Realistic Simple - ReShade

This ReShade preset is designed to bring realistic performance-friendly visuals to Farming Simulator 25.
It enhances clarity, color balance, lighting behavior and scene depth without breaking the original look of the game.

Main Features
• Image sharper and cleaner, revealing natural detail.
• Automatically balances brightness so nothing looks too dark or too bright.
• More natural, photo-like colors and contrast.
• Subtle ambient shadows, making objects look deeper and more realistic.
• A cinematic focus blur effect ideal for screenshots.
• Corrects black and white levels for a cleaner, less washed-out image.
