what exactly worked? which settings did you exactly change?

inland ravine
#

@maiden tide see what I mean?
sdr vs reno beta 1

maiden tide
#

Ah hadn’t seen any fire yet in the game

#

Does hue correction off look better

#

Might have to turn highlight saturation down a little

inland ravine
#

I'll test with beta 2

maiden tide
#

The fire relies on clipping to hue shift and blow out I guess

open obsidian
#

beta 2 eta?

dusty stream
maiden tide

#

But like a mention above the fps will randomly be capped

inland ravine
#

fire looks the same with beta 2
-# assumed it would just wanted to double check

dusty stream
#

Fucking game

#

Oh beta 2 is released?

#

Huhu

beta 2 is looking gudddddd

desert charm
#

Yes. Thanks to @maiden tide and everyone's hard work!

desert silo
#

you guys are making me want to get this game

desert charm
#

All problems aside, I love all 3 of these games so much!

#

hodl... no RT yet

spice verge
#

fuck RT šŸ˜„

desert silo
#

throw some ReShade GI in there, that'll fix everything PepeLaugh

spice verge
#

ewww, even worse hehe

slate gulch
#

Btw I put Game brightness at 275 and it seems to lessen the extreme changes of autoexposure of brightness.

#

Settings I am going with right now.

U VIL CONSOOM ZE RT

#

U VIL USE FRAMESLOP

?

solid sorrel
#

Same for now

dusty stream
# spice verge fuck RT šŸ˜„

if you take a look over what rt really does, is. first the light is already there, so the only thing it does is making it brighter. That on the light side

yup those are the one i took >D

who me?

If just brighter it wouldn't be so expensive lol

couple more screeners

slate gulch

I can't see clouds o.O

#

it doesnt look that way for me

#

odd

slate gulch
#

use reshade or such for screenshots?

final sand
#

oh wait yeah i forgot i can do that duh

slate gulch
#

don't use lightshot for screenshot on hdr. Doesn't come out right at all

Love the bed though lol

I’ll put a little write up together this evening. If you don’t mind I’ll dm it to you to make sure I’m not getting anything wrong.

maiden tide
#

now that its night time I can confirm the difference is visible

fossil aurora
fossil aurora
#

recently i was checking how cronos looks with and without it. like basically i saw 0 difference, maybe a little and performance hit was huge

dusty stream
#

hdr does better for me than rt on lights.

#

If you think about hdr improves colors saturation and blacks, rt on lights is like a shade for making the light colorfull, if you take away the garberish bouncing things xD

#

sadly the one from alucard is a hell to be able to make it work and you need like a 65" tv to be able to see the 15000 options he added -_-. But plus on top of that will swallow your fps

quiet pasture
#

Can I use this mod while playing coop? I wont get any sort of ban ?

fossil aurora
#

it doesn't have anti cheat so yes u can

quiet pasture
rare oyster
#

Can anyone explain the "HDR look" setting to me with the mod? Not sure if its worth using or not

polar flume
#

basically it is a preset made by whoever is the mod author, in this case Musa, that is changed from default to his preferences to make the hdr pop a bit more. Technically inaccurate of course but can look better but its subjective

#

@rare oyster

maiden tide
#

default settings are overexposed anyway

rare oyster
#

Ah I see, thanks fellas

I have tried Beta 2 release and it looks much more coherent than Vanilla HDR (which at first "It looks very BRIGHT and pop more colors" but highlights are crushed and black levels are raised or crushed at the same time) my only gripe is that overall Colors are a slightly muted and Fire effects needs some adjustment to pop more. (?) Thanks!

solid sorrel
#

Try the HDR look button

#

The game pretty much needs lower exposure and then a slight bump on saturation

spice verge
inner crypt
#

does this game have anti cheat ?
Ill love to use this but am unsure if ill get banned?

gleaming thistle
#

it doesn't have that, you can use reshade without any issues

ebon zephyr
#

i can't believe how fried native hdr is in this game lmao

slate gulch
#

I think this games Autoexposure is worse than freaking Cyberpunks lol

#

You look into sky and its dim as hell.

#

And look at ground its bright as hell.

#

never understood this kind of exposure.

#

Thankfully RenoDX kinda helps with it.

solid sorrel
#

Can confirm

#

You cross the border and rl eye exposure does that

hexed pasture
#

HDR is supposed to fix that, but most games are fuck-all when it comes to HDR. But Reno fixes it properly., and mimics it more closer to what you see IRL.

