This download does not contain pak files.It modifies the game's original pak files. You will need to copy the original pak files from [Your Gamedirectory]\dreamfall\bin\res into the "PakFiles_In" Folder and run "StartModPak.bat".
If this does not work, try opening StartModPak.bat in Notepad. and change the first line "set logfilename=Log_%DATE%" to "set logfilename=Log"
Or, if you are already using the hotfix version of StartModPak.bat change line 6:
"set logfilename=Log_%_logdate%" to "set logfilename=Log"
Those are reshade preset files. ReShade enables post-processing (like ambient occlusion, depth of field effects, color correction) for older dx9 games You'll need to - install reshade and select Dreamfall during installation, - download the quint shaders and copy them into the shaders directory. - copy the ini files into the game directory - run the Game (with antialiasing turned off in the Game-settings) - open reshade and select the preset. You´ll find much better and more detailed tutorials and guides on how to Install and use reshade and presets on YouTube. you can download reshade here: https://reshade.me/ The quint effects can be downloaded here: https://github.com/martymcmodding/qUINT The MXAO shader is free. The RTGI shader (screen space ray traced global illumination) is only available for patreon supporters: https://www.patreon.com/mcflypg
DreamingLeapFur, Thank you for making this mod available to public. The batch file didn't work for me either. I copy pasted your suggestion below to StartModPak.bat. It didn't work. Only after I replaced "set logfilename=Log_%_logdate%" on line 6 with the following "set logfilename=Log" was able to run it. After the bat file completed modding, I now see two log files Log.log as well as Log_Thu_01_12_2023.log. Thought it might be useful. Cheers.
The no-minigames scripts are just a part of the mod and installed by default. (see "readme" file (or tab "docs") for install instructions)Zoe will just pick locks or hack computers instantly without having to solve a minigame.
Hi! Can you help me with this? When I run the .bat file, it looks like this and nothing is in the Out folder.

Hi. Sorry for the inconvenience. It could be because I´m using the systemdate as logfilename. It might cause trouble because "\" is not allowed in a filename. I did not think of that. There is an updated version of the StartModPak.bat waiting to be approved in "miscellaneous files"
If you don`t want to wait: open the StartModPak.bat file in an editor and replace the content with this:
set _logdate=%date% set _logdate=%_logdate: =_% set _logdate=%_logdate:/=_% set _logdate=%_logdate:.=_%

You will need to copy the original pak files from [Your Gamedirectory]\dreamfall\bin\res
into the "PakFiles_In" Folder
and run "StartModPak.bat".
If this does not work, try opening StartModPak.bat in Notepad.
and change the first line
"set logfilename=Log_%DATE%"
to
"set logfilename=Log"
Or, if you are already using the hotfix version of StartModPak.bat
change line 6:
"set logfilename=Log_%_logdate%"
to
"set logfilename=Log"
(as Tolgha suggests below)
Hope this helps.
Dreamfall RTGI or MXAO reshade ini files. I just don't know what to do with them. How are they installed?
ReShade enables post-processing (like ambient occlusion, depth of field effects, color correction) for older dx9 games
You'll need to
- install reshade and select Dreamfall during installation,
- download the quint shaders and copy them into the shaders directory.
- copy the ini files into the game directory
- run the Game (with antialiasing turned off in the Game-settings)
- open reshade and select the preset.
You´ll find much better and more detailed tutorials and guides on how to Install and use reshade and presets on YouTube.
you can download reshade here:

The quint effects can be downloaded here:

The MXAO shader is free.

"set logfilename=Log_%_logdate%" on line 6 with the following

was able to run it.
After the bat file completed modding, I now see two log files Log.log as well as Log_Thu_01_12_2023.log.
