INZZZANE COLOURS

#

what about blues

#

check last rite and her weapon

sturdy osprey
#

I cant see difference

#

Whats this supposed to do

rustic echo
#

well it made a reportedly 700+mil usd

#

and 60% came from PC/console. So there's some hope for RT yet

woeful raven
#

u can add it on your profile

#

and i can checkkk

glacial kayak
#

Need iPhone level processing first

onyx bolt
#

the github up to date for this mod? or do i gotta scroll up

woeful raven
#

you can just

#

you know

#

check the pins

onyx bolt
#

no one ever keeps those up to date lol

stable lava
#

here pins are always up to date EZY

@dusky wave

#

MCD

dusky wave
woeful raven
#

do you have a reference

#

i need to open an old build to get a reference

dusky wave
#

one sec

#

OKFlap / MCD

#

MCD has more highlight saturation on the purple glowy thing

#

in the middle

dusky wave
#

Theres a beeg difference

#

Musa will sometimes showcase off something, and on first inspection it looks almost the same

#

until you notice what the issue is

#

then you cant unsee it

#

lol no wonder the gilberta story was so bad https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s-cBoAEx6gY

Gilberta's old story is about finding happy moments in the sad moments instead of trying to keep despair at bay by thinking happy thoughts. It's about living in the world that exists and being happy instead of creating a fake world in your head where nothing sad ever happens.

Her new story is a confused patchwork of narratives that fails to ...

▶ Play video
#

they completely fucking butchered it and her character after the closed beta

dusky wave
#

yes

#

she was integrated into the story

fleet socket
#

man i wish they never beta tested this game

dusky wave
#

which they removed

fleet socket
#

literally every change made to the story and characters was for the worst

jovial tiger
#

Wuwa too. They butchered the story after the test Despairge

#

Can't have a MC that isn't worshipped

dusky wave
#

gacha is for coming back home after work and enjoying waifus

#

not le depressing story

#

Mcdonald bottom will be used in Crimson Dessert that much I can tell

#

that games colours are fucking beyond cooked

#

OKFlap wont save us there

rustic echo
#

I'm of the opposite, i don't ant another edgelord inducing story

#

give me hope and power of friendship anyday

#

i've had enough drama irl

dusky wave
#

This is why games shouldnt have story

#

should just be gameplay and thats it

rustic echo
#

tata was already sad enough lol

jovial tiger
#

They are bringing Tata back tho 100%

#

No one stays dead in gacha

fleet socket
#

oh for sure

#

we didn't even see its "body" lol

#

it was likely teleported to the aether dimension or w/e

waxen delta

😋

tame grove
tidal finch
#

So I went around to finally playing the game more than just the first hours

#

Did I break something, or is the LOD really that awful

#

what even happened here

fluid patio
#

Game has bad depth of field scaling with upscalers

#

Not sure why it's only affecting certain parts of Perlica though

#

I also think I remember someone mentioning in this chat that even at native game has a few cases of it looking like that as well

sudden nest
#

it only applies to some cutscenes

#

for some reason

fluid patio
#

So are dof results still the same even when using upscaling?

sudden nest
#

no dlaa/taau is better

#

lower res = worse dof

gloomy tulip
#

Looks like shadow acne

rustic echo
#

maybe without fps unlocker

#

and the gtao?

woeful raven
idle notch
#

sadge
i was kinda experimenting with them
highlight saturation + per-channel blowout

woeful raven
#

you dont experiment anymore

#

no you will have no sliders

#

and be happy

rustic echo
#

Forge brings new things, spi only taketh back

woeful raven
#

indeed

gloomy tulip
woeful raven
#

have you finished

#

the main story

#

lol

twin haven
#

damn, I don't wanna finish it yet, pixelated DOF + i wanna marinate it for a year first

gloomy tulip
#

Havent started on wuling main story yet

woeful raven
idle notch
gloomy tulip
#

The DOF is so ugly, I wonder what did they do

#

My guess is really bad upsampling

#

Not a sight of upsampling despairge

glossy compass
#

Reshade + Linux = Anticheat trigger I guess?

sturdy osprey
#

but is that supposed to be more accurate

#

or preference

woeful raven
#

mcd in general looks to be more accurate

#

which is why i changed to mcd and hardcode settings and removed the hue shift/blowout slider all together

grizzled saddle
#

Crosire fixed it with 1 line pepe_cri

woeful raven
grizzled saddle
#

Nope lol

#

That one had 200 lines changed or some shit

#

I got humbled hard

woeful raven
#

Fg is still gonna be broken with sdr path regardless right

rustic echo
#

DLSS fix? or vk and dlss fix isn't a thing?

