My monitor runs at 144 Hz but games that should be at 60 FPS play too fast. How can I lock it?
There's probably a million different ways to limit FPS. I use GOverlay as a front-end for MangoHud, and limiting FPS in it is extremely simple. Simply change "FPS Limit", Save, and you're good to go. Use the selected hotkey (F1-F4) to enable/disable the limiter (and right shift + F12 to show/hide MangoHud itself)

How to increase contrast for games
Many people seem to use GOverlay as a GUI to configure it. I do it manually because when I tried GOverlay long ago it wasn't ready yet, but maybe it's good now, try it if you prefer a GUI.

Upgrade Help Thread
I was just clicking the icon in the application menu but it wouldn't launch. However I came across the issue in Github: https://github.com/benjamimgois-zz/goverlay/issues/203 , I used the .deb file as suggested and i'm able to use the program again.

Ubuntu 22.04 and GOverlay not running
Currently, the best workaround seems to be installing an older version. You can find version 0.6.1 here, (PPA linked by the GitHub page of GOverlay). Download the deb file for Impish, and install from file with apt.

Are games on Linux less sharp?
If you don't like configuring it from config files, there is a great GUI for configuring vkBasalt and Mangohud called GOverlay, available here. Sharpening is under the vkBasalt section's CAS tab.

Steam Deck vs. Switch OLED vs. Switch Regular
Would be interesting to see what the deck would look like with Reshade's fakeHDR or other options. Even the fakeHDR option makes a big difference in contrast and vibrancy. On Linux Reshade is called vkBasalt and can be configured with gOverlay. Don't know if that's available already via SteamOS.

How to increase contrast for games
Download all the shaders/textures from the ReShade and SweetFX repositories. Merge them, you should have a single Shaders folder with all shaders and a single Textures folder with all textures.

NoBloom Patch

- Where can I get the .fx files, like fakehdr.fx? I have a game install from someone else, but when I install reshade to another game, most fx files are missing. Can I just copy and paste? (Even if they're from an older version?)

u/fholger created a mod to enable AMD's FidelityFX Super Resolution in SteamVR games
I've tested the sharpening filters quite a lot in the past few weeks, the Filmic Anamorphic Sharpen to my eyes is too sharp, it seems to add some kind of whiteness around objects, CAS is fine, but it doesn't sharpen much with default settings, DELC seems to be the best with its default settings.
- Is there a way to find out where the reshade installer sources all the various shaders from? Can't use the installer under WINE so I need to get them manually
- Radeon Image Sharpening is really fantastic!
- Can we get a color filter feature in the Adrenaline driver similar to Nvidia? This really does give Nvidia users an advantage in some competitive games such as Warzone.