#

Your eyes adapt more smoothly, and locally so you rarely notice such harsh transitions.

Closest IRL equivalent is when you step out of a dark room into a bright sunlight, so your vision briefly blows out until your eyes adjust.

#

But unlike gamers, this adapts in seconds and doesn't constantly swing back and forth as you look around.

#

If you're recording something with a camera, though. Then you'll get behaviour like this game, but that's a hard limitation of how camears work.

Games have no reason to do this, lol.

#

Unless 'artistic intent'.

#

A camera set to expose the sky will make the ground look dark, and similarly if it's set to expose the ground, it'll blow out the sky. HDR can solve this by combining exposures, but it's still not as as good as human eye, but plenty better than what the games ship with.

hexed pasture
#

Running up the stairs, it's all dark/dim. And then you enter an area where all the windows are open or construction building or w/e, it just blows out your eyes for a bit.

#

But not sure if when on-ground, does it behave same as Dying Light or nah.

slate gulch
#

Yeah only time where my eyes need to adjust is when I wake up in morning. Black Curtains essentially and walking into light it does take a bit to see though lol.

dusty stream
inland ravine
#

looking through the files I think they might have actually dropped local exposure between games

#

looks like they're using a basic histogram based auto exposure

#

can only tell so much from reading the scripts but I think it's not in log2 which would help

rancid vapor
#

Hellow, please need help for fix hdr in game

#

okay so with the latest addon for this game, things look a bit better but nigh time is still completely and utterly broken for me at least.... like you really have to crank shadows/conrast to insane #'s to see anything. Am I missing something?

fossil aurora
#

isnt how it should be?

solid sorrel
#

night is meant to be dark

#

pitch black

fossil aurora
#

dark should be dark in my opion, thats why we have OLEDs

solid sorrel
#

because people complained that DL2's nights lacked horror

#

as they were bright

fossil aurora
#

u have moon

dim saffron
#

like can't see anything dark? that doesn't seem right? I mean I get it... why ppl want that but this seems broken and even the moon isn't casting any sort of ambient light -- the moon itself is still dark lol.

fossil aurora
#

seems good to me, just play in darker room

spice verge
#

night with flashlight looks stunning and looks as it should

dim saffron
fossil aurora
#

cuz it is, some areas are too dark, where they shouldnt be, like u cant see details

dim saffron
fossil aurora
#

but night should be dark

dim saffron
#

like look at the gameplay in night time - you should be able to see at least a bit of your surrounding - I'm literally seeing just black. That's not realistic.

maiden tide
#

night is whatever the devs want it to be

#

are you on oled

#

some games are pretty bright at night some are super dark

#

in SDR 2.2 gamma its very dark

dim saffron
#

Yeah I understand that - and I am on oled - but this seems broken to me. Like you should be able to see your environment a bit... not zero. Like I was expecting something similar to the video I linked above for night gameplay

this v ideo shows why HDR is broken

ok ill boot up the game and do a comparison with sdr

compare it to mod, it looks much better

yeah this looks like a complete mess. But I'm still convinced that you need to be able to see SOME of your environment via moonlight ambient lighting. Not seeing anything other than what your flashlight is shinign on seems broken to me as most if not all the night time game play footage I'm seeing shows a bit of your surrounding but it still keeps the vibe of being creepy and not overly bright by any means.

fossil aurora
#

moonlight doesnt give much in real life too tbh

#

if ur outside the city, where is no real source of other light u basiacaly see nothing

dim saffron
#

well it can, but the point being is that there is some ambient light to vaguely see your environment. The video I linked above demonstrates that but that isn't an HDR vid though

dim saffron
# fossil aurora it is HDR vid

if ur watching in firefox chance browser. its sadly cannot hold HDR videos

dim saffron
fossil aurora
#

sdr is brighter usually

#

from what ive noticed. black is not rly black there

dim saffron
#

yeah that's why this vid isn't exactly accurate for HDR purposes but I was more or less expecting a variation of that type of luminosity. Anyway if the game was meant to be pitch black in HDR like this I guess that's by design. Just seems a bit off to me is all.

perpetually running into walls and bumping your way through things cuz you can't see properly lol but I guess that's part of the drama.

