Dilla's Hogwarts Legacy - CAS Two Time Pass Reshade  

Dilla's Hogwarts Legacy - CAS Two Time Pass Reshade V5 Final

Added colourfulness, unsharp and cas, 2nd version without unsharp.
Almost no fps / performance loss.
Color reshade made for 8 bit monitors without HDR.
If your game is grey and milkwhite, take a look at the screenshots please.

Playing this game on a 60 hz monitor the game should be colorfull and probably no need for a color reshade ! This reshade is made for 144 hz monitors using standard monitor mode, where some games are grey and have no colors, maybe the icc monitor profile get ignored ?

Hello there Plasma Fire Gryffindor's, Gas Air Ravenclaw's, Liquid Water Slytherin's and Solid Earth Hufflepuff's !

First of all what is CAS two time pass ? When creating a video file inside a video editor program, before starting to render the final video file, there is one option, it is to render the video with one time pass or two time pass. Creating the video file with two time pass the video has better frame quality, the video looks better, sharper. So i've tried to recreate this effect in pc games using reshade CAS and the ingame CAS and i have to say in some games it realy works well. Doing this with any game goes like this, enable CAS in the ingame settings menu and then enable the 2nd CAS inside reshade.

Max out everything on ultra settings and enable vsync. Take a look at my settings screenshots for more details.
