Then you’ll get 90 ish with front edge

knotty apex
#

Most of the time I just use the in-game reflex setting or ullm if reflex is not available + vsync on (forced on if Im using dlss fg)

fickle dust
mental glen
#

It’s just a setting for the fps graph

wet kiln
#

Did they just update the game today? Game keeps crashing as soon as "checking addons" pops up at the start right before main menu 🫤

mental glen
#

It doesn’t change anything about the limiter function

#

Unless I’m regarded

fickle dust
wet kiln
#

Fml...I was about to try out insanity mode zz

fickle dust
#

you can always disable framework and renodx until update comes

knotty apex
#

yes that setting is only for the osd graph if youre using it

#

this setting controls the rtss limiter

image.png
fickle dust
#

so if rtss says fps limit to 114 and ingame reflex caps it at 116 which one is correct

knotty apex
#

and this controls the behavior of reflex injections

image.png
#

rtss will override since it's lower

#

it does that on purpose because it can pace a little more precisely than reflex

fickle dust
#

so I keep the 114

#

the inject thingy is auto for me

#

that correct ?

knotty apex
#

yes, though again i feel like just not messing with reflex + vsync on is fine in most cases

#

especially in this game

fickle dust
knotty apex
#

up to you if you actually notice the slightly worse pacing in vrr, i often don't

fickle dust
#

what a drag tbh

#

wish we had a set and forget

knotty apex
#

i would yeah, i rarely use rtss these days

#

the set and forget method is just reflex + vsync lol

wet kiln
#

Using this screwed my blacks up (black looked greyish)

knotty apex
#

so for this game in particular i just did everything with ingame reflex set to on+boost and vsync forced on for the game profile in nvcp since i was using dlss fg

#

it would stutter sometimes and make my oled flicker due to traversal or whatever but a more precise limiter wouldn't fix that

wet kiln
#

Did you try the newest hotfix driver? It fixed the flickering for me (never had stuttering though) but introduced slight ghosting instead - I had to set dlss on balanced and it's much less evident with higher fps

knotty apex
#

i platted the game before some of those updates landed

#

will jump back in when they add new content though

wet kiln
#

Definitely try it soon. Frame pacing is also better and smoother on the hotfix driver

is capcom actively trying to make reframework not work or is it just a consequence of updating

solid shale
#

me too bro a RR update is a must, espeically with all the new games using RR in the next few months like Control resonant, etc

winged apex
#

The only thing you can do to improve quality is using output scaling via optiscaler

#

It made a big improvement in re9 for a small cost

fickle dust
winged apex
#

It lets you arbitrarily change the target output resolution for dlss and it’s downsampled back to your native

#

You can search in this thread it was discussed before

fickle dust
winged apex
#

Doesnt matter what you’re running

opaque tide
#

oh i still have the old files thankfully

#

any idea what latest update did

#

apart from what the site wrote

#

already have the hotfix installed so prob not much

#

i see some PT issues fixed but not sure what are the issues

i wish there was a way to equip the lighter with grace in later areas because it looks really cool and it's only used for a small section 😔

Adaptive triggers? Something else? What did the update add 👀

wet kiln
#

There's no patch note to be found sadly so not sure what changed. I finished the game about 10-11 hours ago and reframe was still working, booted it again 3-4 hours after and game kept crashing

Assuming if my game auto-updated im cooked until REF releases an update?

Reframe breaking with each patch has been an ongoing issue for everyone, like huh? Are you ok buddy? And the game didn't even have an "update" button with blue background so I didn't even know there was one. Go pick a bone somewhere, buddy.

unique snow
#

post a negative review on steam and mention it, only way they ever listen.

