[SOLVED] Can't get SWEET FX to work with this game. Any ideas?

I'm using windows 7 64bit... I put all the files of sweetfx 1.5 (tried 1.4 also) in the win 32 binaries , like I usually do with all my other games, but it just won't work. I know sweetFX can work with this game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fErI4aGdX4Y. Fraps is not running so that can't be the problem and the sweetfx settings are all set to 1 not 0 yet SweetFX does not activate.

Ok so.....I put sweet FX, in Vanishing of Ethan Carter/ binaries/win64 folder, replaced the original dll's with bolotaurus , said "yes" to merge folder. Still not working.... Should I have said "no" to merge folder?

It works 100% with Boulbatours 64Bit SweetFX, you need to replace the 64bit DLL's with the standard SweetFX D3D9.dll and DXGI.dll's and it works.

Yeah Mine has been working for a while lol forgot to come back here on the forum to tell you guys. It's ok, I got everything working: SweetFX, Fraps, Flawless Widescreen all running at the same time, no problem. And thanks for all the help guys, wouldn't have figured it out without you.

i need your help!

i cant get sweetfx to work using the 64bit dlls for the life of me! I am using boulbatours sweetfx. I am trying to get this working on Far Cry 4 at the moment. But any game thats 64bit just wont work with sweetfx! Am i supposed to take the 64bit dlls and put them in the bin folder overwriting the d3d9.dll and dxgi.dll? or is it the other way around?
