Silken preset (ReShade 3.0)
Preset description:
This subtle preset adds in depth to the image and soften it, the lighting is more natural, and colors are a bit more vivid and feels less detached, it counterbalance the image that can be dull at times.
It works well in every conditions but I didn't tested the DLCs yet.
Performance-wise it shouldn't be a problem.
This is the conversion of my preset Silken preset (ReShade 2.0) for Dark Souls 3 on the 3.0 version of Reshade.
The 1.0b is the exact same configuration than my old preset, 1.1b is a little bit tweaked version, less dark

Silken 1.0b : https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B2YEEq3K07GdRHk4dHFSUTFrZ1U
Every screenshots are made with 1.1b and default brightness.
Recommandations :
The brightness in game should be calibrated, not for my preset in particular but because by default it's too high.
Maybe just this can be enough to your tastes.
If you want faster load times you don't need to pick every shader when installing Reshade : only select the effects listed below.
Installation :
-Download the last version of Reshade (currently 3.0.7) here : https://reshade.me/ and follow the installation instructions
-Download & Install my preset ( ) in \steamapps\common\DARK SOULS III\Game, where DarkSoulsIII.exe is.
If you don't want the Depth of Field you can deactivate it with the Insert key.
Steam overlay works fine with it.
There is only one slight issue to my knowledge : the interface and text can and will be blurry because of the DoF. You can temporarily deactivate the preset or the effect when navigating in the menus.
Effects used :
Tonemap and HSV for the balancing of colors (+LiftGammaGain & Curves for the 1.0)
Ambiant Light for better and more realistic lights
Matso's DOF to replace the poor default one
optionnally SMAA, FXAA, AdaptiveSharpen & MXAO can be activated as well (MXAO need tuning but I'm not sure I'll use it because it's very consuming when downsampling and seems difficult to handle) but I don't use them at the moment for various reasons.

I use your preset that I find very well but it drops the frequency of my screen at 60 hz instead of 120 hz ..
Know how to fix this problem ..? or how to disable Reshade ..?
Very nice.
Thanks :D
that looks very soft and i like that. props to you for getting it that way :)