grizzled saddle
woeful raven
#

Pog

gloomy tulip
#

It seems like this game needs fps limiter to flatten the frametime

#

Reno fps limiter 🙏

rustic echo
woeful raven
#

In the github

gloomy tulip
#

Without vs with

gloomy tulip
rustic echo
#

so display commander works with vk endfield?

gloomy tulip
#

Even nvidia's driver cap is bad

rustic echo
#

i haven't tried it

gloomy tulip
#

It's reno's fps limiter

#

Doesnt need display commander yet

rustic echo
#

i know special-K's fps has some funky stuff, and it was fine...if not buggy sometimes with DLSSg

#

I never touch the reno one...hmm

brittle abyss
twin haven
#

also my first time hearing it even though i occasionally go in RenoDX GitHub page

tidal finch
tidal finch
#

Half res of the pre-upscaling

dusky wave
#

but the game randomly decides it will either use half res or full res for DoF

#

if you use the camera tool, the DoF there will always be full res

#

and some cutscenes also use full res DoF

#

then other times the cutscenes use half res DoF

jovial tiger
gloomy tulip
#

I guess its just task manager scaring me? Usage is so high in pause screen

gloomy tulip
dusky wave
#

OK geezers

#

I am working on redoing screenspaced shadows

#

I disabled the fake cloud shadows (it was a bc7_unorm 1024x1024 texture)

dusky wave
#

as you play on

gloomy tulip
#

Yes

dusky wave
gloomy tulip
#

I noticed CPU usage just doubles on random boot

sturdy osprey
#

in 1 year this will be called endfield: remake

spiral imp
#

my pc going to be running endfield at 30fps

twin haven
brittle abyss
#

To be certain I'm seeing the right thing. Phone screen.

jovial tiger
#

But yeah I played limbus for a few months and found the story much more enjoyable

dusky wave
#

previous / new

Added some FFXVI special sauce shadow code + split enviroment and grass screenspace shadow hardening

This way distant enviroment meshes still gets hardening but grass doesnt get cooked

strong vault
#

You cooked again

dusky wave
#

Im taking a look at Bend's "depth bias"

Midfield's terrain is flat AF so shadowing doesnt apply, Bend mentioned in their paper that thats the same thing with Days Gone but they were able to use depth bias to still apply contact shadows onto flat terrain

#

in -game GTAO does apply to POM and gives extra shading to terrain

#

so its probably the same just need to add it to shadows

woeful raven
#

@dusky wave

#

push mcd changes to my gith00b

#

u can rebased now

woeful raven
#

Have you finished the quest

dusky wave
#

what quest

#

I did everything

#

I just have some event quests left

woeful raven
#

Nice

dusky wave
#

both pics are using Reno Dee Eggs tonemapping/grading/HDR

#

the colour grading is exactly the same

#

but bruh, vanilla rendering is something

woeful raven
stable lava
#

unity4SS
etc

dusky wave
#

ambient link coming in clutch because holy shit does vanilla look like shit

Looks like SW lumen light leak you see in just about every UE5 sloppa

dusky wave
#

I would need engine level changes

#

they really implemented Bend's SSS

#

but then didnt use Depth Bias

#

bruh

#

Shit literally costs nothing and improves visuals of EVERYTHING using depth buffer

#

0.18ms on a Plebstation 4

strong vault
#

total optimization

#

fast af boi

dusky wave
#

Midfield could literally have this

#

for the cost of nothing

#

left is literally what most terrain looks like in this game

#

let me see what I can do

sturdy osprey
#

tbf i dont like how right looks

dusky wave
#

deferred shaders have displacement data so maybe I can pseudo use that

sturdy osprey
#

cuz thats not how it looks like irl most of the time

#

you dont get sharp shadows on everything

dusky wave
#

HOW DARE YOU

#

THIS IS KEVINS FAVOURITE GAME

sturdy osprey
stable lava
#

no his fav game is Callisto because they didn't use UE's slop brdf

dusky wave
#

nor does irl use 720p SSR

#

Anyways the strength we can control

#

I can do 50% of that pic

sturdy osprey
#

if you have -3 on your glasses prescription it might look like 720p ssr without them

