Reshade and Sims 2 Ultimate Collection - Help/Advice needed...
Hey there!
It's been a while since I've played Sims 2, and I'm slowly easing myself back into it. I seem to have the game running very well, I've done all the pre-maintenance for playing TS2 on a modern pc. My computer is capable of handling those nifty special effects, so it was only a matter of time before I wanted to test out Reshade; and that's where the problem lies.
I have the latest installation of Reshade, [3.1.0] and have tried different settings to get it to work properly- but to no avail. My game loads Reshade only on the DirectX9 setting and crashes when it's about to load into the neighborhood. [using opengl or directx10 instead only results in Reshade not loading at all.] I tried installing the earlier components for directx from the Microsoft website, but that didn't seem to help either. I know Reshade IS possible with Sims 2, I just can't seem to get it to work properly with my setup. There are others in the simblr community that are having similar problems, so it's not just my computer/setup that's gone funky.
If anyone could help, or lend some friendly advice on this, would be very, VERY appreciated.
If you need anything from me in the meantime, I'll upload it. [I'm not sure if any config files would be helpful in this particular case.]
Thank you!
