I'm using the Reshade to play Cyberpunk 2077, and all the effects work fine. One problem is that the Reshade causes the game significant lag after reloading a save. Basically, everything works fine before I play missions in the game. Since some missions require reloading the map, switching game scenes, or even just reloading a save, the game will appear laggy. The more times the game reloads, the more serious this situation goes. At first, the lagging may not be notable, but when I open the character interface in the game, the fps only has 20 something (This only appears after reloading, and this situation will never appear if the game doesn't reload) The quick fix I found is to restart the game and everything will be fixed, but the same lagging issue will appear again, so I will have to restart the game about every 2 hours.....

I doubt this is not a hardware or resource allocation issue since I'm currently using a 4090 graphic card, 13900KF CPU, and 64GB memory RAM. I tested the game performance without installing the Reshade, and the game performed smoothly even after playing for more than 6 hours. In addition, I compared theĀ game's performance with or without the Reshade, and it turns out the Reshade doesn't cause many FPS drops when the game first starts but without reloading. Perhaps there are certain settings I didn't manage right is the reason causing this lagging issue.

I really appreciate the Reshade effect that makes this game look, so could someone help me figure out or fix this issue?
