Tonemapping SDR kinda works! :)

Because CFX_ColorLUTDst.png is already a modified lut, created by Ganossa as an example. CFX_ColorLUTDOrig.png is the neutral one, that should be used as a base. It's the same that you can download here: docs.unrealengine.com/latest/INT/Engine/...ffects/ColorGrading/

Use DX9IV tool by Ninjafada and apply your Reshade preset to the 4096x64 LUT. You will get far better results than using Mediator Offline Preview.

Afterwards in Photoshop, open the untouched LUT and on a new layer put your HPD LUT. Use Curves on the HPD LUT and use the Black Point and White Point eyedropper to select the top left and bottom right pixels to fix the whitepoint. Set the HPD LUT's blending mode to Soft Light or Overlay.

Create a new Curves adjustment layer and set its blending mode to Luminosity. Make another and set blending mode to Color. Duplicate the HPD LUT and place one above the Luminosity layer and one above the Color layer. Set them to Clipping Mask. Now adjust the opacity of the adjustment layers until the effect is as strong as you want it to be.

Save it as a PNG-24 (you can shrink the PNG size a lot by using the tool PNGGauntlet) and put it in the CustomFX texture folder. Enable the TUNINGPALETTE shader and enter the details of your LUT, the name, 4096x64 as the size. Use Ninjafada's DX9IV tool to check a game screenshot whenever you make changes until you get the perfect look.
