Native HDR Mod for Ryza 3 [beta 1]
I've been working on a proper Native HDR mod for Ryza3 (a friend made a mod for 1, and I made one for both 2 and 3)

This isnt "AutoHDR" like a lot of other mods out there, but actually modified game code to have the game run in HDR

Install instructions:

1) Download and install reshade 6.2 + addon support into your Ryza2 game folder
-- https://reshade.me/ Scroll all the way down and click "Download ReShade 6.2.0 with full add-on support"

-- We don't need any shaders, we just use reshade to inject our mod


2) Download the mod: https://marat569.github.io/renodx/renodx-ryza3.addon64
-- This link will auto update with the latest version

3) place it in the same folder as your Ryza2 .exe file

Installation notes:
Make sure the game's resolution matches your desktop's resolution when in borderless mode!


Make sure AntiAliasing is either set to TAA or OFF!
-- The beta version wont work with FXAA, I'll be fixing that soon


Make sure all effects are on in the game's settings!
--, Bloom, Depth of Field, and Light Shafts, star, etc -- everything on
-- You can enable and disable these effects via the mod

Suggested settings: https://i.imgur.com/8vKy395.png
- Make sure the tonemapper is set to "RenoDX" !!
- Blend SDR/HDR on/off is preference -- it handles exposure

Source code: https://github.com/marat569/renodx/tree/main/src/games/ryza3

Known issues:
- The Wardrobe does not have tonemapping applied

- Some photomode filters are broken

- Not all post process effects have on/off sliders

Enjoy! Please let me know if there are any issues!

psa: I did not use any other mods when making this, so I don't know if it is compatible with them.
