A short guide on how to install ReShade, set-up your capture keys, and install presets.

2. Run Installer (may need to select “Run As Administrator”).
3. Select Game, select C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\The Sims 4\Game\Bin (in my case) and select The Sims 4 (.exe) application file in the version you play (32 or 64).
4. Select Direct3D 8/9, when prompted ReShade will ask if you’d like to install the current shaders, click yes. 
5. Download the 3.0.8 shaders.
6. Open C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\The Sims 4\Game\Bin\reshade-shaders\Shaders (in my case), delete all the shaders in the folder.
7. Open C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\The Sims 4\Game\Bin\reshade-shaders\Textures (in my case), delete all the textures in the folder.
8. Extract the 3.0.8 shaders you downloaded, add them to your shaders folder (Bin\reshade-shaders\Shaders) and textures folder (\Bin\reshade-shaders\Textures).
9. Open your game and complete the ReShade tutorial. You can open ReShade menu by pressing SHIFT+F2.
10. Turn of “edge-smoothing” in your game settings in order to use MXAO and DOF.
11. Place ReShade presets (.ini files) in your C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\The Sims 4\Game\Bin (in my case). Ensure you are using the ReShade version intended for the preset you’ve downloaded.