#

also use the survey they sent out and give feedback there

fickle dust
#

ok it finally worked

#

this is the correct depot you need to download to make the game work again with reframework if u updated

#

download_depot 3764200 3764203 5563925408499865260

#

you let it download for a few seconds just so it can produce the exe file, grab it and replace the same exe in re9 steam folder

#

close steam and reopen so you dont download the whole 80 gigs

#

tried to upload the exe here but I get blocked

#

anyway good luck ;p

opaque tide
#

is the new renodx file is compatible with the previous patch?

#

i haven't update yet

unkempt seal
#

yes and basically the default settings are good. you shouldn't be touching that AFAIK.

#

someone had the perfect gif

inland topaz
#

Has there been patch notes yet?

#

Calling that a big improvement is wild kek

winged apex
#

I did dlss Q with x3 and it was an improvement, the only time I was ever bothered by denoiser issues is some of the very dark areas as Leon where the denoiser could not cope

#

and a few times as grace on her hands when holding a gun in dark spots

unkempt seal
mental glen
#

I even tried DLAA

#

I was doing like 12k output res

#

Still ass

winged apex
#

because after a certain point there's diminishing returns and DLAA barely helps

mental glen
#

Yeah barely helps is the issue

#

I’ll wait for RR 4.5

#

If that means waiting a year so be it

#

I have time and a big backlog

winged apex
#

increasing the bounces from 2 to 5 also helped

mental glen
#

That sounds insanely expensive

winged apex
#

it's not

and 5 is the max that the engine registers

That has other issues tho

winged apex
#

ibl setting worsens visuals

polar summit
#

That’s just not true

winged apex
#

it is

polar summit
#

It actually improves it in certain scenes

#

There is like a part at the start of the game that looks worse

#

But thats like so insignificant

polar summit
winged apex

off

#

shading in wrong areas

#

materials affected too

#

its literally causing light leaking and other shit

polar summit
#

huh

inland topaz
#

Genuinely one of the best I’ve ever played

mental glen
#

Which makes it even more sad to block it from other stores

winged apex
#

people on U+ are just kind of stupid sometimes thinking they know better than the developers by fucking with the PT settings, potentially seeing an improvement in one place, but in reality it's mostly broken

#

same with half the people there promoting using the radiance cache which is even worse lol

polar summit

i struggle to see a meaningful difference there

why is this box glowing

#

Genuinely a creature from space wearing a skin suit I think

polar summit
winged apex
#

these boxes are covered in a shiny material

#

and the shading stops working when you turn off IBL

#

how are you so confused

mental glen
polar summit
#

even if that lighting is slightly more accurate as you say

#

the trade off im motion is absurd

#

and shouldn't be made

Nah

now moving the goalpost

whatever

Im not gonna change how the pt looks either

polar summit

there are plenty of more comparison shots in the u+ discord

#

make up your own mind

And that needs

DAMNNNN

#

I guess ill be turning IBL off

winged apex
#

you reversed them

polar summit
#

are you dumb

dense sapphire
#

no he didn't lol

unkempt seal
dense sapphire
#

both the images and labels are reversed

polar summit
#

just put them in a different order but they're labled correctly

dense sapphire
#

so it doesn't matter

unkempt seal
#

@polar summit do you have more examples? I'm curious on what it's doing

polar summit
#

under the stairs the corners look better with it on*

#

but the rest of the image loses tons of detail

dense sapphire
#

I noticed in the warehouse that small rocks and rubble on the ground actually had visible shadows with IBL off, with IBL on they weren't visible

polar summit
#

🤷‍♂️

#

screenshots don't do the differences justice either

dense sapphire
#

it really just depends on the scene, but to say the default is always more accurate is just wrong

polar summit
#

it's a wash over the whole game visually, except like a grace moment at the start of the game imo

#

but it off helps an insane amount for ghosting

winged apex
#

can saves be transferred in this game

polar summit
#

I think so

winged apex
#

i mostly overwrote my saves so I don't have one in that area

polar summit

I have saves everywhere in the game from my speed run

Can't DM them, I don't have nitro

#

I'm sure you'll find places where ibl on looks better but i found it to be a wash throughout the game 🤷‍♂️

the biggest difference was in motion

excuse me what is ibl and how do I turn it on or off

winged apex

yeah other ppl saves don't work

there is a discord link if you scroll down a bit

is this what I download >?

