I use reshade 4.9.1 (I'm under win7 tho), the 5.0.2 version wont work and crash seconds later.
The reshade 4.9.1 needs, in the game root folder :
- A folder for shaders library (you can add or remove some if needed), shaders are .fx file format
- A "reshade.dll" file to load the overlay
- Another dll file, either "d3d9.dll" for reshade 5.0 or "dinput8.dll" for 4.9.1
- A reshade.ini, for loading config
- A custom ini to know what shaders to use and how they are configured ; it can be loaded from anywhere, you can use/save you own, start from the Sidur's one, or pick any other from any reshade preset available.
I recommend to use the installer from reshade official site (use the 4.9.1 it's safer to assume it will work better with RoR), instal the reshade (pick target game folder, select directx 9 option), then when prompted what effects to download, pick the custom .ini from Sildur (or the custom reshade preset you want), wich should list all needed shaders ; the installer will read the file, and only download needed shaders.
You can then put the custom ini in your game folder or save/load it from anywhere else, just be sure in reshade panel to load the proper one each time.
Here is my (simplified) fenris-reshade.ini, with 4-5 effects, and you can add over that base if you want (copy-paste code into a txt file, before changing extension to .ini, then pick it as effect loading file in reshade configuration) :
