NBA2K21 Nvidia FreeStyle presets

Wed Dec 30, 2020 8:23 am

People asked me on Twitter, Discord and on my channel why my games look like this.

Its because i use Nvidia Free Style. So here's a thread where i share with you my profiles.
I will share all my profile on my wordpress too : https://2kretromods.wordpress.com/nvidi ... e-presets/

Hope you will use it, improve it and share yours ;)

Nvidia Free Style ?
You all know Reshade (and previously SweetFx, and in prehistoric era Enb), a generic post-processing injector, it alters (in a good way or not) the graphics in real time
Nvidia added few years ago the same kind of effects, under the name Nvidia FreeStyle. I will call it NvFS in this topic. Official description : https://www.geforce.com/en_GB/gfecnt/wh ... ce-article
So you need a GeForce GPU, and to have Nvidia Geforce Experience installed. Sorry AMD users, but this thread isnt for you.
Of course, when enabled, it takes FPS.
My setup is pretty old now (i7 4790k + 1070ti) but i can play in 1440p/60fps with one of this profile enabled and recording in the same time with shadow play.
Note 1 : you can use those profiles on 2k17 / 18 / 19 / 20 ; on 2k15/16 it seems that the games dont manage the Depth of field in the same way.
Note 2 : you can also use reshade in the same time to add more FX

NBA 2K21 on my PC looks like this (all screen with rtomb_03 Lakers arena) :

Without NvFS :
