GShade is a closed source fork of ReShade that includes specific improvements to usability and compatibility with whitelisted games. There was an incident in early Feburary 2023 where a poor decision was made by GShade's sole developer. The 4.1.1 update included anti-tampering code within the GShade installer that would restart Windows if a specific 3rd-party program was used to trigger functions within the installer to download certain assets independently (in an attempt to bypass a new GShade license agreement for certain textures and shaders). This code was removed after the obvious extremely negative reaction to the restart function from the community, but the reputational damage was already done. Therefore, do use this program at your own judgement. However, I do not want to punish innocent users who may not be able to use ReShade (e.g., Linux and Mac users) or may not have the technical ability to follow the install guides above. I have always held the stance that anyone may use and redistribute my presets or textures (as explained in my license). My assets were excluded from the GShade license as they have always been offered freely and independently on my GitHub. I encourage my presets to be bundled with any possible ReShade forks in the future (please do get in touch!).
