Hey! Grabbed this little gem because it seemed absolutely perfect for adding just a little bit of detail to the game. Unfortunately when I tried to use it it had caused my game to freak out a bit and I have not been able to fix the issue on my own so I am looking for any assistance if anyone knows what is going on here. I had followed the steps exactly to install this mod, tried uninstalling Reshade completely and then reinstalled it, turned off FSR1 and set the game to fullscreen windowed, also tried disabling all of my third party overlays. Without this mod installed everything runs completely fine, but as soon as I add the file into the directory the game freaks out, I open Reshade and mess with the settings a bit but I ultimately haven't been able to figure out what has been causing this issue. Regardless of what I try the background remains entirely black and every overlay has this glitch effect to it. file:///F:/SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/VRising/VRising%202025-06-02%2014-55-15_111.png
New ReShade (6.5) requires latest RenoDX build, which I haven't had time to upload to Nexus yet. V Rising RenoDX nightly is available to download here, should work (and also supports FSR1).
The solution is the following "AMD FSR 1.0 enabled probably? Is not supported, can be disabled in game's Graphic Settings under "Advanced"." i would recomend you to put this on clarification on the Nexus post NotVoosh. Thank you for the mod, is really pretty! :D
My bad, you do clarify that it is not supported but maybe being a little more specific like "You need to disable your AMD FSR1 on the Graphics tab because it is not supported" could help people that are a little slow with tech some times like me hehe, thanks! :D
Oy, Thanks for the feedback and update on the situation. I didn't think game first starts with FSR1 enabled, but this seems to have changed since I first played in early access.
I've changed description to hopefully be a bit more clear in the meantime, and next build will have FSR1 support.
Current game .exe is "VRising\VRising.exe", should be the right one in most cases.
You can ignore the "v3" folder, as it is only to launch the old version of the game (before 1.1 patch). For information, a player willing to play the older version of the game would have to install everything in "v3" folder.
All good I get the concern. As far as I know mods are not allowed by game's Terms of Service, so there is no guarantee even using ReShade is safe. That said RenoDX addon does not provide any unfair advantage over other players.
In practice modding has been a thing since early access, when game had no offline mode yet, and I haven't heard of any unjustified ban. Or rather, all possibly unjustified bans seem to have been issued by private server owners (players) rather than game's company.
TLDR: all mods are against the rules, but practice has shown some tolerance as long as no cheat/abuse. Ultimately user's responsability
apparently I have to disable windows HDR and then it loads succesfully which kinda defeats the purpose EDIT2: I don't know anymore it succesfully loaded once & now it just fails whatever windows HDR mode
It looks very similar to what happens when game is set to Exclusive Fullscreen, can you start game without the mod and double check in-game Graphics settings? Window Mode should be Fullscreen Window or Windowed.
Windows HDR shouldn't really affect this... It is preferred ON to get full benefit from the mod.
*launches the game & checks* What the hell... I had changed it .... *changes the setting again* wait *relaunches the game one more time* ha ... the setting isn't being saved..... hummm what am I doing wrong here *tries again* riiiight it's not saving the setting so that's why *flabbergasted*
EDIT: I worked around the issue I manually set "WindowMode": 1, in ClientSettings.json instead of "WindowMode": 0,
Latest file has been automatically quarantined and is awaiting manual verification. I can see previous versions in file archive, 20241128 being the one before last.
If you prefer, current latest version is also available on Github, using corresponding snapshot button in RenoDX mods list (or this direct link).
Edit: my bad, just noticed archived files can't be downloaded. Will make sure to keep one file up in the future. Edit2: I figured how to restore files downloads from archives, old version should be available now..!

Thanks for letting me know.

More RenoDX mods and links can be found there.

Have fun!
C:\steam\steamapps\common\VRising\v3\VRising.exe
C:\steam\steamapps\common\VRising\VRising.exe
using reshade i dont know which to select, both?

disabling renodx makes the game startup successfully

Thank you for your input, it genuinely helped.
