Immersive Gritty ReShade inspired by first HP movies
Make your game look cozy, contrasting and warm – like the first HP movies. No FPS drop.
A ReShade fixing the bleak, desaturated visuals of the game to make it look more like it’s from the first HP movies.
This is a preset I’ve created for myself, to enhance my HL experience. It’s been tested in various environments and against all skin tones, so everything should be clearly visible, without altering too much the feeling of the menu as well.
No fps drop – it’s a detailed levels/contrast/temperature/tint fix, no extra effects added.

WHAT DOES THIS RESHADE DO?
It warms the entire in-game palette, making the world look more cozy and nostalgic (much like the first movies)
It sharpens the image and removes game’s blurriness (you can turn off DLSS sharpening in the game options)
Makes nights feel truly dark and cool, and days feel more warm and sunny. By tweaking the levels the highlights look brighter and shadows look deeper.
Makes colors more vivid and contrasting to each other, removing the desaturated, bleak feeling of the original color grading.
Overall enhances the game immersion by providing more sharp, vivid, and thus stimulating visuals.
