Shadow of the Tomb Raider - HDR Optimized Settings (Patreon)

The game is NOT using/applying Xbox/Playstation HDR Calibration app settings.

The game has a decent HDR implementation with a Peak HDR Luminance slider but with numerical values not corresponding to actual nits.

If you have an LG OLED and:

> you're using Dynamic Tone Mapping or Dynamic Contrast:

• Set HDR LUMINANCE slider to: Max (which is around 1.500 nits);

> you're using HGIG:

• Set HDR LUMINANCE slider to: Mid (which is around 800 nits) or +21 Clicks for G2 (from 0, all the way to the left; which is around 1.000 nits) or Max (for G3)

If you don't have an LG OLED and:

> you don't have an HGIG option:

• Set HDR LUMINANCE slider to: +21 clicks (from 0, all the way to the left; which is around 1.000 nits);

> you're using HGIG:

• Set HDR LUMINANCE slider to one of those values and the corresponding real Peak HDR Luminance of your TV in "nits":

In all cases leave the regular "Brightness" slider to: Middle (Default) as it already corresponds to a balanced/correct exposure and gamma.

If the game still looks too dark for you, you can increase it at your liking.
