Resident Evil Requiem

[last kiln]

prob yeah

i've seen videos about the setup

[frank badge]

Could you share it?

Now i'm in this situation, everything works fine but ref menu doesn't open (not a big problem)

Thank you Dio Brando

Thank you both Snow and nichgo

[unkempt seal]

ignorant question, what is the usecase of dlss enabler? mainly here?

[last kiln]

no clue

i don't watch this

[patent kernel]

Dlss enabler is for using dlss mfg with unsupport device

Something like nukem dllsg to fsr3 but its support mfg

[regal needle]

Just curious. I know most VR headsets aren't OLED. But does Reno work in VR?

[nocturne vine]

@last kiln

[nocturne vine]

PSVR2 is OLED.

And reno can work in VR if you're playing a 2D game, since all the mods are for 2D games.

[regal needle]

Yes, that's why I said most. I was just wondering about Reno and VR

[nocturne vine]

Oh, I skipped that part.

Technically, yes.

[regal needle]

Thank you 🙂

[nocturne vine]

If you're looking to play 2D games in VR, and by that I mean ..

Like flatscreen games, putting it on a screen when in VR space, like a theater experience kinda thing.

I know you can inject SK in SteamVR and shit, so that means ReShade can be injected with it, and ergo, RenoDX, too.

[last kiln]

yeah i saw

[last kiln]

no work

psvr2 doesn't have HDR on pc

in fact steamvr entirely has no HDR

[nocturne vine]

Oh, right. wtf.

[last kiln]

the entire VR ecosystem has no HDR path

[nocturne vine]

idk why I forgot Reno is for HDR

[regal needle]

So Hollow Knight Yes, CyberPunk, No

[nocturne vine]

Yeah, sorry.

No, no HDR on PCVR.

So, you can inject it, but it's not gonna work, be broken.

[last kiln]

it's just gonna be

[nocturne vine]

So, ergo, no work.

[last kiln]

sdr

[regal needle]

Ok, thank you 🙂

[civic cairn]

leaks regarding a potential future RE remake
||Resident Evil Code Veronica Remake is being directed by Kazunori Kadoi & Yasuhiro Anpo, same duo who directed Resident Evil: 2 Remake & Resident Evil: 4 Remake; noted by a leaker (take with grain of salt) Dusk Golem
https://insider-gaming.com/resident-evil-code-veronica-remake-led-by-re2-re4-team-its-claimed||

[dense vortex]

so a leak who is the director of a game is now considered a spoiler huh

[nocturne vine]

No harm in putting a spoiler when in doubt.

[civic cairn]

just there for the purpose of protecting those who would rather find out on their own, or maybe haven't played the game yet and wonder what the future of resident evil is, etc really

[dense vortex]

tbh "spoilers for potential future RE games" makes it sound like some RE10 story details leaked lol

[civic cairn]

eh you got a point

i changed games to remakes

[polar summit]

Spoiler tag text/images if you’re unsure

Even if it’s super minor

[dense vortex]

don't worry, not a big deal, just funny to me, not what I expected when I clicked that spoiler lol

[civic cairn]

appreciate you pointing it out though, i think the adjusted wording now should be work better

i hope photo mode for this game comes out soon

[regal needle]

Goodbye Chunk

[sturdy tide]

You trying to leave IV guy without a job?

[regal needle]

lol yeah I know about that one too 🙂

Poor IV guy

[civic cairn]

Just wanna say thank you Musa again for this RE9 HDR fix, it’s my first game I’ve played in HDR & also made it my favorite Resident Evil. Clocking about 90 hours on this game bc of you 😭

[sweet estuary]

Jfc

[civic cairn]

well some of it is messing with hdr settings and free camming 2 take pics & also trying to platinum

[queen kernel]

i have about 60 with 4 playthroughs, last two on insanity, so lots of dying lol

[dense fjord]

I clicked 'reset all' so which is the better choice to click next? purist or preserve shadow detail?

[unique snow]

imho preserve shadow detail

[civic cairn]

it all is personal preference after setting the peak brightness corresponding to your monitor. reset all defaults to what the creator of the mod thinks is best, purist is an emulation of what is believed to be intended by the developers, and preserve shadow details is basically disabling the 2.2 SDR EOTF emulation to help prevent the (intentional) darkness

could be wrong but yeah

[distant cape]

So if you don't select purist or preserve shadow details- what exaclty is that mode?

[somber field]

display commnader is not anymore?

[granite jungle]

Hello, thanks for this mod!!
Something isn’t working for me – I must have made a mistake – but in the Reshade menu, I adjust the Renodx settings as I want, I’ve disabled and then re-enabled HDR in-game and everything’s fine, but when I restart the game, everything reverts to the default settings. How can I make the changes I’ve applied permanent so I don’t have to change everything every time I restart the game?
Many thanks!!

[fierce edge]

Is there a way to prevent this extreme bloom when using RenoDX? Everything looks great 99% of the time but then I’ll just randomly get the actual sun thrown in my face.

[polar summit]

this isn't RenoDX related, it's an fov fix that affects cutscenes as well

https://www.nexusmods.com/residentevilrequiem/mods/99 use this instead

[fierce wedge]

game folder might be set to read only causing reshade.ini to not save

[granite jungle]

Oh Thanks a lot !!

