Cinematic Excellence 1.1

Preset for Mad Max
Created by AssassinsDecree
Added June 29, 2017
Updated 8 Nov 03:33 CET
Shader used: ReShade
Preset description:
Overall enhancer! Also provides a more cinematic atmosphere. Defogs the image space, making distant details much more visible and letting all details pop. Every scene will feel like you're playing it in super HD. Recommended to turn on in-game video mode, hud on and depth of field with blur slider about a quarter full and the bottom bar that just reads depth of field maxed out to push the DoF into the distance. Try decreasing the FOV a little too to bring you closer to the action. -- BLEAK VERSION RELEASED: https://sfx.thelazy.net/games/preset/7438/ -- Video preview: https://youtu.be/u_DfqAeesW0 https://youtu.be/95jBenDKmEc Please like, comment and sub for more entertaining commentaries and ReShades. Update 1.1 just makes some changes to film grain and slight color adjustments. Also adds optional bloom, activate it with "6" on the numberpad. CONTROLS Optional features and the controls to toggle them: Film grain - "3" on numberpad Sharpness - "5" on numberpad Black bars - "0" numberpad Bloom - "6" on the numberpad !!!IMPORTANT For me the game crashes if I use any form of ReShade or SweetFx in fullscreen mode. So you must enable borderless window mode to use ReShade if yours also crashes when trying to load the game with Reshade enabled. IMPORTANT END!!! INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Download the latest version of ReShade 3.0+ from here: https://reshade.me/ Run the .exe that you just downloaded. Probably best to copy it to your desktop or someone first outside your downloads folder. Follow the steps it tells you and select "DirectX 10+" selecting yes everything it asks. Download my preset by hitting the button below and rename the file to "anythingyouwant.ini". The most important part is changing the ".txt" file to ."ini." Put the file in your game's "bin" folder where "MadMax.exe" is located. Run your game, don't touch anything while reshade loads its effects. Open ReShade menu with "shift+f2" and use the drop down menu to select the .ini file you just put in your bin folder. Keep hitting the continue button until the boxes turn from red to grey/clear. Done. Profit! Toggle the effects with scroll-lock, by default. Use the ReShade's "settings" menu to change the controls for opening the reshade menu, toggling the entire preset on and off and setting up screenshots.

Thanks so much! Yea, I've been meaning to update this so it's not SO blue, but I would have to reinstall the game and I just don't have the space right now. Working on other projects for other games unfortunately. I would say you could aleviate the issue by decreasing the third number under the Technicolor2 setting by 100 to 150.

Doing that will also brighten the image, greatly probably. So you may want to increase the gamma by 40 to 100 under the Tonemap setting after doing that if you find the image is too bright.

Happy New Year! The positive feedback means a lot :)
