reshade crashes!

[grimmlord22]

Hi everyone,
I wanted to download reshade.me for mhw and everytime i install it (version 4.70) the game crashes at startup. steps ive taken as follows:
1.ive renamed dxgi files to d3d11 and d3d12 nothing worked.
2. ive followed intructions from mod creators on install nothing worked.
3.my frame.net is updated/
4.ive ran it in fullscreen on all res from 1960/1080 up to 3840/2160
5. i have a ryzen 5 3600 with rtx 2070 gpu with high res texture pack and it runs perfect with no shaders as far as fps.
6. ive watched every video on how to use reshade for mhw on youtube but they are all 6 months old so i dont know if an update is keeping mine from working and also i do have iceborne dlc installed if it matters
thanx in advance!!

I found a solution to this problem two nights ago, well, at least I thought I did. I installed Reshade and it refused to work, crashing at the blue symbol on startup every time. I tried renaming dxgi.dll to d3d11.dll and d3d12.dll to no avail. But, I tried renaming dxgi.dll to d3d11.dll and then reinstalled Reshade and it magically worked.

Then, this morning I tried downloading the high res texture pack. Unfortunately, it caused a bug where it crashed to desktop on startup and had to reinstall the entire game and the high res texture pack along with it. It then worked, but I tried to reinstall Reshade and am getting the same problem I had before but the solution I used isn't solving anything.

Hopefully what I suggested works in your case.
