One click, EASY Reshade + Gshade shaders + Light preset 2.0 installation - Doesn't work anymore
Added 2023-03-30 08:06:45 +0000 UTC<<<PLEASE READ THIS>>>
UNFORTUNATELY, BECAUSE OF THE LATEST VERSION OF RESHADE PLUS SITUATION WITH GSHADE THIS SCRIPT DOESN'T WORK ANYMORE! I'LL BACK SOON WITH MORE DETAILS AND PROBABLY SOME UPDATE!
Once again, we made an installation script, but this time, it includes Reshade and Gshade shaders and textures, which makes the presets that are made for both work together. Reshade version used in this installation is 5.7.0.1711 and most presets that are made lately will work without any problems.
How this works > Download zip file attached in this post. When you open it you will see two files, one is for installation, second one is for uninstallation. The installation script is made to firstly back up all of your current reshade installations (if you have one), and after that, it installs itself to the BIN folder of the game (which you have to choose during installation). Don't worry if maybe your antivirus warns you about some activity during installation, it is just because, in my case, the script writes files in Program Files folder (c:\Program files(x86)\Origin Games\The Sims4\Game\Bin). So allow actions in antivirus if it warns you about anything.
As always, the overlay opens when you click "Home" on your keyboard, while the shortcut to effect toggle is the "Shift+1" combination.
Now, let's go to the uninstallation script. If you want, for any reason, to remove this installation, you just have to start the uninstall executable, again select the BIN folder where the game is installed and that's it. It will remove files that were copied during installation, and bring back your files, that were back upped during installation. Simple as that.
I have tried many Gshade and Reshade presets, and they were working nice, without glitches and bugs. Feel free to comment your experience with this installation, and also report me of any bugs if you find them.
!!! WARNING !!!
If this installation doesn't work, you can try right click on install.exe file and click on "run as administrator". This will enable script to install to window's system folders without any limitations.
All what you are doing with this script is all at your risk. I cannot guarantee that it will work on your computer like it is working on mine. There are many reasons that can give you a non working Reshade installations, and you must be aware of that.

That why first step Is to choose where your game is installed! But as for the preset When u go to reshade overlay (home button) you must click on the box where presets are changed. You must find my preset (it ends with .ini) and it will load 100%. You must find the ini file manually, because for some the game is installed in Origin/the sims4/gam/bin folder (those who installed it way back), or in just the sims4/game/bin folder...

2023-04-03 12:43:20 +0000 UTCThats amazing. I just have a problem, suddenly reshade isnt working anymore i tried everything but there was always a error message. Than i tried yoour One Click reshade and after i installed it the overlay said no presets found ...after few minutes i found the reason for it. It´s because reshade want to load it from C/Program Files (x86) /Origin /the sims4 but i dont have this Origin not just C:\Program Files (x86)\The Sims 4 . I don´t know why is it like this ....It drives me crazy because i need the Reshade lol

2023-03-30 21:38:31 +0000 UTCNo, not at all, this setup will automatically backup your old installation in folder, and if you ever want to turn back to your old version, in this zip you have set up for turning back!
