Final Fantasy XIV: Vs Reshade - A Comparison Reborn.

[Ecks007]

not really a fan of how the skyboxes in the reshaded pics looks. I much prefer the natural in-game skybox, particularly at night as it is fantastic.

I had a R9 280x and it went above 80° if not even higher when I did play before Heavensward hitted. It's common for the R9 Series and you shouldn't worry about Overheating at all. I reached 100° in Watch Dogs and it still perfomed nice (Even though I had some Micro Stutter back then)

When I turn on Heavy Effects such as HBAO+ or DoF (Bokeh) my GTX 770 goes on 80° instead of 70° with Reshade.

I'm not too worried about card melting itself. Just about all modern CPUs and GPUs throttle their clock speed when they get too hot. They pretty much run as fast as their cooling systems would allow.

I love the color adjustments as it looks so rich but not the "blur" effects to the DoF. Is there a way to just adjust the colors? If so what do I need to DL and any other advice would be appreciated.

Oh my god, I didn't even realize those dots were the stars. Yeah, night sky totally ruined. x_x

@OP - that album is huge, I haven't been able to view more than the first few images. :/

Well you can tweak the DoF to be less blurry but DoF by nature is blurry as it focuses on the image in the center of the screen. If you don't like the colors you can always use a tonemap.

I've been pretty busy as of late so i haven't really worked on it sorry :/ i will get around to it though, and remember you can still do all this yourself

Using reshade my game looks so much more alive. I've been tweaking settings to get what I like, sadly DoF doesn't work all the time for me. Atm I'm working on getting a visually stunning settings that don't mess up the UI.

I just followed the steps here. https://sfx.thelazy.net/games/preset/3970/
Make sure all previous SweetFX and Reshade files were deleted
Installed Reshade + Framework from the website.
Run Framework Mediator.exe.
In ReShade Setup click Add and find ffxiv.exe (ffxiv_dx11 if you wish to use dx11). Once added make sure that the correct Direct3D type is selected (It will default to Direct3D 9)
Then mess around with the settings. EffectOrdering turns the effects on and off.