maiden tide
#

are you not turning the flashlight on

dim saffron
#

i am - just mean that by not being able to see your peripheral just a touch it makes it a bit funny

maiden tide
#

seems to be their intention for it to be that dark

#

they clip shadow detail in the LUTs, so the LUT scaling slider brings some of that back

#

sunset was about 15 minutes ago so its getting darker in my room but not super dark yet and I can see shadow detail just fine

#

you can see with lut scaling turned to 0 all the shadow detail just gets completely nuked

#

here it is with a flashlight
RenoDX default settings but 100 game brightness / same but also with lut scaling turned to 0

fossil aurora
#

this is withought flashlight and i see a lot ofd details here

maiden tide
#

are you taking hdr images

#

reshade has a shortcut for hdr pngs

#

in the settings tab

#

it will allow us to see exactlyt what you see

hexed pasture
#

that's an HDR PNG.

fossil aurora
#

yes its reshade picture

#

HDR

#

when u use Q it lightens up a bit area

maiden tide
#

it matches the RenoDX default settings

#

that just seems to be what they intended

#

ignore the color graph those values get fucked by quantization since I took a screenshot and then opened that in mpv to get the hdr overlay on an sdr image

fossil aurora

night is fine

trying alucard rt, but is ghosting all around ¬¬

inland ravine

before an after

dusty stream
#

well give me a minute and i will upload it to youtube

inland ravine
#

also what is alucard rt?

dusty stream
#

discord and his upload limitations is so much annoying

#

i refuse to pay for nitro just to be able to upload a video

inland ravine
#

what am I supposed to be looking for?

dusty stream
#

over the left BEFORE

#

over the right AFTER (rt)

#

look at the shadows

inland ravine
#

what rt are you using?

dusty stream
#

alucard RT

#

idk if i can put a link to his discord

#

is shader for reshade

inland ravine
#

looks like it just crushes the shadows lol

dusty stream
#

noup xD

#

but it could be i was just able to get rid of the ghosting

#

but if you use reshade you can try it

#

for me is cleaning the image

#

over the left the image looks like brighter

#

idk it have something weird

dusty stream
inland ravine
#

was able to very accurately replicate the effect in photoshop
please tell me that shader isn't very intensive lol

maiden tide
#

or the left

#

left looks cursed

dusty stream
#

you can download it

#

and help me to configure šŸ™‚

#

but indeed is crushinig the shadows

#

maybe too much ao?

polar flume
#

That looks so dog shit

#

Way better without the shader

dusty stream
#

yeah because is not easier to make the configuration right xD

#

and plus you have to deal with issues if the depth buffer flickers xD

plain stump

the game already has pretty decent GI

maiden tide

seems like a waste of time

something that will never look good

What no RT on release does to a fella

I think a lot of these reshade shaders are impressive given their constraints, but the constraints are pretty damning to quality

like x4 to be able to upload to discord >/, it has a limitation of 10mb file

you have nitro?

fossil aurora

no

but this server has no limitations

max 50mb upload file without a nitro xD

ah, maybe that's why. I shared like 20 seconds video

dusty stream
#

yup mine was a minute video recorded over nvidia overlay with h264

fossil aurora
#

Nvidia sux šŸ™‚

#

so does AMD recording thing. I always just install driver only and use something like OBS to record or stream

#

with AMD u have option what u want to install, everything, minimal or just drivers. I don't understand why Nvidia doesn't do that

dusty stream
dusty stream
#

you will be suprised how much bs i took away from my w11 xD

dusty stream
#

I don't think it that will be much different from what I'm trying at least with the lights. For sure it will add some ambient occlusion and make the light colorful, since the light is already there XD

But maybe someone can try it for me šŸ™‚

solid sorrel
#

Musa do you know what is currently causing banding in darker areas?

#

All sorts of nasty banding

maiden tide
#

and they do 5 million full screen passes

#

like instead of doing tonemapping / lut / other post process in one shader

#

they split everything up

#

so its quantizing everything to shit a million times over

#

there is a way to force fp16 for some stuff in their engine

#

pumbo is gonna help once he's done with some luma stuff

solid sorrel
#

Nice

maiden tide
#

try playing in sdr if you wanna see how bad the banding gets

#

and turn on lut scaling in sdr during night time

and imo this is oversaturated but I'm not an expert so I don't know

ionic pivot
fossil aurora
#

but ye I don't have Nvidia for a couple of years so maybe something has changed

maiden tide
#

The drivers come with control panel

#

You can download drivers without the nvidia app however

fossil aurora
#

well what im trying to tell is that u cannot install DRIVER ONLY withougth all the bloat

ionic pivot
#

is the control panel considered bloat?