[fierce edge]

Oh duh, I can’t believe I didn’t think of that. Thank you. I’ve been using the fov slider that’s built into ReFramework, but I’ll check this out

[unique snow]

this one is so much better

[granite jungle]

The game folder was set to read-only; I disabled this setting, launched the game, then restarted the computer, but the folder reverted to read-only. As a result, I can’t save preset 2 and have to change it every time I launch the game.

[fierce wedge]

Is your issue that your settings aren’t saving or that specifically it’s reverting to preset 1

Cause the mod always reverts to preset 1

[granite jungle]

Thanks for your reply. The problem is that I want to use preset 2, but it always reverts to preset 1

[fierce wedge]

ya shortfuse made renodx that way

it always launches to your first preset

[granite jungle]

Right! Thanks! That’s reassuring. So I can change the settings for preset no. 1 as I like, and they’ll be saved as normal, thanks!

[fierce wedge]

ya

[granite jungle]

Perfect, Thanks a lot !!

[distant cape]

I tried the artificial light removal mod and it worked great for the Grace sections at the care center- but the Leon stuff in Racoon City is just way too dark in third person with it.

[signal sky]

Played with it off with no issues. It’s harder to see but you shouldn’t really be able to see in pitch black rooms

[sweet estuary]

@fierce wedge @rich smelt I am trying to capture a frame of requiem using renderdoc

but its not working for some reason

[rich smelt]

Req has RT and stuff

I would use Nsight

or PIX

Also their anti tamper might block you

[sweet estuary]

even with REFramework?

I thought it bypassed all of that

[rich smelt]

no idea

PIX worked for me in Crimson

but Nsight was rip

Does someone has these black artifacts while using ray tracing ? Especially on his weapon
I am on a 5070, ray tracing high, everything else on high as well, already tried with native resolution and with upscaling, nothing changes
Without ray tracing, it's ok

[sonic musk]

What Ray reconstruction model are you using?

[stiff remnant]

I am with path tracing disabled, it's just ray tracing on high

But about the preset, I set Nvidia app to "recommended"

[sonic musk]

Ahh

Yeah it's the Capcom's denoiser shitting itself

Not unusual

[stiff remnant]

It helped a little when I removed film grain, it was worse before

But yeah, I guess there is no fix ?

[sonic musk]

Not really no
Unless someone figures out how to use ray reconstruction without pt

[stiff remnant]

:/

[winged apex]

Flashlight

[uneven halo]

If you use ultra+ you can use rr with ray tracing

At that point though may as well use pt as the Perf hit from rr is going to be within range anyway

[sweet estuary]

This isn’t crimson desert, RR doesn’t have that high of a perf hit

[uneven halo]

Turn it on and off and see the results

[stiff remnant]

I will give it a try later, thanks for the suggestion

[distant cape]

Are people using D or E preset with Ray Reconstruction? Which has less ghosting in third person?

[polar summit]

D has less ghosting with default settings

E also flatout fails to denoise at times

D has some pretty bad boiling without further tweaks tho, so pick your poison

[distant cape]

Cool thanks. Guess I’ll just go with D.

[stiff remnant]

I used Ray Reconstruction on ultra+ with Ray Tracing
It was not that taxing, but it didn't solved the problem
It only fixes with Path Tracing active as well
Thanks for the suggestion

[lament walrus]

If you still see shutters, try this setting. This is the algorithm I developed for DC for Frame Generation, which should help with shutters. max_queue=1 for lower latency, max_queue=3 for better stability. This algoritm is still under research, which is why I didn't set it by default yet. (FPS Limiter Preset).
Reflex set to 'low latency', no boost.

[primal rune]

What do i do to make the black not look too washed out when I’m in a room with light? Cuz any light on me make the black that i see washed out, i notice that if i up Shadow to max that does work, or lower to 0 the pre & post tone map shadwo sliders

I don’t know the best combination can any one help me ?

By the way i did click preserve shadow detail preset

[primal rune]

OKKKK so it was a easy gamma slide from 1.0 to 1.13 and that did it

LOOL

[dense fjord]

where do I get that DC tab?

[lament walrus]

https://github.com/pmnoxx/display-commander/releases

You have to install Display Commnader as addon.

[inland topaz]

make sure you install resahde with addon support and not regular reshade

TY!

I'm making improvements to make UIfps limiter + window manager focused.

https://tenor.com/view/monkey-bruh-monke-hospital-tubes-gif-6183237396145701176

[limpid ivy]

And what are the features of this addon, in terms of the effect on the picture or on the response, can it somehow improve these parameters?
For example, I use XEFG with Optiscaller, dlss quality. In the screenshot, you select the second line in the FPS Limiter , namely Use Reflex Latensy markers , max qued = 1
How does this affect the picture? Or is it better to use a native? By the way, after installing this mod, I lost subtitles in Requiem :)) That is, the subtitles of the Npc 🙂

[lament walrus]

** FG low latency algirthm, which fixed frame pacing issues**- the "use reflex markers max_queued=1/2/3", is an experimental algoirthm I developed for Frame Generation fps-limiting. It's not mentioned in the UI.

