      About RenoDX

      RenoDX, short for "Renovation Engine for DirectX Games", is a toolset to mod

      games. Currently it can replace shaders, inject buffers, add overlays,

      and write user settings to disks. Because RenoDX uses Reshade's add-on

      system, compatibility is expected to be pretty wide. Using Reshade

      simplies all the hook necessary to tap into DirectX without worrying

      about patching version-specific exe files. The source code is available

      on GitHub.
