I'm using your MXAO since it is a beautiful effect and much more performance friendly than ENB AO. I tried to tweak some settings but couldn't get rid of the cartoonish effect over distant landscape, most notably on mountains. Combining with Bloom or Magic HDR seems to make it less noticeable, but it is still there on cloudy/rainy weathers.
I keep just getting a bunch of errors when running these shaders for some reason. I'm running on version 3.0 of Reshade, so that isn't the issue. I wish I knew how to post the log for more information on what's happening. EDIT: Figured it out. I had to get the archived files from https://github.com/crosire/reshade-shaders/tree/master and delete all the shaders and put yours in their place.
Thanks for your work. I think a lot of people would love to see your updated ReShade mod. ENB is poorly optimized (or maybe not optimized at all). I'm not willing to sacrifice 40-60 fps of my unlocked framerate just to use ENB.
Step 3 of your Installation says: "Select "no" for the example shader library prompt"
There is no prompt for an 'example shader library prompt'. There are instead a few different install windows. Figured it out, but I had to read a Reshader tutorial.
ReShade 4 did a lot of changes to the compiler, I'd have to manually update the shaderfiles to make it work. Since I'm working on an ENB for SSE, I don't really want to do this. You can go ahead and install any version of ReShade 3 and have it working, but the mod here is severely outdated (ENB was rudimentary at that point), I'd recommend to choose a different graphics mod for the time being.
I just tried this out with the new Reshade 4.0.2, having never successfully run any ENB or Reshade before (the basic ENB files keep my game from starting). This looks very nice. No one effect is so strong as to be glaringly obvious but taken together the results are a big improvement over vanilla. One thing I did notice is that the DoF wouldn't run and generated an error notice, but since I've yet to see a DoF I liked I don't miss it at all.

Any tips?
