Greetings.

I did a check, and I couldn't find my exact issues having been posted, at least not with the 4.1 version of ReShade, so I'm making a new post on the matter.

I currently have two different issues with ReShade 4.1 and FFXIV.

DX11
Whenever I run ReShade with the DX11 client, I'll end up crashing. Sometimes this happens after hours of play, sometimes it happens only after a few minutes. Once I do crash, I can't actually get back into the game without crashing almost instantly unless I nuke ReShade, or run in DX9.

Some of this seems to be some sort of error in the DX11 coding for FFXIV, because it does happen sometimes when ReShade isn't installed. It just happens a hell of a lot more often with ReShade than not.

DX9
So, I am often having to run FFXIV in their DX9 mode. However, it seems I cannot get ReShade to work with DX9 at all. It just doesn't load with the DX9 client, even if I've installed it for DX9. I tried using a .dll file from here for DX9, and even that doesn't help. I also tried renaming the file for DX9 to dxgi.dll but that didn't help either.

I'll take a fix for either client, but I'd prefer the DX11 one. I use mods (which ironically aren't causing the crash, because I can play for ages with them without a problem), so I'd prefer to fix the DX11 client.

Thanks in advance for any time and effort put towards this issue!
