Unreal Engine

[dusty girder]

does the game have native hdr, or are you doing ini hdr, upgrading sdr -> hdr?

[ebon dome]

The latter - it worked out of the box before

[dusty girder]

with ue-extended? on what version?

you're doing ini hdr right

so if you're doing ini hdr

disable Upgrade Path and restart the game

always turn off "Upgrade Path" (and restart the game) if you're using extended with ini tweaks or the game's native hdr

if you're not doing ini tweaks or native hdr, that means the lutbuilders arnt added; and you need to enable dump lutbuilders and share them

nothing changed that would break the UI, so if the game is busted its a setting issue

[dusty girder]

old versions didnt have the sdr path, so whats happening now is you're probably running the sdr path on ini hdr or native hdr (or the opposite)

[hybrid ingot]

UE-Extended lutbuilders for Finnish Cottage Simulator

[dusty girder]

will add, just woke up giv me a bit

Also need to add these //bookmark

[ebon dome]

that worked! cheers! I think I was an older version where that was default to off or not there. I didn't even notice it when I was looking through options.

[dusty girder]

bought the game to test it, really pretty

[dusty girder]

old versions didnt have it

does this game only have xess

but the whole streamline plugin

[ebon dome]

you have to use ultra+ to enable it atm

[dusty girder]

[ebon dome]

their statement on dlss and fg was implying they had to ask Nvidia if they could use it lol

but that it was coming soon

[slim fractal]

Hello !

[slim fractal]

Why it says snapshot invalide on github ?

[ebon dome]

ah yeah, now that's the good stuff

[dusty girder]

depending on background the pause menu exploads, I think I know whats ausing this

I'll look into fixing it later

[ebon dome]

yeah, I noticed that in the opening prologue, but it hasn't happened beyond that

[dusty girder]

I might look into it in the future

its the blending

doesnt matter if reno is installed or not

just ini tweaks causes it to grief

the new ue5 games might need a new ini tweak

we'll look inot that later

[ebon dome]

no worries - thanks for all your work

[dusty girder]

alone in the dark 2024 is cursed

[ebon dome]

it's one of my favorite games from that year but they clearly spent their budget on the actors and not the game lol

[dusty girder]

I played it

its just doing something non-standard

[tepid ridge]

Question: is extended compatible with all games that already are with generic?

[dusty girder]

not yet

but I can always add a game

[tepid ridge]

Oh ok, just wanted to know if I should default to use extended from now on. I´m guessing that will be the move in the future

[tepid ridge]

My only request rn would be DQ VII Reimagined. But I think that´s a tricky one

[dusty girder]

got Alone in the Dark (ingame native hdr on) working

sdr -- filmic extended

[dusty girder]

that game has its own custom pipeline, nothing to do with these generic ue mods

[tepid ridge]

Gotcha

[slim fractal]

Does the fire looks all right to you ?

[dusty girder]

stellar blade is a weird one

you gotta fuck around with colorgrading

doesnt made if its ue-generic or ue-extended

that game just isnt having it

thing is those fires arnt exactly common, only in the first area I think

so you can just play the game

[rustic lichen]

I did some custom color grading on top of Stellar Blade to get it to look right in my eyes. The colors in that game are just odd

[fresh wind]

They are, still easier to color grade than nioh 3😭

[tame raft]

you can enable DLSS in Crisol with this mod: https://www.nexusmods.com/crisoltheaterofidols/mods/4

then you can use DLSS Swapper to add DLSS 4.5

[dusty girder]

yea lazzor sent me

u+

the game looks really cool

got a friend to buy it

[tame raft]

I mean I got the game too after this image lol (also saw some gameplay clips)

[tame raft]

u+ vs DLSS enabler

[dusty girder]

u+ also does other stuff

I'm a fan of u+, like it makes code vein 2 500x better for example

Added Nightingale and Finnish Cottage Simulator lutbuilders to UE-Extended
-> Alone in the Dark native HDR is also added, for that game enable native hdr and enjoy with ue-extended installed

Github should build an addon with the new lutbuilders about an hour after I posted this

Latest UE-Extened can be found in pins

btw if you guys share lutbuilders for ue-extended, please include both the existing and new lutbuilders (if existing lutbuilders end up getting dumped)

the existing lutbuilders help me fix the new lutbuilders faster

existing lutbuilders dump as lutbuilder_0x12345678
-> this means the lutbuilder is already in the mod

new lutbuilders dump as lutbuilder_new_0x12345678
-> this means they're not in the mod, and I need to fix them up!

[sturdy lagoon]

that looks awful imma be real

[dusty girder]

yea stellar blade is stellar grief

just like the old UE Generic, it needs a colorgrading setup

[sturdy lagoon]

dedicated mod needed

[dusty girder]

if its just colorgrading sliders like ue-generic

I can just have the mod default to them if it sees stellar blade

[sturdy lagoon]

are the textures just actually all pink

[dusty girder]

I just have no interest in tuning

[dusty girder]

yea

on the bright side, iirc fire like that is only in the tutorial area

[dusty girder]

if I map the hue and chroma from the vanilla (sdr filmic) color

it looks correct

but it basically ends up being "itm" kind of

[sturdy lagoon]

rip

[dusty girder]

I think you can ind of do that with per-ch peak 1

sdr -- defaults

[dusty girder]

I think this is an old version

[sturdy lagoon]

certainly better

[dusty girder]

thats just how the mod is stock, its not perfect, needs tuning

I think he's on an old version with grief code or doing ini tweaks which is also grief

these are meme settings

sdr -- per ch peak 1, 55 highlight saturation

highlight saturation can help with griefed textures

even like 3 ticks

per ch peak controls where we get the hue and chroma from

the function is reinhardpiecewise(hdr_color, PEAK, 0.18f)

defaults to 5.f = 500 nits

and 500 nit per-ch hdr has just the right ammount of blowout and color that its good to make for hue and chroma

if you set it to 1, you're kind of getting "100 nit sdr" -- but if you really want the sdr look with hgihlights, it works

also photomode clamps the game to bt709; idk why; probably runs another shader with a max(0

[dusty girder]

@slim fractal you're on an old version, get the latest version from the pins, and use the SDR path (not ini tweaks)

stellar blade does too much shit when its in native hdr or ini tweaks, that its just not worth using; the game runs well enough so you dont need MFG

[charred solstice]

there are different luts for extended and generic? or they are the same lut, but different sample points?

