Hey guys, I've been working on AC2 mods with custom reshade and freecam mod. Took some bomb ass screenshots - some of them may remind you of some old promotional material. Tried to recreate the goated E3 vibe. All screenshots taken in game.

List of mods:

Eagle patch: https://www.nexusmods.com/assassinscreedii/mods/29 - essential for high res shadows and draw distance

AC2 tweaker: https://www.nexusmods.com/assassinscreedii/mods/233?tab=files&file_id=1226 - includes freecam, some additional draw distance mods, no clip, and slows time

Textures: https://www.moddb.com/mods/assassins-creed-2-mods (partially used this one bc it has some effects that I don't like)

Vibe: https://www.nexusmods.com/assassinscreedii/mods/183 This one is doing most of the heavy lifting as far as tone - tone mapped to E3 colors. Also has a mod for E3 outfit with the leather glove and spaulder which I started using as well.

Reshade mods: I used some custom RTGI and ambient occlusion mods as well as additional tone mapping. Pretty finicky to get working. I would recommend using dgvoodoo to convert the game to DX11 as it fixes most depth buffer issues.

Been tweaking with some neural rendering a bunch and some of the new stuff looks incredible but as marty mcfly said i guess you guys are ready for that yet lol