#

I am pretty sure you need it to access some GPU/display settings

maiden tide
#

Ya control panel is necessary

#

It doesn’t auto launch anything

#

You can remove it from the right click menu and the task bar

#

It doesn’t auto launch

#

It’s just necessary controls without any bullshit

plain stump
maiden tide
#

Can’t remember if I even tried

plain stump
#

otherwise you'd do the SDR path šŸ˜…

maiden tide
#

Ya SDR didn’t work

#

Problem is these devs constantly change shit up

#

Constant updates and changes to code

plain stump
#

yeah, I don't think I even want to play the game with the current HDR situation

#

fucked beyond renodx saving it

maiden tide
#

Pumbo contacted them so hopefully we get something good

slim finch
#

hopefully they can add it to dying light 2 while they are at it

near cloud
#

i legit don't wait. i've heard so many "just wait for the patch, bro" and that's why we're here

#

THE PATCH AIN'T COMING

solid sorrel
#

meanwhile

#

'I am going to wait until the final patch before modding a game' - Pumbo

#

Duality of man

slim finch
#

it's always odd to me like the game is or was a title with nearly every top end RT feature (maybe not full path tracing?) and ships without hdr

#

it's mind blowing

solid sorrel
#

because RT can be visualised on anything

#

HDR cant

#

You can market and showcase Pathtracing on a youtube vid

#

cant do that with HDR unless the viewer already has access to a good display with competent HDR

#

Doesnt help that everyone and their grandma is using UE5

#

and UE5 skips grading

fossil aurora
#

And for YouTube processing that video can take even days

dusty stream
#

i think that ray traicing will like something similar to that

glacial sonnet
#

I stopped uploading in HDR. even with all the settings at recommended parameters for youtube it NEVER processes. its jsut not worth it anymore. I used to have better success. I think unless you are a partner channel you get stepchild treatment

dusty stream
#

left after / before (look the light on the water)

#

i think that it the way that the sun sopouse to be working xD

#

for some reason without rt the water is like without light

slim finch
#

i guess a large amount lmao

#

the display is the most important part of the chain so many people neglect it

solid sorrel
#

Hence why RT/PT is more common place

slim finch

If bit depth is really bad then you can get some hue shifting

#

In hitman they sample the 16x16x16 hitman 3 LUTbuilder in linear which causes a slight green tint in dartmoor

#

Just turning on tetrahedral changes the hue a little

#

And changing the encoding entirely removes the green

inland ravine

interesting

#

In theory fp11 is less precise in color than fp16

#

And it uses less memory so who knows

#

Wonder how the color's will look on fp16?

#

Btw you were right the shaders from rt looks like garbage and I give up -_-

#

I wonder if it is a way to activate lumen gi in dying light since it use ue5?

inland ravine
dusty stream
#

oh for fuck sake, im in the corner every time

desert silo
#

I love Alucard but UberRT is one of the hardest RT shaders to configure as it is

#

way too many options

dusty stream
#
  1. you have to use vector motions

  2. use mask before and after place rt in the middle and everything else

  3. to setup rt you must disable the mask otherwise rt won't be able to see properly

  4. reverse the depth buffer

desert silo
#

motion vectors or another shader to provide normals is going to be something you'll use for most RT / GI shaders

dusty stream
#

and go from there

desert silo
#

the other issue is that most shaders don't work with HDR on their own (at least not properly)

dusty stream
#

plus change the shader path because in there is my path

#

dont mind the hdr with the one from renohdr

desert silo
#

Probably because it's HDR10 (I'm assuming)

dusty stream
#

maybe?

desert silo
#

if it was scRGB you would know, because it would look really bad

dusty stream
#

at least over my cellphone things looks better

#

but well for now i have an ips hdr 400 peak :S

desert silo
#

in that guide I linked, you'll see something called Soop's HDR converter shaders. If you use ReShade shaders often with HDR it's worth a look šŸ™‚

#

btw where did you end up finding the best deal for the game? I was going to get it myself but didn't feel like spending full price on it

dusty stream
#

in argentina different price

#

just a local site from here

#

anayways if you test those guide with my ini file let me know

#

or show it here šŸ˜„

desert silo
#

will do šŸ‘

dusty stream
#

or something?

