Quick guide: (How to install Reshade/Preset):
01. Download Reshade: https://reshade.me/ and run downloaded file
02. Select the game in the list witcher3.exe (x64_dx12)
03. Choose the proper rendering API (For this game select DirectX 10/11/12)
04. Select and download all effect (shader) packages
05. Download my Reshade Preset(s) archive(s), extract it and put extracted files (.ini files and the reshade-shaders folder) into the game folder where the .exe file is located (Overwrite if asks)
06. Check in-game Reshade interface. You should see these shaders below as active in this order:
đŖ If the shader has the âī¸(Opt.) sign next to it, that shader is optional for a specific preset. You can disable that from Reshade GUI. However, these optional effects enhance immersion.

đŖ Note: I often use two methods of sharpening in my presets. One is for textures/surfaces, the second is for objects' edges (tuned for 4k gaming). But If you're playing at 1440p or 1080p and the image looks oversharpened, try turning off sharpening shaders like: AMD FidelityFX CAS, Clarity, LumaSharpen, AdaptiveSharpen or DELC_Sharpen.
đŖ Note: Some shaders may give a very subtle effect in some areas. However, they have a significant impact on other environments. So I recommend you don't turn off any shaders if you want the preset to work as it should. I'll always let you know when there are optional shaders in my presets.

If you need more guidance you can watch step-by-step video tutorials on how to install Reshade and set up the in-game overlay, Also how to install RTGI shader (For RT presets) and configure Depth Buffer properly here:

đŖ Note: Presets were tweaked and tested in SDR (Non-HDR) game/monitor mode. They may not look decent in HDR mode. You can try to tweak presets using extra shaders like: LevelsPlus, PD80_03_Levels or curves by yourself for HDR TV.
The same image looks different on different screens. You might need some tweaking for your monitor's brightness/contrast/saturation if Reshade differs from the showcase.
