Thank you for trying my presets out! A small pack of 4 this time (rip a computer wipe i lost a good majoirty of finsihed stuff but that’s ok), this mini set has been designed with the beginning A Realm Reborn locations in mind with simple and clear colouring to suit a variety of locations.

These have been made in Gshade with both free and paid IMMERSE shaders. If you are having any problems with them in Reshade, please let me know and I will do my best to pinpoint the issue. Original shaders such as MXAO etc have been kept intact as an option for non IMMERSE users.

I have included a variety fo different shader toggles! Do experiment with them. All extra effects toggles such ADOF and volumetric fogs have been toggled off to increase loading times, shaders that enhance colours and brightness (colourfulness, technicolour2, blooming HDR etc) can be edited manually as you see fit!

These work outdoors, indoors and in the studio at varying times of the day and have been tested on a variety of skintones. Please turn off the ingame DOF and adjust the manual brightness as needed! I heavily encourage adjusting and playing around with the different shader toggles included depending on the mood for your photo!

These come with unique textures too, please ensure they are installed in the: C:\Program Files (x86)\SquareEnix\FINAL FANTASY XIV – A Realm Reborn\game\gshade-shaders\Textures folder to use.
If using the latest GSHADE, the path is different to prevent loss with the update; gshade custom shaders > shaders. Same with custom textures; gshade custom shaders > textures. this has been added to the guide for new gshade users.

There are also some tips in my MEGA master folder on using StageDepth shaders and installing immerse. If you are on the altest GSHADE, the base, free Immerse is now installed with the program. I will also add this preset pack to the MEGA folder for backup.

Presets included are:
New Adventurer – Vanillaesque colouring, simple!
Limsa Lominsa – A brighter preset with slightly saturated colours with a slight emphasis on blue
Gridania – A slightly autumnal preset with warm and desaturated hues
Uldah – A golden toned preset wit the desert sand in mind

Please note you must have immerse installed for Immerse functions, original shader toggles have been kept intact as another option! You can find Immerse here: https://github.com/martymcmodding/iMMERSE

To use the Film Grain you will need to download Marty McFly’s METEOR extra effects shaders (Free): https://github.com/martymcmodding/METEOR

If you need ReVeil by Lord of Lunacy, here is the link: https://github.com/LordOfLunacy/Insane-Shaders

I have added some keybinds to my presets to easily toggle on and off. All frame texures drawn by myself in Photoshop.

Thank you once again! Please enjoy and if there is something amiss or you have a question, do not hesitate to reach out and I’ll do my best to help

If you are that way inclined to use hashtags when posting pictures, #Elvashade or #Elvashaders will suffice! It brings me joy seeing people enjoy what I make!

I am lax about this stuff. You can share these with friends, edit them for your personal use etc just don’t upload as your own and don’t sell them for monetary gain. If someone asks for them, you are free to share them or redirect to my page. I ask that people are honest if people ask what preset is used as it helps people find things easier.