the highest pinned msg

#

also what settings do u use apart from IBL off ? @polar summit are there any ready made presets or I need to do everything myself

polar summit
#

the way it looks in the screenshot is how it should look if you want to have it off

#

it is on by default

fickle dust
#

so what does this ultra mod do even

#

other than this ibl thing

polar summit
#

well its under ultra minus for a reason

#

it just exposes a bunch of settings to tweak

#

The questions are better directed there tho

fickle dust
#

the game without ultra mod has ibl on by default yes ?

polar summit
#

correct

fickle dust
#

i see tyy

polar summit

even with it installed it's still on by default afaik

Ehh, I don't have the file anymore, but it's still up on Nexus. You'll also need another app that can decrypt and encrypt save files plus the person's Steam ID

pliant maple
# regal needle Has there been any new updates to Requiem? Game was running fine, updated the RE...

Yes, the game was updated today and the update broke REFramework. The update doesn’t seem to add anything useful, so I would advise to not download it or to rollback to the previous version until REFramework is updated. Also, change the option in steam for the game (or any capcom RE Engine game TBH) to update when you launch the game, and if you see an update just go to offline mode until mods are stable with the patch

All that matters is "are you having fun?"

#

Is 90 fps no fg better than 117 fps with 2x fg at 4k dlss Q (120hz screen)?

green zenith
fickle dust
#

When is FG a consideration?

inland topaz
#

Lower the base frame rate, the worse frame gen is

fickle dust
#

My base is around 90

inland topaz
#

So it works well at pushing you into very high fps ranges

fickle dust
#

With dlss q

inland topaz
#

You’re only going from 90 to 117 with fg?

fickle dust
#

Yes cuz reflex caps it to that

inland topaz
#

Ah so yeah don’t use it there

#

Because with fg you’re real fps cap is actually half

#

Half of those 117 are generated

#

So you’re input has no effect

#

So actually you’re getting 58/59 fps

fickle dust
#

It’s a lg c1 tv with 5090 and 9800x3d

#

On re9

inland topaz
#

Pt?

fickle dust
#

Pt on everything max

inland topaz
#

Yeah if you’re holding 90 consistently, just leave it at that

fickle dust
#

On 4k is dlss Q and Balance big diff ?

#

Quality wise

inland topaz
#

With the newer models, it’s hard to tell unless you know what to look for

#

It also varies game by game because some devs use internal resolution and others use output to calculate some effects

#

God of war ragnarok for example looks pretty bad as you go down to balanced and performance because they use a percentage of internal resolution for reflections instead of a percentage of output resolution

fickle dust
#

So if my monitor was like 240 and my base was 120 or so then fg would make sense ?

inland topaz
#

Unless you’re somewhere near 60, in which case 2x is fine

fickle dust
#

What about reflex vs boost

inland topaz
#

But for 90 fps, you’re gonna trade a little bit of smoothness for proportionally much higher latency

fickle dust
#

Actually I am in the basement as grace and i get around 83ish

#

Hmm

#

Maybe drop to balance

inland topaz
#

It’s safe to just turn on boost imo

#

Unless you’re really concerned about saving 12 cents a month on your power bill lol

inland topaz
#

Model M performance is kinda absurdly good

#

Or you could go the other way and do DLAA with 2x, but idk what frame rate you’d get with dlaa

fickle dust
#

I am forcing preset E with RR

inland topaz
#

Ohhh rr right

#

Forgot

fickle dust
#

Don’t ask

#

45 fps with 5090 on dlaa

inland topaz
#

TL;DR if you’re using framegen, calculate your fps cap taking the reflex cap and dividing it by your frame gen multiplier

