How to Install ReShade for the Sims 4 - 2023 Complete Guide/Tutorial

[@od11225]

Out off the 20 vids i've watched you're the 1st person to help me figure this out. Thank you!!!!!!😭

[@bby504]

I had so much trouble locating the Sims 4 file but thanks to you I finally found it!! I appreciate this video enormously you're a complete lifesaver!

[@shandabey]

I had trouble after following everything from a different youtuber, I'm guessing it was just my software and not the actual video - but your video really helped a lot, and it was actually so easy... blows my mind that the previous one didn't work out like it did yours. So thank you!

[@ChupacabraTutorials]

Yeah this video was created because of someone elses confusion. So I made this to help. Glad its working.

[@LJSheffRBLX]

Your content is a true gem in the vast sea of content.

[@ChupacabraTutorials]

Thanks. I really appreciate that.

This was super helpful :)

[@ChupacabraTutorials]

Thats good to hear!

[@Izumi._.Aesthetic]

Tysm ! That seem to work! I'll try it later 😊

[@jardinejordan2581]

I installed this exactly as you did, but its not showing up in my game. Nothing happens when i press the home button either .. any idea what i maybe did wrong?

[@graceconnelly4629]

I have the same issue, following~

[@siIIyguy]

just figured out the solution for this. You have to go to Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 and delete your GameVersion text file, then run the sims4 game in the bin folder: note that this only works for legitimate versions of the game, if you have a pirated one it wont work at all. good luck 🫡

You saved my life i was wondering why no presets were showing up

[@2vins]

Once I downloaded everything I tried opening sims 4 and it didn't work (issues with the graphic card apparently). I'm not kidding when I say I almost shat my pants thinking I just messed up the whole game and could never play again. So I literally sat in front of my pc for like 10 minutes before I realized the tutorial had also mentioned how to uninstall ReShade again. Followed the steps and I'm glad to say the issue with opening sims didn't last... the shock, however, probably will for a bit longer...

[@ChupacabraTutorials]

yeah and even when you're an experienced game modder, things can still randomly break even when you dont do anything different than you did the last time. Its just sort of a thing. Glad to hear you got your issue sorted out

[@taytaysells]

I have a question. I see some people are able to turn the reshade on and off with a click while in game how do I do that.

[@ChupacabraTutorials]

You can assign preset groups a keybinding and toggle it on and off that way. Technically its always on, you just enable and disable sets of effects.

I HAVE THE SIMS 4 BUT WHEN I GO TO SELECT IT NOTHING POPS UP EVEN IF I GO TO BROWES HELP PLZ!!!!!

[@milia-jr9mg]

it says that I had d3d9.ddl is installed but does not belong to reshade. what do I need to do?

[@maliah8158]

For some reason I used to have reshade installed into the sims and I have been trying to uninstall and reinstall it due to it (I think)breaking after the recent update, but now even after uninstalling it and reinstalling and repairing my game as well as the ea app, its not working at all…I just get a white start screen after the intro has been loading forever, so weird :/

[@princesse0920]

Hey how did you get the Reshade banner to disappear? I’ve been trying but can’t get it to work

[@Zerioici]

in my the sims not working,not showing the reshade menu

[@rarararlly]

WHATS THE HOME BUTTON OMG-?!

[@mirraish7247]

if your keyboard is too small it might not have it! best way for me was to use the windows on-screen keyboard (which you can find by just typing into the windows search bar) and use the home key on that!! :DDD

[@rarararlly]

@@mirraish7247 I found it haha

[@marzy4]

What is the home button???😭

[@ChupacabraTutorials]

Between your letter keys and the num pad are keys like del, page down, page up, insert, end.... And home. It's often above your arrow keys. If your keyboard doesn't have those it might be an issue

[@marzy4]

@@ChupacabraTutorials omg i swear im dumbb😭 thank u🫶🏻 sorry for the inconvenience

[@kuronerowy]

i cannot press the home button bcs it just dragged me to my desktop... do u have any solution?? or like just how to delete in general bcs that pop up thing wont go away :(

[@ChupacabraTutorials]

Removing the bot is as easy as running the installer again, but instead of selecting install you select remove.

[@Nonpain]

there is a reshade.ini file located in th sims 4 bin folder you can change the keybinding there .

[@Dani-iu2ib]

Where can I locate the home but?

[@ChupacabraTutorials]

its generally next to the number pad. Above the arrow keys. Unless you're on laptop.
