I was wondering if anyone has access to the screenshots that show the differences between the different options in regards to the John P Texture Pack portion of the patch?It makes it hard to decide when you have no example to go on.

In VisibleOptions.ini
[Testing]
; Time in seconds between updates of the progress bar. Set it to 0 to go back to original (slow) behaviour, set it to -1
; to disable the progress bar completely. The default of 0.02 is slightly longer than a 60 Hz frame.

The texture pack is true to the DXIW original design and spirit.

LoadProgressInterval=-1Thanks - I had completely forgotten that that option was already implemented, only not exposed in the tweaker. :rolleyes: The VisibleOptions.ini file can be found through the
Deus Ex 2 Visible Upgrade program group in the start menu. Setting that value to -1 should indeed make ReShade work (when used with dgVoodoo).

True for the default settings, but screenshots showing the alternatives would be nice. Apparently there used to be some on John P's site. If anybody has them (or would care to make new ones) I'll upload them on Mod DB.

still no luck on Win10 x64 (Creator's Update). did a clean install. dgVoodoo (2.54) only works in passthru mode (when disabling DirectX emulation). brightness/contrast/color adjustments don't work either.
during reshade installation it complains about DX8 mode and propmts to download additional D3D8.dll - but game fails to load when using it. if I leave D3D8.dll from dgVoodoo package, reshade doesn't show up in game and doesn't seem to work.

I know what main pack does a like it quite a bit.What I am looking for is comparison screenshots of the various multiple choice options.Like Biomodded Eyes or non Biomodded Eyes,and the like.The reason I asked is because they're used to be screenshots on the internet but you can't find them anymore.Plus I remember that one choices for Male Alex D give him this horrendous look of big bulging eyes and a pig like nose and I don't want that version.In short I am gonna use the visual pack its the not being able to compare between the different options like for both male and female Alex the rest I am all set on.

I have Win 10 too, but not yet 'creator's update' - guess that could explain the difference.

This may be due to Win10 pseudo-fullscreen mode. If so, it should be fixable using the DLL hack from the latest Sneaky Upgrade.

ReShade complaining about DX8 is a result of dgVoodoo DX pass-through. Better concentrate on getting dgVoodoo working before even adding ReShade to the mix. Could you try removing all files from both, verify that the vanilla game will run, then add
only D3D8.dll from (
http://dege.freeweb.hu/dgVoodoo2/dgVoodoo2_53.zip) this version of dgVoodoo into the System folder? (This works for me - haven't tried 2.54 yet because of scary but probably harmless virus warnings...)

For the biomod eyes, Alex D outfits etc. your best bet is probably this: Make a quicksave just before the start of the initial conversation. Alt-tab to the tweaker, change e.g. the outfit, hit apply, alt-tab back, hit quick load. Start the conversation, hit Esc to skip ahead. Then alt-tab to the tweaker again and change something else. Make some screenshots while you're at it. :)

ReShade 3.0.7 can only work in D3D9-D3D11.
dgVoodoo 2.54 works perfectly for me with the lastest OS updates.