stable lava
#

just don't have glasses ez

sturdy osprey
#

also

#

think about the poor android devices

stable lava
#

30% revenue

sturdy osprey
#

most people dont have enough pixels rendered to see grass

sturdy osprey
#

cope with mfg, that fixes everything

stable lava
#

dx11 doesn't

dusky wave
#

ummm

#

Luma has FG now

stable lava
#

port renoslop to lumakino

#

all of it

dusky wave
#

fellas

#

I think I did it

fleet socket
#

forge the government should be paying you for this kind of service

#

hmm. the improved SSR kinda breaks here

strong vault
#

Side effect of including more stuff in SSR heihachiPlasma

fleet socket
#

that makes sense

sturdy osprey
#

gotta pathtrace it and call it a day

#

buy 5090 or dont play endfield

dusky wave
#

Forgeslop Depth Bias

woeful raven
#

happened to the crate

dusky wave
#

its fukked is what it is

#

Shit game

#

Need to feed and redo materials

#

to have displacement term

sturdy osprey
#

bruh slopfield somehow overrode my volume control in their event UI

#

first time ive seen that

spiral imp
#

Hsr did that for me

#

When clicking on the news tab

dusky wave
#

fuk

#

now we have another issue

#

They only use PCF

#

instead of PCSS

#

so all the shadows have the same uniform sharpness

#

looks wack

#

Relay is casting a long ass shadow, base of the shadow looks the same as the very top of the shadow

#

WACK

#

Mobileslop once again keeping us down

#

even a 7800 GTX can run PCSS

#

Anyways let me add it

#

No

#

aint noooo way

#

I might have fukked up here

woeful raven
dusky wave
#

the blocker was wrong

#

so it transitioned from ultrasharpmaxx to low res 128p

#

3 feet away

#

thats why I said aint no way

#

it could be that their CSMs are fukky wukky

#

which is why they didnt bother with PCSS

#

and just slapped on a global PCF blur

#

thats uniform

gloomy tulip
#

The shadows become blurry on the grasses hmm

dusky wave
#

Didnt implement PCSS

#

Didnt implement Bend Depth Bias

#

Ogre for me

#

I am washed

#

time to retire

gloomy tulip
#

Ngl i wouldnt try so much because if an object is forward rendered then you have to edit them too

#

Its a nightmare

dusky wave
#

I'll tell you a even bigger nightmare

#

1.1 update

woeful raven
#

thats what the refactor is for

#

@grok slap lutsample(), sdrgrade(), hdrgrade() in

gloomy tulip
#

What will 1.1 update bring

#

And when

dusky wave
woeful raven
#

forge is just dreading

#

having to re-do everything

dusky wave
#

I wont be re-doing anything since I will be modding Crimson Dessert

woeful raven
#

oh yeah

#

im removing all features next patch

covert jetty
#

I think you'll have a few days after 1.1 comes out

gloomy tulip
covert jetty
#

It should follow the protocol pass

dusky wave
#

dreadful

gloomy tulip
#

I thought 1.1 would come after this season or something

#

Like when all the current events end

dusky wave
#

thats probably when it will be

woeful raven
#

and be happy

covert jetty
#

Why after all these years did Endfield and Crimson Desert need to drop in the same quarter

#

How do they expect me to split my time like this

woeful raven
#

@dusky wave you know what's funny

dusky wave
#

MGSV.5 is also coming out

woeful raven
#

march 19 is also

dusky wave
#

March 19

woeful raven
#

wuwa 3.2

dusky wave
woeful raven
#

with native hdr

dusky wave
#

it will get delayed

#

again

woeful raven
#

assuming it doesnt

#

no one will be working on endfield

dusky wave
#

HG will

spiral imp
woeful raven
#

hg will pull a wuwa 3.1

#

and everyone will come back

#

or another teletubbies patch

#

with no stakes and ass writing

dusky wave
#

Another Avywenna quest when?

#

Aussie Bnuy does something to me

covert jetty
#

Kitamura Eri bnuy > Aussie bnuy

dusky wave
covert jetty
#

Are Aussie accents even hot? I hear them all day every day so it's just normal for me

dusky wave
#

🤷‍♂️

#

Avywenna is fully draped in leather

#

yet her mannerisms

#

just exude lewd

#

HG cooked with that character

#

too bad they didnt cook with the story

gloomy tulip
#

I don't think the story is bad imo

#

The operator stories are good too

dusky wave
dusky wave
fleet socket
#

i like gilberta's story. it's pretty impressive how they managed to fuck it up so badly

#

needs to be studied

dusky wave
#

Endmin glazing is

#

something

#

antagonists so far are

#

?????

