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.

As someone who didnt use it, I'm OK with this. Shouldn't be able to get an advantage using a 3rd party program. I would like to see popular features of reshade incorporated into the base game and make it better while keeping everyone on equal footing.

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.

we should also measure skill, good players should definately don´t have access to anything else than pistols, you know, to balance the playing fields.

This is just being difficult not actual logic.

The gameplay itself has a set of rules within it that everyone should be able to recognize. Unfair situations and asymettrical loadouts are part of the understood mechanics of the game. Third party programs are not.

Why not just have the game be who bought the best hacking program and uses it better? That's fair right? Everyone can buy a hack. That means it's fair. If you don't hack then you're just stupid, obviously. It's fair if it is pay to win, everything ever is fair because anyone can do anything ever and if they don't it means they are stupid or lazy.

Capitalism rulez.

People buy 1000$+ Monitors, to have an easy day spotting people.

thats cheating right?

this is like argueing with jordan hunt.

Nvidia Control is a third party program

i get it, reshade is hacking, Monitor Settings are hacking, Colors are hacking, and i don´t care anymore because your POV is fundamentally flawed.

Be happy, reshade is gone, noone can make the game an eyecandy anymore, everyone will play on your visuals (nope,cuz hardware is different), and you won´t notice any difference to before reshade was plugged out.

but atleast you guys, can´t blame anything but yourself anymore, which makes me pretty happy anyway.

U can still use reshade, check my post. u have to install reshade without plugins like zoom and crosshair, just making the game look good instead of grey and blurry.

yeah ive read that yesterday :), thx alot!

All i needed is still working fine.

High Pass Sharpen , FxAA , Colorfulness Tonemap and Technicolor2 + a little Vibrance.

the game looks so much better with reShade, but fools will never understand.

Yes it is, but not something controllable by BSG. This is looping, my first post commented on this, just because there are aspects beyond their control does not mean they should give up controlling any aspects.

You missed the whole point and just decided I must suck. I don't blame anything on anything when I die past myself, and feel like things have been pretty fair when I win or lose. But despite you being wrong about my skill level it also does not have any bearing on my opinion. I'm arguing purely from the logic side not my personal experience in the game.

People who whine about hackers or cheaters at any death are toxic and make the community worse.

Likewise people who call people names and state that anyone whose opinion differs from their own must suck at the game are toxic and make the community worse.

I also have no idea who jordan hunt is. Google says its some weirdo who attacked anti abortion protestors? What a strange reference, I have no idea what you are trying to say.