#

So 116/2 =58 actual fps

#

So you’ll lower your real fps with fg(which is what matters for how the input feels) but it’ll look a bit smoother

inland topaz
fickle dust
#

Ngl I dont see a diff between balance and quality

#

At least on 4k

polar summit
#

did they actually improve the ghosting in the last patch

#

or am I tripping

wary sierra
#

Wonder if Crimson Desert will get a RenoDX treatment, since it seems to be a looker too - especially night scenes.

was anyone able to figure out if this patch actually did anything

green zenith
#

It’s better to choose more aggressive upscaling for me rather than frame gen

dense sapphire
pliant maple
# green zenith Smoother but with additional artifacts. It’s not very bad with newer models, but...

MFG 4x is useful for people with 240Hz displays or above. You target 70fps before enabling frame gen to get the motion smoothness of 240fps at the cost a slightly higher latency compared to the original 70fps + the artifacts that comes from the generated frames. In a more organized way: You need a base of 70 real fps that will probably drop down to 60fps because of the cost of generating those frames, then the frame gen does its work but the display has to be capable of accepting those generated frames or it will negatively result in more generated frames:

2x: 120Hz or above
3x: 180Hz or above
4x: 240Hz or above
5x: 300Hz or above
6x: 360Hz or above

For example if you are at 100fps real frames and you turn frame gen 2x in a 120Hz display, the cost of frame gen will drop the fps to 90fps but the display cannot accept 180fps, so it will drop the real frames from 90 to 60 in order to generate frames to the 120fps target. You would notice a big difference in latency (100 real frames vs 60 real frames + frame gen input latency). Real frames will always be better than generated frames, but generated frames are useful to smooth the camera movements and motion in tough to render games above 60fps when a display of 120Hz or above is used.

If I miss a file and want to get the “read all files” challenge, can I do it in a new play through if I read the one missing file or do I need all files all over again ?

feels kinda weird to have the default shadow contrast be 42 lol

figure it would just be 50

fierce wedge
#

The purist preset is if you want accurate

#

I thought that was too contrasty

sonic musk
#

tbh both sRGB and BT709 match in SDR with the proper EOTF, so I think the vanilla HDR is more correct than not
UI was probably done by a different team
The purist preset with the second LUT scaling maxed out and SDR emu off matches BT709 with the 2.4 EOTF
And sRGB with sRGB EOTF

This is ELI5

sweet estuary

Damn

polar summit
#

But it’s like so ugly in this game

What’s the point of 2.4 gamma which displays use it?

waxen schooner

just bought the game, hyped to see what you guys did to it

polar summit
#

Vanilla hdr reminded me of aw2 a lot actually

small igloo
sonic musk
#

And the luts not being scaled properly

waxen schooner
polar summit
#

BT709 is commonly used for creator work which specifies 2.4 gamma

#

Afaik 2.4 gamma is also meant for darker viewing environments

#

While 2.2 and sRGB for brighter

fierce wedge
#

The lut scaling is just a hack to add more contrast

#

Their LUTs are using acescc

#

Which clips blacks

#

So I add back some contrast

polar summit
fierce wedge
#

They add more contrast afterwards anyway

polar summit
#

Ah right

fierce wedge
#

Idk I think they just like crushed

#

The re2 trailer looks horrific

polar summit

I mean yea i get it i also like it crushed sometimes lmao

#

But make it black then

sweet estuary
sonic musk
fierce wedge
#

The vanilla hdr has higher exposure than SDR

#

I forgot to check how it compares to bt709 option

sonic musk
#

I don't mean exposure

fierce wedge
#

So for vanilla hdr

#

If you remove the paper white slider that it has

#

You end up with an image that’s brighter

#

Which is baked into the LUTs

#

So you’d have to make the paper white slider less than 1.0

sonic musk
fierce wedge
#

To get it to line up with SDR at 100 nits

#

Which would end up resulting in lower exposure leading into the lutbuilder

#

So more clipped stuff

#

Idk shit is weird

#

They baked stuff into LUTs

#

And by stuff it’s probably just literally aces

sonic musk
fierce wedge
#

Ya I do ~0.76 exposure but I do it inside the lutbuilder. The input to the lutbuilder I make match up