#

landbreakers are just borderlands bandits tier

gloomy tulip
fleet socket
#

it's incoherent due to how gutted it was

dusky wave
#

She had a whole plot dedicated to her from tech test

#

that got removed

#

and they never reworked her

#

its still written as if you already know her and did tech test

fleet socket
#

gilberta's story tries to have emotional beats based on stuff they completely removed from the game

#

it doesnt work lol

gloomy tulip
runic dove
#

i thought she just had like, the two quests where she appears and then fucks off after that

#

because i need a companion quest for her yesterday

dusky wave
#

Mycenaean Boytoy DROP

  • Merged new hue / colour / purity thingy that better matches SDR hues whilst having "INZANNNE COLOURS" that look good
  • GTAO distance based scaling (for AO application for far distant meshes)
  • Shadow reworking, no longer black ink fries grass and shadowing should have more image stability (Still need to implement PCSS, This is needed so cascade shadowmaps properly diffuse as they move further away from the base instead of having the same uniformity throughout)
  • Reworked Tech Test look to work with macleod boynton
gloomy tulip
#

SSR halo 🙁

gloomy tulip
#

Hmm so after a lot of testing, it seems like in vulkan vsync is broken, it forces the game refreshes at your target fps. If you use FPS limiter, it will create insane frame pacing issue, even though frame time graph is flat

#

Seems like the only thing to fix that is to use nvidia's vsync then limit game fps with both nvidia and addon

grizzled herald
#

And it gets way worse if you add FG.

gloomy tulip
#

Yeah I got tons of jittering pacing when paning the camera just because my monitor isnt 120hz XD

grizzled herald
#

We've been discussing that here #1416126383977005146 message

#

So maybe that jitter you describe is this that I felt. Like it's "smooth" but inconsistent.

gloomy tulip
#

I think just vsync alone from nv panel works

gloomy tulip
gloomy tulip
#

Reflex doesnt work in vulkan as expected

SSR can eat perf worse than RT

#

same goes for any screenspaced effect

whilst still having all the limitations compared to worldspace RT

sturdy osprey
#

I would like nanite, so that i wouldnt have to look at the lod popin nonsense

dusky wave
#

Good thing you can have both nanite and lod popin anyways

i'd love rt reflections so i wouldn't have to die to ssrslop

Ambient Conclusion

safe swallow
#

it definitely concluded

#

that's why it's not present

dusky wave
#

except for Wuling

#

they 500% AO gamma there

sudden nest
fleet socket
#

i think they are just conflating graphics with art direction

sudden nest
#

the guy below said ambient conclusion soooo

dusky wave
#

UE = bad
Everything else = good

#

except when Kevin tells us its also bad

sudden nest
#

there is some truth, wuwa ue is kinda uhhh lets say heavy

fleet socket
#

hence the typo

sudden nest
#

Could be, he does mention color later

dusky wave
#

Very good colour

#

very professional;

strong vault
#

I wonder if he meant OG or remakes kekpepehands

dusky wave
#

well it cant be the demakes

#

becasue those use UE

#

demakes also suffer from anti soul gas

#

I have the meme

#

let me find it

strong vault
#

It was so painful to play rebirth

#

I dont think I ever played a game so poor techincally

#

And I played lots of falcom games heihachiPlasma

dusky wave
#

falcom games are actual memes

#

they use gamma 2.3

#

wtf is that

#

where can I get a display that uses gamma 2.3

fleet socket
#

when u made a typo 10 years ago and no one ever bothered to fix it

strong vault
dusky wave
#

looks exactly like when you view the albedo pass

#

with no lighting

#

no ao

strong vault
#

This is so accurate that it hurts

strong vault
#

Endfield with Forge upgrades shits on it gigachad

fleet socket
#

this looks so much better. thank god endfield can do it natively with their DoF 🙏

safe swallow
#

finally, ambient conclusion

strong vault
stable lava
#

it's sharp though

sudden nest
strong vault
#

Crisp

dusky wave
#

I am pissing myself

#

ambient conclusion

#

To be fair, that does sound like a potential graphics based technique

#

but the whole phrase is funny

#

"The ambient conclusion in Endfield is very good, Wuwa doesnt have it"

#

The whole unity glazing is insane coming from Endfield

#

just becasue hoyoslop has genshin

#

which looks like a 7th gen game

#

Everyone is all of a sudden surprised Unity can actually be used to make something decent

