This simple ReShade preset makes tweaks to Saints Row 2's colours and shadows to provide a cleaner image, with more life-like colours.

INSTALLATION:
1. Download the latest version of ReShade, Run the installer, and install it for SR2_pc.exe (DirectX 9).
1a. I recommend installing ALL effects, but this ReShade preset only uses "Color effects by prod80".
2. COPY and PASTE "Seabound's_ReShade.ini" to your Saints Row 2 root directory (where SR2_pc.exe is located).3. Launch Saints Row 2, press the "HOME" key to access the ReShade menu, and select "Seabound's_ReShade" from the drop down menu. It can be toggled on/off with the "INSERT" key.