#

because i was looking over yor information

#

and you make guides for reshade and hdr things

#

and youre marker as a supporter

#

idk from where you are, but really you have money issues to buy a 40 dollars game?

#

o.O

#

and i thugh that was me dealing with inflation problems over my country poggspin

#

and yes i told to alucard many times to reduce the ammount of options becasue sooner or later you will need a 65" tv to be able to view all the options

desert silo
#

lol, no I don't work for ReShade. Just volunteer my time to making guides and helping with wiki stuff occasionally.

#

But I'm active in most of the ReShade servers

dusty stream
#

plus lacks of guides and so on, but often what i do is to put the before and after shader and play with the settings and i try to make it look closer to the base image and from here i change things slowly

#

but like someone else said above it wont never look the same as true rt

#

but well if you look dying light 2

#

is closer to what i did but they add some shadows

desert silo
#

screenspace RT will never look as good as proper world space RT (or whatever you want to call it)

#

and I say that as someone who has used and still uses a few of the ReShade ones

dusty stream
#

do you want me to sent you

#

a dm?

#

so i can talk to you in private?

desert silo

i tried the beta ver. 2 of the RenoDx addon, on this game , looks pretty good for the most part , good black levels now at least , but the perf. is kinda laggy now , not fluent anymore compared to how it run without this reshade addon. guess it still needs more work ? i disable btw the Effect Runtime Sync and Generic Depth , but it didndt improve the game latency still doesnt feel smooth anymore with this addon on .

#

will wait for the final version ! but good progress so far with Beta ver 2. keep up the good work goats ^^

glad whale
#

framerates are identical but it looks very stuttery

inland ravine
#

interesting

#

played through the whole story without any issues

glad whale
#

I'm on Linux btw (CachyOS) if that matters

inland ravine
#

gpu / cpu?

glad whale
#

5800X3D + 7900XTX

#

I've tried in in a safe zone, locked 160fps (fsr frame gen + TAAU), vanilla HDR looks perfectly smooth, as soon as I select the other tonemapper in RenoDX it looks choppy, while the frametime graph is exactly the same

inland ravine
#

sounds like either a linux issue or amd issue

inland ravine
#

amd or nvidia?

wicked marsh
#

game runs considerably worse latency (lag) wise , with that addon enabled ,even the fps number on screen its pretty much the same !

#

i disabled it and it run v smooth again , i mean i imediatly notice the diff , after the first 2,3 seconds after i reboot the game without that addon enabled .

#

its not unplayable with the addon enabled also , but its def not feeling like high resfresh rate experience anymore , feels more like 40-50 fps latency wise if i can say.

glad whale
#

looks like a amd issue then

wicked marsh
#

this addon runs fine on nvidia ?

#

u dont notice any latency penatly with it on , on nvidia gpus ? on my system it feels considerably worse latency wise with it on .

#

after i disabled it felt night and day better imediatly i noticed the smoothness.

inland ravine
wicked marsh
#

ic. ya could be from the amd side then , not sure.

inland ravine
#

@maiden tide any ideas?

wicked marsh
#

but will def. try it again ,when the final release is out !

#

reno/DX addon did wonders for me in "Cronos the New Dawn" it literally transform the game look in HDR. so i think it can be done here to after the final release is out !

#

just needs more fine tuning /time ^^

maiden tide
#

So I’d try deleting shader cache

inland ravine
#

^ @glad whale @wicked marsh

glad whale
#

Didn't help unfortunately

maiden tide
#

Only thing i know related to stutters in this game is that according to DF reflex causes stutters

inland ravine
#

can you use reflex with an amd gpu?

#

it seems to be related to amd gpus and reno in this specific game

glad whale
wicked marsh
#

seems amd bug ,related prob.

dusty stream
#

It gets stuck when you move the mouse around

#

Or the mouse will move very slow on the inventory menu

#

In my case I don't notide any performance loose with this addon

#

So I'm pretty sure that the issues mentioned above are related to hardware configuration

dusty stream
inland ravine
dusty stream

and i think that i have reflex disabled

Hey all I'm new to the server, where can I locate the download for this, I'm playing on a 65in LG G4 and my eyes are starting to feel a little crispy from the over exaggerated highlights

dusty stream

oh wait i just realize you cant disable reflex with nvidia frame generation -_-

lapis lintel
#

Too bad reshade causes stutters for me, uninstalling it fixed the issue so there are no other causes

