Reshade and SweetFX for Metro Last Light. This is a place and play, no adjustments required.
This is an alternate version to my ENB and SweetFX setups, using Reshade and Sweetfx instead to work with newer video cards and operating systems. This will allow you to enjoy the same enhancements but through another method.
To Install:
Download and extract to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Metro Last Light
Start and play. (Adjust ingame settings, lighting/gamma.)
Reshade version. Alter the SweetFX_settings.txt in the \sweetfx folder to make changes.
Nvidia DSR setup Nvidia.custhelp.com
ATI VSR setup Support.amd.com
To Uninstall: Simply goto the game folder and remove any file references (D3, reshade and sweetfx files)
Adjust ingame settings according to system. Brightness, resolution. Alter Vsync to determine preference.
Splitscreen.
Gameplay.
Mod Information.
This is a combination of several different setting files and programs I found I could use with one another (after some adjustments) for Metro Last Light. It adds detail, shading and lighting, while enhancing colors but not altering the base colors of the game. Settings image can be found on my profile.
This can be used in combination with any texture packs or add-ons.
To make adjustments to Sweetfx, go to \sweetfx folder and alter the SweetFX_settings.txt file.
Alter settings as you like.
Using the Printscreen, will generate ingame screenshots.
They can be found placed in the game folder, where the files were placed.
Use FastStone Image Viewer, to convert them to jpg or other formats.
Trouble Shooting: Mod
Install the DX9 final release if you haven't done so previously. DX9 Final Release June2010
DX install: Download and run the file, tell it to extract to c:\dx, then after goto c:\dx and run the dxsetup file.

Thanks to Christian Jensen (CeeJay.dk) and Crosire for reshade and sweetfx.
I hope you find these programs and adjustments helpful at making your game more enjoyable.
Thanks also to Mod DB and the Mod DB Community.
I know this might be old, but is this compatible with the Reduxes, or is this unnecessary, as the features are already included in the Redux?
Hi,
It should work with the redux. Although you may need to run the installer version. Use this one here Nexusmods.com
Download and run the installer from your desktop or from the rar file itself. After it installs the files you need, take the sweetfx folder from this download and replace (overwrite) the one the installer created in your game folder. It will then adjust the settings to this game.
Sounds great, I'll try it out. Thanks.
