Can anyone plz explain what to toggle in reshade for renodx to work without black screen?

[DreadfulDrummer]

here is how.

make engine.ini flie next to game settings in config folder and paste this first.

[SystemSettings]
r.AllowHDR=1
r.HDR.EnableHDROutput=1
r.HDR.Display.OutputDevice=3
r.HDR.Display.ColorGamut=2
r.HDR.UI.CompositeMode=1

#Enables real time sliders in RenoDX in newer versions of unreal engine
[/script/engine.renderersettings]
r.LUT.UpdateEveryFrame=1

set to read only and save.

after you need to find the extended UE5 rendodx mod and install that and reshade like normal. When game opens up go to home - settings - Advanced and make sure update path is set to off and it should work. Not sure how i've seen people getting regular version to work without all these workarounds but this allows you to actually use renodx and not have to copy and paste code to make the game use the baked in hdr that isn't great and for some reason not even in the game to turn on.


I really want to use hdr and heard renodx universal mod is what to use. I've used renodx just not the universal mod. I've tried toggling "r10....output" and it's not a black screen but menu UI is missing background and overlaps menus when clicking through it. What do i need to toggle please.

From my understanding, HDR, for this game only appears on high settings not sure about the other thing you mentioned

it's a universal mod that works for all games without hdr for ue5 games. I've seen people mentioning using it..I just need to know what random setting to turn on. There is like 15 of them

This might be a stupid question, but did the mod come with a guide on how to use it? Or have you tried googling how to use the mod after installation. Also, Reddit, you might find something there if you don’t get a reply here. That’s helpful.

There is a universal guide and it says to do what i've tried. I've seen people specifically online say "i've been playing mortal shell 2 with renodx and it's great". Nobody cares to explain exactly how though. It's generally very simple. Someone on here will know.

That info came from a developer who mistook ray tracing for HDR, he apologized for it in another thread.

Btw you don't need Renodx for HDR, you can enable it by creating an engine.ini in C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Local\MortalShell2\Saved\Config\Windows

Then add these lines, save and make the file read-only.

[SystemSettings]
r.AllowHDR=1
r.HDR.EnableHDROutput=1
r.HDR.Display.OutputDevice=5
r.HDR.Display.ColorGamut=2
r.HDR.UI.CompositeMode=1
r.HDR.UI.Level=1.5

Simply use RHI from the renodx discord server. It takes care of everything

not sure where to go.. i asked in the "lounge" but it's dead there. There is no guide for this game. Just a bunch of people using it without explaining how.

Mine does, I don't know why it's not working for you. Make sure you enable HDR in Windows before launching the game.

do you have to create an engine file? There is a game settings file but i assume it does the same thing.

edit: yes that worked. I assumed you meant the ini that was already there and mistakenly called it "engine". Seems to be working. Thank you.