#

I sort of had to hack stuff to get it to match up

#

The upper midtones

#

Are also dimmer compared to sdr

#

In their tonemapping

#

So I add a little bit of a highlight boost

Anyway the vanilla hdr is probably closer to the bt709 encoding option in sdr

The first one is SDR BT709 with G2.4 decode

But I haven't had a chance to test after Capcom patched the game so I don't know if my install is also borked right now

Anyone have a bunch of default hdr to renodx comparisons for this game?

my friend is getting a oled and he likes this game so i wanted to show him some but i don't have the game.

I was asking Clara if it was a Linux update that borked Reshade for them or if it was like that prior

does reframework have some toggle that fixes the low res depth of field?

sweet estuary

sonic musk

I dunno if it even do anything

But in the other games it helped with the banding, so I fugured it can't hurt

polar summit

Might show in specific moments like film damage does, dunno

fierce wedge
#

in previous games the toggle called film grain controlled that noise parameter

but now they have a separate film grain parameter

so thats probably unused

# fierce wedge I slapped dithering on at the end but that ended up smearing. This shader runs b...

lmao so I found the following

  1. hardware trilinear sampling so shit pixelation (this is what tricubic b-spline fixes)

  2. inscatter uses RGB radiance directly for the voxels, interpolation tends to have make errors highly visible (I have opacity aware tricubic filtering to solve)

  3. one of the textures also uses hardware trilinear sampling so gets cooked again (use tricubic)

  4. 8bit quant for albedo and emissive. probably primary source of banding which is why upgrades didnt help, shader code itself is cooked

  5. has a rangeCompress which squashes everything even further

  6. has no dither or stochastic noise

fierce wedge
#

Rangecompress value is just 1

rich smelt
#

it doesnt get lower?

fierce wedge
#

The dithering I slapped on at the end fucked with denoising

rich smelt
#

in that case it should do anything worse

fierce wedge
#

Where I tested it I got 1.0

rich smelt
#

yes because it doesnt need dither

fierce wedge
#

So it did nothing

rich smelt
#

it need stochastic noise

fierce wedge
#

And I tested it at the worst area

rich smelt
#

that matches jitter

#
  • and a + makes 2 + type deal
#

basically you need tricubic b-spline filtering

#

then remove the 8bit quant

#

IS-FAST noise might not be needed here since it might mess with RR

#

but if you can match the IS-FAST with the base game jitter it uses for RR, DLSS, TAA then it will look better

Finally started playing the game tonight.....Prisoner of the Moment, but with Musa’s RenoDX patch, full path tracing, and max settings on a 5090… this is honestly incredible. The deep black contrast paired with the 2000-nit peak brightness on my display looks absolutely stunning. Add in the Dolby Atmos audio and I couldn’t be more impressed with the overall experience.

Kind of a funny thing, but this preset (and the "preserve shadow detail" preset) is what got me to realize t hat 165hz and VRR were crushing blacks hard in HDR.

My current tv (lg g5) crushes blacks pretty hard but only when 165hz and gsync both are active, but 120hz is fine either with gsync on/off. My monitor (alienware aw2725d) crushes blacks when 240 or 280hz is selected, but it's fine with 165hz. If you select peak 1000 - you get bonus black crush on top of that 😄

There was some janky way of forcing DV mode from PC, mostly to avoid HDR bugs that were present back then, but those are long since fixed.

#

I can't speak of 165Hz though, because I pretty much always play with 120Hz and 60 FPS cap, even if I didn't hate framegen with 2x 120Hz is enough, and 165Hz is not really enough for MFG.