#

Can't use the HDR fix😭

maiden tide
#

Does deleting shader cache and letting it rebuild help

inland ravine

I wonder if people are installing Renodx at the very beginning of the game, when it isn’t very demanding, and then they get to Old Town, which is one of the more demanding parts of the map, and start having performance issues and assume it’s because of Reno.

im waiting for them to fix the god damn ray traicing

#

maybe in the year 2027 xDDDDDD

#

if dying light 2 took idk how long

I need to reinstall the game, but I don't want to lose my RenoDX settings. Do I just need to backup the addon file, or do I need to backup other files as well? Thanks.

Reshade.ini contains the Reno preset settings

So just save that

Thank you!

dusty stream

you know what the worst part of it?

that ppl keep buying lies

solid sorrel

There was never any RT to begin with

xD

#

in theory there was how idk

solid sorrel
#

im based my comment over their promo video

#

but how they did that idk

#

but i cant take lies so idk for me is a nono

inland ravine

why immediately jump to conspiracy bs lol

dusty stream
inland ravine
#

more than likely still working on it

dusty stream
#

idk i dont have the eyes of agamoto

#

to be able to see what i cant

#

xDDDDDD

#

now, that "it wasnt a last minute and a top priority"

#

i bet my ass that was a lie

#

thats for sure you cant promote something adn then release it without what you were promoting

#

is like a scam idk atomic fall did something similar

#

but they are russian xD

#

and i think that it took em like 2 or 3 years to implement rt on it

#

dying light i think it took long ass time to implement it too

#

so idk why should i expect "sooner" without eta given a rt for this game? xD

inland ravine
#

dl2 had it at launch but it was half assed

dusty stream
#

well but how long they took in impleneted it?

#

more than a year i guess?

#

and keep in mind that most of developers

#

after december they take vacations

#

so idk lets say that they have like a short window of 3 months to "fix whatever" that have

#

so will see if it is a top priority, i seriously doubt it

#

but for sure i am more than thankfull of ppl of this discord did with hdr

#

it improves lots of things in games

New update, notes are very vague

meh

#

they needed to release a patch

#

for over a skin? is stupid hahha

so I'm curious, how are people feeling about this game that are playing it right now? Is it good enough or better to wait?

jolly valve

#

they deleted that?

damn, that doesn't bode well

now I'm worried they're gonna pull an atomic heart lol

Hopefully it wont take a long time

desert charm

that makes waiting hard 😩

#

I'm at least gonna wait until I get through silent hill

desert charm
#

I hope you will love it šŸ™‚

#

Few reasons I don't have Silent Hill f yet.

  • 1st: it's almost $100 CAD for the base game in Canada.
  • 2nd: I've had brain sugery a few years ago and I'm a really slow reader.
    When I watch anime, I keep having to pause the anime to keep up. The fact that it doesn't have an option for english dubbing, I would never be able to keep up. For that price tag, I really wish that would have been an option.

I was surprised to see it when booting up the game lol

Well BLF is Important ofc and one thing many games get wrong so I cant blame him for highlighting that

im not hdr expert at all but even i could tell this game hdr looks fried

Yeah ofc

wicked marsh
#

what this guy talking ?

#

he saying Vanilla HDR in D.L. The Beast is best he ever saw šŸ¤”

polar flume
#

eye searing tonemapping + pretty good black level floor = goated HDR

wicked marsh
fossil aurora
#

no wonder this HDR is best for him, he just likes vibrant unnatural colors

#

his face is almost pink, so unnatural

solid sorrel
#

it is sooo bright, we're back to clipping again

#

looks like ITM (except it is native HDR which makes it even worse)

#

abysmal

#

HDR privileges should be revoked

wicked marsh
#

ya Vanilla HDR in that game is pretty much average to my eyes . i mean i saw worse for sure in other games , but its def not. peak goated level like that guy saying now , is the best HDR implementation he ever saw in a game so far he saying , in D.L The Beast .

spice verge
#

i'd rather play it in SDR than it's vanilla HDR mode

wicked marsh
#

tested , both HDR looks a little better in that game but , its not massive diff. they pretty close ^^

Back at square 1 with DF now lol

solid sorrel
#

Just when you think

sterile void
#

i stick to renodx

wicked marsh
#

me to , but for D.L the Beast needs a little more fine tuning , on amd at least its v laggy with the RenoDX addon on

#

its still in beta ver 2. thou

wraith egret
#

I don't think it is the Vanilla HDR's fault, devs wanted the game to look like this because even if you play in SDR, game has awful glow everywhere (glow disabled too).

