Hi,

I know this is an obvious question, but I went through the documentation paage and FAQ, and couldn't find an understandable description of what is the difference. I would really appreciate a clarification here.

I'm not a programmer or anything, I just enjoy playing games. :) Should I use the version with full addon support when I play single player games? What is the difference? Do the shaders work better in terms of visuals or performance?

Thanks! :)

If you want to use any ReShade add-ons and play a single player game, use the build with full add-on support. If not, use the normal build. If you haven't installed any add-ons, then you are not using any, so the normal build is the way to go. Either way does not affect how the ReShade post-processing effects look like.
The normal build is also allowed by several anti-cheat providers, whereas the build with add-on support is definetely not (add-ons can be anything, including cheats), hence why you should always use the normal build in multiplayer games.

Is there an improvement in visual quality or performance thanks to the shaders?
