[SOLVED] Silent Hill 2 CTD when Reshade loads

I attempted Reshade with Master Effect on Silent Hill 2
Reshade set up detected d3d8.dll so I went along with it, pasted my Reshade.fx settings along with everything else. When I load up the game, as soon as Reshade says "Compiling effect..." In the top left corner of the screen, the game crashes to Desktop.

I had all shaders set to 0.

I really hope the issue can be assessed. If I posted in the wrong section, sorry about that, dont think I did though.

I also got a CTD but I managed to make it work by using the old way: The ENB convertor.

I got warnings with the normal SFX and the gauss effect Ioxa ported to ReSahde: i.imgur.com/q66DYEW.jpg

Thank you, I guess a workaround is nice. Might not be the place to ask, but did you run the resolution patch to play at a higher res than normal.

because it did not work for me.
>Run game
>640 x 480
>Run patch
>1920 x 1080
>Patch applied
>Load game
Still jaggies everywhere and same quality render res as before

Or could I just downsample the game somehow, set my own custom resolution through HEX Edit?

I didn't use it, but left it here as a back up. I am guessing that it does the same of what I did long ago, altering in the .exe so the 640x480 will actually correspond to another resolution. I had mine set to 1920x1200.

So, install the patch and select the resolution you want to play, when inside the game options, select 640x480 and it should be normal.

I know this isnt the place to keep bumping the topic, add me on steam man.

This is why it crashes.
Mind creating a tracelog and posting the part around this error message which contains the disassembled shader? ReShade fails to convert a D3D8 shader to D3D9 here and I need to know how that shader looked like to fix it.

Crosire, I am posting here the logs from Silent Hill 2 and 3. Both of them crashes upon start with ReShade on. Both set to D3D8.


I'd like to beg you for forgiveness, since I can't isolate it as it seems that you would like it. I am terrible sorry. Because of that, I will post the entire trace log here...

I hope I did it, at least, not entirely wrong.

Your logs are missing the parts I was talking about, so I'd suspect you have a different issue.

Perhaps it is because of how we did to handle the widescreen support for this game? There is a patch that modifies the exe for you and you can do it manually also. Maybe it is because of that? Well, anyway, thank you for looking. Mayhap someday, in the Future, it get fixed when you fix something else haha

For now, I can use the workaround mentioned earlier.

Fixed in 0.15.0.

Great

Thats what I thought. Also, Im lazy, how do I create a tracelog?

1. Elevated CMD
2. "logman update perf_log -bs 128 -nb 10 25"
3. ???
4. Load game? heh

I honestly dont know.
