Just a quick update.
Fixed shadows broken by last game update.
Download:
Fixed shaders.

How to install:
Place d3d9.dll, DX9Settings.ini and "ShaderOverride" folder to the game directory ("\Steam\steamapps\common\darkness ii" where "DarknessII.exe" located).
If you're using previous version of the fix - replace all files/folders with new (even DLL)!

Talk about quick!
ReplyDeleteAwesome work altogether. Your fixes really complete the 3D-gaming experience for me. Keep it up! :)
Quick?
DeleteDid you mean to post on darksiders 2?
If so make sure you have the right files.
DeleteAwesome work guys ;). The Darklings in 3d are way much cooler.
ReplyDeleteWas just helix, but he appreciates the feedback.
DeleteI loved playing this game in 3D with the fix!
ReplyDeleteGonna play it again in 3D vision surround :-)
Not too many people gave this gave this game a chance. If you have free time, would love to see screenshots on 3dvisionlive. If not, thats cool.
DeleteSorry for offtopic, but page dedicated to Darksiders I is not available. So, can you post fix for Darksiders I here, please?
ReplyDeleteI cant, was never added to ftp. I think it only fixes the skybox tbh.
Deleteerr.. not skybox. I confused games. Enemy Icons/hud
DeleteI dont think it works tbh, the person who did it didnt know that those shaders are different. I think I need to remove it from list anyways. I dont get to test a lot of what people send in.
The game is good without fix though, Im pretty sure its rated excellent. So I wouldnt worry about it.
i wanted high convergence but unfortunately the gun and demon arms split into 4 . is there any way I can fix this ?
ReplyDeleteNope
Deletehow the **** do I get it to work!?!?!?!?!?
ReplyDeleteLol, nice tone.
DeleteBy following directions? Install newest patch

If that doesnt work your on your own. I dont deal with people without manners.
DeleteShadows seem a bit odd to me. In the intro, the guy you follow...his shadow looks like a rectangle and it disappears frequently. Any way I can be sure I installed it correctly? Also, how do you change convergence? I have it unlocked in the nvidia 3D settings.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all your hard work!
I am hoping you are not guy from above but anywho...
DeleteIts one of those games that doesnt have much popularity so unless helix responds its hard to know.
Convergence locked is one of those things I hear from time to time from people in games that normally work for everyone else. I say to install a new different driver and it more often then not works. Otherwise hold convergence for up to 30 seconds. Sometimes it takes an extreme long amount of time.
If using retail version make sure its 1.1 updated. I know for a fact 1.0 doesnt work because he had to make a new patch going from 1.0->1.1 . My money on thats the issue since he cites he had to fix shadows for 1.1.
lol. No, I am not. I just installed The Darkness 2 today via steam, so it should be updated. Do I have to install the previous fix, as well? I only installed the ones on this page.
DeleteI'll try the trick you mentioned re: convergence. thanks.
It "should" be good to go.
DeleteDELETE you d3d9.dll, shaderoverride folder, dx9settings.ini
Make sure its not some wierd bug that happens regardless of fix installed.
Install these files

If that doesn't work I have only one last idea, can either download driver from april/earlier or follow this guide. http://helixmod.blogspot.com/2012/12/farcry-3-shadowslighting-fix-for-sli_24.html
Instead of farcry3 use darkness 2. Instead of aion use mass effect 2[Its a standard profile].
I kind of doubt it but it does seem a profile was added after the patch according to driver notes. If that doesnt work I am out of ideas besides saying just turn shadows off.
Btw, I just wanted to mention def. reinstall a fresh install of a new driver. Im not sure what it is but in last three days I had a complaint about Borderlands 2 shadows not working, Mirror's edge rendering 2D, etc. Nvidia screwed up drivers in a patch and a fresh install is probably needed. Cant say if thats your issue but its what I am telling everyone.
DeleteThanks for your help. TBH, it isn't bad outside of cutscenes. Convergence trick didn't work for me, but I'll have to do some more searching to see if I can find a fix.
ReplyDeleteThe driver version I have isn't that new, so I may try updating it and see what happens.
