“All color or contrast changes are coming from the included Reshade preset. My aim was to get a more vivid look, simply because that’s the current trend for video games”, the modder explains.
It is clear that it is a dramatic improvement whilst still maintaining the original feel ofBattlefield 1942.
Better yet, it is completely free to download and will overwrite the game’s original files to work as an add-on or custom mod.
