This is my personal set of presets - I swap between them a lot depending on lighting and skin colors. I've been asked a few times to share, so here they are!

Things to note:

They are screenshot presets only and they are beefy and can cause your framerate to drop
They are mostly for portraits/closer shots
They have a lot of light artefacts and bokeh
They use MXAO, which can cause shadows in certain hairstyles
To use them effectively, you should:
Turn off in-game depth of field
Use the "manual brightness adjustment" slider
Use the "character lighting" slider
Experiment with making the character wet it anamnesis for a soft sheen (depends on scene lighting)
Look for interesting lighting backdrops indoors, and look for dappled lighting to stand in outdoors - ambient light looks better in game than harsh spotlights from gpose
Use spotlights from a distance when necessary for a subtle highlight or color
You can drop a light over your character's shoulder for some interesting glow
The base presets use a combo of auto-blur (ADOF) and mouse-driven focus (cinematic DOF); you can toggle off the mouse-driven focus if you like, it just gives a nice customizable blur to the scene
The bokeh presets use ADOF or cinematic DOF, and if you want a finer control over the blur pane you can can use manual depth under either of those and place the blur where your shot needs it
Vertical previewer is in the list and will let you preview a vertical layout, and the aspect ratio previewer is set to the twitter crop (4:3) so you can get an idea of where to center your actors so they don't get cut off if you want to share screenies

There are six main presets with simple bokeh:

Filmic has stronger depth effects
Glow captures more ambient lighting
Realism is a strong filter that captures character skin and details well
Rose is a softer color version of realism
Vanilla is close to vanilla colors
Velvet has softer ambient lighting and more pastel colors than vanilla

There are also four versions of each base shader that have specialized lighting: a strong bokeh (Bokeh); bokeh with reddish fog (Sunset); starry bokeh (Star bokeh), and a soft bokeh with halo effects (Cinematic bokeh)

The previews are taken with lightest and darkest skin options.

I hope you have fun! You can use #elegyglows if you want me to see your screenshots ♡

To install: Drop the vita folder into your reshade-presets folder - it should be in your game folder, depending on how you set your reshade up. You can find a guide about setting up reshade for ffxiv here. I use the gshade backup.
