Yet Another SimCity 2013 GShade Preset
A revised version of my SimCity preset, aiming for vibrant colors that make your city pop. Note that as each season has its own lighting colors, the preset will not look the same in all seasons. I tried to make sure it looks good in all seasons, though. It affects the UI but only the colors, the UI should not be any less readable.
Press Shift-T to turn tilt shift on and off. Press Shift-B to turn Bloom on and off (thought the preset is designed around it). Bloom can get intense in early morning and late sunset, but is fully playable on a bright sunny day and does not meaningfully affect the UI!
Installing Gshade:
-Select the Cities2.exe
-Use the DX11 option
-Tick “Alternative” hook
Installing Preset:
-Place in “Gshade Presets” folder in Cities Skylines 2 folder
Activating Preset:
-Press Shift-F2 (Default Gshade settings hotkey)
-Select preset from dropdown at top of menu
Requires the following shaders:
-qUINT_Lightroom.fx
-Curves.fx
-PPFX_Bloom.fx
-TiltShift.fx
(All should install automatically when you install gshade with all shaders)