#

(lets just ignore 720p SSR,GTAO, DOF and wobble wobble for a sec)

#

oh and those LODs

#

and the mem leak

#

and non funcitonal Reflex in VK (issue with every VK game)

sudden nest
#

also vram leak

brittle abyss
dusky wave
#

You know what

#

I will want to do some work on BG3

strong vault
dusky wave
#

becasue Alexnaders GI solution in that game is kino

#

and we have the same camera perspective so the limitations arent that big

woeful raven
#

When it comes on

dusky wave
#

Thats Lazorr slop

woeful raven
#

Londonfogslop kino

dusky wave
#

Lazorr is the prince of UEsloppas

woeful raven
#

Actually maple might be on it

dusky wave
woeful raven
#

She got like hw lumen

#

And vsm working in beta

#

Its just settings locked tho

#

We dont need to overhaul grafix like endfield

#

Just need to get working hdr

brittle abyss
dusky wave
#

The default SSAO is dogshit

#

and REST BG3 xegtao only works with DLAA

#

but it also fuks perf

#

randomly it will just drop by 50fps

#

it was caused by some hook onto the UI

brittle abyss
#

You just summarized my whole problem with current situation...

dusky wave
#

Gosh added shadow casting for BG3 which was kino

strong vault
#

It destroyed my CPU

dusky wave
#

I helped out with testing it

strong vault
#

But it was looking so good

dusky wave
#

wonder if I could fix perf

#

this is the issue with these sloppas

#

they were never built around shadow casting in mind

#

so when you enable it

#

they just destroy perf

strong vault
#

It was actually "fine" till I hit last light inn

#

I was like getting 30 to 40 there with 5700X

dusky wave
#

Now the question is if I want to do it for DX11 or VK

#

VK has FG support

#

that or we do a full Luma

#

but Reno now has renderpass aswell

brittle abyss
#

Current build of reno is dx11 I fear

#

For bg3

dusky wave
#

I really want to try my hand at doing a full POE2 graphics port

#

theres a bunch of good techniques that Alexander has mentioned in papers

#

and both games have the same isometric view

brittle abyss
#

Who needs to pay chinese kids 5 cents a day to build GPUs, when Forge is already fixing gaming for free !

#

So I would make it also screenspaced using BG3 probes

#

since the camera angle doesnt require worldspace that much

#

You can exponentially increase the amount of rays you cast for barely any increase in perf cost

#

No random noise

#

No typical RT limitations from low sample / rays amount

#

No need for a denoiser

sturdy osprey
#

last time i remember the type of lighting poe2 uses wouldnt work for first person game

dusky wave
#

He's gotten it to work with full worldspace data now

#

and for it to also work in 3rd person 1 person camera perspectives

#

but yh, its very fast and cheap perf wise in POE 2 becasue of the fixed camera isometric angle

#

This means you dont have to use worldspace

#

Guess what other game uses isometric view... BG3

#

granted, the camera isnt 100% fixed. Cutscenes and dialogue

strong vault
#

Would be better than whatever is in place i guess

dusky wave
#

BG3 has nothing

#

baked lighting

#

which is why every modded location / modded area I have seen worked on

#

looks like dookie

#

(Modders arent that great at baking / manually setting up lighting)

#

vanilla SSAO is also garbage

brittle abyss
#

At least during exploration

dusky wave
#

Anyone who uses Ersh's camera mod to play the game in 3rd person like its a Bioware game.... will just have to cope

#

the LODs are abysmal

#

the game wasnt designed for 3rd person

strong vault
dusky wave
#

you see abysmal pop in all over the place

strong vault
#

AC Shadows used RTGI for this very reason

brittle abyss
dusky wave
#

meanwhile Byberpunk

#

take the worse looking user generated area

#

turn on pathtracing

#

looks good

sturdy osprey
#

can you even bake anything with bg3 toolkit

dusky wave
#

Moonglasses has unlocked more stuff

#

but I havent checked up on it in a while

dusky wave
#

I dunno

#

I only play mouse and keyboard

#

but 3rd person view was dogshit

rustic echo
#

That's why modders love their 5090~ enough vram to unslop, and enough power to RT the world...at 6x MFG

dusky wave
#

becasue draw distance is bad

#

and so are lods

#

you see pop in every 2 metres

brittle abyss

sturdy osprey
#

should have used mesh shaders

but Endfield GI....

sturdy osprey
#

what GI

rustic echo
#

Gilberta's story is the only one with some GI added somewhere

dusky wave
#

Thats it

#

Maybe some tech demo

#

abysmal really

#

hmm Assass creed shadows

#

since they use virtualised geo

#

@woeful raven imagine we had to support 5 apis

woeful raven
#

But no

#

Legacyslop

dusky wave
#

VK does have better CPU perf in act 3

#

but you could have improved that in DX11 anyways

#

Witcher 3 has a bigger city with more NPCs

#

or just DX12

#

but nooo

#

NOOO LODs??????

