Graphic Enhancement for V11

[The End]

Since 32bit "Hook" is incompatible with V11, I've been experimenting with ways to improve the appearance of V11 using available 3rd Party graphic mods. You are HIGHLY encouraged to experiment with the settings, but I keep coming back to the included settings for best overall performance & appearance.)

Using a combination of "ReShade 5.x" (vastly improved over earlier versions) and "DxVk" (the free DirectX to Vulkan translator [included]), you can noticeably improve the appearance of V11. Note: "Vulkan" is the the Open Source alternative to DirectX 12 maintained by nVidia, AMD and Apple.) Sample screenshots below:

Don't be put off by the fact V11 is still using 20 year old "DirectX 9". Using "DxVk"... the Vulkan interpreter... it's possible to reproduce DX10/11/12 quality graphics.

(NOTE: ReShade affects ALL graphics including menus, so don't be thrown by poorly colored menus & text.)

hmmm, this just made my screen go blurry. oh well

It´s ok but I really hope someone will find a solution to use Hook 5 in V11, because it´s the only important thing I feel is missing, but it´s also with no doubt the biggest improvement thing that ever happened to this game so without it V11 never comes close to replacing VX version. Let´s hope :)

 Hi the Mega link doesn't work anymore, can you upload it again please? also many links I've encountered here that direct to other threads on this same forum don't work, it links to some weird trackers and a suspicious site but never back into the forum.

Those old phoenixgarden .cc links were fixed and should work properly now. Sorry about that.

Yeah, what they meant is that other links within the forum are working but no one reuploaded or updated the link for the mega with reshade, hopefully someone from the team will see this

Kellyxnx, The End, which use to be OysterMug is no longer a member here. That was his personal project " QUOTE: "Since 32bit "Hook" is incompatible with V11, I've been experimenting with ways to improve the appearance of V11" So, the chance of it being re uploaded, sadly, is slim none.

The sad truth is that V11 without hook 5 is of no use if you don´t accept old outdated graphics :( I hope they figure out how to get x64 and hook 5 to work one day, but it seems like a dead end.
