Preset description:

This is my CLARITY preset for PoE No cinema effects or extreme colors. Just clean, sharp and a little bit darker. For more smoothness set the in-game anti-aliasing to high If you follow the instructions this works on DirectX 9 and DirectX 11 PoE FPS cost @ 1920x1080 on my system 5-10 DX11/x64 PoE Build INSTRUCTIONS: You need to Download the official ReShade Setup tool (3.63Mb) from here: https://reshade.me/ or here: https://www.mediafire.com/?36mdmdtrk57mmv2 (VirusTotalScan 1/55 is false positive) https://www.virustotal.com/de/file/557e5df9b902d7c2276c0843f6dbe4495d4fa1c2ff47ff68df99cbd3b3730fb0/analysis/1479755050/ 1. Start the setup tool, click "select game" and go to your Path of Exile game directory. Doesn't matter if Steam or Standalone version. 2. This is very important! Choose the .exe you're playing with eg.: 32bit/DX9 PathOfExile.exe/PathOfExileSteam.exe 64bit/DX11 PathOfExile_x64.exe/PathOfExile_x64Steam.exe Then click in the circle and choose "Direct3D 8/9" for 32bit/DX9 OR "Direct3D 10+" for 64bit/DX11 3. Click yes for downloading the shader effects. (7.50Mb) If prompted let it overwrite. 4. First click "Uncheck All" then check the following eight boxes and click OK: Clarity Curves Deband HighPassSharp Levels LumaSharpen Tonemap Vibrance 5. Now go in-game and press Shift+F2 to see if ReShade is working. (If it doesn't go to step 2 again.) 6. Start the ReShade tutorial and follow it through for the basic settings and the .ini file 7. Now go to your game directory where the games executables are and find your .ini file. (Not the dxgi.ini.) 8. Open your .ini file with a text editor of your choice and delete everything inside. 9. Copy the content from the settings tab on this website and paste it into your ini.file. 10. Save and close the .ini file. Go in-game and click reload in the ReShade overlay and toggle the effects with the key you assigned in the tutorial. That's it.

Like your preset, but it was a little bit to dark for my monitor, especially the Inventory and other Windows. I switched of Curves and Levels and took FakeHDR instead.

it's funny, but the ini file at the directory doesn't appear, although in game all saved and worked normal.