Current algorithms, like nvapi's reflex fps imiter, or SK's fps limiter focus on latency, but accordfing to testing, they do poor job at frame pacing . @mental glen and other people, including myself, tested, this approach, it does help in many games #1423918603035476041 message compared to other algoirhtm.

I wanted to make max_queued=1 the default, but it need a bit of research on how to make it work in all games. That's why max_queued=2 exists.
My plan for a while, was to create a library for fps limiter, offering this and different algorithms for fps limiting.

This I think deserves spending more time on developing, writing research paper on it, doing comparision, and auto-tweaking settings.

TLDR max queued =1/2/3, are parameters to the algorithm, that's a different setting, than DXGI's max queued frames setting.

[civic cairn]

just a friendly reminder for musa whenever you have free time 🙏 (if this gets annoying react w/ a 🤝 or 👍 if it’s ok)

[fierce wedge]

tried the tricubic b-spline filtering but it didn't fix the banding

[civic cairn]

Aw man

Thanks for the info though

You da goat

[limpid ivy]

Thank you very much for your explanation! It's very interesting, although it's not entirely clear to me as a regular person. However, I have a question: For Re Requiem, what is the best setting to choose if I enable 2x fg in the game's settings, use Dlss quality, and use XeFg in Optiscaller? What should I choose in the Fps Limiter section, and should I set max_queued=1? Additionally, what should I pay attention to, such as the latency level in ms and Frame Parcing? I understand that a lot depends on the graphics card (I have a 2080 ti palit dual).

[lament walrus]

I'll renamed the "max_queued=1" algorithm to be "DCPaceLock(q=1)", it's an algorithm I designed.

[lament walrus]

DCPaceLock(q=1) may decrease fps in some games, you would see it imediately if that happens, hence more reseach is needed, otherwise I would enable it by default.
If it doesnt' work then DCPaceLock(q=2), which is "pace real frames ... max_queued=1/2/3).

I'm going to work on UI rewrite, to make this simpler self explanatory.

This algorithm is a proof of concept I wrote testing a few strategies. I can be improved further, but needs more work to do so, eventually make it into library, it would be good to write a research paper about it. It can be improved futher, but making it work with all games, allowing for better control between low latency and pacing.

[limpid ivy]

@lament walrus By the way, there's an addon called Dlss fix, do you think it will improve the response time? Have you tried using it?

[lament walrus]

https://discord.com/channels/1408098019194310818/1410855640112566375/threads/1413548071987576862/1413548071987576862

[lament walrus]

This fixes DLSS-FG compatibility with RenoDX. It has no affect on pacing.

[lament walrus]

I tried previous version, but I couldn't get it to work.

I'm looking for feedback, list of games where it doesn't work. I fixed Doom: The Dark Ages, to make it work with Vulkan, but there could be more games where something doesn't work as it should.

[lament walrus]

Btw, "Reflex: Status: Fails" also needs rename means that native reflex implementation is not done properly the developer. I'll add a fix later, for affected games.

[low badge]

Is this just a Reno copy? It's a new mod from the RE9 ENUX guyhttps://www.nexusmods.com/residentevilrequiem/mods/1242?tab=description

[fierce wedge]

It is

Seems he also forked reshade

And @fathom zinc your shaders are here too

Dude is relentless lol

Ain’t no WAY

What is that thumbnail

[nocturne vine]

HDR Ultra Pro Max

[terse field]

roooofl it's actually Reshade indeed

What the hell is wrong with this dude

[mental glen]

whats worse is that his enux copy is STILL up and mods just locked comments

and the dmca that @worthy cradle opened on his github didnt seem to do anything yet either lol

https://github.com/uwlntilbbg/ENUX_HDR_Visual_Fix/

that shit still up

[terse field]

Compatible with all Reshade mods

Nah, really?

[lament walrus]

5000 series may not need the new DCPaceLock algorithm, because it has flip metering. I'm on 4090, so it's needed. I suspect nvidia implemented something similar in their driver to what I'm using. (in concept)

[winged apex]

Why do these losers do this stuff

[worthy socket]

targeted at people that don't know any better, rack up those download points in nexus, free money off the backs of others etc

I was pretty sure it was another ripoff, but I don't know enough to be able to tell for sure. To me RenoDX is magic.

[limpid ivy]

I have an Sdr Tv w905a, and I have 12 bits set in the Nvidia control panel. I also use the Reshade Addon with the renodx mod for Re 9 to remove Film Grain. I tried the SpecialK plugin by placing it in the Framework's plugin folder. For some reason, this plugin activates two brightness sliders that I can't adjust. When I turn off SpecialK, everything returns to normal. Why do you think this is happening? Let me take a screenshot.

[limpid ivy]

When using the SpecialK plugin, RenoDx has a peak brightness of 1000, game brightness of 203 and Sdr EOTF 2.2 . Without this plugin, these sliders are not active for me. So SpecailK thinks I have Hdr?

[fierce wedge]

renodx always has those settings

didn't code anything separate for sdr

no benefit to using the mod in sdr

unless you wanna mess around with sliders

there's nothing to fix in sdr

[limpid ivy]

In general, I saw that the SpecialK64 plugin has a setting that changes like a slider, it seems that the parameter 0.325 was initially set there, and if you right-click on it, the value goes to 80 cm just for Sdr. As for the slides, they are active in Vanilla + Tone nmap mode, like this.