[thick belfry]

Per channel peak one, hue shift 100, blowout 65

That will match SDR

[dusty girder]

what about highlight saturation

makes sense why peak 1 matches sdr

thats the hue and chroma from a 100 nit color

well 100 nit displaymapped, not clipped

[dusty girder]

@thick belfry share pics; also try out psycho

[thick belfry]

Same with psycho

I'm talking about sb only here BTW

[dusty girder]

yea ik

that game is special

I've tested dozens of games since starting ue-extended, and pretty mch all of them "just work" with the stock settings

play around a bit more, and I'll have SB default to those settings on launch

or whatever better settings you find

[eager lynx]

Hey Marat, have you got any ideas as to why Opti (loading reshade for reno and) using XeFG will cause flickers ?
It's not just the UE one but it's easily the most large spectrum one to test in various games

As you can see, toggling FG gets rid of the flicker but this doesn't happen without reno so I'm not sure how to help Nitec figure it out if I even can

[dusty girder]

are you using ini tweaks/games native hdr

or using the sdr path with resource upgrades

if you're using the sdr path it will flicker

just like ue-generic

the mod defaults to the sdr path

if you want to try ini tweaks, disable processing path in the ue-extended settings (and restart the game) and add the paramaters in the pins to engine.ini (you might have to make it read only)

[eager lynx]

It used to not flicker though

Can't tell what nor when it changed

[dusty girder]

XeFG always flickered taking the sdr path

[eager lynx]

But it seems to be a somewhat recent thing

[dusty girder]

you need to take the ini path/native hdr path

just like transformer fg and nvidia, intel might've changed something

all I know is:
-> sdr path = DLSS FG/MFG (transformer models) flickers
-> sdr path = XeSSFG flickers

-> hdr path = all good

try the hdr path out

[eager lynx]

I've yet to check ue extended but I'll give this all a try 🤞thx

[dusty girder]

set Upgrade Path to Off in RenoDX UE Extended

Add this to the game's Engine.ini

[SystemSettings]
r.AllowHDR=1
r.HDR.EnableHDROutput=1
r.HDR.Display.OutputDevice=3
r.HDR.Display.ColorGamut=2
r.HDR.UI.CompositeMode=1

[/Script/Engine.RendererSettings]
r.LUT.UpdateEveryFrame=1

• Note, sometimes a game deletes Engine.ini on every launch; so set it to read-only

[dusty girder]

oh if its ue-generic yea

thats a rip

I'm using XeSS FG with opti

life gud

[slim fractal]

Ok thanks @dusty girder,@thick belfry I wanted to get the latest version on github but it said "snapshot invalide" so I didn't know what to do and I forgot I could get it here 😅

[dusty girder]

what do you mean?

the only link for ue-extended is in the pins

[slim fractal]

Oh I thought you meant the latest snapshot on github

[dusty girder]

different mod

[slim fractal]

I didn't know there were two versions of the UE mod, now I know 😅

[thick belfry]

This one is supposed to replace the other one, but it's still WIP

[slim fractal]

I still have to follow the notes from the one of the github page ?

[eager lynx]

What kind of abomination is this ? lol It looks like selecting the wrong HDR mode in SK Oversaturated, overcontrast, overbright, it's wrong on everything

Testing Chorus

It's unusable doing this

lol

[thick belfry]

I don't think so
The stuff like swap chain upgrades should be hard coded
But not everything is ported yet

[slim fractal]

Is there a list to know wich games are ported yet ?

[dusty girder]

did you set path to off

[eager lynx]

Yes

[dusty girder]

ini tweaks should be the same as

native hdr on in a game

is it an old game?

[eager lynx]

Kinda

[dusty girder]

like old dx11 ue4?

if so thats not supported yet

[eager lynx]

No, dx12 (has RT) but UE4

[dusty girder]

did it delete engine.ini

some games delete it on launch

[eager lynx]

Nope 🙂

[dusty girder]

engine.ini should look like if you enabled native hdr

not broken

[eager lynx]

I only have like two games doing this

[dusty girder]

its the same thing

[eager lynx]

Then native HDR is broken

[thick belfry]

Not to my knowledge

[dusty girder]

since 1 lutbuilder can be 50 games

its all trial and error

what game?

also do contrast sliders and stuff work?

if they dont that means the game isnt added or something has gone wrong

the ini tweaks is for power users, a bonus feature for people who want to tweak stuff and potentially fix DLSS FG or XeSS FG (or game stability in general)

[dusty girder]

and then it should get fixed by the plugin, if it looks fucked that means the game isnt supported yet

what game is it?

[eager lynx]

Chorus

[dusty girder]

does the ui slider work?

oh I see the issue

chorus needs a game specific fix

also did the game update?

The fix @digital raptor added is shader model 5_0, which is dx11 only

https://github.com/marat569/renodx/blob/7ddee1785df361d8c05670cca1862e13c50d2b33/src/games/unrealengine/games/chorus/overlay_0x5011999C.ps_5_0.hlsl#L4

[eager lynx]

Nope, doesn't work, but generic totally does

[dusty girder]

get me the lutbuilders

enable dump lutbuilders, enable path back on (it will look fucked up), restart game

and send me the lutbuilders

[eager lynx]

So nothing will change lol

[dusty girder]

?

[eager lynx]

It's already fucked up I mean

[dusty girder]

oh sure

[eager lynx]

Like headhache inducing bad

[dusty girder]

yea ik, its broken

but yea send me the shaders I might be able to get it going

the lutbuilders

I can also buy it for 5$

@eager lynx is it this? https://store.steampowered.com/app/1153640/Chorus/

oh theres a demo, hopefully thats good enough

[eager lynx]

Yes

[eager lynx]

Do I need to undo the engine ini change ?

[dusty girder]

no

keep the engine ini tweaks

[eager lynx]

Ok

Unironically looked less fucked but where are the shaders dumped ?

Damn Explorer not updating the folder contents

https://tenor.com/view/fuck-microsoft-fuck-microsoft-john-malkovich-malkovich-gif-24980256

[dusty girder]

thanks

give me a few min

[eager lynx]

Sorry it took a while, I'm rusty 😅

[dusty girder]

all good

whats the ue version

[eager lynx]

Take your time

[dusty girder]

4.27 dx 11?

also does the ui slider work?

[eager lynx]

4.26.1

[dusty girder]

if it doesnt ima need to find composite

[eager lynx]

In generic ue yes

[dusty girder]

in extended

[eager lynx]

Nope

Well maybe with the upgrade path enabled it does, hold on

[dusty girder]

enabled it wil

idc about that

[eager lynx]

Ok then no

Imma check The Ascent and Nobody Wants to Die then, both of which need XeFG to not flicker and benefit tons from HDR

[dusty girder]

hopefully the demo has the same shaders

ok I see the issue

the output device param si griefed

delete the ini tweaks

unfortuinate

[eager lynx]

The Ascent suffers from the same issues but there's no dump slider available (same engine version) and even setting DumpLUTShaders=1 in ini won't make it dump anything

[eager lynx]

As in unfixable ?

