Guild Wars 2

Sorry if there has been a recent thread about this. I haven’t seen one, and a search turned up nothing. Has Sweet FX been fixed after it was broken by a recent update?

Perhaps it would be better if a mod moved this to tech the support forum. I figured enough players used sweet FX, that some player would know, and respond.

Not really a question for Tech Support since this is a 3rd party overlay that enhances post processing. You’d be better off posting to SweetFx’s site.

SweetFX never stopped working. You just have to put the d3d9.dll file inside the bin folder of Guild Wars 2 for it to work.

Thanks for your advice, Karizee. I googled the topic and found this link in an older forum post. http://sfx.thelazy.net/games/preset/1479/ There are entries after 2014-09, so that would seem to confirm this is still working in GW2. There are instructions near the bottom of the “Preset Description” section that tell you how to make it work.(the author admits that this method may not work for everyone, though)
