Safety Precautions:

  • | Issue | Solution | |-------|----------| | RTGI not appearing in shader list | Check the folder path in ReShade settings. You may have installed to My Documents instead of game folder. | | Purple/rainbow screen | Missing texture files. Re-copy the .png files from the RTGI archive into reshade-shaders/Textures. | | Flickering shadows / depth buffer fighting | Go to ReShade settings → “Depth” tab. Tick “Copy depth buffer before clear” and “Disable post-processing in menus”. | | Game crashes on launch | Remove ReShade temporarily. Then reinstall using the correct API (e.g., Witcher 3 uses DX11, not DX12). | | No lighting difference (flat image) | RTGI needs a proper depth buffer. In ReShade settings → “Depth” tab, check “Display depth”. If you see a flat white or black image, RTGI cannot work. Try forcing “Use Alternate Depth Detection”. | (Ray-Traced Global Illumination) refers to a popular ReShade

    • v014 and earlier: Heavy grain, fireflies, requires external denoisers.
    • v018 and v019: Added support for colored specular but broke compatibility with many DX9 games.
    • 01702 (Goldilocks build): Stable across DX10–12. Best documentation. Works with almost every preset from the community. Performance is predictable.
    • v020+ (Patreon alpha): Requires specific hardware (RTX 40 series) for best results, has steeper learning curve.

    1. Run ReShade_Setup.exe.
    2. Click “Select game” and browse to your game’s executable (e.g., Cyberpunk2077.exe, Witcher3.exe, SkyrimSE.exe).
    3. Choose the rendering API that matches your game (usually DirectX 10/11/12 or Vulkan). If unsure, check PCGamingWiki.