[dusty girder]

maybe

if ue4ss doesnt work

its cooked

these old ue versions are kinda griefed

you can us the sdr path

but thats well grief

[eager lynx]

No idea, no U+ for Chorus and I don't use it otherwise

But in The Ascent ue4ss does 🙂

[eager lynx]

Still doesn't make sense to me this shit flickers tho

Like what's the reason if the FG is fed HDR, it should just interpolate HDR

[dusty girder]

idk, nviida broke it

if ue4ss worked

this would've been solved

tl;dr chrous hdr path is a rip

you can use the sdr path but

flicker fg

[eager lynx]

Dammit, thanks tho

Or I'll just cope with FSR FG

Nvidia and Intel skill issues

[dusty girder]

use ue-extended, it looks a bit nicer

here is a build ith

chorus fixed up

but only sdr path

[eager lynx]

Thank you

[dusty girder]

I tried like 3 ue4ss versions

1 crashed, 2 did nothing

ue extended sdr path will work the same as ue-generic sdr path

needs upgrades and stuff

but

tonemaps differently

should look better

[eager lynx]

Oh ffs even FSR FG flickers

FML

[dusty girder]

yea idk any fg that works with the sdr path

that goes for any game, not just unreal

well OLD dlss fg works

[hybrid ingot]

I tried changing tonemappers in Finnish Cottage Simulator which you included, there was no change in image even after changing scene, should it affect SDR upgrade at all?

[dusty girder]

pre-transformer

so 3.

[dusty girder]

if its ue5 sliders arnt real time

[eager lynx]

Yeah but that's a rip even if Opti had dlssg output as I'm on Ampere

[dusty girder]

add this to engine.ini

[/Script/Engine.RendererSettings]
r.LUT.UpdateEveryFrame=1

or load a save

[hybrid ingot]

yeah, I tried forcing scene change, no dice, I even have that command line in Engine.ini you suggested

[hybrid ingot]

yeah that one

[dusty girder]

send me reshade.log

and what version are you using

[dusty girder]

this is the latest build

if you set dechroma to 100 and load a save, does the game turn black and white?

[eager lynx]

Hopefully The Ascent hdr path is fixable

[hybrid ingot]

yeah all those work fine, tried Flare 100 and it went black and white, just tonemapper

[dusty girder]

if its ue5 the hdr path almost always works

[eager lynx]

as ue4ss works 🙂

[dusty girder]

ok taht means everything is good

[eager lynx]

No it's 4.26.1

[dusty girder]

what do you mean by tonemapper

filmic sdr vs. filmic hdr

or N2, Psycho, etc? (the tests)

[hybrid ingot]

N2, Psycho etc had no change, that is the thing I was asking for clarification, should it?

[dusty girder]

the difference betweent hose

arnt like day and night

[hybrid ingot]

got it

[dusty girder]

and will probably only be visible in highlights

[hybrid ingot]

right, was a bit confused because of that, thanks

[dusty girder]

if you look at blues

psycho should be a bit more vivid

like bright blues

but your farm house simulator is hdr and life good?

never thought I'd be here fixing and providing support for ... finish farm house sim

[hybrid ingot]

cottage sim, excuse you

yeah it looks better than generic for sure

it does have in-game HDR option as well but it looks very cooked without proper in-game sliders, I could try upgrading it

you just know it's gonna be good when the only slider enabled in HDR is labeled "Gamma"

[eager lynx]

Good news for Nobody Wants to Die : it just works ™

engine ini tweaks + hdr path with that last build you sent me 🙂

HUDfix set to 1, no XeFG flicker

[dusty girder]

dont touch gamma

[dusty girder]

yea ue5 will almost always work

there might be the odd minor issue

like there are artifacts in Crisol Theater of Idols when you pause (sometimes)

but since its only when you pause, and the gameplay is fine; nobody cares

[dusty girder]

does the ui slider work?

hdr path requires not only lutbuilders, but something called a composite shader; that I dig for myself

[eager lynx]

UI Slider works yeah

[dusty girder]

nice, composite shaderis there

all the other sliders work too?

[eager lynx]

Dunno about all but most I've touched do 🙂

I'm back on The Ascent trying to dump but it just won't

[dusty girder]

dump lutbuilders dont work if path is off

[eager lynx]

Oh, bruh, stupid me

Sorry

[dusty girder]

when path is off, renodx acts as only a shader replacer for maximum compatability

nah thats mb, I need to document stuff more

[eager lynx]

I mean you just instructed me on how to do it like 10 minutes ago so it's mb really

The Ascent

[dusty girder]

I thinkthat 0x744666 can be ignored

let me double check

yea

thats an "aces only" lutbuilder that gets dumped, but doesnt actually do anything

hdr should be working for you no?

[eager lynx]

With the engine ini tweaks ? Not really it's f'd up

[dusty girder]

what do you mean

is it ue4?

[eager lynx]

Yeah, same as Chorus

4.26.1

[dusty girder]

yea ue4 ini tweaks are griefed

without ue4ss

[eager lynx]

But ue4ss works in it

[dusty girder]

dx12?

ok put this in the root folder

sec

delete ini tweaks

[eager lynx]

Yeah it's on dx12, RT as well and Ultra+ has a mod so ue4ss defo works 🙂

[eager lynx]

root ?

[dusty girder]

this is ue4ss with my ue4ss script that forces the

proper cvars

[eager lynx]

Or win64 ?

[dusty girder]

win64

[eager lynx]

But it already has Ultra+'s ue4ss

[dusty girder]

ok go in the mods folder

get hdr-dx12

put it in the current mods folder from U+'s ue4ss

and in mods.txt enable it

you just type modname : 1

[eager lynx]

Ok done, booting

Hmm, washed out look

UI slider no workie

[dusty girder]

so do the contrast and stuff sliders work

get in game

[eager lynx]

yep

[dusty girder]

hdr10 right

I have the ascent, time to download it

[eager lynx]

Indeed

[dusty girder]

its 6am but I'm dealihg with tis

wait that game has custom stuff

[eager lynx]

Oh, get some sleep buddy

[dusty girder]

does luma also flicker?

I guess if it upgrades it might

[eager lynx]

I don't use Luma in this one, I want RT

so dx12 only

And I need FG so same

[dusty girder]

I seen ascent clips

with luma

did he force dx11?

and it defaults to 12?

