Mislinked presets fixed. All my wildlands presets is now aviable. Sorry for the downtime for a few months. Enjoy. :)

Does anybody here have SLi GPU enabled. Can you please try and reshade mod and let me know if it will load your level?

Most of my prests was gone a while due changes in my filestructures and rehosting. They are now aviable again. Hope noone got disappointed when trying to grab any of them. As always. Enjoy. My pleasure to share with the community. :)

Untrusted File Startup Error Fix:

Use ReShade version 3.0.8
(link: https://www.mediafire.com/folder/8ar1jhh1809cl/ReShade_Repository#bow1ko4203njp)

Newer ReShade versions are blocked by Ubisoft's anti-cheat/file verification software.

Any new unposted presets? ;)

ugh, its definitly a SLi+Reshade issue. I tried Watch Dogs 2, and same thing as this GRW when they are both enabled. Game will crash upon level loading, but won't crash if one or the other is disabled.

Dammit!

I found a fix to my crash at startup.

Solution use an older Reshade. GRW loads with 3.0.8.

Next problem is Reshade+SLi will cause a level to crash after loading.

Have to use on or the other. Is anyone able to fix this?

AssassinsDecree

None of these will work if I select DX9 from the reshade setup

Keep getting a crash on startup, with a msg stating files may be untrusted.

I tried the OpenGL install instead, but that did nothing ingame.

Use an older version of reshade, should fix your issue, i had the same one on other games:

I can't remember who maintains this repository, but it's been a Godsend.

Or this https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/3841-add-take-ownership-context-menu-windows-10-a.html

Maybe running Tke Ownership shell for windows 10 might do the trick. https://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-menu-in-vista/

Anyone know how to get ReShade working? I am getting Untrusted Files Errors. Which versions of ReShade are known to work?

I included my settings for AmbientLight to RealWildlands decription page https://sfx.thelazy.net/games/preset/8820/. I did not change preset however so it can be used only for those interested. See first 3 screenshots. :)

Update (again) for Realwildlands :P. Preset is now FINISH. APologize spamming the comments. :)

https://sfx.thelazy.net/games/preset/8820/

Enjoy.

Ps: I gave credits in presets it was included in ;)

I just found that I by accident used Wavebends LUT for Wildlands when messing in my folders. So I wanna give him greets for making it and apologize. Done is done. Yet. I already proven my skills with Cinematic reality and Clear Experience (last using my own LUT). So it doesn't feel to sad. Anyways, cheers. Honest I am it had to be said. :)

AssasinsDecree: Another tip regarding post 24 Dec 05:51 CET. One thing is not to go to heavy on the curves. But when autocorrecting, my trick is to not touch the black white balance, bur just the grey on by clicking on grey areas in the image from game in Gimp until I like what I see. Rest can easy be tweaked in Gimp and/or Reshade. Lights bleed should only be like bloom effects and ambienlights. But to heavy and you dont even see the sun in the game. :). Hope it helps. Btw: You are very creative, can see thats on your downloadrating. Ppl like it. ;)

AziD,
Wow! It looks beautiful. Nice job eliminating the awful yellow filter in the vanilla game. Thanks, I really appreciate the LUT tips!

Clear Experience released

Replaces Cinematic Experience due rewamp of the whole preset.

AssassinsDecree Cool, not jerky at all. About Luts, if doing curves, just dont go to high in the higher curve, that make lights bleed alot. I found to just change the Colorbalance and playing with saturation in Gimp do wonders if tweaked very carefully, and then autocorrect it to clear image up, then if needed small finetunings to you like it. Thats how I made my latest now. Take a look in my next comment. :)

AziD,

Cool, thanks so much! I hope I didn't come off too jerky. You're presets are really good and kudos for figuring out how to do a LUT properly. I've tried to learn recently but I can't do one properly to save my life. My colors get all screwed up and I get odd purple lights in the sky.

Happy Holidays!

AssassinsDecree:

Aye. Can do. :). I am currently gonna remove some of the lesser good ones of them and just leave the good ones. Then I will upload a Lut based cinematic one soon. Been working a couple of days with it, but not satisfied yet with it. ;)

Hey AziD, cool presets. A small request, if you make updates to your ReShades, can you just update that same page/preset, rather than making a whole new page? It would cut down on the clutter a lot. You can rename the titles and descriptions and replace the preset data with the updated one.

Just asking. Thanks for considering.

Cheers.

Hey aSakofDonuts (great name btw),

Just out of curiousity, did you try putting the game in borderless-windowed, as opposed to full screen, before running the game with ReShade 3.0.7?

Also, which version did you choose when running the .exe? I've been using DirectX 8/9 since launch, but that's on 3.0.6. Did you try the other two options methods too?

Thanks so much for posting this!

For anyone that needs the 3.0.6 framework, you can download my Nexus version. I don't know where to get old version of ReShade in the 3.0 framework, so hopefully this helps someone.

http://www.nexusmods.com/ghostreconwildlands/mods/1/?

Cheers, Merc

Wildlands won't work with Reshade 3.0.7 as of this date. Must install 3.0.6 then it will work after a little work. if you install 3.0.7 you'll get a game out of date error and it will close. also i had to manually create the ini files. as well as reshade doesn't seem to like using periods in the file name.

Trial and so much error @VoidRider2017. So. Much. Error. *cries in corner* Lol.

