Title: Warcraft 2 Reshade? Before/ After
Post by: USA-Feature on October 02, 2020, 09:36:26 PM

Recently on my return i have noticed you guys have managed to hook opengl and everything else to the game allowing programs like reshade etc to upgrade the visuals of the game. So i decided to try it out and after just a hour of tweaking some filters i came up with this. I think we a need a team of graphic guys from war2 to take this seriously and get it into combat to be toggled on or off so we can enjoy war2 with better graphics or original, similar to starcraft hd remaster.

I download both pictures and put them side by side and look almost identical...can barely notice any difference.  If that took over an hour I'd say prob not worth it....we're correct files uploaded?

Basically i achieved thicker better shadows which makes buildings more round and 3d, better color, also i like the way the mini map looks after, easy to see and read. Also the pixels really show in war2, whole point was to soften it up. I mean if someone really fined tuned these effects you could get a killer upgrade on warcraft 2, time is just not of the essence for me atm. Game feels and looks better with softer colors and more cartoon looking.

Try this in War2 Config:

Renderer = OpenGL
Display Mode = Stretched
Shader = xBRZ-freescale

No need for reshade, the config has the filters built in :D

On a 4k monitor it looks like this:

4:3 works too, you need to enable the checkbox "Maintain Aspect Ratio" in war2 config


Yeah it can't upscale the lobby