[foggy needle]

🎉 F. yeah. the stuff on Nexus is DOWN...

i dont know why github is soooo slow these days..

they still didnt shut down the last one we reported

sadly not. im not sure whats up with github the last weeks, but they are really slow or dont do anything at all. we reported the last issue over 2 weeks ago, nothing happened. and this one, well.. we will see...
stuff like this makes me sad and mad.

[limpid ivy]

In the Special K Discord, they threw me a version where there is no Hdr activation, just for SDR users and there are no similar problems with Hdr activation.

26.3.25.3

• Further changes to prevent HDR override when RenoDX is loaded, hopefully
  it correctly sets the colorspace in recent builds.

  • This change allows SDR users to use RenoDX, for the RenoDX mods where such
    a thing makes any sense.

[fierce wedge]

No idea what that’s about

I don’t force any hdr stuff

Not sure what sk is doing

[limpid ivy]

I get it, but you see, there are different versions of SpecialK. In fact, I wanted to use SpecialK in conjunction with Optiscaller with XeFG activated (this is a frame generation tool). Allegedly, SpecialK has some tweaks for adjusting input to reduce latency and so on.

[limpid ivy]

Hello.ello. I'm testing the SpecialK plugin, and I'm curious about your zzz display commander addon. Does it have similar function?

[lament walrus]

Yes, Display Commander has similar general functionality as Special-K. It’s build as Reshade addon for better compatibility.

[limpid ivy]

For the sake of interest, I'll try your addon, because with SpecialK I have a Frametime of about 1.5 ms on average. It's better without it, I thought it would help on the contrary, or maybe there are some interesting tricks that I haven't mastered yet.

[lament walrus]

I meant Display Commnader to be Special-K's light weight alternative, rewritten from scratch. Containing the general purpose functionality. I'm working on improving the UI/UX.

[limpid ivy]

I agree, this is the advantage of your addon, in order to provide similar or the same functions, only with less load on the system and, accordingly, maintaining a low input delay. For example, I don't see any advantages in using SpecialK yet. I tried it in the Optiscaller Fg bundle . Maybe I'm wrong.

[civic cairn]

FYI: new update 1.4gb out -- wouldn't update until reframework is patched for new update

though i will test if it is actually broken or not

[bronze oak]

Any idea what the new update changes?

[civic cairn]

reframework is broken. so avoid updating or launching steam, run the game's exe by folder. and no not at the moment

PHOTO MODE ADDED

[civic cairn]

I lied chat

reframework DOES work

but idk about reshade, testign now

nevermind. reshade and reframework work fine. make sure you're on the most recent nightly version of reframework

[lament walrus]

To Special-K creadit. Special-K pioonered a lot of features. Like HDR Swapchain upgrade, with it's own auto hdr.
Added controller support for DualSense, for games where it doesn't work. And, ton of other niche features, such show showing achievements without realing on steam overlay, etc.

One big feature was adding texture caching, ability to swap and replace textures in dx11 games, allowing people to use texture packs, etc.

[sonic musk]

Afaik REF breaking with every update was partially REF fault, it's been fixed so it should happen again unless Capcom goes out of their way to break it

[kind fossil]

Meanwhile Otis_Inf camera tools been out since the game was released pretty much, and are superior 😄

[heady arch]

Gonna play the ME trilogy(Legendary Edition), HDR with RenoDX or SDR ?

[echo frost]

I am having issue with screen flickering on AMD at the start of the game. Anyone knows something about what is causing that ? Is that some bug with AO or SS ?

Main menu is fine but as soon as I load into start of the game its very distracting and can't find a way around it yet.

[echo frost]

Seems Ray-Tracing bug

[stray finch]

i wish it had a autoupdater

[frank badge]

someone could help me load otiscaler and renodx with specialK in re9? i don't want to use reframework

[fierce wedge]

mod requires reframework

[frank badge]

dont need it, just want xefg

[fierce wedge]

everything requires reframework

cause of the anti tamper

reframework is what bypasses the anti tamper

[frank badge]

i have strange bug with latest game version, my fps goes from 120 to 30 random even in the menu

i think is ref the cause

cant play the game

[echo frost]

You install Optiscaler like in any other game

[frank badge]

Optiscaler doesn't qork without ref

[stray finch]

i doubt it

[daring cypress]

I also have this problem

[civic cairn]

Is it really

[nocturne vine]

Otis tools? Yeah, almost always superior to any native photo mode.

Barring any effect features and such in some photo modes.

[civic cairn]

I'm on the latest reframework and the game crashed on first boot post update but it seems to be running just fine on the second one.. weird

[fickle dust]

Since the 13th till now , no new updates on renodx right ?

[fickle dust]

Is this normal ?

Why PT looks so bad in the opening sequence xD

[fickle dust]

Ok so I was forcing PRESET E which makes it look like shite

Preset D it is

[civic cairn]

Yea I started using it. It seems much more useful, ima have fun with this… :D

[inland topaz]

I keep hearing this but I forced E and didn’t see anything like this

Maybe something changed in an update, idk

I played it on release

[fickle dust]

Nah E is awful

It has more downsides than good

I finished game once on E and now swapped to D

D is much more stable

[inland topaz]

Doom games require E

Played some more yesterday, it sucks how bad FG gets without VRR in this game. Had to disable FG since I can't use VRR in this game.

