Shadow resolution option doesn't work on Rebirth2 GOG version #15

Closed Drakensangs closed 4 months ago

The shadow resolution works perfectly fine on Rebirth 1 and 3 GOG versions, but for some reason it doesn't really do anything on Rebirth 2. Here's a screenshot of the game running with shadow res set to 8:

Tried disabling the mod's other functionalities but that didn't help at all.

Verbose log: nep.log

Can you upload the .exe file of your Rebirth 2? Game's shaders are stored inside main executables, and there might be some difference between Steam and GOG versions.

Here's the executable: NeptuniaReBirth2 exe.zip

Thanks. Things are weird. I checked the shaders, and everything that's being replaced by the mod is the same in both versions. And when running the game with this exe, shadow control works fine for me. Your nep.log also doesn't contain any errors... are you sure you didn't have any other mods running, like ReShade? rb2_gog_1

Don't have any mods or anything else running alongside the game. I even went ahead and reinstalled it just to be sure and the shadow resolution issue still persists.

I also downloaded the full GOG version just now and tried running it with the mod - again, everything works fine. What's also interesting is the GOG exe version - in the window title it says "REV: 85", whereas Steam version and the exe you sent are "REV: 84". Can you try and update your copy of the game?

Here's just the exe file, maybe replacing it alone will help: NeptuniaReBirth2_GOG_REV85.zip

Trying to use that executable just results in a crash at startup.

I'm curious about the folder structure of the version you downloaded. Went through gogdb.org and there are two versions of the game listed there. One from 2017 and one from 2019. The 2017 version is structured thusly: https://www.gogdb.org/manifest/519a37992bb4c8dd11b0d22e412b9062 While the 2019 version (the one that I have installed) is as follows: https://www.gogdb.org/manifest/e39c264b0f5aa0fc7257abdd8943999b
