Enabling depth buffer for Reshade
- Some Reshade shaders, such as Marty McFly's Ambient Obscurance, need a working depth buffer to function.
- This method works only if ThirteenAG's fix is installed.
Install newest Reshade and select Direct3D9 for the rendering API

- When I started playing hidden and dangerous 2 with the widescreen fix vsync did not work, i happened to follow the guide for depth buffer for reshade as a shot in the dark and it fixed my problem. The original link and .dll for vysnc does not work the widescreen fix but with my fix there is no need for it if the user has the widescreen fix installed..
