X-Plane 11.50 Vulkan / OpenGL Realistic Reshade Installation + Settings | Tutorial
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 кві 2020
- How do I set up my X-Plane 11 to look as realistic as possible? With Reshade of course! In this X-Plane 11 Tutorial video, I take you through the Vulkan and OpenGL installation of Reshade, and go through all the settings I use, tweaking them and showing you what each setting affects, resulting in a hopefully realistic set up!
If Reshade does not work for you, you will need to create a shortcut to X-Plane 11. Right click the shortcut, go to properties and on the Target path, add '--allow_reshade=1' to it.

Excellent Video , I have been tempted to use a Reshade in XPlane 11 but never done it as scared to screw up all my Xplane install, i notice a lot of people use X Vision as well , I might give reshade a try , your video explains it very nicely , thanks !
Thank you very much. Hopefully the video does help - let me know if it does install and what settings you pick!
Looks fantastic, thanks you for the tutorial!
You are very welcome!
Awesome video man! Thanks for this! Subscribed!!!
You are very welcome, and thank you very much for subscribing!
Thanks ECGadget, keep up the great videos!
You are welcome - I am glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the demo and your time. I have to say though, I am not a fan of the final result. I'm watching this on a 4K top-end TV and I'm thinking that it may just be the difference between your monitor and someone else's setup. I would best describe the look I am seeing as being like wearing cheap, too-dark sunglasses. The ground seems to be dipping into shadow rather than shade. I think there's an improvement on the definition of objects, but it seems cancelled out by the lack of light, or vibrancy.
I think so - for example, the only annoyance I had was the blue was a little to much, which I have now fixed. Reshade has changed again, so I am going to have to try it again and see what I can get!
Although I haven't used Reshade I'd just like to thank you for an extremely well and in-depth tutorial on how to use it and especially showing how each setting has an effect on the Simm.
I may have to download it and give it a go at some piont soon.
I'm looking for a way to change dawn and dusk colours at the moment, any ideas?
You are very welcome! The only way I can think of is to go to the resources folder and the bitmaps, edit the skycolours file and that will change the colours. I know people on the X-Plane forums have done it, so there may be a download for some presets!
@@ECGadget Ahh yes, the Xplane forum.
I'll go have a look.
Once again Thanks.👍
Reshade is great. I sort of need help, even if my reshade is toggled off, some plugin interfaces are extremely distorted and totally unusable, any advice on how to fix it?
How can I uninstall the vulkan reshade?I use the steam version.
Thanks
SOLVED! For anyone struggling on how to start reshade within X-Plane . . make sure you insert a space after your target path eg. X-Plane.exe" --allow_reshade=1
Vulkan or OpenGL ????
@@thegamerpro0094 it works in Vulkan for me
@@theoriginalrad I am an OpenGL user. I don't know if something else needs to be done to make it work for me. is that they do not explain as it should, they literally do a very quick tutorial, and then they show all the configurations, and they do as if it were not me, a task for the school because it explains many things except the tutorial, in that they explain very little
wdym where do i gotta put it bro
Where do I put that?
The issue im having is that the menu will not open, it says I have to click Shift+F2 but it wont open
Nothing works for me: uninstalled, installed, vulcan enabled, ‘allow_reshade=1’ and crash to desktop... using a laptop with intel graphics and 1070. So when I use intel graphics it loads but slowly, if I disable it - X-Plane won’t start due to the error... Somebody, help!
Interesting, good information, Thank you.
You are welcome!
@@ECGadget hi,how can i choose the key to open reshade?
I have also tried everything you said and not a single key is opening the menu, including editing the shortcut
That means it has not installed correctly - try reinstalling it (possibly give the OpenGL variant a go. Vulkan may have disabled itself due to a crash)
Hi this is great though one problem, I can not get the settings to open. I have tried shift+ F2 and many other combinations including insert as you suggested and nothing brings up the setting menu. Have you or any other experienced this.Or do you know of a fix?
I am not sure about that then - that sounds to me as though reshade may not be installed. You could take a look at the ini in the reshade directory and would tell you what the key is!
