Installation for Windows:
1. Download and install the latest vulkan runtime, found here: https://sdk.lunarg.com/sdk/download/lat ... untime.exe
2. Download Sildur's Enhanced WAR v4.0.1-Vulkan and unpack all the files and folder into your warhammer folder, next to the war.exe / war-64.exe
3. Go inside the Reshade folder and edit the file "ReshadeVulkanPath32.reg" with a text editor of your choice.
4. Inside said file edit the path to match yours, pointing to the ReshadeVulkan32.json file inside the reshade folder. The path is done with double slashes //.
5. Save it and run/doubleclick the file and add it to your registry.
6. Launch the game and enjoy!
Installation for Linux:
1. Download Sildur's Enhanced WAR v4.0.1-VulkanLinux and unpack all the files and folder into your warhammer folder, next to the war.exe / war-64.exe
2. Open Winecfg (wine configuration) and add dinput8.dll and d3dcompiler_47.dll into dll overrides.
3. Launch the game and enjoy!
Notes:
Delete dinput8.dll and reshade.dll inside your warhammer folder if your coming from a previous version.
Vulkan working but reshade not? Maybe you have to edit the path inside ReShadeApps.ini aswell, pointing to your exe file. (windows only)
If you ever change your warhammer path, you will have to adjust the path in ReshadeVulkanPath32.reg aswell and run it again. (windows only)
If it doesn't work, make your hardware supports vulkan.
Uninstall:
Adjust the path in "Remove reshade registry.reg" and run it to remove the registry entry. (windows only)
Delete all the files that came with this mod.
Hotkeys:
Reshade can be toggled with F11
Ambient occlusion with F10
Distance blur with F9 (should only be used for screenshots)
OLD Installation (v3.0.1 and below):
1. Download Sildur's Enhanced WAR v3.0.1.
2. Unpack it in to your Warhammer online folder, where the war.exe is located at.
3. That's it, you're ready to go, just start the game and it should say something about reshade in the upper left corner.
If you're coming from a previous version before 2.0 and use a nvidia gpu, go into nvidia inspector and remove the warhammer profile or set it back to default, its no longer needed.

- Added a new option to fxaa, you can now adjust a square in which FXAA is enabled to prevent quest texts and just things on the edge of your monitor to be blurred.

- F10 now disables FXAA and sharpening if you want to reduce fozzy font even more.

v1.02:
- Removed enbinjector, because it sometimes fails to hook the game correctly.
- Added modified dinput8.dll, this file is used by warhammer but not present in the game's folder by default.
So the launcher won't patch it. It's now used to hook reshade.
v1.01:
- Updated reshade to 3.4, use F11 to toggle ingame effects on and off.
- Now using enbinjector instead of modified game files, so the launcher should no longer break it.

- Replaced enbseries+sweetFx with ReShade 2.0, some more changes to color highlighting.

- Removed FXAA, everythings way less blurry. Also no more fuzzy letters.
- FXAA has been replaced with MSAA, might be a bit more performance tanking.
- Fixed shimmering leaves.
