RDR ReFreshed brings a complete visual update to Red Dead Redemption on PC, based on ReShade v6.3.1 (or higher). Extensive modifications create a unique atmosphere that gives the game a next-gen look and feel while minimizing the impact on performance. This transformation was made possible through the use of ReShade. If your video card supports frame generation functions, I highly recommend enabling these settings.
Expect significantly brighter colors, richer blacks and shadows, HDR improvements, improved ambient occlusion, better anti-aliasing, point cloud-based global illumination, as well as sharpening and various other effects. For best image quality, set all graphics options to Ultra.
To install, download Reshade 6.3.1 and launch the application. Find the RDR.exe file by right-clicking on the game in your Steam library, selecting "Manage" and then "Browse Local Files." It is important not to skip any of them, as they can all be installed at the same time. Once the installation is complete, launch the game and let ReShade fully load all the effects. Press the HOME key to open the menu. The preset should load automatically once downloaded, so make sure the preset file is in the same directory as RDR.exe for it to work correctly.
