ReShade was downloaded, successfully installed and launched during the game, folder "reshades" for reshade presets was created in teh game folder, and your .ini preset was copied there.
I tried to select and activte the preset in the ReShade menu during the game, but it says the following: "no effect files (.fx) found in the configured effect search paths: ...Fallout New Vegas\reshades\..."
Changing the directory navigation in ReShade menu, reloading\reinstalling ReShade or the game itself does not have any effect.
I guess i'm doing sth wrong, since your archive only contains only an .ini file, and it seems like the program requires me to have an additional .fx file... Any chance you could provide some assistance?
No problem I got you.
So I recommend uninstalling your reshade from the FONV, and do a fresh installation and select DirectX 9 (or DX9)
(--ppl say it is compatible with Dx9+ and up but to be safe select DirectX 9 for the prompt.)
now check all effects on the "Select Effects to Install" -at the top right of this prompt you'll see
"Uncheck All" hit that then it it again to check all boxes. Saves you time from having to manually check each box yourself.
Put my file "Intereshade.ini" into your FONV folder were the exe is for the game.
Launch the game, and once at the main menu, After all the effects load in on the top indication.
hit the "Home" button on your keyboard & you should see a box appear, this is reshade in the game.
Now don't worry at all if you see red text warning Saying something like
--errors occurred loading some effects: check log for details
You can completely ignore this it harms nothing, and means the game simply won't use
some incompatible effects.
At the top of the blue box you'll see | < | > | ReshadePreset hit that and then find my Reshade ini.
Sorry if this wall of text seems detouring but I just wanna give clear instruction bc I am me. lol
Much love my friend! hope you enjoy it as I am, actually have it FNV runnin' now and probably gonna play while tweakin'
Never a dumb question, only half-assed answers lol
If you still got problems then I'll do my best to figure it out my guy.

EDIT-- Ima make this a sticky post so others can follow if they've been having issues with installation.
I was wondering if you could give me some tips on what exactly to adjust in the settings (or the INI file of the mod) to have a more smoother performance rate? My game was dropping frame rates that were way too low to play with (then again, I did find it kind of immersive in a way.) As well as knowing what other tweaks I can make to have certain features like UI to not be too blurry. Though maybe some other mods I have installed may not collaborate super well with this one so I guess I'll just look into that more.
I'm going to figure out all this on my own anyways, but I thought of asking for some help cuz why not.
Thanks for such an intricate and well made mod!
Thank you very VERY much!
Absolutely! but I must go by memory now, I don't have fnv installed at this time.
OK, so the cool benefit of this preset is you can lower the games graphics without any noticeable changes.
I recommend - actually just a sec. I'll do this in part 1 & 2
part #1 The games settings.
Ok, so I would lower all texture quality to Low or medium, Keep the view distance at high/maxed if you can,
(I hate things pop'n in objects,npc,shadows,buildings,ect... This kills immersion, if I can see far and wide I'm happy regardless of visuals,)
Shadows can be reduced to low or medium. Resolution is a heavy fps killer, I was happy enough with 1600x900, but 1366x768
Resolution is pretty good if you're on an fps budget. That alone or lowering it further might fix it completely, leaving only the UI blur problem.
My biggest recommendation is to lower the textures, BUT WAIT, there is a setting I know about in the reshade.ini
to basically sharpen image detail to look High Definition withoutmuch of an fps hit. Effectively potato textures, can be sharpened
specifically though reshade to appear ultra quality. I found this months after I released this mod.
(I found and experimented with sharpness filters on DarkSouls and (O,_O) wow I'm absolutely amazed ppl/companies don't do it for optimization.)
Cause 1k Textures for anything can appear to be 2k with this filter to dynamically sharpen 1kpx1kp, it's like magic.
part #2 The Reshade
Ok dokie, so - .. I took a few minutes just now to see if I can disable anything that could be fps harsh.
Sadly I did a very compact job from what I can tell, cause all that's there shakes hands with the others.
You could disable AmbientLight and BloomAndLensFlares setting, Idk if it'll squeeze 2-4 frames or not. needs some testing.
But all the other settings are blood-relatives to eachother lol, meaning everything breaks without the other. 1 for all/all for 1.
NOW for the setting I mentioned before "HD Potato Textures." seriously though, you or anyone reading this please try this out!
The setting is called "DECL_Sharpen [qUINT_Sharp.fx]" This is a chad of filters. find it, enable, and adjust the sharpen strength to preference.
There are other sharpness filters if this one is misbehaving with your amd/nivid drivers.

Blur fix! if it's over done/whelming or you hate it, the fx name is called N64_Filter [N64_3Point.fx]
This is the filter I used to smear the games visuals to look retro-relic-of-the-past vibes.
Now if you like it but it's too strong you can adjust it by tinkering with "screen width/screen height"
to your liking so you can still keep the vibes. As for me, I like it rn, but if I was to adjust it for someone else
I would change
Screen_W 942.000
Screen_H 672.000 and see if clears it up without removing the vibe.
UI fix! Now... the DosFX_Tech [Dos_game.fx] is responsible by no surprise, but can be tinkered.
This is a core filter for the True retro-vibe. so I recommend NOT disabling it, but tuning it.
Same as N64 filter, adjust Screen_W/H and tune it with your pipboy out so you can see in realtime
to make the UI more legible,
That's all I can do right now gotta GO! literally now,
Path of Exile 2 releases in 10 minutes as of writing this message!
WHOOOOOHOOOOO, good thing I checked this page, if I didn't It probably would've been months before I saw you comment
This is for everyone to read btw, incase ppl wanna change stuff and which setting does what. Ahh 9 mins to POE2
LOVE YOU ALL,
LOVE you Joanna thanks again!
I am still tuning it, and I will update my page with all my visual mods
I use that add lights effects and offer suggestions for HC experience.
Love that you're loving it, legit makes me happy to know. :)
Sorry for late reply, notifications didn't notify me.
I'm very happy you're enjoying it, you n' me are two peas in pod with this retro approach.
lol yes for me I found it on some occasions troublesome to read but I just would keep the pip zoomed in
I probably logged 20-30 hours of this preset so my eyes trained themselves after awhile.
However toggle is the smart IQ approach to what I did lol <3
Thanks man! really

I am basically a modern hermit with an internet connection.
I don't even have an active phone number to be reached IRL
Hate phones, and everything needs a # nowadays.
Anywho!!
setup is barely 2 mins,
1 Download my file, and copy Intershade.ini into your root folder.
2 Launch game and open Reshade pressing [HOME]
3 find my reshade in the presets at the top pane.
I say try it out, play for a few mins maybe 10 to see if you're vibin' or not
Just remember to set your In-game brightness to max and you'll see what I see.
Also thanks my friend! I appreciate it, :)
Thanks for asking though, I don't mind questions at all!
Best thing I can suggest is turning Ambient Occ off (saves fps)
If you have fps to spare then leaving it on.
I know nothing about Vulcan api,
Oh sorry for late reply! I got no notifications so I didn't know till I thought to check
my page just to see if anything happened. Probably too late to reply to you but still
my apologies.

I will add other sets of it soon, like 1 for HC, meaning you need nightvision.
One for easier visibility, and one that's a compromise of both visions.
are enjoying it!
Thanks! love to love my man!