I feel like the installation is done correctly (who knows with these black boxes) but I cannot call up a menu for the Shader ?
hmmm. Ill have to look again in the file(s) maybe there is a clue ... I dont see any ",,,setup" file either
Hi, what are your pc specs? And could you please make a video about how you set up your x plane 11? btw. is x plane 11.41 open GL?
Specs:
Intel i7-4770K - 4.2GHz Overclocked
4x 8GB Team Group Vulcan DDR3 RAM - 2133Mhz
EVGA RTX 2070 XC Ultra
In your description it says "If Reshade does not work for you, you will need to create a shortcut to X-Plane 11. Right click the shortcut, go to properties and on the Target path, add '--allow_reshade=1' to it.
" when I go into my X-Plane 11 properties the short cut tab isn't that, I created a shortcut for X-Plane 11 then went into properties but for some reason the short cut tab isn't there.
Click and drag it onto the desktop - it should automatically create a shortcut
At 6:13 you mentioned "The initial key is Insert", what exactly are you "initializing" or what program does the "Insert" key start, X-Plane 11 or something in the ReShade_Setup_4.8.2.exe App that I downloaded? I pressed the Insert key while the program was running and nothing happened.
The insert key switches reshade on and off. If you press shift+F2 and nothing happens, I believe reshade has not installed properly, which will explain why the INS key does nothing
How long does the initial shader build take?
Thanks for this and your other excellent videos. I have XP 11.5 beta 2 installed and running great. Earlier today I installed Reshade and set it up with the same settings you are using. Then shut down XP and relaunched. During the initial load screen, Reshade overlaid the screen with message saying that it would take a long time to build the shaders? I think,
It’s been running for three hours and shows activity in Task Manager. I stoped XP task and restarted and got a message that there were 13 Effects to go. Is this what you would expect from your experience? I am sure that nothing has crashed and I do have a good size scenery folder, so I am reticent to shut XP down again and will let it run on overnight.
UPDATE
I got fed up waiting, so I took a look at the reshade.ini file. There was the following
[GENERAL]
NoReloadOnInit=0
I changed the setting to
[GENERAL]
NoReloadOnInit=1
X-Plane 11.5 b fired up ok and Reshade was working as well. I will do some testing and get back if I see anything of interest.
It should have taken no more than 30s... not sure what happened to yours! Thank you for the kind words, I am glad you enjoy the videos!
reshade should pop up in the plugin admin option in the simulator or not? how do i do to make this window you show up once installed? i cannot manage to see it
Me to i Cant
HI, thx for the video. Would you mind to share your reshade.ini for easier usage of your good looking settings?
I would, but these settings no longer work as I want them to. I am currently not running Reshade until I can come up with a nicer setup
@@ECGadget Just noticed it as well. tried to apply your settings by hand, but the result is very blue-ish in the end and looks overcolorized in the wrong direction. Hopefully, one find a solution to beauty up x-plane as it was before 11.50. xvivid preset for xvision was my favourite, but it does not work as well, due to lack of shader customization. Blue haze is nearly not present right now.
Hey man, I have a question and would be extremely grateful if answered. So I followed every step you said to do, word for word. I also have never had reshade installed before. When I was finished installing it I loaded up X Plane and tried opening the menu by pressing shift f2 and nothing happens, I also tried the insert key like you said also and nothing happened. I downloaded it on Vulkan. Also my X-Plane is running off my D drive so would that have anything to with my issue. Also when going into my X-Plane folder I have the reshade-shaders folder but I do not have the ini folder, I do not know if it is supposed to be like that but at this point I am very confused. PLEASE HELP.
There should be a 'reshade.ini' file in your root X-Plane folder. If that is not there, that means something has gone somewhat wrong with the installation. Also, if you are using the latest X-Plane 11 beta, it does not work out of the box like this. You will need to create a shortcut to X-Plane 11, right click the shortcut, go to properties and on the Target path, add '--allow_reshade=1' to it. Also make sure the OpenGL version is not installed.
ECGadget thank you so much I will give it a shot
Can you post your reshade please?, I don't want to screw up the game or the settings
I did it exactly how you did but my game crashes to desktop when I start it. I think it might be the dll but do you know why that might be?
