OPUS VANILLA+ Custom Visualtreatment

Hi Folks,
This is a shader mod that completely changes how the game Looks and feel.
Since this is my first mod ever, feel free to give me some ideas on how to improve it.

First of all, i want to give a Special thanks to everyone who helped me and set the base:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Xan/Tenjoin (decompiled shaders)
BlueSkyWest (explaining some code)
PAIN (some ideas)
Good Shit (idea for Fixing flare-rotation direction)
UNLOCALIZED (some ideas of how to fix certain szenarios)

How to set-up the mod:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
!! You will either need XANs shaderloader (recommended for better usability) or Extended Customization 4.0.1 by Archie !!
!! when using EC4.0.1 you need to enable Custom shaders and compile FX files in the ini of EC !!

Xan Shaderloader: https://github.com/xan1242/xnfs-shaderloader-carbon/releases/tag/1.0 (included)

delete FX folder (in game root Folder) if existing
copy FX folder, scripts Folder and dinput8.dll in game root Folder
(Bonus) Install new Filters with Binary from "Filter Install" folder
(Bonus) If you use Project Palmont copy file from "Project Palmont ONLY" folder in the FX folder

Additional Note:
The Shader is meant to be used with Project Palmont (https://nfsmods.xyz/mod/5165) but also works fine with the vanilla game

How to customize the mod:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

open "visualtreamtent.fx" with VisualStudio/Code, NotePad+ or any Editor you want

Change the values to your preferations

(! IMPORTANT !) To see the changes you Need to go to Video Settings and Exit out again, that will reload the shaders

!! DO NOT TOUCH THE OTHER FILES OR YOU ELSE YOU CAN BRAKE THE MOD !!
