Additional Screenshots

Description

Based on Reshade shaders by Awesome Mods called PhotorealisticNeedForSpeed4.

What I did: I removed an shaders types that cause glitches in the game when Weather is enabled. Two shaders remains. They are tone coloring and sharpening. Those, had been strongly modified (from scratch).

For people with an bad eyes (sight), spoiled by the time, this mod is ridiculous. The easy blue tone, makes HS look stylish.

For all info, please read READ ME!

Updated version 2 is now supports DirectX7 and 8. So now you can use Hi-poly cars - unlimitedly.

Updated version 2.1 is now have 2 additional shader effects: Ambient Light and Colourfulness, which now make game look like modern game aka GTA or Drive Club. Also I updated Directx9 library (dll).

As in previous version, you can use that Mod on any game you have on pc.

In High Stakes a glitch exist. Special effects on a screen , sometimes are being displayed as squares.

------------------------------------------------------------

Later I did removed an DIRT. Ambient Occlusion is back! The HS graphics feels 3x times better.   Colors temperature is now in the middle between low profile tv/monitor and high profile.

-------------------------------------------------------------

Now, I added BloomHDR, which makes bright areas in the game look darker, and an dark areas look brighter. So you have nice skies. And added Clarity, which makes textures being calibrated automatically to look more real.

So now the game's picture  look great, with cost of bit of performance drop (and input delay), but well if you ask me whats better eventually - I would choose Reshade over standard game. Tho this little lag doesn't make car physics degradation. Enjoy.
