UNDERSTANDING RESHADE

I get a lot of questions about using ReShade, whether it's about errors, installation problems, or just for hints and tips. I put together a comprehensive guide to help you understand ReShade, including a troubleshooting section: www.patreon.com/posts/unders...

Thank you! I’ve just lost my taste and smell tonight, but other than that atm it just feels like a cold 🤞

amoebae @amoebae.bsky.social · 9h

Thank you!

Thank you 😊So far it's a heavy cold and lots of tiredness. Definitely taking it easy!

Another thing to keep an eye on is to turn off ssao in the graphicsrules.sgr file. That can also cause the weird body mesh issues when using depth effects.

A 'before' screenshot from Cyberpunk 2077 showing a woman standing on the street at night with a window grille behind her and a sign that says OPEN. The scene is dull and uninspiring, and not well composed.

A screenshot from Cyberpunk 2077 showing the same woman as the previous shot. This time the camera has pulled in closer, and the lighting and colours have been improved with the use of ReShade.

Thank you! We had our boosters a week before we caught it and it seems to have protected us from the worst of it. It’s not as bad as the first time I had it in 2023 for sure. I hope you are staying healthy!

We had our boosters just the week before and I think it’s helped mitigate the worst of it, we mostly just feel like we have heavy colds. And yeah, there’s *a lot* here atm. Thank you ☺️

We played this at my dad’s funeral in 1996, originally because the BBC used it for the Grand Prix and my dad was a big F1 fan, but then we realised actually the full thing is perfect.

I want to believe good art isn’t worth putting yourself in toxic situations to produce it but unfortunately the chain by Fleetwood Mac exists

I know some people want more information on how to use ReLight. This doesn't go into depth with it, but it does show it being used so you can get a good idea!

Marty's Mods @martysmods.bsky.social · 2d

Grab a drink and settle in ☕

In this video we cover the practical basics of some of our most loved shaders: RTGI, ReLight, Depth of Field, and ReGrade+, plus a few extras.

Remember, these guides are all well and good but if you're an artist of any kind you should be using the aspect ratio that best suits your subject, and not arbitrarily cropping so that it displays in a certain way on one social media platform in small thumbnail format.

ReLight has never had a free version, do you mean NGLamps maybe?

I guess it's time to start telling Labour voters that if they don't vote Green they're just letting Reform in 😅

I am being asked to tell my department which pieces of lab equipment should be supported with backup power because they expect rolling blackouts and brownouts in 2026 due to increased energy demands from AI. In case you're wondering how my day is going.

WHAT I SEE ---> WHAT I TAKE

#VirtualPhotography #Cyberpunk2077 #ReShade #MartysMods

A 'before' screenshot from Cyberpunk 2077 showing a dirty alleyway at night. A woman is walking along talking on her phone and there are neon signs in the background. It looks dull and uninspiring.

The 'after' screenshot in Cyberpunk 2077, showing the same alleyway scene and woman as the previous picture. This time the composition is much better, and ReShade shaders by Marty's Mods have been used to make it colourful and vibrant. It looks a lot nicer.

I regret to inform you that thanks to the third respiratory virus in 5 months I will be treating myself to the early access version of The Outer Worlds 2. I am the problem, but when you really think about it people who let covid run rampant are the real problem and I deserve a treat.

ffs

They’re going to argue that the “ceasefire” means nothing bad actually happened and all is fine.

Another year without my favourite day of the year 😔

This is one of the things that’s so refreshing about @zackpolanski.bsky.social - he meets questions head on. No prevaricating, no tripping over triangulation, just unapologetic honesty. I hope he continues. It neuters the media’s ability to whip up outrage out of nothing.
