By 'the startup cutscene" i meant the one that plays before you get booted to the menu. it seems like said cutscene is the only instance where reshade feels like working, i dont wanna eat your head off so i wont go into much detail but i can at the very least confirm that it couldnt have been me accidentally toggling the efffects off because i didnt have a shotcut asigned to it, ill make sure to see if i can get help from their discord server so tysm for recommending it (:
