Is Reshade permissible to use on Project 1999?
The website for Reshade is https://reshade.me/
The program alters graphics shader settings? Not entirely sure how it would interact with the client, or if it is even compatible. I wanted to see if it would get me in trouble before I began tinkering around. I saw one other post referencing Sweetfx which I think is a similar program. Thank you!

If it alters the game in order to give you an advantage over other players then no it isn't allowed.

It looks like it's just a "make old games look better" program, more akin to the enhanced re-texturing project. As such I'd expect that it would be allowed.

I just recently learned about it and it is for aesthetic purposes generally speaking. Some of these types of modifications are available through a graphics cards' native "control panel" programs (e.g., overriding a program's native anti-aliasing settings) but Reshade offers a variety of extra functions. I'm not sure that it would provide an advantage but I think it may do something to the client to access the shaders. I don't really know enough about the technical processes involved.
Here is another post from about a year ago https://www.project1999.com/forums/s...d.php?t=246796 that seems to suggest the guy had already tried running reshade (or some aspect of it)

It also appears that people have done this with older versions of the program - are you aware of any instances where reshade or other graphics modifications flagged the P99 "monitoring" system and caused issues? Edit: Here is a similar discussion from 2013 that appears to use an "injection" based process as well: http://www.project1999.com/forums/sh...hlight=texture

So, has there been an official verdict on Reshade.me? Because I love using this program to make games look better. Especially old ones!

Bumping this thread (given the recent thread about ReShade); is it permitted?

I'd like to know this as well. I used to use SweetFX but i cant live without ReShade now. Even official GeForce drivers include ReShade sooooo...

Bumping this because there doesn't seem to be an official answer and Reshade can simulate scanlines kinda like a CRT monitor, and I'd love to have that on Green/Teal.
Also as Faxi has mentioned, Geforce drivers are officially supporting Reshade now. | ||
