ReShade does not change anything on MHW.

I install ReShade on MHW, apply a preset ( Clear Hunter from nexusmods), but nothing changes. I can access that reshade menu in game but thats all. I've compared screenshots and there is zero difference.

I've installed things correctly.

I am not sure whats going on.

By "applying preset" do you mean actually choosing the preset "ClearHunter.ini" in the ReShade overlay?

Works for me. I only tried Depth3D, but downloading that .ini, all available default shaders (as it says to do, despite only using five of them), and selecting the ClearHunter.ini preset in the overlay works fine.

Not that I think it looks good... more contrast != more better, skies are messed up, and I'm getting pretty crazy artifacts when moving (large dark spots flashing about).