[eager lynx]

Idk but since Luma has no dx12 support, must have been dx11

[dusty girder]

we're testing the ascent rn right

[eager lynx]

Yes

[dusty girder]

just so I know what we're doing

ok

setting ini tweaks as a power user setting was the right call

the current prio for ue-extended is

-> use the games native hdr if avaliable
-> sdr path
-> ini hdr for power users

ue5 works for the most part

its ue4 thats a meme

but I left that alone since most people dont need the ini path in ue4

[pastel sand]

Awesome! What you up to? I love that game.

Well, nvm, mostly what you stated the lines above I guess haha. 😅

[eager lynx]

Maybe combining the ue4ss hdr with engine ini tweaks could work ? I'll try

Nope, opposite end of fucked : was washed out, now is oversaturated overbright and all

[dusty girder]

bro I'm a potato

I've been here like

"why is everything fucked, what I do wrong"

forgot to set path to off in my own mod

I mean is this gud

[eager lynx]

sleep depraved Marat be like

Idk if it's correct but it looks good to me 🙂

Idr whether this is rendered or fmv tho

[eager lynx]

That's without U+ right ?

[dusty girder]

just ue4ss

[eager lynx]

Maybe U+ does prevent it from working here...
I do have path 0 and modname : 1

[dusty girder]

with my hdr10 force

did you actually put

modname

not the name of the mod

its

[eager lynx]

Uh

again

[dusty girder]

hdr-dx12 : 1

[eager lynx]

lol

[dusty girder]

the game needs fixs anyway

so wait for them

[eager lynx]

Ok but yeah now it works

Colors look a tad weird compared to what I'm used to

But it does work

[dusty girder]

theres this weirdge bug

with the top part glitching out

nvm

I enabled RT and it fixed itself

[eager lynx]

Odd

🙂

[eager lynx]

Yeah the colors are really off compared to vanilla or generic ue

But not for you

Even weirder

[dusty girder]

yea I'll give you a good mod in a minute

wait up

[eager lynx]

Although XeFG does flicker regardless, hopefully your build will fix that too 🙂

Will you implement BT 1886 for gamma correction ?

It's my fav tbh

[dusty girder]

didnt plan on it

but increasing contrast is the same thing

[eager lynx]

Really ?!

Never looked the same to me in other addons

[dusty girder]

yea

the only difference between

2.2 and 1886 is

pow2.2 vs pow 2.4

and the only difference between that is a bit of contrast

[eager lynx]

Ok but contrast slider has a stronger impact

Undesirably so imo

[dusty girder]

the circle around the character overshoots peak, its sadly an issue in some games with ini tweaks; but outside of that looks more or less good

[eager lynx]

It's affected by UI slider which I always lower anyway so all good for that 🙂

[dusty girder]

here you go

[eager lynx]

I wish we could disable that fucker of a circle tho lol

[dusty girder]

so sometimes those are like seperate pipelines

[eager lynx]

Useless when doing singleplayer

[dusty girder]

its weird stuff

[eager lynx]

Thanks !

[dusty girder]

let me know if that works

[eager lynx]

In a minute 🙂

[dusty girder]

with ue4ss from u+ and the hdr10 mod set to true

man ue4 ini tweaks is straight ass

ue5 "just works"

[eager lynx]

fullscreen splash is fucked up (oversaturated and all) but otherwise it's fine with UI tint again

In game looks weird tho

Like before

[dusty girder]

is path set to off?

[eager lynx]

Yes

[dusty girder]

are you sure the mod is running

do me a favor

[eager lynx]

Do I need to not use any of the upgrades ?

[dusty girder]

delete u+

no

no ini tweaks right

did you delete all the ini tweaks

[eager lynx]

Besides disabling dilated motion vectors for OptiFG, no

Yes deleted them

[dusty girder]

just put this in the win64 folder

its ue4ss with the ini tweaks enabled

[dusty girder]

that wont do anything bad

[eager lynx]

Without U+ but your ue4ss looks identical

[dusty girder]

send me a pic

with lilium's hdr analsys

is this the steam version?

[eager lynx]

I don't have Lilium's, never used it tbh

[dusty girder]

just send a pic without it

[eager lynx]

Yes, based on Steam version

[dusty girder]

also go to settings

and make sure dx12 is selected

and rt on

borderless

only thing I can think thats washing it out is its not in dx12/hdr10

[eager lynx]

It's for sure dx12 and with RT

And HDR10

Otherwise couldn't have XeFG working

[dusty girder]

am I blind? that looks good

[eager lynx]

Looks good yes

But weirdly very different from generic

[dusty girder]

oh

yea

this does tonemapping differently

this whole time I thought the issue was an encoding issue

[eager lynx]

Sorry

[dusty girder]

the mod is working as intended

[eager lynx]

Ah, glad it is 🙂 Wonder how to match generic's look tho

[dusty girder]

except the circle

well vanilla is what the game's sdr looks like

generic isnt exactly a target

generic is made to be easy to contribute to

if you want under beta tonemappers, enable psycho

and reduce hueshift/blowout

to 0/0

and then bring them up little by little

tonemap test, default is n2 max ch

set it to psycho

anyway its bedge time,

[eager lynx]

Oh yeah vanilla looks tons better to me 🙂 Although it loses highlights so errr

Thanks a lot and gn8 !

[pastel sand]

What was wrong with Generic? Or you just wanted to test extended?

[eager lynx]

Flickers with Opti's XeFG

Game is heavy af so need FG

[dusty girder]

vanilla is sdr

[eager lynx]

Damn not having access to Smooth Motion sucks lmao

[rocky mortar]

Wait but the ascent doesn’t have HDR right? Last time I tried XeFG it didn’t work with generic-ue

[dusty girder]

thats why the highlights look off, its clipped sdr

extended is a proper well extended tonemapper

[eager lynx]

Yeah both at 0 is best

To me that is

My bad, only blowout at 0, hue shift maxed (default) is richer in colors 🙂

[dusty girder]

feel free to play with that

also set it to psycho, you might like that

[pastel sand]

Oh true. I asked in PureDark's wildly for any chance this getting FG haha. I'd love to run it with U+, but it can tax a 5090 hard even without it.