I just use game mode HGIG on the G5 with a peak brightness set to 2000 nits. Maybe I'm leaving peformance on table but it looks great. I also have the G4 at a peak of 1500

That is the point, you asking them to install a tool only made for Reno is extra step, when they can download a single file off Nexus, a platform they know from modding.

I'd say, any copying of files, into proper folders, is not for newbies, especially if they don't even see file extensions,
for newbies is vortex
and for folks who want easy autoupdates of reshade, renodx, dc, is rdxc

#

my point is, it would be useful, helpful to have renodx mods anywhere in github (autobuilds or manual, doesn't matter) for easy autoupdates in rdxc,
it would also be helpful for newbies, as an alternative to vortex,
but ofc if musa prefers not to share his mods in github, it's his choice

if your peers are using it for their writing and you aren't then they look better in a professional setting than you just how it is. You can use it to tweak and not rewrite in addition

Bullshit

I don't use it for in-company emails if it was client facing like proposals I probably would

#

can't help but to think it's turning your brain into mush relying on it

If somebody emails me I want to see their personality

Typos and all

john is posting on bluesky he had no idea

he is not having a good time

it probably will be a toggle like faces, lighting, materials one for each should make most happy

Crossing the Uncanny Valley of Rendering Digital Humans with NVIDIA...

RTX Neural Faces is a new generative AI algorithm that takes a rasterized face and 3D pose and generates an enhanced face in real-time. The high quality of the generated face is achieved via a pipeline that trains on offline-generated images taken at every angle, under different lighting and occlusion conditions, and with different emotive expre...

and he replied to a lot of people

#

I wonder how many different faces we'll be getting on the same character when in actual action, like rotating, different lightining etc and the engine will just be halucinating what it should be rendering

#

plus the added 3 point overexposed lighting on every single character thus mitigating the point of PT is insanity

I think this was just badly written

so you can read it both ways

but it was anti ai slop

Even if he likes saturation boosted HDR it’s just taste, and he had the wherewithal to say since he didn’t know about hdr much and he likes something different he won’t comment on it

he is getting spammed on bluesky

who cares if you weren't informed?

so?

ignore it

sure

stray finch

also he's kind of slagging off his employer

It isn't exactly a nice experience being dogpiled online, and having his own opinions shouldn't = slagging off his employer

stray finch

you can just walk away from it though, you dont have to respond

bit risky tbh, i wouldn't do it if i wanted to remain employed

You kinda have to when your own integrity is being questioned as a tech journalist

NVIDIA GeForce UK (@NVIDIAGeForceUK)

Announcing NVIDIA DLSS 5, an AI-powered breakthrough in visual fidelity for games, coming this fall.

DLSS 5 infuses pixels with photorealistic lighting and materials, bridging the gap between rendering and reality.

Rn it must be so unoptimized they’re using a second gpu for just dlss5

If they can manage to make it respect artistic vision enough

velvet ferry

lol imagine how cursed overrides would be for this. Forcing dlss5 fg into older games. Seems like it’ll need to be built for every game

polar summit
#

I think the naming is a bit cooked

#

Like DLSS 3 being frame generation

#

From what I’ve read so far the ai slop seems to be separate from normal upscaling much like frame gen

#

Not sure tho

velvet ferry
#

I think it’s supposed to be a different frame gen model

polar summit
#

Maybe that yea

heady arch

just give us photorealism already

the ultimate goal is the Matrix simulation, lifelike visuals

# dense sapphire DLSS 5? It's not a fg model

“In fact, DLSS 5 is integrated into frame-gen, which makes sense - after all, using this lighting technique, every frame is now generated. And yet, the quality is there, with few if any of the inconsistencies and mistakes typically seen within photo-realistic generated AI.”

Dunno what this means from https://www.digitalfoundry.net/features/nvidias-new-dlss-5-brings-photo-realistic-lighting-to-rtx-50-series

Nvidia's new DLSS 5 Brings Photo-Realistic Lighting To RTX 50-Series