But min maxing it, had fun. Gonna resume more today. Soon™

[civic cairn]

good luck chat 🙏
VRR did save my ass ngl

where did you end off at?

[nocturne vine]

Still in Grace's section, but I grabbed the ||organ in freezer from garage and got attacked||

On that side of the map going upstairs and clearing things, etc. Will continue from there next.

[civic cairn]

That’s some good progress 🫡

Faster than me

Took me a bit I think

[nocturne vine]

I stopped playing while I was already in that building, though.

I resumed from there.

But I spent a good time fiddling around with some stuff, too.

[civic cairn]

I wanna know your final runtime when you finish 😂

[terse field]

Why no VRR?

[nocturne vine]

the dumbass miniLED I am using has terribad ghosting issues due to its local-dimming algo.

I initially accepted them as the only con of that set, until I realized disabling VRR fixes them.

But then, you're left with no VRR so RIP.

I just had to reduce from DLAA + FG to DLSS Quality only, so it's w/e.

Game still

[terse field]

Where tf did your LG TVs went lol

[nocturne vine]

On my desk

the 65" is sitting on the floor

The 85" miniLED replaced that.

Now a 120" screen is soon to replace that miniLED.

[terse field]

[nocturne vine]

GTA 6 on 120", boio.

Jason will practically be in my room.

... and so will be Lucia.

Been a non-issue thus far, ghosting isn't really an issue in anything except for SUPER DARK scenarios, which is basically this game 99% of the time.

Even Alan Wake 2 didn't have issues, since a lot of it is intentionally raised there.

Cronos did, though.

So, pretty much an issue for horror games only. Games like Stellar Blade, or R&C Rift Apart, etc. Non issues.

[terse field]

What MiniLED TV are you using?

[nocturne vine]

TCL QM7K 85"

Bought it last year for putting it in the lounge so when mom comes over, she can watch her sports or soap opera and shit on it.

Figured I'd put it next to my 65" LG and try to calibrate or just compare.

[civic cairn]

bro same

But 98”

Originally wanted it for a week, but then it just won me over, lol. Watching movies on this thing is very nice.

[nocturne vine]

I had 98" available at QM8K, but QM7K only had 85" and I was like might as well do QM7K for the times fam is over and nephew/nieces wanna play some games with console.

Otherwise 98" would've been better overall.

[civic cairn]

I only got 98 so my parents can brag lmao

[nocturne vine]

Thing about miniLEDs (TCL ones especially) is that they get better in larger sizes, brightness and all.

[civic cairn]

But it was a really good deal

[terse field]

Should've gotten a Sony Bravia 9 bruv

[nocturne vine]

Helllllllll nah. Mfers still don't have HGiG.

But mainly cause it'd have cost 3x more 😛

Remember, this TV's mission was to display 'soap opera', it's already seriously overkill for that job.

News, sports, all that shit.

And Sony would've been an import, so even costlier, and no warranty.

[fair heart]

I appear to have found a semi-fix for the Residsnt Evil Requiem DLSS VRAM leak that happens later game. I found that after loading in with it set to DL SS balanced and FG x3, if I revert to performance DLSS with FG X2, then back, my VRAM stays under 94% and there’s no stuttering.

I’m running a 5070 Ti, 4K, max settings with path tracing. Also using the Display Commander add in.

[sturdy tide]

FG from lower than 70~80 native is bad, and x3 is barely worth it with 165hz and starts to make sense around 240hz.
Capped 60 with DLSS Performance is better, especialy with a good cap like in Display Commander instead of ingame, but eh, up to you.

I forgot I have DX12 tax on Linux though and can't compare my 4090 that easily, maybe 5070 Ti gets enough native frames without it.

I remember Reflex causing stutters though, so native with it off has another benefit.

[stiff remnant]

70-80 ? Isn't like 60 to 120 already ok ?

[sturdy tide]

If you use FG your native FPS drops, need headroom for that and in general.

If you're getting 60 with x2 that would be 100 from base 50 after FG tax, give or take.

And you're GPU bound now, unless you capped below 100 or native 50.

[stiff remnant]

Yeah, I know, I thought you were saying 70-80 base after the frame gen

I also think some games are also less taxing in frame gen
Like Crimson Desert I loss a lot more base fps than Re Requiem

[knotty apex]

just try to make sure your framerate after 2x fg is 120ish, some wiggle room is fine

[sweet estuary]

Today

Or yesterday

[stray finch]

no, days ago

[fair heart]

Anyone have any luck getting dynamic FG to work with Requiem?

[fair heart]

Also has anyone had issues with noticeable VRR flicker in RE Requiem and found a fix?

[signal sky]

No VRR flicker for me

Youre probably hammering your system too hard and can’t keep steady frametimes or you have something setup wrong

Game has mega stable frametimes

[solid shale]

It’s not related to the game, that’s just ur monitor. Try a frame cap, it should help. Or just disable gsync for just RE9 in Nvidia app and use a frame cap

[unkempt seal]

just got the game finally. reno on this game overwrites the game's hdr sliders? or do we still have to set them or reset them?

