ReShade Mod
Add a mod which adds ReShade to the game. It needs DirectX 9 or higher but Wiggles uses DirectX 8. So, the usage of a tool which upgrades the DirectX version is needed. dgVooDoo upgrades the version to DirectX 10. (The old page seems to be dangerous, but I think it isn't)
So, the mod should add:
Redistribution rights of dgVoodoo 2: http://dege.freeweb.hu/dgVoodoo2/Readme.html
I asked for permission to use it for this mod: https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?f=59&t=76831
Permission granted: https://www.vogons.org/viewtopic.php?p=898594#p898594
Installation steps:
- install dgVoodoo: copy the 4 files of MS/x86 into diggles program directory (maybe without d3d9?!)
- install ReShade in this directory for DirectX 10
- profit!
good Shaders:
- fps displaying
- 6 shaders of the video
- FakeHDR.fx
- qUNIT_bloom.fx (Bloom 25%)
- ExeAdaption.fx
- Curves.fx
- Tonemap.fx
- NeoBloom.fx
- Lord Nemesis recommended: clarity, lumasharpen- HDR or Magic-HDR tonemap, curves, levels, colorfulness (first 4 most senceful)

After the release of the game on GOG and Steam the DirectX version was updated.
So a mod is unnecessary.
A description for the installation would be enough. (in wiki?!)
