Shader Mod (ReShade) - Config Files + Instructions
Posted: Sun Jul 30, 2017 1:20 am
Hi all,
Long time downloader, first time poster here. I've made a custom configuration for the "ReShade" shader injector which adds improved lighting effects to X-Wing Alliance.
Here's a brief demo reel I uploaded to YouTube:

Installation instructions and the configuration files are here:

And I've got to give credit where credit is due. I found out about ReShade via this forum thread here. It was a very helpful starting point!

My particular implementation is probably a bit heavy on the bloom/lens effects. Star Destroyers tend to be pretty bright. I also haven't tried it on the Death Star run yet, so it conversely may be a bit dark there. The beauty is that this stuff is all user-configurable, so feel free to edit away!
And I know these things are subjective, but I've been loving getting to play XWA with it so far. I feel like it really makes the high quality models from here shine. It's been like a new game!