[fierce wedge]

overwrites

[unkempt seal]

excellent! thank you !

LETS GOOOO

[fickle dust]

what preset are u forcing if this is PT ?

ALSO

finally done with this piece of shit

[unkempt seal]

if piece of shit then why slog through it? 😄

[unkempt seal]

not forcing anything. default is RR Preset D

[fickle dust]

Because some sections are just shaq sleep. I wanted to finish challenges for fun

[fickle dust]

Shouldn’t look like that

Tho I admit PT is half good half ass in this title

[unkempt seal]

yeah it was just in that starting area dunno wtf was going on

[fickle dust]

If you want real eye tricks , try forcing preset E

[unkempt seal]

Already tried it lmaao, crazy ghosting

Crazy how AW2 has almost perfect implementation in comparison. Zero ghosting, smearing

[distant cape]

What RR Preset does AW2 use?

[sonic musk]

All games so far use D except fir the Doom TDA which uses newer E, because DoF is fucked with older models
E however has horrendous ghosting in the darker areas

[unkempt seal]

D but E looks even better on it from what I tested

[sweet estuary]

E gives you artifacts on water reflections

If you set the ray tracing to max

[unkempt seal]

With max PT? need to check. Am due for another playthrough after I finish requiem

[polar summit]

Worth nothing than alan wake is not full PT

[sonic musk]

It's about as full as any other game advertised as using PT

[polar summit]

Isn't it doing some hybrid RT/raster lighting, I vaguely remember the DF video mentioning something of the sort

[unkempt seal]

I was gonna say, I'm pretty sure this was the case

perf hit kinda says it as well. and visually when toggling it

[unkempt seal]

https://youtu.be/rYXoDmhOm2M?si=wiKPVYnoyXn1A394&t=147

you might be correct

[sonic musk]

Again, it's more or less the same as other PT games, the difference is that they use baked lighting for the GI fallback instead of light cache, the latter would have too much lag for a game where lighting conditions change abruptly
Haven't seen that panel about RE9 implementation, but I suspect they might be doing something similar, as they also don't use any caching

AW2 also isn't a "raster" game, they use something similar to the SW Lumen on all platforms, again with the baked fallback to avoid boiling and light lag

PT in games is still far from being a real deal like you see in the offline engines like Blender, it still relies on a bunch of hacks to work, each with their own downsides

[polar summit]

https://youtu.be/tXfwvohROPA?is=8qouUBH1D-DfnE7O 14:00 onwards he talks about something akin to baked fallback you mentioned

Also if RE9 was doing something similar shouldn’t it react just as fast to light changing?

It is quite slow and lingers for a while compared to AW2

[sonic musk]

It does in the RT mode because of the denoiser
PT with the default RR model is almost instantaneous

[polar summit]

I can tell you it is absolutely not instantaneous

Flashlight can take ages to clear fully

[sonic musk]

https://youtu.be/JGkGscHxZzU?t=385

[polar summit]

also visible in that video

could of course be something else entirely

but it does look like light lingering

the portion that was lit actually looks darker, so might not even be that

camera movement also clears it pretty much instantly

but just sitting still takes a good 30 seconds for it to recover completely

[sonic musk]

I mean, you can enable radiance cache with U+ and see how bad it gets

[polar summit]

Oyea i did, and it is indeed MUCH worse

[unkempt seal]

I was gonna say this

I've never seen it like this in aw2

[sonic musk]

I only ever seen light linger with preset E

[polar summit]

This was with preset D

[unkempt seal]

this is preset D

IIRC

[polar summit]

camera motion clears it basically instant tho

so hard to notice when actually playing the game

maybe it's a RR artifact idk

[sonic musk]

Did the entire playthrough with PT, haven't seen any obvious light lag

[sonic musk]

There's a flickering light at the very beginning of the hospital section where I've tested this

So not moving the camera

Maybe it's only affecting the flashlight

[polar summit]

there is visible linger there as well

but it is relatively quick

[unkempt seal]

flashlight looked disgusting at the beginning (I've only played the first 10 mins multiple times to test different things) until I turned IBL off then it looked good

the edges were boiling to hell

[sonic musk]

I mean it's all temporal accumulation, so it will never be truly perfect
But it is significantly more reactive than games that use caching for fallback

[polar summit]

yea for sure

but my point is, it is nowhere near alan wake 2

Alan wake 2 reacts as fast as raster

it's wild

[sonic musk]

Again, I dunno what RE9 is doing excacly
There's an hour long presentation about it on the nvidia channel, but I haven't gotten around to watching it yet

https://youtu.be/Gq1QdlQSzn0

[polar summit]

I skipped a bit ahead, and apparently they ARE using ReSTIR GI, but u+ tweaks shows it's off by default?

