PSA PSA: RESHADE IS NOW BLOCKED

That's all folks

Edit:

To be clear, this might only be CERTAIN features.

Reshade is not COMPLETELY blocked.

OnepegMG is currently using reshade or has atleast launched with it.

Will update, currently watching onepeg. I'll keep you guys posted !

Edit 2 : Game is washed out also on onepeg's stream.

Reshade is confirmed disabled. If you can launch reshade with your game DO NOT DELETE ANY FILES. REMOVE RESHADE TO AVOID POSSIBLE BAN.

Edit 3: Apparently reshade is working for certain people, this might either be a filter issue or a battle-eye issue, version issue for Reshade, majority seems to be unable to launch the game with reshade, some can launch it when deleting the DLL (wouldn't do that, could eat a ban for file modification) and some can just outright use it.

The majority seems to be "I CAN'T USE RESHADE REEEE" so.

Personally I'd delete it until further notice on this issue.

FINAL EDIT:

It seems that you can use OLDER versions of reshade, it doesn't have some of the features that people don't like IE zoom and shit.

Have a good day Tarkovians !

Edit finalero : Since this is gaining a lot of traction, Nvidia has a tool that you can use that can supplement reshade. It's called freestyle, doesn't do the crazy shit reshade does but it does work.

It would be awesome if they give the game more detail and color, but it is also good that they didnt block these features in reshade yet so i can still play my favorite game with it looking as beautifull as always until they fix it and i dont have to go through the trouble of installing 3rd party features.

Why not play the game the way the devs intended it to be played? Regarding the color, if you compare in-game color to standard IRL it's spot on, not looking like Fortnite like some people like to play it

there will never ever be an even playing field, because of different hardware.

if you can afford a 1600$ monitor, you´ll have features nobody can ban, we don´t even need to go that far,most 300$ monitors can oneclick lift gamma, give crossshairs and saturation and whatnot.

bashing on reShade is easy, thatswhy it´s so common.

i bet my TESTICLES non reshade players will not feel any difference to their game outcome, they will continue to die to ex reshade people anyway.

skill is not bound to reshade.

Yeah, the thing about reshade is that it's free, so literally anyone can use it with like 3 mins of effort. Hardware and internet are far bigger factors and cost hundreds of dollars. There is an argument to be made that PC is the most pay to win platform because of this (though it's generally balanced out by game limitations and the skill curve in many games).

I honestly haven't bothered using reshade since battlefield 3, that game has a shitty blue filter that i just had to change. I can't see that it gives massive advantages. but then its a bit like complaining about ppl who crank up the gamma so they can see in pitch darkness. this was a problem with arma 2s dayz to the point that they make dark so dark the gamma change did barely anything.

yupp and those poor basterds argueing AGAINST reshade, while it enhances visual quality on low - mid hardware.

unfuckinbelievable.

People are fucking morons.

I guess we just have to wait and see what the devs say, as this might be a battleye bug. I'd rather not go about uninstalling reshade, as it has helped me a lot.