#

lmaoooooooo, he even mentioned that this setting was a pure placebo

#

HyperGryph must have learnt from Sven because their HLODs look as abysmal as Larians

bruh no instanced rendering no shit its so cpu intensive

#

There are 3 ps5 exclusives because of development costs I assume

#

Since you already made the game you can just gain more money by porting to PC

dusky wave
#

only to try and make 13 GAAS sloppas

#

then realised theyre all slop

#

and shut down nearly all of them

#

Instead of I dunno, working on making actual good exclusives

#

abysmal lighting

#

before / after on them adding their doo doo rimlighting to characters

#

makes characters glow

#

I HATE HERO LIGHTING

Theres a mod I used that removed that rim lighting

#

Instant immersion booster

#

grass also doesnt cast shadows

strong vault
#

Slop city

they made some foliage cast shadows

Do we know definitively they wont be updating the game anymore?

#

I do not want to bother with rendering stuff if its still going to recieve hotfixpatch #64123426346234346

#

Dreadful

strong vault
#

I think they teased a bug fix patch?

woeful raven
#

Like everything

#

U only hate if its slop implemented

#

Its time to bring up my favorite game

DS2

#

OK the rimlighting here is used for cinematic effect

#

and works

#

but every other game is shit

#

they use it for 'visibility'

woeful raven
dusky wave
#

but it looks shit

woeful raven
#

Stupid af

#

Edge/rim lighting is use in like probably over half the shot in wuwa

#

And shits just peak

#

Why is it even in gameplay is

#

Wtf

woeful raven
#

I just remember

#

I dont think the devs ever intended the edge lighting to ever be this peak

#

Its just reno deegs happy accident

#

Ok yea its still there in sdr but not as good as if u had in reno

dusky wave
#

Endmin glazing is actually propaganda by the big three of the civilization band to obscure / hide some crazy truth

#

Future story about to cook

fleet socket
#

i actually believed they were doing that before i learned they rewrote all the gritty stuff out and replaced it with glaze

#

i still think they are to an extent but i doubt it's going to be anything super crazy or extreme

dusky wave
#

Ardashir is le bad because of a happening up Norf 150 years ago with Le Endmin

#

but acktually Ardashir is being manipulated

fleet socket
#

i really hope the feedback they get from the surveys is strong enough for them to change course again to something more similar to the old writing

#

like im sorry but i refuse to believe that endfield industries never did anything fucked up at least once

#

It's interesting how a lot of the notes kinda show there is a gritty subtext going on

#

Like the one that talked about how originium absorbed all the oil on Terra, and that oil was safer than originium

dusky wave
#

Thats nearly every game nowadays

#

they cook heat in the notes and lore outside of gameplay

#

meanwhile actual in-game story is a wet fart

#

Destiny did this exact shit

#

Heat in the outside lore that you need to access their website for

#

meanwhile in-game is a wet fart

#

Destiny's original concept was also a gritty dark pseudo medieval future fantasy setting

#

that got turned into marvel ahh writing

#

Hashem... grant me the power to force devs to stick to their original visions

#

BG3 as well

spiral imp
#

ig cuz it's safer

#

make main story luke warm so everyone is happy

#

make lore interesting so those who bother reading get good tidbits

gloomy tulip
runic dove
#

more people playing the game, and for the dedicated fanbase, its increased engagement with the game there

spiral imp
#

it's common enough that it's probably correct

#

No... Me and Spiwar added Birus

#

Will steal credit card info

#

I think HG is more likely to fuck up then we are

#

The whole paypal happening

dusky wave
#

fella probably died waiting for my cum glass fix

#

or gib me perms and I will do it

#

Add these SDR pics for comparison

#
  • cum glass bug fix for flickering
  • Improved shadows further
  • Improved GTAO with vis bit mask, deferred AO modulation, distant scaling
  • All the new mcdonalds bottom code
  • Added tech test look
  • Bug fixes
#

