Assassin's Creed Mirage official screenshots-2

You can now remove Assassin’s Creed Mirage’s Chromatic Aberration effect

Last week, Ubisoft released the latest part in its Assassin’s Creed series, Assassin’s Creed Mirage. As we’ve reported, Assassin’s Creed Mirage can run smoothly on a wide range of PC configurations. However, Ubisoft has used Chromatic Aberration in it, without giving a setting to disable it. Thankfully, though, there is now a mod that allows you to completely remove it.

You can download the mod from here. Below you can also find a comparison between the game’s vanilla and modded versions.

Since I’ve been playing Assassin’s Creed Mirage, I have to say that the game does not look that blurry on my PC. For instance, here is a screenshot. Focus now on the palm tree. As you can clearly see, it does not look as blurry as showcased above. Yes, you can still notice the Chromatic Aberration. However, it’s not as exaggerated as in the “Before” screenshot. For what it’s worth, I run the game in 4K with DLAA so perhaps this helps CA?

I should also note that Ubisoft may soon add an option to disable Chromatic Aberration. Until that happens, though, you can use this mod to remove it.

Speaking of Assassin’s Creed Mirage, PureDark has released a DLSS 3 Frame Generation Mod for it. Furthermore, LukeFZ has also shared a free DLSS 3 Mod on his Discord, and we expect to see it hit NexusMods later this week.

Enjoy and stay tuned for more!

        1. Indeed. Their mentality is quite different from gamers. To designers, TAA, motion blur, depth of field, chromatic aberration, vignette, Bloom, and (Film) Grain are all visual, sentimental, or realism enhancing features. It’s why you see them in every game even when the majority of gamers voice their disdain.

  1. Good God, is that how they actually shipped it? The ‘before’ pic looks like a screenshot from a crappy 1080p youtube video. Does nobody at ubisoft have working eyes?!

  2. Stop adding this effect to begin with.

    Do these moron game developers even understand the meaning of the word “aberration”.

    Everyone goes out of their way to avoid lenses with too much CA. Cameras do everything they can to remove CA. It is a god damn defect. Adding CA is like adding bugs to your rendering code.

    No one likes it. No one asked for it. Stop adding it to games.

    It’s like these film editors who add a blue filter and post processing effects over the movie. These people can single-handedly ruin a whole movie if you give them too much leeway.

    CA and motion blur are a huge turnoff.

  3. I concur that CA should’ve never been added, furthermore I’d like a removal for the game’s vignette;

    With some minor tweaking I got AC Mirage looking really good:
    -Replaced DLSS with DLSS 2.4.6 to get rid of the ghosting
    -Removed CA with hex edit
    -Replaced in game sharpening with DELC sharpening
    -Increased NPC lod distance through an ini edit

    Game looks more than acceptable now. Too bad Ubisoft is too busy hiring LGBTQ instead of actual coders/people that have a clue what they are doing.

  4. Chromatic Abberation, is possibly the worst post-processing effect in existence. I’ve never seen a single instance that it’s been used where it was something I’d ever want. The only reason you’d ever use it would be for filtering an image on an in-game TV screen from the 80’s. Even then… Just don’t.

    1. I know …… We spent all this money for crisp clear color accurate high resolution graphics cards and monitors and then introduce aberrations (chromatic, blur, etc.) into the video on purpose.

      I can still remember the first time I saw this setting in a game and asking myself “Why in the f**k would I want THAT?”

    1. Shouldn’t you be more embarrassed you visit Reddit. Only 12-year-olds care what someone wrote on Reddit.

    2. She has a point, gaming community is full of virgin man-children and teenagers who have never touched a woman.
      Their opinion also gets swayed easily by the sheep on the internet because of their low IQ, Shieftain is a good example of that.

    3. Top tip. Don’t read nonsense from people who don’t know how to capitalise “i” or words at the start of sentence. Low IQ / prank guaranteed.

  5. I’d recommend using the Cheat Engine version for now. Reason being it will be easier to reapply the fix if Ubisoft changes the DataPC_Baghdad_patch_01.forge” file with an update ……
