Native Stylise

Description
Guide: Fog, Dust and Water Fix

Native shader port to achieve various stylised effects within the OGRE3D graphics engine of Kenshi.

The main purpose of this mod is to apply stylised effects directly within the game engine while preserving UI elements, which can be an issue with third-party systems where masking alone can prove insufficient.

This mod ports various ReShade shaders and some other effects to Kenshi's native graphics engine to achieve mostly stylised effects.

The effects are toggled ON/OFF in the game's graphics menu, depending on the desired aesthetic.

The order in which the effects are applied can be modified within workshop folder:
./materials/compositors/compositors.cfg

I could not work out whether or not sliders could be added in a mod, so if you wish to modify the effects, some high-level values are adjustable in workshop folder:
./materials/common/NativeStylise.program

For the first hour or so, my eyes kept thinking it was blurry and trying to focus. I almost uninstalled, but then it went away.

Once you see the layered stones of the fog islands in all their bright and painted glory, you won't be able to go back.

This is godlike if only for the outline feature. I can actually see enemies now without zooming in and pixel hunting.

Not sure why there's negative comments here, were y'all forced to install this mod against your will or something?

Anyway I mainly use it for the outlines and a bit of color, mine doesn't look like Borderlands at all.

if borderlands was ass this would be it digger:steamthumbsdown:
this mod is for people that think oversaturation, blurry graphics and textures and thick black borders on everything look good

Superb visual effects! I've always thought that this kind of stylized filter is the most effective solution to improve games like Kenshi that have lackluster visual performance.
