Resident Evil 4 HD Project showcases improved character models for Leon, Ada and Ganados
https://www.dsogaming.com/news/resident-evil-4-hd-project-showcases-improved-character-models-for-leon-ada-and-ganados/
Modders Albert and Cris have released some new screenshots from a new, unreleased, version of Resident Evil 4 HD Project, showing new improved character models for Leon, Ada and the male Ganados.
Albert has re-created textures various textures, rounded the fingertips during cutscenes, added real eye shine, rounded shoulders, sleeve, and flashlight for Leon (the non-coat version), improved Leon’s shoulder holster (left band) so that it doesn’t clip anymore through his shirt, added hi-poly in-game heads for Leon and Ada (based on their cut-scenes versions), hi-poly arms, hands, neck and other details for Ada, and restored Ada’s dress physics.

This Dark Souls 3 mod completely removes the color tint from the game
https://www.dsogaming.com/news/this-dark-souls-3-mod-completely-removes-the-color-tint-from-the-game/
Modder ‘TKGP’ has released a new mod for Dark Souls 3 that completely removes the color tint that the developers have used. In case you weren’t aware of, many areas in Dark Souls 3 have a specific color tint. In other areas it’s a blue tint and in other areas it’s a green tint.
Now normally PC gamers would be able to use Reshade in order to remove it. However, that is not possible here as the color tint constantly changes and Reshade allows you to remove one specific color tint only (as such you’ll have to re-configure Reshade each and every time a new color tint is used).
TKGP has edited the graphics parameter files themselves. More specifically, and as the modder states, the RGB values of all global lighting were averaged to remove the coloring without affecting overall brightness.
>>Download this mod from Nexus Mods.
