THE RESHADE MASTERGUIDE || Star Stable Online

Here it is - the video I've been working on for so long! I've tried to include as much information and show as much as I can, while not rambling on too much... Hopefully, you guys understand more why and not just *how*. As stated in the video, please join the SSPC Discord server to get any further help you may need - it is impossible to troubleshoot thoroughly in the comment section, and in the server we have some fantastic staff members who are ready to help you during most hours of the day.

BEFORE ANYONE ASKS: NO, Reshade does NOT work on MACS. WINDOWS ONLY!

[@Annie-oo4yk]

Do you know if there are any alternatives?

[@RebeccaRavenbird]

@@Annie-oo4yk no rhere isn't

[@GoldenStarFilm]

@@Annie-oo4yk Yes, you can use a cloud gaming streaming platform - I use Shadow pc, its a paid subscription but it streams a windows pc to your Mac/iPad/iPhone so you have a portable PC meaning you can play any windows game on Mac, including installing reshade for ssd

[@GoldenStarFilm]

You can install reshade on Mac through a cloud streaming gaming platform. There's plenty available now, some US only, I use shadow pc - it's available in most regions, but it requires a subscription. This streams a windows 11 pc with a 3070ti graphics card to your iPad/iPhone/MacBook/any device with a solid internet connection & monitor, so any system can use shadow. Then you can technically play SSO with reshade even on iPad, as it's a stream of a windows pc. Ive been using it for over a month now on my Mac, have been playing everything from RDR2 on ultra to SSO with reshade.

[@RebeccaRavenbird]

@@GoldenStarFilm last time I used Shadow PC I did not receive much of a performance boost. Plus I had connection issues frequently. So perhaps it was a me issue, but that was my experience

[@cocolucia]

this is a LIFE SAVER!! i’ve been having problems for sooooo long and this video helps SO MUCHH! i love having a visual guide to help, thank you for making this video!❤

YOU ARE A LIFE SAVER OMG. RESHADE IS EVERYTHING. THANK YOU SO MUCH JESS. I HAVE HAD SO MUCH STRUGGLE WITH OTHER TUTORIALS BUT THIS ONE WORKED.

[@theclaretmare]

Awesome! Thank you for this!

[@Sailas.Equestrian]

This tutorial saved me from the horrors that was my reshade depth lol-

[@wolvhard]

you are a LIFESAVER!!! ❤❤❤

[@saraiii3]

I have done all steps, but I can't connect to the game..? I keep getting unable to connect..

[@katsukibomb]

OMG ILY SO MUCH AAAA 🥹🥹

[@Kara.Volcanomoon]

Omg Im runing for my computer❤

[@lilah.equestrian]

hey can anyone help me with this problem I'm having lmao i've just got reshade for the first time and i've done everything in this tutorial, but when i click off the display depth like she does at 8:52 nothing happens and i'm wondering if it's bc on my reshade it doesn't come up with half of the effects that she's got like the adaptive fog etc, do i need to download these things or add them in some how? i've also tried using other people's presets and those haven't worked either, i'm wondering if it's because of the same issue! if anyone has a suggestion please help me out 😭

[@haleyalmondpeak1302]

how do I blur the background of presets?

[@larajanewagner]

i have that purple and white thing when i put the displaydepth thing on. im so confused what she said can someone please explain it in simpler words?

[@laurakordova9261]

Me too:(

[@sevwev]

I have the same issue has anyone found a fix 😢

[@tanzilki]

idk why bud the blur doesen't work for me since 2/3 months, what can I do?

[@wingsofatlantis]

would it be possible for you to make a preset making video? I’ve seen the one where you mention some popular effects but I was wondering if you could share more about creating your own presets!

[@JessNorthwood]

There’s not really much to it, you just put together the effects that create a look you want. I’m not sure a tutorial is very helpful, since it’s so individual and down to your own preferences

[@slottetgomorgonsol2298]

@@JessNorthwood when i make a new folder to put my presets in it says i cant choose it?

[@laurakordova9261]

When I click the Display depth it shows left part purple and right one white :( I clicked on Copy depth bigger before clear operations.. How to fix it?🥺🥺

[@felinepeters857]

How can I make photos in sso whit reshade, because if I want to take a picture it blurs the whole screen:))

[@Mars_14]

What if i cant open file location..

[@TBSPIDER]

When I click on the Discord link I dont see what you're showing.. also my presets keep flickering on and off.

[@Olivia_and_dusty]

Can you have reshade on mobile or is it only windows?

[@CloudyCreekEquestrian]

I know that Jess is not going to answer this, but since I do not have discord I would hope that someone can help me here. I used Epic games to download SSO ; So When I click SSO Client it shows C:\Program Files\Epic Games\ Star Stable Online\client\SSOClient.exe. is that what doesn't let me use ReShade?

[@Nina-xz3qh]

It could be. I would recommend looking into downloading sso directly from the side and uninstalling the ea one

[@CloudyCreekEquestrian]

@@Nina-xz3qh Thanks. Though I don’t fully understand I will try my best. 🙂

[@CloudyCreekEquestrian]

@@Nina-xz3qh Thanks, I tried, but IDK why but there is a msg on my screen in black font that wont go. :(

[@flakyw6187]

What if when I press depthdisplay my screen is split but i can only see black and white?😂

[@asdfjklo234]

It means ReShade hasn't been able to pick up the so-called depth buffer. In the _Add-ons_ tab of ReShade, make sure you have _Copy depth buffer before clear operations_ checked. There are other things for troubleshooting, but that is the most common reason.

[@lavebramie]

The only thing that will show up for me in the 'add ons' section is generic depth ;_;

[@meredithderonne3588]

i followed this but when i go to the launcher the black bar doesn't show.. my PC meets the requirements for the install.

[@UserSJ71]

did you install it to the client?

[@She_is_Crazy]

It says that the most recent version will cause bans in multiplayer games..help I’m scared

[@winchale1217]

it won't in sso

[@Lenacometcastle]

When I try to add the display depth my screen turns half purple half white

[@2.fatducks]

have you found out how to fix it? I'm having the same issue.

[@Lenacometcastle]

@@2.fatducksNo, but their discord server has a good explanation. I haven’t tried it yet though

[@asdfjklo234]

Note that the _DisplayDepth_ effect is just a tool to check whether ReShade has picked up the depth information. You don't use it while playing. If the depth buffer works properly, you should get black-and-white contours of your screen on the right side. If not, make sure that in the _Add-ons_ tab of ReShade, make sure you have _Copy depth buffer before clear operations_ checked. There are other things for troubleshooting, but that is the most common reason. (Edit: another being that ReShade detects you're online and thus deactivates depth buffer to prevent cheating)

[@Lenacometcastle]

@@asdfjklo234 I know its not to use while playing. I have the copy depth buffer and thing on and I am still not getting the contours. It wont show me contour. It shows me a blank white screen and a blank purple screen.

[@asdfjklo234]

@@Lenacometcastle Come to think of it, ReShade deactivates the depth buffer when it detects online traffic, as a safety measure against cheaters, as there's a potential of misuse in some multiplayer scenarios. ReShade will display a message somewhere in the settings that depth buffer was deactivated.

[@Pxixiex]

Hey, um where is the version of re shade for the people with lower graphics cards?

[@ssopenguin]

I just have one thing to say the 4.4 ver is for lower end computers right?

[@JessNorthwood]

This is gone over in the video.

[@ssopenguin]

@@JessNorthwood So do I download it in the server because I dont have discord?