Try the instructions posted in the description and see if that fixes it?
When you refer to adding "--allow_reshade=1" in the Target path, where exactly should I put it? Everytime I try it somewhere in the target path it gives me an "invalid" kind of message.
It has to be after the .exe part, with a space and no quotes
@@ECGadget ive tried it about 20 different ways and it wont take it
I recently updated my x plane and re-shade doesn't work with Vulkan :(
Beta 6 does not work with Reshade currently, but that should be fixed soon enough!
Hello ECG! I am having a bit of trouble with the reshade. I followed everything that was in the tutorial but when I start up xplane. I can't seem to get it running. Any solutions to the problem?
I have put a tip in the description box - give that a go and see if it helps. With the beta, Reshade and X-Plane are not exactly meshing perfectly!
@@ECGadget doing that, even without quotes, still get an invalid error message
nothing hapens when i install it? ive tried shift+f2 and home?
If you are using the new beta, check the additional new instructions in the description box. Worth trying that anyway. Adding in post processing can always be a problematic process, especially with X-Plane as it updates a lot!
I've installed the reshade but I don't see the textures or shaders folder in my root folder?
I would advise a reinstall of reshade to start with - something may have glitched out, which is possible
ive installed as per your tutorial, and also created the screenshot with the text, however nothing opens when going into xplane 11? any suggestions?

Do you have Vulkan enabled? And also, reshade and X-Plane 11 are not two programs that always work, due to X-Plane updating
Hi ECGadget, i was wondering what are you PC specs?
At the time of recording that video:
CPU: Intel i7-4770K Ovrclk'd @ 4.2GHz
RAM: 4x8gb 2133 MHz DDR3 Team Vulkan (Ironic!)
GPU: EVGA RTX 2070 XC Ultra
Those are probbaly the important ones!
its kind of blurry for me pls help
I hit ‘performance mode’ and I can’t get out of it can you help me I already unchecked it.
The config panel may be hidden at the bottom, so you may want to check that!
Hi Captain !
Very nice and interessant video like always !
I can't open the Reshade windows. You say to press `Shift + F2` and on the Discord server somebody told me to press `Home`... but nothing appears.
Thank you and have good flights ✈️
Hello, thank you very much. First of all, it is important to know if it is loading. You will be able to check this by looking at the top of the screen when you start X-Plane. A Reshade loading bar should come up at the top at some point.
Other keys to try are the Insert key, possible PgUp and PgDn, maybe even Scoll Lock!
@@ECGadget Alright, thank you for your answer !
@@ECGadget I tried what you said, but when I start XP11 there isn't a loading box (when I had the 11.4 on OpenGL it worked), do you have some tips?
Hey, I have downloaded but my shift + f2 doesn’t work and I don’t see the homepage
Did you do this step: "If Reshade does not work for you, you will need to create a shortcut to X-Plane 11. Right click the shortcut, go to properties and on the Target path, add '--allow_reshade=1' to it."?
After I've done this, it worked for me. The key to open Reshade menu could also be "Pos 1" / "Home" key instead of Shift+F2 but it will show you on start up which key to press.
Hope that'll help! :)
@@stekotv6192 what do you mean by "create a shortcut"?
Should we select Vulkan if we even didn't enable Vulkan?
No, only if you have enabled Vulkan support
hello can u upload you preset ive done something wrong with mine.
I no longer have the presets I am afraid!
I have a massive problem, I installed it like in the video and the menu doesn't show up. I'm using Vulkan btw.
I removed it with Vulkan after a while - it gets a bit unstable with it not working sometimes
@@ECGadget I fixed it, you need to make shortcut of X-Plane 11 and add the line "--allow_reshade" after that it worked.
Im getting this error:
Encountered Vulkan Validation error!
general
error
Failed to open dynamic library
C:\ProgramData\ReShade\ReShade64.dll with error 1114
Anybody can help? Was workign fine some time back.
Try reinstalling reshade for vulkan and deleting the opengl reshade dlls. NOT the reshade dll itself
As Malik Brown said, it is vital that the OpenGL DLLs are uninstalled first, as I believe I have mentioned in the video. Otherwise it goes rather wobbly!
