Makes Kenshi both more beautiful and realistic. Greatly enhances the experience in all parts of the world. All with no performance loss! I found that other graphics mods were not to my liking and cost too much performance wise, so I created this.

Kenshi is an incredible game, the world is amazing and vast, yet the colors scheme is very drab, the lighting is off, shadows aren't very pronounced and so much more. I made this to coincide with the post-apocalyptic theme but essentially to enhance everything. Nights are slightly darker, the desert is bright but much more full of realistic colors (where it should be). Green and lush areas look much more so, weather looks more drastic and the entire landscape just looks more real and alive. It's meant to look more realistic and beautiful, making the entire Kenshi experience all the more enjoyable.
Look at the photos to see if you approve, although they don't really do it justice. It looks much better in game. And all of this with no performance loss!
Toggle on/off with the .del key on num pad (numlock not required).
Installation:
Just drop all the files contained within the Beatiful Kenshi folder into your main Kenshi folder:
1. Extract the downloaded archive so you have a folder containing 'ReShade.ini' and some other stuff. (or you can OPEN the downloaded archive & copy/paste directly. Windows will take care of extract for you.) 2. Copy 'ReShade.ini' and everything else in the same folder as that (including 'reshade-shaders' subfolder) 3. Paste those files in Steam/steamapps/common/Kenshi/ (at the same level as the 'mods' folder, but not within it.)
Done. Nothing will be added to your mod list. To uninstall, just remove those same files. (refer back to the downloaded archive if you forget which ones they were).
If landscape is too bright and bothers you, a problem inherent to vanilla Kenshi I would recommend using the Darker Lanscapes mod with this. It's not necessary however, and just Beatiful Kenshi mod alone will make everything look much better.