Change title to RenoDX HDR + Super duper rendering improvements NOT A RESHADE PRESET

gloomy tulip
#

This part's lighting looks really strange despairge

gloomy tulip
#

So dark even in SDR

dusky wave
#

Noticed this as well

#

Theyre trying to emulate the look of a dark storm

#

but the eye adaptation shader also randomly kicks in

#

and darkens the scene further

woeful raven
#

Updated goonbanana site

dusky wave
#

Saw

#

ty

#

you can go to bed now

#

Now we wait for the monie to roll in

#

and a trillion comments about how the addon causes crashes

#

(user ran vulkan)

woeful raven
#

ya i just saw that

#

can't read

#

if u have a donation link

#

i can also put that in

#

the link list

dusky wave
#

ehhh

#

I dont do donations

rustic echo
#

except it shouldn't even crash on vulkan now...probably even worse things the user f-ed up

dusky wave
woeful raven
#

it was a pita but i was able to set it up

rustic echo
#

when i ran it on vulkan, it just tried to dx12 on dx11 due to the reshade

woeful raven
#

while being appropriately bored

woeful raven
#

GOONgoto need additional instructions

#

i'll add that in

#

people on goon banana is almost guaranteed to be using goongoto now that it works on endfield

rustic echo
#

Gilberta without cloak is...trending

dusky wave
#

and all the gooner models

#

I saw a 2B skin for lavacake

#

very based

woeful raven
#

half a year

#

until a goon banana game page

#

gets some half decent

#

skin mods

#

that is not gooner

#

right now the least goon one is this

dusky wave
#

I saw 3 that were goodish

#

2B

#

One for perlica

woeful raven
dusky wave
woeful raven
rustic echo
#

those are probably going to get you banned more likely then reno...

woeful raven
#

i would be using these

#

but the GTAO full res dll won't work

#

so im not using skin mods for now

woeful raven
dusky wave
#

oh ripppppp

#

gooners cant use full res GTAO

#

lmao

#

ogre

woeful raven
#

gang shit impact has skin mods for eternity now

#

same with wuwa

rustic echo
#

didn't Genshin get a couple of user banned cause of skin mods...cause hoyo likes to sell their own skins?

gloomy tulip
glacial kayak
#

ATP just rewrite the entire game in dx12

woeful raven
#

users will read the bolded yellow text, right?

#

...right?

dusky wave
gloomy tulip
dusky wave
#

Make a new paradigm

#

Like how Elizabeth from bioshock pushed gooners

#

or how Nier automata is responsible for everything from SK to DXVK

woeful raven
#

I'll need some SDR comparison shots

dusky wave
#

Those are SDR

#

the above

woeful raven
#

and probably an HDR video that tonemaps well to SDR to showcase the difference

dusky wave
#

I used SKIV

dusky wave
woeful raven
#

inb4

dusky wave
#

too big

#

beeg

woeful raven
#

"oh this is just a reshade process slapping some slop AO in"

dusky wave
#

Miru heihachiPlasma

#

His is reshade AO slop

#

custom

#

but still reshade

#

🤣

#

ours is 'native'

#

Adding in native SSR and GTAO and DoF full screen UAVs into the addon itself would be kino though

woeful raven
#

I'll need to add a fat text

#

saying OFF

#

RenoDX

#

wghere is dlss resampling

#

abysmal

gloomy tulip
#

This normalmap threshold lighting is weird

dusky wave
#

You noticed it as well

#

so I wasnt insane

#

yes wtf is that

glacial kayak
dusky wave
#

I thought it was Blackwell forced AF red artefact bug

#

but it was still happening to me when I disabled AF

#

I just couldnt figure out what it was

gloomy tulip
#

Its just the anime style shading doesnt mix well with high frequency normal mapping

#

The lighting color is biased to deeper red depending on the light and normal vector