#

And the game has the best HDR test screen ever, we have total control (almost) and 3 different scenes to compare and configure.

#

RenoDX is better of course but this game has one of the best HDR implementation because of the things I have mentioned

sterile void
#

forgot to ask should i leave hdr on or off before using renodx

#

i remember metal gear hdr had to be on

wicked marsh
fossil aurora
wicked marsh
#

doesnt feel smooth at all latency wise , compared with the addon disabled . feels like 40-50 fps latency wise with the addon on ,try with the addon off ! u can see ,notice the diff imediatly in term of smoothness latency wise.

#

other user with the same gpu reported the same thing like me last night here.

not on my end

for me everything is fine. I even managed to "implement" fsr4 for this game, so now I'm using fsr4 native aa šŸ˜„

no you just have a time of day setting in the adjustment menu so you can make sure the global settings you tweak look good in all 3

wicked marsh
#

Then those extra tabs are useless ^^ for nightime/evening

polar flume
#

somewhat

#

i mean i guess its so that if you set screen brightness and shadows for daytime you can make sure you dont have super raised or super crushed visuals at night

#

i think thats generally a good idea for a hdr calibration menu, i like that

polar flume
#

since you can hide the menu you can now even use that to easily tweak your own renodx preset with that menu

#

if the sliders are realtime, i dunno

maiden tide
#

Oh forgot to mention the game doesn’t just raise blacks at night but it also clips black at all times

plain stump
maiden tide
#

The lutbuilder encoding clips blacks and the decoding is broken as well so then it crushes

unfortunately, we'll never know if they actually believe in the work we do or if they think it's the ramblings of mad men

what you mean?

I should clarify I am a hater in regards to basically everything

inland ravine

you don't say

maiden tide
#

The ui blending is the best thing implemented in the game. It’s the same way pumbo does it in his mods

orchid plover
royal dust
#

The other AOC OLEDs have the same problem afaik

dusty stream
maiden tide
#

They blend in gamma space like in sdr and then they tonemap elements under the Ui so they don’t burn through the UI

dusty stream

damn it there no monitor with good ratings

#

to be fair, if any game devs spend more than a day on HDR, it's already 50x better than most. the floor for HDR is basically underground

orchid plover
maiden tide
#

Ya every UE game is essentially broken, and double broken if they use LUTs

royal dust

#

They just do not focus on hdr period

In silent hill they definitely just turned it on in the engine and that’s it

Where can I find the link to the RenoDX Fix for this game? Sorry but I am not very familiar with Discord...not yet

dusty stream

option for now

near cloud
#

the pins ^

orchid plover
#

ooohhh ok Thanks!

near cloud
#

or did i push to the repo yet?

maiden tide
#

Honestly the fix is pretty limited because they use very different exposure values between sdr and hdr so the input varies pretty wildly

#

If you just click the ā€œhdr lookā€ option on the bottom of the renodx settings pane those are good punchy settings

#

The defaults are neutral

dusty stream
#

indeed

#

and they didnt fixed hdr yet

#

XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

#

proabably the way the manage expousre

#

is the way they wanted

plain stump
#

Honestly it sounds like the whole implementation needs to be redone

maiden tide
#

Interiors do match the exposure level of SDR

#

So if exposure matches

#

Then they really just need 2.2 emulation and a neutral tonemap

dusty stream
#

probably they wont do it

maiden tide
#

Ya since from df said he liked it too

#

So it’s forever broken

near cloud
#

i feel like industry leans to industry

#

or maybe i'm just jaded

#

if DF sees that industry has presented an option, then it's automatically better than what normies do

inland ravine
#

didn't pumbo reach out to techland?

near cloud
#

sure, but also irrelevant

#

i'm talking about people who hold the devs responsible

#

journalist/youtubers

#

first-party solutions > third-party solutions

#

which goes back to my point

dusty stream
near cloud
#

is it better than custom solution? doesn't seem like it, but industry will back (protect) industry

maiden tide
#

It’s just weird that its ACES randomly slapped onto the end
