Hi everyone, I have a question - Is there a recommended location or folder for placing ReShade add-ons, other than the game's root directory? I was hoping there might be a default dedicated folder, like 'reshade_addons', that ReShade looks up before resorting to root.

Thanks for your time!

You can place them wherever you want, the directory add-ons are loaded from is configured at the very top of the Add-ons page in the overlay. So change that to some other path, move your add-on files there and you are good.

Alternatively it can also be manually specified in ReShade.ini via:
[ADDON]
AddonPath=C:\my\path\to\addon\directory

I never noticed the search path field there, thanks for pointing that out and for all the other info as well! Does ReShade looks recursively into subdirectories?
