    Discontinued GShade is a heavily modified fork of ReShade that features numerous improvements as well as a selectively-unlocked depth buffer for specific online games.

  • This process earned NotNite quite a lot of accusations of piracy and stealing shaders/presets. After some back-and-forth bickering, Marot added a license to GShade files starting from the 4.1.1 version, moving the files to a self-hosted web URL behind a password. This decision was ridiculed a bit because many core shader files like KeepUI already had a completely free license built in due to their ReShade origins.