OHH. I know a lot of people were reporting SLI issues at launch, I thought their patch fixed it.

Nvidia released optimized drivers since the game launched as well, make sure they're up to date too?

The official forms should have people talking about how to disable SLI. I don't have the SLI setup so no idea how to help, though I know it has something to do with Nvidia Control Panel settings.

Hope you get it working soon, friend.

I found the problem. I have to disable SLI :(
I think i have to wait for a patch or something. but thanks for the guide :D

this guy @AssassinsDecree knows his SHIT...
Read the instructions carefully and your dreams will come true, let's dream all together...(I don't know WTF happened there, sorry...)

@VoidRider2017 YES!
@MaD_CHAINSAW NO!
Can you walk me through everything you're doing?
The abridged version to install would be:
1. Run game without ReShade installed, and be 8000% percent sure you have it set and saved to Borderless-Windowed mode or regular windowed mode and not Fullscreen.
2. Go here: https://reshade.me/
3. Download ReShade 3.0.6 from the button at bottom of page
4. Run the .exe that downloads.
5. Follow the instructions it gives, including selecting you GRW.exe file in the main folder for the game (called the root directory officially, I think) and be over 9000 (I know) percent sure you select the bubble that says DirectX 8/9.
Say "yes" when it ask if you want to download a standard collection of effects and shaders.
6. You should see a message in the box you've used to install that says successful/done, something like that. A new box does not pop up.
7. Look in your root directory where GRW.exe lives and you should now have two new files and one new folder -- folder is "reshade-shaders"
files are "d3d9.dll" and "d3d9.ini"
8. Run your game, you should get a gray reshade box (quite large, can't miss it if it's working) at the top of your screen that says it's loading effects. Definitely don't press anything or alt-tab to a different window while this is happening. Don't even move your mouse, for safe measure)
9. If you've made it this far, you're in great shape and your ReShade should work from here on out, but here's the rest of the instructions because I clearly lied about giving you an abridged version. I can't give anyone the abridged version of anything.
10. Once the reshade is finished loading all its effects, press shift+f2 together and the ReShade menu should come up.
11. Select the plus-sign-looking thing off to the right-top of the window. Name it whatever you want, just don't put any symbols, especially not a period. Follow the extremely short like 3 button tutorial that should be on screen from Reshade. Close your game when done.
12. Copy either the .ini file from my ReShade at the link provided in my description or for any ReShade that uses the 3.0 framework (maybe even 2.0/sweetfx) go to their page and copy the text from that file at the bottom of the preset pages.
13. Go back to your game's root directory where GRW.exe lives and open the file you just gave that name to in step 12, it will have a .ini extension (never change that extension). Open in notepad or whatever works for you. I don't think regular word works. Just use notepad.
13. Replace all the text in the .ini file you just opened with the text you should have copied from my page or another preset's page.
14. Don't forget to save that file now.
15. Profit!
16. If you aren't busy profiting after completing step 15, then try disabling the Uplay in-game overlay from the Uplay settings menu in the desktop app.
Disable the steam overlay as well.
Run the game as administrator.
Run the game in Windows Vista (not kidding) compatibility mode regardless of your actual operating system. Don't forget to hit apply as you're making your changes.
17. Please let me know if this works. (reposted to fix numbering errors)

on step 7, that should say "you should now have..."

@VoidRider2017 YES!

@MaD_CHAINSAW NO!

@AssassinsDecree
I've followed your instructions, now is working perfectly, thanks.
People follow AssassinsDecree instructions to make Reshade 3.0.6 work with this game.
Cheers.

Doesn´t work for me.

@VoidRider2017

Hope it works! Let me know if you can.

@AssassinsDecree
Thanks, I'll give it a try.

@AssassinsDecree
Thanks, I'll give it a try.

@VoidRider2017

Also some recording software crashes the game too I think. I use OBS and that works well for me.

@VoidRider2017

I understand your pain. Check my preset, I have detailed instructions if you're getting crashes on launch.

It involves using the DirectX 8/9 version of Reshade 3.0.6 and running the game in borderless windowed instead of fullscreen. You still get the full-screen of the game, if you're worried.

Hope this helps.

Well, none of the presets seems to be working anymore, game crashes on loading...any way to fix it?

Thanks. Yea I was definitely installing it right, but I have a software incompatibility or something. Ubi just released a patch and Nvidia did a driver update Friday and Thursday, respectively, now I can run the game in borderless windowed mode and my ground textures finally load now. Reshade works with BW mode if I rename the dxgi's to d3d9. Or you could just install the directx 9 version from the get go.

@AssassinsDecree

First make sure you have deleted any previous installed reshade files. All DLL files like dxgi.dll or d3d11 etc. And Reshade-shaders folder.

I have tried GR Wildlands Real life mode preset in fullscreen and it works for me.

You only have to download 1 folder, unpack it. And install the file into your GR folder thats it.

Has anyone got any reshades to work with Fullscreen mode? For me and many others ground textures simply refuse to load in the game's two windowed modes. The reshade works in the windowed modes. In Fullscreen mode the game CTD's instantly upon getting pass the opening video. No problems with fullscreen without reshade. I've tried renaming the dxgi files to d3d11 but then the game tells me my files are out of date and then CTDs. It's hell.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