#

So PBR doesnt work well with custom lighting like that

#

Oh yeah the texture resolution is bad too

dusky wave
#

crunchy block compression

#

bad texture res

#

normalmap threshold bad

#

ahhhh

woeful raven
#

oh

#

we have a nexusmods now

#

guess I upload that one too

dusky wave
woeful raven
#

are you on clang on ninja

dusky wave
#

Clang

#

ripp

#

let me do ninja

woeful raven
#

ya just slop out a ninja build

dusky wave
#

so Nexuoids dont report birus

gloomy tulip
#

im on msvc XD

gloomy tulip
dusky wave
#

Hoyo was playing the long game

gloomy tulip
#

Also I didn't encounter conference video freeze anymore, maybe it was a fluke back then I had with vulkan

dusky wave
gloomy tulip
#

And framepacing isnt bad after using driver vsync + fps limiter

dusky wave
#

why is it smaller

#

ahhh its becasue I did Release build

#

Nexooooos users dont need debug its fine

gloomy tulip
dusky wave
#

Sounds about gacha

#

they all love fukking with UI

#

Wuwa constantly turning reflex on and off

#

proccs CTDs

woeful raven
dusky wave
#

Forgium

#

how dafuq do i have 1000 endorsements

#

probably from when I shared mythical knowledge during my Beth days

dusky wave
woeful raven
#

nexus uploaded

gloomy tulip
#

For me its a flatline unless new shader pipeline appears

gloomy tulip
#

(Do not use adaptive or fast vsync in driver)

dusky wave
#

Duplicate slop

#

fix NOOOW

woeful raven
#

nexus slop

#

it didnt appear when i was uploadeding

dusky wave
#

it uses the before pic

woeful raven
#

i just saw that as well

#

I'll try deleting all images

#

oh

#

it changed

#

AFTER I ALREADY DELETED the images

#

now i have to upload aghain

dusky wave
#

Nexoooos be like

woeful raven
#

aight

#

guess that's up

#

now just need a video or sth

dusky wave
#

PEAK JUST DROPPED

woeful raven
#

we need GTAO res boost working with xxmi asap

dusky wave
#

Add it into Reno

#

We have RenderPass

strong flare
#

Is the renodx mod working?

#

I think I dont understand the instructions

#

Game keeps crashing

#

This is the error

rustic echo
#

i see...d3d11 in there

#

that's a no no

strong flare
#

What is it supposed to be?

rustic echo
#

well what are you launcing with...that's a strange error

woeful raven
#

3dmigoto dll is named d3d11.dll

rustic echo
#

oh 3dmigoto again

woeful raven
#

if you see that interface

#

its a goongoto user

strong flare
strong flare
#

I downloaded the latest zip

woeful raven
#

seems like a you issue

#

this launches fine

serene bridge
#

wuwa zzz in endfield heihachiPlasma

rustic echo
#

well difference is I see is reshade isn't in the game folder between those screenshots

rustic echo
#

i don't suppose that matters to the launcher

strong flare
#

my settings

woeful raven
#

dont know mate

#

try running xxmi as admin

#

or something

#

or use normal installation

#

and not portable one

strong flare
#

the msi fails

woeful raven
#

dont know why msi fails on your computer

#

another you issue

#

other settings

#

if that even matters

strong flare
#

hmm how do I stup reshade from attaching to endfield

#

seems to just crash even though I removed the renopdx file

rustic echo
#

if you want to use it without 3dmigoto, just use the pinned instructions, aka rename reshade64.ini to d3d12.dll, along with the standard reshade.fxh

#

and start it the launcher in dx11 mode

strong flare
#

no i want to undo whatever i was trying to do

rustic echo
#

but hmm..

strong flare
#

as in disable reshade entirely

rustic echo
#

remove reshade64.dll, and reshade shader folder

#

if you don't have a reshade shaders folder...then that was probably your issue in the first place

#

reshade also need reshade.fxh i believe

strong flare
#

this is the error
how do i stop that top bar from appearing?

woeful raven
#

LMAO

#

pray tell

rustic echo
#

double reshade?

woeful raven
#

why do you have dxgi.dll in your game folder

strong flare
#

i dont know

rustic echo
#

well there's your problem

strong flare
#

i am unfamiliar with this process

woeful raven
#

delete that file

strong flare
#

and came here for help

rustic echo
#

ah ya, you probably had reshade installed then another to inject

#

delete the dxgi.dll, and everything spri has likely will work

woeful raven
#

the instructions doesn't say run the reshade installer

#

anyways

strong flare
#

ok so i deleted dxgi

woeful raven
#

delete the dxgi.dll in your game folder

strong flare
#

now i put reshade 64 in there

rustic echo
woeful raven
#

dont think so

rustic echo
#

then that's only for bypass i guess?

woeful raven
#

we're just using reshade to load the addon

rustic echo
#

kk

strong flare
#

anything else i should get rid of here?

#

i added Reshade64 dll and renodx

rustic echo
#

you're good

strong flare
#

i see other Reshade files
