The purpose of this ReShade preset is to provide Farming Simulator 25 realistic, performance-friendly graphics.
It improves visual depth, lighting behavior, color balance, and clarity without detracting from the game's original aesthetic.
Key Elements
• A clearer, sharper image that displays natural detail.
• Automatically adjusts brightness so that nothing seems too bright or dark.
• Colors and contrast are more realistic and photo-like.
• Dim ambient shadows that give items a more realistic and deep appearance.
For screenshots, a cinematic focus blur effect is perfect.
• Adjusts the black and white levels to provide a sharper, less washed-out picture.
• Using LUT for Color Grading
In-game settings that are necessary:
• Turn off the game's integrated HDR (all HDR-like effects are handled by the preset).
• In the "Additional Game Settings" menu, turn off the map's custom lighting.
(Prevents exposure and color correction conflicts.)
