Otakuishi's modified MMHD for AK

Preset for Aura Kingdom
Created by otakuishi
Added Jan. 20, 2015
Updated 20 Jan 01:27 CET
Shader used: SweetFX 1.5
Preset description:
Same modifications I did to my FFXIV:ARR release has been done to this one too. However, there are differences. ----In-Game Settings---- Resolution: 1920x1080 Anti-Aliasing: Close Game Screen: Fullscreen Max FPS: 120 F.O.V: Furthest Graphical Detail: High Shadows: High Water Effects: High Textures: Max Foliage: High Glow FX: On Backlighting: Close Models: High Character FX Max: Brightness: 50% (Middle Mark) Screen Effects Checked: All(Black and White, Photo, Glare, Depth of Field, Model Border, and Shadows) [If it's too bright then just reduce the brightness in-game (if you like more shadows and colors to be less bright) If the game has too much clarity for you then you can change the Anti-Aliasing within the game from "Close" to Low or High" and it will reduce that clarity a little and implement a sort of "blur-blend"] Note: These settings are tested on a Asus vg248 monitor with these settings: 1. Standard Mode selected and reset to default then perform the below adjustments to it. 2. Brightness: 35, Contrast: 80. 3. Color temp User Mode. 3.5 R: 96, G: 94, B: 88 4. Trace Free: 80 [Further information for the more advanced] Computer settings tested on: Widescreen 1920x1080, 2xMSI GTX 980 Gamer Editions with default on color settings within the nvidia panel but with the mode 0-255 color range chosen. Since I cannot seem to get the game to read these settings when the screenshotting process is going on, and want to see the detail it does to a game, then you can see it on my submitted modified FFXIV settings since it's using the same settings profile between the two games (AK and FFXIV): http://sfx.thelazy.net/games/preset/2784/