[eager lynx]

Might have better luck waiting for Opti to implement dlssg output

But no idea when the bois will manage it

[eager lynx]

Yeah I did 🙂

Unfortunate side effect is now HUDfix doesn't work anymore

But thankfully that game is basically glitch free without it

Only with XeFG tho, with FSR FG HUDfix is fine

Go figure lol

Anyway thanks again ! It's super nice now 🙂

[dusty girder]

idka nything about optiscaler

I use optiscaler xessfg with hudfix in code vein 2, ue 5.4

life good

my job ends at getting the mod to work

[eager lynx]

[dusty girder]

how it works with other mods idk

[last crypt]

Did anyone ever figure out how to actually fix the annoying flickering? trying to play DRG with renodx and it flickers, no matter what fix i try or UE EXtended etc

[eager lynx]

I'll let Nitec know about it as this is all new scenarios we hadn't tested yet

[last crypt]

Tried UE Extended, DLSS Fix, changing settings, using DLSSG path, downgrading dlss

[dusty girder]

DRG?

[last crypt]

all the same flickering

Deep Rock Galactic

[dusty girder]

thats not implemented

might look into it tomorrow

should be very easy

since the game has native hdr

[last crypt]

Its on the list

[dusty girder]

its 7am though, marat lseep

[last crypt]

Under generic UE

[dusty girder]

yea but thats the sdr path, which flickers with fg

[last crypt]

Or does that mean not implemented so flickering is normal

So basically info for a noob like me, nothing can be done?

[dusty girder]

we want the gud native hdr path, that works with fg

just wait until I wake up

and maybe ping me at like 5pm so I dont forget

5pm est/nyc time

[last crypt]

Sure will do

[rocky mortar]

I know but tried enabling HDR via cvars didn't work

I'll try your mod

[dusty girder]

what game?

[rocky mortar]

I have U+ installed

[rocky mortar]

The Ascent

[dusty girder]

you need ue4ss and the hdr10 hdr mod for it

ask gn3xus for help

I need to go to bed

ini tweaks arnt officialy supported, its just a bonus feature for power users

[rocky mortar]

ok good night!

[eager lynx]

For the Ascent, do this or just put its hdr-dx12 folder in if already having U+ installed

[dusty girder]

you also need to enable it in the text file

[eager lynx]

indeed, was gonna type about it
hdr-dx12 : 1

in mods.txt

And disable sdr path in ue extended

Apart from the fullscreen splash being oversaturated for whatever reason, it works fine 🙂

[rocky mortar]

ok I test it and report back, I'm heavly cpu limited in The Ascent

need that FG

[eager lynx]

FSR FG will work best it seems (HUDfix working with it for one and higher fps since it's lighter than XeFG for two)

But I'm GPU limited so that would explain the little framerate boost

U+'s denoiser none with preset M is just mwah here

[rocky mortar]

I think FSR FG will do the job there isn't much camera movement

Smooth Motion works but it has insane latency

will test this area again after reintalling

[eager lynx]

[slim fractal]

looks better

[slim fractal]

even better with your settings

Thanks your are the best ! 💪

[thick belfry]

I'm trying

[pastel sand]

I'm trying profile M now and it's shimmering like a lot. Is this why denoiser should be turned off? Wonder why profile M causes this though.

[eager lynx]

Idk if it's because of M but I think it's rather a combination

Denoiser none lets M do the denoising way better (it's one of those games benefitting from that)

And even with older presets highlights look better without denoiser imo

[pastel sand]

Highlights are strange with no denoising I'd say. Like super bright.

[pastel sand]

But more detail do appear whith M and no denoising.

And 5% less GPU usage.

SDR/Generic/Extended N2 Max Ch/Psyco 0-0

[thick belfry]

@dusty girder SDR native @ 203 nits / HDR custom

SDR Native @ 203 nits / HDR cursed but the most accurate color wise

[eager lynx]

Native HDR be like wtf

[sturdy lagoon]

what de

[thick belfry]

I've played this game with the HDR tweaks when it came out, and I don't remember anything like this

[eager lynx]

Got U+ installed and using Opti's XeFG so idk what it could be but with generic ue from SDR path, never did that

[eager lynx]

Good news is this game never got a patch or anything so it's a good reference point 😉

[thick belfry]

dunno if sarcasm

[eager lynx]

No it's serious 🙂

[thick belfry]

oh

okay

[eager lynx]

You said when it came out

So considering it hasn't been updated it's one less variable to worry about 😉

[thick belfry]

kinda wild it never got patched

[eager lynx]

Never really needed to be

It's not perfect by any means but besides extra features devs could have put in like FG, it just works as is imo 🙂

Also it has native FSR-FG if forced via engine.ini

(FSR3.0 so Opti could use FSR inputs and use DLSS instead, I shall try)

[eager lynx]

@mild hazel Something in U+ is causing this with native HDR path

I uninstalled U+ and no more weird hair colors

[mild hazel]

idk clear shaders, turn off advanced

same old same old nothing new

[eager lynx]

Never used ue extended before today so I'm noob about that

And it recompiles shaders at each launch

[mild hazel]

it doesnt

[eager lynx]

But I'll delete them just to be safe

[mild hazel]

no game recompiles all the shaders every launch, they all do validate and warm up

which never fixes weird issues

[eager lynx]

Got it

[mild hazel]

but yeah if you ever get weird RBG in a cutscene its probably advanced lighting, though I think I have potentially resolved that in future versions

[eager lynx]

Wait what setting is that for NWtD ? (advanced)

[mild hazel]

lighting mode

[eager lynx]

It was on standard

[mild hazel]

though I will say I played with advanced and never saw it

and used standard reno

[eager lynx]

Yeah didn't happen with SDR path of ue generic reno

[mild hazel]

would try clearing shaders though, every time you install any reno all the shaders are invalid

[eager lynx]

It recompiled them super quickly compared to post driver updates

But what I've deleted is usharderprecache in local appdata, is there anywhere else some of these are stored ?

[mild hazel]

nvidia dxcache

just delete all the most recent ones

as those are going to be specifically for this game

[eager lynx]

Alright, I think I got them 🙂 it's slower to compile now

🤞

[mild hazel]

I do this all the time especially for some games

like Obsidian games have issues where geometry will become invalid and you have to clear shaders to fix

[eager lynx]

Well, her hair is still messed up 😢

[mild hazel]

are you sure

[eager lynx]

Yeah, weird colors in hair is not doubtable 😉

[mild hazel]

idk, no issues I am aware of, especially if you aren't running advanced lighting mode

I guess I can try loading the game with ue extended

[eager lynx]

I mean it's happening with native HDR path for ue extended

Doesn't with SDR path of ue generic

[mild hazel]

will post in a sec

but if you increase lighting quality to very high+ it won't happen regardless

[eager lynx]

You already figured it out ? 😮

Good to know for my future rig

Current one can't handle that game cranked up too much

[mild hazel]

rip

[eager lynx]

Ampere peasantry be like

[mild hazel]

one of the best looking games easily with HW lumen and what not

[eager lynx]

IKR 😭

HW RT enabled is already the biggest upgrade, FG for coping with it all

But it's still around 70fps

[mild hazel]

ok you can update to 1.0.2

[eager lynx]

Awesome ! Thanks, will test rn

Do I need to nuke shaders again ?

