ReShade Desert Wings and 5.001

[greywulf]

Are you using ReShade for the new 5.001 and Desert Wings? How is performance with ReShade?

Newer ReShade version do not work properly with CloD. The one that seems to work best is 3.1.2, can be found here:

Performance depends on how many shaders you force into it. Keep it slim and it will run great. Put a lot of crap in and it will run like it.

If ReShade doesn't improve things that much maybe I'll play it safe and not install it or until CloD uses the newer technology of the updated ReShade shaders. Maybe someone has more to add about ReShade would be appreciated.

Are you sure? 3.1.2 crashes the game while the shaders initial loading.

FYI ReShade_Setup 4.7.0 (latest build) works fine for me 5.001 and Desert Wings.

I absolutely could not get 4.7 to work.  Maybe you have older version dxgi.dll and dxgi.ini files left over in Parts/Core directory?

I use Reshade Version: 3.1.01231

I read that ReShade_Setup 4.7.0 glitch with CoD doesn't allow for menu (either Shift F2 or Home) but it does load the shaders. I will test it tonight.

Yep I can confirm @greywulfthat 4.7.0 does in-fact load the shaders, and the game detects the overlay, however, when clicking on 'Fly' the game 'CTD'. (I even tried the re-naming of those files associated with Reshade) - it doesn't work

 

Reshade version 3.1.2 WORKS. I had this loaded and was using Yo_Yo's Reshade config settings and was playing with it enabled last night.

 

Hope it works for you guys too.

For now this is probably more work than it's worth. I've tried several builds and re-named following the instructions and it loads but best I've gotten is it stops loading at file # 39 out of I guess 100. Anyhow I hope it's worth the trouble because 5.001 and Desert Wings already look pretty good on my rig maxed out.

[OBT-Mikmak]

I only use those shaders:

- Lumasharpen

- Tonemap

- SMAA (no more necessary since available in game)

- FXAA (no more necessary since available in game)

100 files? Have you downloaded ALL available shaders?

See above statement regarding "crap in, crap out"...

rename

 

dxgi.ini  to d3d11.ini

dxgi.dll to d3d11.dll

 

these files should be in the parts/core folder

 

if not, move them there

[FTC_Karaya]

3.1.2 doesnt crash the game upon loading. It also does not require a renaming of the dll and ini file.

Put the files into parts/core and all is well. I've been using it since the release of Blitz and including the alpha and beta of Tobruk.

3.1.2 works for me too. Game crashed the first two times after install when pressing shift-f2, but then I waited and played some 4vs.4 qmb's after gamestart before switching to the reshade setup-window and everything was good.

[greywulf]

 

I managed to get ReShade working except for this only on the menu/loading screens but not when the game is running. Any idea how to fix it? It seems to happen with the builds that actually work and load pre-sets correctly in game.

Reshade 4.3.0 works fine with 5.002 and only crashes if you select Player Plane in the final screen before flying (which I dont use). You dont need to rename anything after installation, just move the 2 files (dxgi.dll & dxgi.ini) into 'core ' and leave the shaders in the default directory. To disable Reshde just rename the dxgi.dll

It does add a very realistic look to the game if you set up the right shaders, I only use about 3.
