No, there is nothing to do, but I see that your game is fine with dgVoodoo, so I don't understand your real problem with it. I wanna see a pic of your dgVoodoo program.

Interesting to see people expanding on my initial experiment. It is indeed very cool that dgVoodoo allows for Reshade to be used. :) It's too bad that some of the cooler effects mess up the HUD and menu. Even my tweaks caused issues like this. It limits the use of this mod to mostly just screenshots.

However, something similar to what Aaron set up can add a nice layer of graphical fidelity without causing too many side effects.

Yeah man! :) Thank god that you had found an awesome program like that and fortunately dgVoodoo made MM2 works with DirectX 11 which ReShade reads.

@Jimmy89: I see your dgVoodoo program is fine and no problem with it.

I have configured the settings and this is the best graphics til now.

To get these graphics exactly, you have to configure the settings and the values like I did.

First: You have to enable these features as shown in pic.
Image

Second: Click on every setting to see its values and change them like in the pic.

1. BLOOM - GemFX
Image

2. LENZFLARE - GemFX
Image

3. TONEMAP - SweetFX
Image

4. REINHARDLINEAR - SweetFX
Image

5. AMBIENT_LIGHT - GemFX
Image

6. BLOOM - SweetFX
Image

7. HDR - SweetFX
Image

8. TECHNICOLOR - CustomFX
Image

9. REINHARD - CustomFX
Image


Now you are done and I think there nothing better than these graphics.

Sorry for double post.

There is additional setting called "COLORMOOD - CustomFX" (Pointed with Red).

And this is the configuration.
Image

So the results were like this.

And this.