[mild hazel]

no

[eager lynx]

Awesome, thanks again, I'll let you know as soon as I'm back in the intro car

[eager lynx]

She's looking normal again ❤️

[last crypt]

Release Date

2026

from the developers of godfall however

[calm slate]

I some what just moved the blow out slider to around 60 I think. The blow out restoration to 35. I'll have to double check when ever I'm at my pc. That got rid of most of the pink. The flicker is in relation to me using frame gen with a 30 series. A friend in 50 series had no flickering. It only flickers when loading into the lobby. There are minor UI transparent stuff but nothing noticeable in game. I guess modding frame gen on this specific game doesn't like it.

[pastel sand]

Does anybody know about this? #1411800884303626311 message

It looks like this haha.

But maybe there was something about Engine.ini not working and you had to use ingame CVar for the right one?

[last crypt]

sadly i have a 5090 and massive flickering

[ebon dome]

It looks like Remnant so a better inspiration this time.

[regal kayak]

looks like what happens when it's HDR10 but fails to set the color space

you have SK or anything like that going?

[pastel sand]

Used the DX12 file from here #1411800884303626311 message and now it'd fine. Guess Marat has it config so UE4SS automatically inputs r.HDR.Display.OutputDevice=3, because if you do it through the Engine.ini it defaults to r.HDR.Display.OutputDevice=5 which is ACES 1000-nit scRGB.

I think it an old bug or something and you had to set it up manually all the time.

Now my question would be... Using the Engine.ini for UE HDR would be skipping LUTs and color grading as it happen in other games if you use this method like Silent Hill f or COE33?

[dusty girder]

silent hill f has a native hdr slider

but I still didnt add all the luts from it

the reason something skips luts is because of how the code runs, since we're replacing "bad code with code code" we get the sdr luts even with native hdr on

[pastel sand]

Good morning Marat. Haha.

[thick belfry]

BTW, what are the benefits of using the ini path over the SDR path? Frame gen?

[dusty girder]

stability and framegen and all that

so the big oneis obv framegen

the sdr path has a perf cost sometimes, which is also sometimes not negligible when you're already struggling to get 60 fps on a 5090

[pastel sand]

Was about to ask that. Why the Engine.ini is used in some games and not others. In this case I'm using it for OptiFG.

[dusty girder]

and also visual and regular stability

[dusty girder]

like code vein 2 I didnt even setup an sdr path

that game runs ike shit, if I upgrade resources its just going to run worse

also its ue5, and in ue5 ini tweaks work a lot better

they're only grief in ue4

[pastel sand]

You said you were using XeSS in Code Vein 2? I've only managed to use OptiFG in The Ascent. What would be the difference?

[indigo plank]

some games also explode with sdr path but work with ini

[thick belfry]

BTW anyone remembers what was the cvar for the gamut expansion thingy?

[pastel sand]

But only if you use RenoDX so LUTs are not slipped right? Is one of my latest unlocked fear, skipping color grading. I'm probably under many misconceptions though.

[dusty girder]

this doesnt skip sdr luts, it processes them correctly

[indigo plank]

recent experience is mightreya demo doesn't work with sdr path but ini hdr works

[dusty girder]

yea both paths will almost always worth

its just ue4 gets griefed sometimes on the ini path and needs ue4ss to force the corrent output device

ue5 respects ini tweaks

but yea if you where to run this mod in silent hill f (after I add the) it would look as good (if not better after some changes to sdr lut handling) than the standalone mod

with ingame native hdr on

[hell this started off based on silent hill 2+f, and then I started re-writing stuff]

dont worry about sdr luts or sdr grading, I'm autistic about it too

[dusty girder]

@indigo plank whats wrong with the sdr path? upgrades grief?

[indigo plank]

sdr path even with no upgrades causes the to game violently flicker black

lots of log spam too iirc

[dusty girder]

yea

sometimes upgrades destroy a game

[calm slate]

That is strange then. My friend ran framegen with DLAA and reno on a 5090. His game seemed fine with no issues. I tried the DLSS Fix (Beta) but the game kept crashing immediately.

[tranquil lava]

r.HDR.Display.ColorGamut

[dusty girder]

gamut expansion is killed off in ue-extended

like dead

  // float _102 = (1.0f - exp2(((_84 * _84) * -4.0f) * ExpandGamut)) * (1.0f - exp2(dot(float3(_88, _89, _90), float3(_88, _89, _90)) * -4.0f));
  float _102 = (1.0f - exp2(((_84 * _84) * -4.0f) * 0.f)) * (1.0f - exp2(dot(float3(_88, _89, _90), float3(_88, _89, _90)) * -4.0f));

forever 0

(atleast in SM6/UE5 and Stellar Blade (only UE4 SM6 game) -- didnt find a reliable search to kill it off in SM5)

when doing what ue-extended aims to do, ue expandgamut just causes grief

[ebon dome]

I checked out what would happen in a UE game built with pixels when you use ue-extended - it uhhh... kind of works? the UI slider works on the UI only but everything else isn't affected by anything

if you crank UI all the way up, the weapon wheel permanently appears lol

it's a nice looking game tho

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2954080/Painted_In_Blood/

Steam

Painted In Blood

Painted In Blood is currently in development.…

Price

$9.99

[dusty girder]

if only the ui slider works

that means the shaders are missing

enable dump lutbuilders, restart the game, and send what gets dumped here

if its a UE5 game, do

[/Script/Engine.RendererSettings]
r.LUT.UpdateEveryFrame=1

[dusty girder]

@thick belfry when you find something you're happy with; lmk and I'll add it as defaults to the addon

also test diffrent areas

[dusk orchid]

ohh yes pls. im just getting back into this game rn

[tranquil lava]

would you mind adding these to ue universal ? these seem to be missing in lost soul aside

[dusty girder]

get ue-extended

and enable native hdr in game

lost soul aside works with that

dont need to mess with any settings, I already pre-configured it for lost souls aside

actually missing 2, let me add them really fast

let me add that one missing shader

well 1, one of those is useless

[tranquil lava]

i did but there's that 1 UI marker which is crazy bright for some reason, ui slider doesnt affect it sadly 🙁

