this mod is only a gamma fix, not interested in making a full mod, someone else can do that
TL;DR it looks like in an update nixxes borked the gamma cbuffer. The first game blends the ui and scene in srgb and then linearizes with 2.35. For some reason Nixxes set the cbuffer to 1.9 in the first game and miles morales, seems to be the same issue here
first game had crashes with RT enabled if using cbuffers, I think its the same with this game
idk though i don't own it, koklusz sent me the shader dump
need someone to test if it works
@lime holly
just take a screenshot of the main menu with and without the mod

iirc the game cycles through different menu backgrounds so it might take multiple tries to get the same background for a comparison screenshot

that was back when the gamma was working so it should match that

maybe this is a stupid question, but if this mod only fixes gamma, what's the difference between this and something like the lilium's black floor fix?
sorry if this is a noob question but I used to fix hdr gamma mismatch in the past with that shader or with an AHS script which changed my gamma from scrgb to 2.2. is this different in any way?

The mod changes from 1.9 -> 2.35 so it can be done with just the black floor fix shader I think. you’d just have to do that instead of the default srgb -> 2.2 and set the paper white value to the ui brightness slider value
thin swift
The mod changes from 1.9 -> 2.35 so it can be done with just the black floor fix...
I thought part of their messed up implementation was that that it was inconsistent gamma issues?
brave steppe
in spiderman 1 and miles morales its just that the gamma cbuffer was set to 1.9 for some reason
thin swift
Oh odd
thin swift
in spiderman 1 and miles morales its just that the gamma cbuffer was set to 1.9 ...
The analysis page says it’s varied by scene but it could be something else influencing it I suppose
brave steppe
i only ever saw 1.9 in spiderman 1 and miles morales
the tonemapping is also different
and the brightness slider applies before tonemapping
thin swift
@crystal tulip thoughts?
thin swift
and the brightness slider applies before tonemapping
Yeah it’s awesome that I have to kinda just guess what’s 200 paper white and what my peak brightness actually needs to be by staring at the sun for 10 minutes with the analysis shader and tweaking settings
Modern hdr baby! Let’s go!
brave steppe
I probably wouldn't bother with movign the in game brightness slider
it just ends up giving a broken input to the tonemapper by brightening it
thin swift
I probably wouldn't bother with movign the in game brightness slider
the brightness slider at default is 300 paperwhite
so if you dont move you just have to wear sunglasses
or see the worst ABL of my life
brave steppe
i mean use lilium brightness shader
you just need to raise the in game peak to compensate
the brightness doesn't cleanly translate to a paper white value
thin swift
can lilliums brightness do negative?
and even if it doesn't translate evenly, its the only in game way to reduce it at all lol
ill have to look into lilliums then
i guess i could do default with 1500 nits peak with 66% with lilliums or however it scales
brave steppe
can lilliums brightness do negative?
i assume you mean less than 1 but ya
like you can do 0.5
thin swift
i assume you mean less than 1 but ya
yeah idk why i said negative. I just meant moving the birghtness in a negative direction but thats a silly way to phrase it lol
also btw i think this is fine with RT
couple of hours with no crashes
brave steppe
that's what allows for sliders
thin swift
ah gatcha
brave steppe
actually I do have a way to add a disable button for the mod
which just unloads the custom shader entirely
so that should work
thin swift
also btw crazy that you have malware on my pc or something
you put this out right as i started playing the game when ive been thinking about it for months
im onto you

I was given money to do it

This game got butchered with patches. Was able to do a 1440p playthrough at 60fps with high rt on a 5800x and 3090 at launch. By patch 4 or 5, just running any rt causes major frame drops. Even dropping to performance dlss couldn't salvage it for me. Game runs pretty great without rt
Haven't touched it in a while, but I'm assuming rt will still be a no go for me

It’s more than playable on 5070ti+ in 4k, even enjoyable
But still they fucked up with port very much. 1st game and miles morales was pretty good optimized ports. But this one is a complete disaster

Can tone mapping be added, because the game is limited to 1500 nits? The sunbeam is incorrect.

As in it got worse with later patches?
simple ledge
Yeah. Around patch 5 or so, ray tracing performance got nuked for me on a 3090. Prior to that patch, I was able to play 1440p high ray tracing at dlss quality or dlss dynamic res at a locked 60
Now ray tracing causes major drops when I reach the bottom of a swing and get near street level
