game.Ofc,with my possibilities

Dr4Wm4N_
7 May 17:36 CEST

Fine. Let me know if you think something can be improved in any way.
And by the way I followed your advice and post on GTAinside, and even on Nexus Mods. :D
Thanks again for your support. :)

"And make somehow to enable it IN-GAME.Remove that auto-enable in loadscreens in the next update if you can."
I was only able to disable it at game launch (with the ReShade_Start_Enabled function in Global_settings.txt, but remember you can toggle on/off SweetFX effects with Scroll Lock key incase of loading screen slowdowns. ;)

@ShakeZone:
Thanks man, I will see later to put on another sites. :)

@all:
Just a little update with a ready to use complete archive, because the function needed to NOT have effects activated at launch (to avoid framerate problems during loading) cannot be changed in SweetFX_settings.txt + I added a nice little warning picture. ;) :D

So remember: in the next updates try to keep this "reality fever" with that blue effect.I am tired of all these disney presents

And make somehow to enable it IN-GAME.Remove that auto-enable in loadscreens in the next update if you can.

I tried a lot of presents
Some of them are great,believe me...but..not so realistic..only colorful ..a lot of contrast etc
And I tried yours.You should put it on gtainside and make it popular.It doesn't takes FPS and that "blue fever" makes the game a little real so FINALLY..I found my present
Thx you and you should continue with this
