Hi. I have a streamer friend who's never played Bloodlines, but likes Vampire stuff. Trying to set him up with the best experience, but I'm not super tech savvy, when it comes to modding and stuff. I already know about the unofficial patch, and will be having him select "Plus patch" and "Patch extras" as well. My question is, do those automatically implement any graphical improvements at all? I talked with Wesp briefly, and he says he thinks "SweetFX/Reshade" are good, but I wasn't clear if those would already be implemented, by selecting the above options, or if I have to implement them myself.

Also, to clarify, I'm not talking about any HUGE mods that make TONS of graphical / HD changes. I know the farther I push it, the more likely crashes and bugs will happen and such. Just looking for stuff that doesn't increase chances of issues TOO much, but still makes things look better.

Thanks in advance.

These shaders are not preset when you install the extras. You have to aktivate them yourself.
If you don't like the ones coming with the patch, I'm quite sure there is at least one available on Nexus. There might also be something on ModDB.
