Spacecakes – Soft Realism GShade Presets
Subtle gshade presets that make the game look newer while being as gentle on the eyes as possible. Yes, it’s even safe to walk into Limsa with these enabled.
The main goal behind this pack is to fix the washed out details, terrible contrast and coloration from vanilla, while not going overboard in any given area. I wanted my game to look like it was made in the last few years rather than for the gamecube, and to not have your retinas seared every time you look at something white, as is the case with most of the presets shipped with gshade. These presets will enhance the overall graphics/shader quality while remaining inoffensive in pretty much any area or lighting condition. The caveat is that the effects can be hard to notice in some areas.
This mod includes 4 presets of varying quality. The lite version of gameplay uses SSDO instead of SAO, since it’s less expensive. The lite version of the screenshot preset has godrays disabled and downscaled AO resolution in case you want your gpu “well done” instead of charred beyond recognition. Those two will absolutely shit on your fps either way.
Enjoy.