[dusty girder]

yea,

its the same like that in regular native hdr

imo its worth using

[tranquil lava]

it works almost flawlessly in high on life 2 though 😄

[dusty girder]

ue5 plays better

with native hdr

the lost souls aside sdr path is kinda cooked imo

so I suggest just using native hdr, let me finish building though

native hdr on (make sure path is set to off; should default to that for lost soul aside)

[tranquil lava]

thanks! some weird stuff is happening - just rotating the camera makes everything green in the area im in rn

[dusty girder]

send me the save file

also is native hdr on?

and is only ue-extended installed, not ue-generic

[tranquil lava]

ue universal addon makes hdr go off in this area - so far it was all good (that marker goes with ui brightness so id rather stick to that if thats possible though!

yeah that's right 😄

[dusty girder]

I dont maintain ue-generic anymore

gotta wait for somebody else

[dusty girder]

where is the save file location again

[tranquil lava]

%USERPROFILE%/Saved Games/LostSoulAside/

and steamid dir

[dusty girder]

ty

they put it in a weird one

keep forgetting where it is

normally ue is localappdata

[tranquil lava]

haha yeah no idea why they wouldn't utilize userprofile/saved games path so everything would be in one place

even microsoft's games lawl

[dusty girder]

I dont mind %localappdata%\gamename

wake of despair is the right save right

I have a strong feeling this might be a game bug

ue extended supports an sdr path

you can turn off native hdr

and then turn path to on

and then do all the regular upgrades

and that will make the marker work like normal

but you cant use FG

[tranquil lava]

in the wake of disaster 😄

[dusty girder]

its not a game bug,good find

gotta fix

found the bug

when you go outside

there is a NEW shader!

[tranquil lava]

thanks! that's just this place, i kept going and seems to be okay later on

[dusty girder]

give me 5 seconds

there is another lutbuilder

[tranquil lava]

sure 😄

[dusty girder]

for that little balcony

5head developers

you can use lilium's tonemap shader to atleast get the marker to peak nits

using bt2390

the reason I suggest the native hdr path for this game is

resouce upgrades cause visual artifacts

in the sdr path

also no FG/MFG

[tranquil lava]

tbh i haven't noticed any but i have no idea what to look for ;(( thanks for the info though!
just couldnt stand that marker
actually dlssg to fsr3 fg makes fgx2 possible!

[dusty girder]

ok I think I fixed it

3dm bad decompile

@indigo plank if you're going to be fixing SM5 lutbuilders, it seems the regex is mandatory

atleast the second one that casts a few checks asuint()

3dm has all the cbuffers as float

which breaks certain bools/if checks

I've been skimping out on it because part of it is just [branch] in code that we dont run

[indigo plank]

Yeah I’ve been doing it just to be safe

[dusty girder]

@tranquil lava lmk if its still busted

tbh you dont need to do the first one

only the second one

but might aswell

https://github.com/marat569/renodx/commit/f4b4e206ad1fc64fa3774a12c9ed3a2e4de6dd73

the change is small, but its enough to break some games

ima have to go through all my sm5 shaders later and see if any are missing it

let me try to fix the objective marker

if its not effected by any slider, that means its drawing to a seperate pipeline/swapchain

should be easy enough to deal with it

[tranquil lava]

thank you, now it is perfectly fine!

[dusty girder]

let me look into the objective

scuffed fix but

its not ass

[dusty girder]

@tranquil lava gud? (flashbang warning)

seems to respect ui nits

here's the addon with the ui fix

[sullen spoke]

Code Vein 2
Crisis Core
High On Life 2
Lies of P
Like a Dragon: Ishin!
Lost Soul Aside
Mafia: The Old Country
Returnal
Romeo is a Dead Man

what am i missing?
want to curate a list for RDXC so it's easier to know what ue-e can be used in

[dusty girder]

a lot

what you have to understand is

1 lutbuilder can cover 50 games

we just dont know until somebody tries it out

Crisol Theater of Idols works with ini tweaks or sdr path (ini suggested)

I have a list of known native hdr on games in addon.cpp

ohh wuchang ini or sdr

Avowed
Lies of P
Lost Soul Aside
Hell is Us
Mafia: The Old Country
Returnal
Marvel's Midnight Suns
Mortal Kombat 1
Alone in the Dark

--

These are games with a Native HDR that I've coded the addon to automatically detect; and UE-Extended fixs the native hdr

[sullen spoke]

that's perfect man, thanks for the list to start with
can flag these differently on game cards with extra info if anything additional needs done

[dusty girder]

those just work out of the box

the user just has to turn native hdr on and thats it

[sullen spoke]

even better

[dusty girder]

Avowed has a native hdr mod, but its old meh code; @untold wadi said I can replace it with this; he has no plans on maintaining it; so you can replace avowed with ue-extended

idk how @regal kayak feels about this replacing his Wu Chang mod; since extended is on a newer codebase

his call, I dont mind either day

[sullen spoke]

it'll be optional anyway through the launcher
it'll default to wiki list unless told otherwise

[regal kayak]

I can’t even maintain it anymore since I don’t have game pass so yeah it can

[sullen spoke]

ok i can set games to auto default to ue-e

[dusty girder]

stellar blade via sdr path will work once @thick belfry finishes testing grading settings

in different areas

and gives me a list of settings

The wiki will prolly be changed too, atleast for avowed

I just dont feel like messing around with it rn

[pastel sand]

Now before you go to bed... Haha. What do you mean when you say "HDR slider"? #1474481327691665553 message

Could be a slider, a toggle, kind of native HDR implementation?

[mystic sinew]

Can we get these added from Hi-Fi Rush to UE-Extended? Found that only the UI slider was working and it affected the entire image brightness

[dusty girder]

sure, ping me in 12 hours

marat sleep soon

[thick belfry]

@dusty girder stop putting pressure on me
Or I'm gonna cry

[thick belfry]

Hifi rush is entierly custom UE, doubt it will work

[sullen spoke]

@dusty girder

[dusty lava]

In Remnant 2 character and vendor screens look washed out and scale with ui brightness. Looks same with ini hdr and upgrade.

[thick belfry]

@dusty girder Biblically accurate preset (yes I've checked all the biodomes)

[west canopy]

What exactly was wrong with stellar blade HDR? I played trough it on console 2 times and seemed "ok" but what was i missing out on I wonder? Or are you just testing the new tonemapper it makes it even better even more?

[shell igloo]

skipped color grading

as usual with unreal

[polar crest]

so unreal extended is fixed ?

[thick belfry]

I fumbled with the sliders until I got it right

[bold hawk]

Here a are lutbilders from Still wakes the deep. Native, even with tweaks, didnt work

@dusty girder

[dusty girder]

@thick belfry what are the sliders?

