3D Vision and geo-11 fix for Dark Souls: REMASTERED. With extra hotkeys to modify some effects and a custom HUD to show the current values.
Update (2023-10-20): geo-11 updated to build v0.6.182. Fixed motion blur. Maybe some HUD adjustments.
Update (2022-12-03): geo-11 updated to build v0.6.90. Perfect TAA during convergence and separation transitions.
Update (2022-11-12): geo-11 updated to build v0.6.78. Autoconvergence improvements. Dynamic depth for crosshair, lock-on, and enemy life bars.
Update (2022-06-22): geo-11 fix added. With autoconvergence enabled by default.
Update (2022-01-13): fixed TXAA, fixed radial blur, and made a better fix for specular reflections so external resources aren't needed (the FOV is always available for the calculation).
Fixed
•	Water.
•	Snow and poison swamp textures.
•	Haloing problems (fog gates, bonfires, etc).
•	Sun.
•	Light shafts.
•	Stereoized specular reflections and parallax occlusion mapping.
•	Radial blur.
•	TXAA.
Installation
•	geo-11, recommended, using build v0.6.182: download this file and extract its contents in the "DARK SOULS REMASTERED" folder, where "DarkSoulsRemastered.exe" is. Remember to edit "d3dxdm.ini" to change your "direct_mode" to the output you need.
•	3D Vision (outdated): ownload this file and extract its contents in the "DARK SOULS REMASTERED" folder, where "DarkSoulsRemastered.exe" is.
•	Run the game and let it overwrite the Nvidia profile.
Hotkeys and custom HUD
In this fix I have included a custom HUD that can be opened with the "c" key if you uncomment the ";include = ShaderFixes\help.ini" line in "d3dx.ini".
It shows the current state of 3D Vision and the effects linked to the hotkeys I made.
The gamma and brightness modifications aren't done in post processing. They are linked to all shaders that control geometry, so for example a lower gamma in the Tomb of Giants area can reveal geometry that was hidden by darkness.

List of normal hotkeys (numbers aren't from the numpad):
•	 convergence presets (0, 0.5, 1, 2, 2.5, 3, 4). 2.5 by default. They will work only if autoconvergence is disabled.
•	 HUD depth presets. 25% depth by default.
•	 HUD toggle.
•	 multiple gamma presets (increase only). I recommend the advanced hotkey.
•	 multiple brightness presets (increase only). I recommend the advanced hotkey.
•	 multiple bloom presets (increase only). I recommend the advanced hotkey.
•	 it puts back specular reflections to surface depth. I don't recommend doing that.
•	 it switches gamma, brightness and bloom back to the default settings. Press it again to go back to your custom settings.
•	F10: everything goes back to the default settings.
Advanced hotkeys (as shown in the screenshot):
•	Ctrl+left/right arrows: decrease/increase gamma.
•	Shift+left/right arrows: decrease/increase brightness.
•	Shift+down/up arrows: decrease/increase bloom.
If you like the custom gamma, brightness and bloom settings you have configured, you can save them as default in "d3dx.ini", changing the "z=1", "w=1" and "x1=1" lines respectively. You can do this even without closing the game. Press F10 ingame after making changes to reload the shaders.
Autoconvergence (with geo-11)
•	If you go to "d3dxdm.ini" and set "dm_auto_convergence = 0", you will disable autoconvergence, which will allow the manual convergence keys to work.
•	ctrl+F5 and ctrl+F6 control the general convergence strength of autoconvergence.
•	Temporal antialiasing is better disabled when using autoconvergence, to avoid blurry transitions.
