Silent's Messy Shader Mod - ReShade Add-on version for FFXIV

Created by user 4lex4nder, all credits go to him. Shader resources by s-ilent.

"ReShade version of Silent's shader replacements."

Notable qualities still present in this version include:

• Much improved native Debanding (you'll notice there's a lot less color banding in the skybox).
• Better Colors and Contrast, with the removal of the dreaded yellow-ish tint from the game, presentation is clearer.
• Filmic tonemmaping.

You can still use all of your other ReShade shaders and presets, while benefiting from these improvements!

Installation/Usage:

1. Download/clone the repository and extract the files.
2. The ShaderFixes folder goes to your FFXIV installation inside the game folder, alongside the ffxiv_dx11.exe.
3. shader_replace.addon goes into your Add-on search path directory.
   You can configure that in the Add-ons tab in the in-game ReShade interface, as shown here.
4. Enable the Shader Replace add-on in the Add-ons tab and restart the game.

Notes:

• Configurations aren't loaded in this version, so there's no point in changing them. At this stage, all the add-on does is load the shaders that are inside the ShaderFixes folder directly without customization.
• Tested with ReShade 6.0.1.