[unkempt seal]

I bought a 4090 to play it full PT when it launched cause Im a big AW fan, I thought all PT games would be like this. Little did I know

[polar summit]

they also mention being able to use only IBL lighting to reduce noise in indirectly lit scenes

which doesn't track at all lol

that setting is completely broken

[polar summit]

I think RE9 is a better looking game than AW2 overall 🤷‍♂️

[unkempt seal]

I mean in terms of these technical issues

Texture wise I think AW2 is miles ahead

The amount of low res textures Ive seen so far in re9

Is nuts

[polar summit]

worth noting that RE9 doesn't properly set a negative LOD bias for DLSS

but yea from a technical aspect AW2 is in a better state

altho it has it's own issues like LOD popin

easily fixable tho from what I understand

AW2 also has higher polygon counts compared to RE9

[polar summit]

I'd have to replay to say for sure, but I would guess a good chunk of the low res textures are due to this

[stray finch]

did you report it tho

[polar summit]

To Capcom?

Maybe I should

[stray finch]

Yes

[sonic musk]

I've said this before, but negative LOD bias can introduce severe moiré artifacts
There might be a reason why it's not used

And RR shaves off a lot of high-frequency detail by itself

It makes Leon look 10 years younger lmao

If you force it with U+ on the non PT path, you can see how it removes detail from people's faces and stuff

Preset E seems better, but again, ghosting galore

Once JoHien puts out the RT mod for RE9, this plus CNN DLSS should be the best way to play the game

[stray finch]

now the next question begins, RT or raster?

[unkempt seal]

true, fully agree. Flawless widescreen fixes it fully btw

[unkempt seal]

yeah that's what it always felt like to me

it just has a "higher poly" look just on a surface level gaze, totally not technical ofc, just has that "look"

[unkempt seal]

oh... I didn't know that 😮

[unkempt seal]

Is Johien's mod for RE9 gonna be based on RT instead of PT?

I was finishing RE4 last night with his mod and even with TAA it looks incredible oO and super stable

[sturdy tide]

JoHien mods? Guess I'm replaying 2, 3, 4, and maybe Village...

[sonic musk]

I assume it's going to be an RT tweak like the previous mods
I dunno if you can fudge with the PT implementation without breaking it

[unkempt seal]

100% worth it

[polar summit]

Fwiw, I’ve seen nothing of the sort with -1.000 DLSS balanced when I was messing around

Of course not representative of the whole game

[fair heart]

Anyone had any luck with dynamic frame gen? I can get it semi-working but it will exceed my refresh rate. I’ve had some luck using display commander to limit FPS, but it’s glitchy

[sonic musk]

Apparently dynamic frame slop is just busted

You need to push the GPU hard to prevent it from going above the target

Goofy ass tech

[fair heart]

I mean, it kinda works forcing it with profile inspector

DLSS quality feels very close to how balanced looked/felt before, using preset B. I’m on a 5070 Ti with path tracing 4K

Display commander seems to be limiting the frames without breaking it

[unkempt seal]

Have u tested preset B without dynamic? It felt the same to me

[analog cave]

@fierce wedge why does purist use Per channel instead of by luminance? Wouldn’t it be overall more accurate to determine it by luminance?

[fierce wedge]

Accurate as in matches sdr

What the developers would have seen

[analog cave]

Ah yeah that makes sense, thanks bro 🙏

[fair heart]

Yes, if dynamic actually works my GPU is always close to 100%

[unkempt seal]

yeah I was asking without dynamic tho, if you saw any measurable difference

[storm badger]

Hello, i'm currently using this optiscaler addon but i keep seeing the black levels too high

any suggestions?

[polar summit]

Not every scene needs 0 nit floor?

You can put scene grading scaling and secondary scene grading scaling to 100 that should improve it tho

[storm badger]

there is a white patina which is kinda annoying. Cyberpunk had similar issue but it was fixed with The optiscaler addon. With RE 9 is still present even with the mod

[polar summit]

I'm not sure what you mean, do you mean banding?

try the sliders I mentioned maybe they help with that as well

[storm badger]

nope

there is still this patina maybe cause by the light, not sure

[polar summit]

Hmm i don't see anything weird in that picture

try taking an HDR screenshot with reshade

[storm badger]

with those 2 option at 100 it gets a black crush, details on dark corners disappear without the white patina disappearing

npt sure this last screenshoot helps

[polar summit]

i don't see any black crush

and I'm not sure still what you mean with patina

maybe i'm just insensitive to it

[storm badger]

there is something strange on how the game shows me the image and how it shows it in the screenshoots

with and without options enabled
In the game there is a way bigger difference where the details of the box on the left side are basically black

btw the patina issue is the same i experience "except on a way bigger level" on windows even after calibrating it

[polar summit]

try retain shadow detail preset

[fading isle]

What is “white patina” exactly?

[distant cape]

Hmm I dont see that setting on the latest DC addon? Confused how to uncheck that. I do get stutters with Reflex on tho.

[dense sapphire]

Yeah I haven't played RE9 since DC changed, so I'm not sure about the new settings. See if any of the new limiter options help with the stutter

[distant cape]

All good I’ll just keep using afterburner and cap it at 114

[storm badger]

Unfortunately didn't work either

[storm badger]

it's like the black levels are way too high.
Texture which should be dark grey are more "white" overall... not sure to clearly explain it

this is something similar to what i was experiencing in cyberpunk but a bit different because here blacks are black meanwhile in cyberpunk blacks where gray

[royal spear]

So basically raised black levels or "white tint"?

