Ultimate Apocalypse is a mod for Dawn of War Soulstorm, which aims to create the most diverse possible unit and faction selection within the confines of the original DOW engine. We strive to create the most engaging and balanced Warhammer 40,000 game that we can, without sacrificing the fun factor. From hordes of Orks to the towering Titans, you can always find a new way to play UA. We invite all of you to join us on our Discord server to keep up with the development of the mod!
I've made some screenshots today, testing the latest version 1.86 in order to squish some potential overlooked bugs.
For the post-processing prettyness I am using the Reshade.me injector.
1.86 should be available this Tuesday the 16th if everything goes well on testing. But don't nail me to that date since delays are always possible!
Have a nice day!

This screenshot looks especially great! Could you give us your preset and also, will be there some tutorial for that? I have been using Enb since 2011 (SweetFx since 2013 for some games) in a few games, but I never figured out how to install this Reshade. Even GemFx was much easier and that had almost 300MB.
Actually the installation of reshade is utterly easy! All you need is to drop in a .dll file and a txt file containing the shading variables, that's it! I have put a link to my Reshade presets on my profile here on moddb! (*Shameless self advertising*) Moddb.com
That .zip file contains both so simply drop the files into your soulstorm root directory and you're done! You can adjust the settings within the ReShade text file if some things are too extreme/bright for you.
Thanks you very much! It's much better than some of those installers, mediators and so on. However, I need a mediator or something like that to edit the effects?
Nope just open the ReShade.fx text file with a texteditor and tweak the values by hand.
It may be a bit tedious though and require trial and error but at last it requires no additional mediators. Eventhough the newest ReShade HAS a mediator which i haven't figured yet how to use ^^.
Nice! That's much better than those programs and once again thank you.
I hate to be THAT guy, but how do you install the shader? I've copied ReShade64.dll, Sweet.fx, and the three files Cosmo uploaded. But as soon as I launch SS, I get that warning thing from the creator, and as soon as I click yes; nothing happens. When I check SS in the task manager its memory use is at barely 16,000 KB and its processor usage is at less than 1%.
You have too many files installed there ^^. Delete all the other reshade files and stuff and ONLY use the two files within my .zip file! Dropping that into your Soulstorm root folder should totally be enough!
I deleted all the other junk and copied just your files. I get the message from Corsair, but when I launch the game I still get the same amount of memory and processor usage.
When I open the d3d9 text file it reads:

I also use NTCore SS.exe so that MIGHT be a problem, but i'm not sure.
I just checked it an it seems that the current reshade stuff that I am using refuses to work completely when you use soulstorm over steam!
When you use ye classic disc installed soulstorm then it works like a charm.
Got any idea how to get any other reshade to work with steam SS?
