Game Update 2017- 08-01: by cicicleta
The_Long_Dark.zip

Small fix for Ultra shadows, broken by game update.


Major Update 2017-07-13 by cicicleta
Download fix: The_Long_Dark.rar

Redone from scratch after game updates.



Update 2016-05-01
Download the fix: 3Dfix-TheLongDark+(DX11)-2016-05-01.zip Only works on older version of game.

The entire fix has been redone from scratch after an engine update to Unity 5.3 completely broke the previous version of the fix along with my unity scripts due to major changes to the shader file format in Unity.
This version also updates the fix to use DirectX11 - if you have used a previous version of the fix, you will need to remove the -force-d3d9 launch option from Steam before installing this one.
Fixed
  • Shadows
  • Halos
  • Automatic crosshair depth added
  • Footprints
Installation
  1. If you have used a previous version of this fix, remove the launch option in Steam if you used it (right click -> properties -> set launch options) and remove the previous fix.
  2. Extract zip file to ...\Steam\SteamApps\common\TheLongDark\
  3. Press backslash after starting a new game, loading a new area or whenever the convergence resets.
Keys
  • Backslash: Load recommended convergence preset
Known Issues
  • Mouse cursor depth cannot be adjusted
Notes
  • This is an early access game and the fix is likely to be broken by updates, so be sure to check back regularly, and report any broken effects.
