RE: Modloader GitHub Repository

Perhaps there is an easier way of saving preferences better, but saving them in the same directory CAN put them into the same issue as saving it in \Program Files. I have heard of a simulated \Program Files save though, by saving it in, I believe \Local instead, but I'm not too sure. I also just imagine some people running it from their desktop or downloads folder, and I think it'd be ugly to have a preferences file on the desktop. We can surely try out a few things though. UAC might not actually be a problem, at least not in Windows 7+. Vista had some issues with it, and XP didn't have it at all. I just hope we wouldn't run into an "authentication failed" issue.

Other than that, I think the proposed method of using shaders can work well. It's similar to how I imagined it be done before. A few more things that can be done:

If the program happens to shut down unintentionally while the game is running, the shaders would likely be left modified. Don't think this can be easily avoided. We can, however, add a check to try to restore original shaders on startup, if they happen to be modified already.
