a reshade preset i made for half life 2 afther finding out that the cinematic mod disables achievements in steam which i havent played out yet
instalation :
Step 1 : download the mod offcourse
Step 2 : open the archive by either using winrar/winzip/7zip or any other
Step 3 : drag and drop the files in the bin folder located within your half life 2 folder
incase the game doesnt start automaticaly with the preset the first time :
step 1 : press home key while ingame this wil open the reshade menu
step 2 : under the |home|Settings|Statistics|log|about|dx9| you wil see a bar with text if it says half life 2 it means the preset is active if not it wil have likely send you through the first time introduction screen when you used the home button just click ok on all then hover over the bar i mentioned it wil turn bright blue if your mouse is on it click on it and it wil open another window if your allready in the bin folder you wil see that there is a file called half life 2 click it if your not in the bin folder click on it if it showed up or click on the .. if it dident
note that if you have to activate the preset half life 2 might crash a few times it has to do with source engine not really liking the new reshade overlay feature afther the few crashes like 1-2 the next time if you run the game it wont crash
enjoy
normal game

Not that big of a difference but hey, a shader's a shader.
