Gotta try this with a few games, and tell. If it works, we might have a first solution to mankind's second greatest problem. This mod will most probably not work with any other game!!! Unfortunately, games deal with shaders in different ways!

You mean, bypassing shaders? well, there's no telling whether it would or not. Depends heavily on the game's engine and coding, the way it approaches rendering, whether it fancies using a hoard of different shaders, etc.! Among the games I tried, Revelations 2 is practically the only one that worked so well. Shaders are the bane of the slow machine's existence! There are numerous games I could use to disable shadows(/shaders?) because Shadows without a doubt are nearly 100% of source of my lag with most things if not all. Shaders are not just shadows (unfortunately!!!). To put it simply, shaders (pixel shaders, to be exact) tell the graphics card how to render stuff. They determine the final color of every pixel on the screen. In the old days shaders were only used for special effects, but since DirectX 10 (and in many cases even with DirectX 9), games do EVERYTHING through shaders! It could be a simple thing like drawing a solid color without any shadows or lighting or something far more complex. Lights, shadows, water surface, reflections, smoke, film grain, rain, different materials, and everything else is rendered via shaders, which are complex pieces of code that perform crazy mathematical and geometrical calculations! A game might use thousands of shaders! If only there was a way we could force a game to use the old DirectX rendering pipeline, all problems would be solved! Unfortunately, that is not possible!

The game is still crashing for me after i play from 5 to 10 minutes Does it instantly crash to desktop or does it freeze? If it's the freezing, it got much better when I played under 64-bit Windows 10 (I don't know whether it was the 64-bit OS or Windows 10 that made the difference!). It still happens very occasionally though. Sometimes an ALT+TAB and switching back fixes it, sometimes not. The freezing issue is not related to the mod. I barely managed to get through the "dungeon" section without the game freezing when I was playing on 32-bit Windows 8.

I don't know what might be causing that. I just finished the game and didn't run into any problems, except for two areas that froze so much. I couldn't play the extra story mode episodes though (The Struggle, and Little Miss) the game just crashed.

I don't know if you are still active now, but I need help with the mod Every time I try to play the game it closes itself instantly, and I pasted the DLL files in the root folder of the game, and I have a OS Windows 10 64-bit, any help to the problem? : /