How do I uninstall the OpenGL version??? I need to switch to the Vulcan one
You should be able to just go into the X-Plane Directory and delete anything that is related to Reshade
@@ECGadget ok thanks!
Hey, thanks for the wonderful video. I downloaded the newest version of Reshade (4.6.1) while watching your video, but I don't see more than half of the presets you're using. Any suggestions?
Hello! You are welcome. If you are missing the different effects, just double check that you had them ticked when you were installing them. All you need to do is run the installer again, select XPlane - Vulkan - and then tick the boxes when it gives you a list!
Hey, also just downloaded 4.6.1. The effects packages is different in this install from 4.5.4. I believe you need to select the Legacy standard effects to get the same ones as the vid. Let me know if you were able to replicate these.
I may have to make a 4.6 Reshade tutorial!
You can download the missing files here: github.com/crosire/reshade-shaders
Just put them in the "reshade-shaders" folder inside X-Plane. Or alternatively use the old Reshade version: reshade.me/downloads/ReShade_Setup_4.5.4.exe
great, thank u from Saudi arabia
You are very welcome, from Great Britain!
How do I make x-plane look as realistic as possible. Easy, I throw it in the bin and start MSFS2020
How do you play MSFS2020? You don't dumbass because it's not out yet.
You say "press yes" and "press no" where are yes/no actually. I am currently fighting with an installation of the new version.
When you click on OpenGL - which I did not do because I am running it on Vulkan so did no want to rewrite my settings. But I recommend using Vulkan if you can.
@@ECGadget I installed it by removing the program from the registry and restarting the installation. However, going to OpenGL and back to Vulkan would have worked too?
I am not sure if swapping between the two would work. Reshade can be tricky on the installation at times, when it gets confused. Plus it changes so often this video could very well be out of date already!
Is there a direct link to that preset?
I am afraid not
Ok I'm new to your channel but I bet you're looking forward for flight simulator 2020
I most certainly am, and welcome to the channel!
my xplane doesnt detect reshade at all and i followed the video
Reshade does have a tendency of breaking often. Check the description and try that as well.
hi sir can u please share you reshade preset ^_^
Once I am happy with it, I will try to remember to share it. At the moment, I am not happy with the tones as such - and I want to get the depth of field working too!
I did not work Beta9 ----- "C:\X plane 11\X-Plane 11\X-Plane.exe" '--allow_reshade=1' ---- I tried, but it didn't.
try double dashes at the biginning. so --allow_reshadeshade=1
sorry --allow_reshade=1

How to install!?!
he litteraly showed it
@@Eyskapz yeah, bruh, I wrote you 7 month ago
I think personally it looked way better with the reshade off.
I think the blue ruined it overall, I use it without reshade currently!
and click "no" but there is no such no on your screen or mine, lol
Because I already had it installed on Vulkan, hence I could not click on the OpenGL radio button, which I said to click on for the yes/no to appear
@@ECGadget as far as I could see there is no way to uninstall ooengl at that screen, I manually removed the files from xp. But I could easily have missed something
It could be, OR they may have changed it again. Reshade changes so often, which is why I do not use it myself anymore
i got no reshade in beta6, help me :(
You will need to create a shortcut to X-Plane 11, right click the shortcut, go to properties and on the Target path, add '--allow_reshade=1' to it. Also make sure the OpenGL version is not installed - that should do it.
@@ECGadget ahh yes, i figured it out yesterday, anyway thanks for replying :)
You are welcome!
Doesn´t work with 11.50 B6 !!!
It is only a matter of time before it does - I have tested it up to B4 and that has been fine. I will update to B6 after I have finished my latest aircraft review, and then I will see if there is a fix needed or just time.
@@ECGadget I managed to solve, just do the procedure below.
Right-click on X-Plane.exe -> Create Shortcut.
Then Right-click on the created Shortcut -> Properties.
And then in Target: after "SomePath\X-Plane.exe" simply add --allow_reshade
@@issaraiva oh my gosh after HOURS of trying to figure out what I was doing wrong, your solution worked! Thank you!!
Brilliant!
@@issaraiva This didn't work. I had to use --allow_reshade=1