[thick belfry]

It's on the screenshot

[dusty girder]

oh its in the second one

sounds about right

1 per ch peak is a 100 nit color, so you're basically taking hue/chroma from an sdr color

and since the game is super reliant on per-ch clip

there is no way around it

[dusty girder]

@dusty lava just take the sdr path

remnant 2 doesnt respect ini tweaks though, you need UE4SS; and even then I think the char and vendor screens are busted because of UE memes

I think they did it because of anticheat memes

btw are you sure about exposure?

thats a slider that should almost never be touched?

[thick belfry]

Probably need to be encrypted in the .pak file like for the Jedi games

[thick belfry]

I love to touch it

And in case of SB, yes

because it saturates/desaturates per channel

The higher the exposure, the more pale the game looks

0.80 is the closest to the correct hues

[dusty girder]

does it have to be psycho4

[thick belfry]

yes, mew2 has banding around the sun

probably other highlights too

It's slight but it's there

[dusty girder]

psycho is n2 too!

[thick belfry]

🤷‍♂️

[dusty girder]

one is just max channel, the other is luminosity

[thick belfry]

https://tenor.com/view/todd-howard-it-just-works-bethesda-this-all-just-works-gif-20598651

Anyway exposure 0.80 + 280 PW + contrast 48 looks identical to 203 nits PW expo 1 con 1 brightness-wise

I know those are dank, but it's as close you gonna get
Unless you're gonna figure out what's wrong with the HDR path and fix it

[dusty girder]

@bold hawk mind sending me reshade.log from that game's native hdr (I assume you said the game has native hdr)

the shaders are missing thats why it didnt work, I'm just curious if the composite shader is there or not

you can also tell if the composite shader is there if you move the ui slider with native hdr on (or ini tweaks)

[dusty girder]

problem is

cant be shipping different paper whites

it has to look good at more or less any paper white

[thick belfry]

Well it won't

[dusty girder]

google says still wakes the deep has native hdr, which means you dont need ini tweaks; I just have to fix these shaders; let me get breakfast and I'll fix it

also even though hi-fi rush is custom

its post processing is all generic ue

[thick belfry]

u can use those but then the brightener part will be too red

[dusty girder]

well not any, just default 203

[thick belfry]

But it's close enough I guess

[thick belfry]

Exposure up + gamma up is pog
brighter midtones without fucking up shadows
It's why I keep asking for the per-luminance gamma slider like in the Musa mods

[dusty girder]

idk what that even is

are you talking about the hue preserving or y based 2.2 emulation?

musa mods games I dont play, so

idk what sliders do what

[thick belfry]

hue preserving ye

[dusty girder]

hue preserving is a meme

this had it

but i removed it

assuming its the same version

and not the new mcdonalds version which I didnt test

the "og version" is just
pow2.2
hue::correct(linear_color, 2.2_color)

[thick belfry]

Dunno, look at the RE4 mod

[dusty girder]

@swift plover what slider is he even talking about

[swift plover]

Just gamma by luminance piecewise so it doesn’t affect values above 1

I put it right after exposure

[thick belfry]

Why is hue preserving a meme?

[dusty girder]

send source

[swift plover]

Driving rn. Check Re4 remake in my neutwo branch

[dusty girder]

alright

[swift plover]

It’s a single line

[dusty girder]

all it does is create fake wcg, and the oklab version shits itself in the lows

[dusty girder]

yea idk what game has it though

[swift plover]

McDonald’s bottom is the way

Re4 remake

[dusty girder]

yea ik, didnt try it yet

[swift plover]

In neutwo branch

[dusty girder]

but idk if koklutz tried mcdonalds yet, I assume those are still in PR hell

I assume he's talking about the oklab hue preserving one

which is ass

[swift plover]

I just added it individually to several mods

[thick belfry]

Resident Evil 4 and FFXVI

[swift plover]

Re4 remake has all of it

[dusty girder]

I'll look into it later

[dusty girder]

oh thats the pumbo or lilium one

where they dont do gamma correct above 1 because thats not the spec

[bold hawk]

Idk if it's still needed, but with ingame hdr on ui slider did work

[swift plover]

Common sense tbh

[dusty girder]

ok

well I fixed them up

@bold hawk @mystic sinew

here is a build with hi-fi rush and still wakes the deep

for still wakes the deep make sure the game is on native hdr (no ini tweaks) -- if you want real time sliders you can use only this ini tweak

Also make sure Processing Path is set to off in the addon when using native hdr (and restart the game)

[/Script/Engine.RendererSettings]
r.LUT.UpdateEveryFrame=1

Please let me know

If you test it real fast, I can add it to the list of known working native hdr games

[dusty girder]

@polar crest it was stellar blade that was broken, the math the mod does is all gud

remember even ue-generic needed colorgrading presets to match vanilla in that game

[bold hawk]

Well, I've fucked up and sent shaders with ini tweaks on. And version above doesnt work with native hdr and no ini. I'll dump shaders again and send them

[dusty girder]

that should be fine

shaders dont really change

btw when you have native hdr on, make sure this is off (unless dumping lutbuilders)

if you have that on with native hdr, it will look broken

[bold hawk]

Yeah, I've checked

And all upgrades were off

[dusty girder]

whats the issue

with native hdr? (with the latest addon)

ima just buy the game for 5$

downloading

[bold hawk]

Game looks sdr, none of the sliders work (even with the above ini tweak), and ingame hdr game brightness sliders does change highlight brigtness, but it looks as if they are then "compressed" back down to sdr

[dusty girder]

well its almost done downloading

let me c

[bold hawk]

okay, thx

[dusty girder]

btw where did you put in

[/Script/Engine.RendererSettings]
r.LUT.UpdateEveryFrame=1

you know you have to create Engine.ini

and then set it to read only

if you put it in GameUserSettings.ini it wont do anything

[bold hawk]

Yeah, I know. And checked that it wass set to "Read only"

[dusty girder]

ok well starting it up

we'll c whats wrong

ok yea

I need the lutbuilders dumped with native hdr on

ima go do that

if you're furhter on in the game, you can help me out with that

you have to set processing path to on when dumping lutbuilders

and upgrade r10g10b10a2_unorm outputsize

the game will look fucked up, but its only for grabbing shaders

[bold hawk]

okay, will do

[dusty girder]

well the game doesnt want to dump more lutbuilders

unless it actually uses the aces only lutbuilder

we're cooked on the hdr path

[bold hawk]

It dumped this for me

[dusty girder]

oh nice

idk why it didnt dump shit fo rme; but I dont have those lutbuilders

[bold hawk]

But I could simple load into the game and exit because it was just a lot of bright mishmash of artifacts