[urban grail]

ya weird same happens to me guess its a lighting bug?

only in this game happens somehow

in cp77 with the lilium shader got perfect black level and hdr pop in that game.

[lunar bridge]

Already beat this game but im curious if the denuvoless version runs any better

[winged apex]

probably not

[silver lark]

pretty new to this, how do you see black level too high ? graph bottom right or numbers top left ?

[ornate nova]

What s the best setting for now ? TY

[storm badger]

Would say a white tint. This happen only in bright or whenever there is light source. Dark rooms do not have this issue. I would exclude a simple rises black levels

[storm badger]

Yup I suspect also. Not sure why tho...

[storm badger]

The ofset from the bottom of the chart. Cyberpunk had a constant offset which caused even black rooms to be grey instead. RE 9 is more complex seems to affect only lightning. HDR gaming always a pain

[urban grail]

Ya crazy they still releasing broken hdr games in 2026! U have a oled monitor or miniled?

[storm badger]

oled

[urban grail]

ic then its def. bugged^^

this the first game in hdr where i noticed that lighting bug

in sdr its almost non existent

sdr pic here

blacks in sdr looks almost perfect, but in hdr , some texture on the ground here in that shot are like pulsating white luminosity with the renoDX mod, i didnt tried vanilla hdr in this shot yet, and its very distracting, fck weird ^^

[unkempt seal]

I gotta be honest I haven't seen any of what you're describing oO really odd

[urban grail]

ya its the first time for me to, i was noticing this "bug" think ,in a HDR game

u have a nvidia or amd?

could be driver bug related not sure

[silver lark]

allright i see thx. for cyberpunk you mean in vanilla version ?

[inland topaz]

@fierce wedge is the "by luminance with per channel chrominance" from your gow mods the same thing just named differently?

[fierce wedge]

Yes

Well similar idea

But less likely to break

[inland topaz]

i assume its an earlier version

[fierce wedge]

Well doesn’t break st all

The one in the older mods isn’t good with dark blue and purple

[inland topaz]

as in the re9 is less likely to break compared to gow?

[fierce wedge]

Ya

[inland topaz]

i see

thanks

[obtuse mica]

i tried to enable motion blur to see how it looks in this game but i don't notice any difference, not even object motion blur, i wonder if it's only for cutscenes

[storm badger]

Yes, vanilla has bad black levels

[ornate nova]

Hdr Settings in game need to be set to défault or adapt cursor ,

[winged apex]

i want to try it out of curiosity and it seems like it doesn't work with reframework or something, there is just a black screen, game's running but no gpu load or anything

[vagrant thicket]

Can't get renodx to work with the cr@cked version of the game. The legit one worked just fine. Is it normal or am i missing something?

[vagrant thicket]

Nvm it's working now. Running the game exe as administrator was the issue. Launching without admin fixes the issue

[urban grail]

🤔

[vagrant thicket]

It's quite system specific. I didn't see much impact on my system. 9950x3d and 5080

With the cr@cked version, reframework is not needed for renodx. Just tested

Perhaps in some specific places it is outperforming. But yeah, i do notice the game feels overall a bit smoother with lesser loading times in the cr@cked one

[sonic musk]

Worthless video

Dunevo's impact on the performance has been documented extensively at this point, It affects the CPU performance only, and unless you play on a low power machine like the PC handheld, the performance impact is the margin of error stuff

There are many valid reasons to bitch about Dunevo but performance is not one of them

[stray finch]

if it's worthless why are the numbers different

[terse field]

Implying that Denuvo has an impact of VRAM is the proof you need this is all BS

And like it's been said, unless you are on a so severely CPU limited machine, i.e. to the point where you'd not have an enjoyable experience no matter what, Denuvo is not going to matter performance-wise.
At best, some games depending on your configuration might have longer loading times, but that's really it. In a normal gaming scenario, it won't affect your performance for shit.

Denuvo has been one of the go-to whining and bitching topics in the gaming space for years, and while indeed it's an issue when it comes to games preservation when it's not removed over time for example, you are not losing performance because of it, unless again your PC is so, so shit you should not play a given game in the first place

[urban grail]

Denuvo not really affecting the performance, the fps should be pretty much the same, but it 100% affect the loading times especyally on the first run

where it needs to check ur PC Id first for about 90 seconds or so

then a little longer loading times to load,continue ur save

and some randoom micro stutter

especyally before it triggers the cutscenes

i noticed

[terse field]

Were you able to reproduce these micro stutters 1:1 with and without Denuvo multiple times to make sure that's the only difference, and not traversal stutters (which RE Engine has a fair amount of) or shader compilation stutters?

[urban grail]

still firing up some ubisoft games from time to time

and it takes a a lot to get first into the game, that at some point i felt the game got stuck or my pc freeze

but the denuvo was working checking ur PC ID

but also true Ubisoft games have some extra layers of DRM added on top of the Denuvo Drm

they own Drm added on top of the Denuvo = the best experience for gaming with the Ubisoft games^^

[terse field]

And the way they load data is still slow as shit on current gen games as it was on previous gen ones, and given Denuvo is usually checking things during that type of moments... it's not going to help the loading times

https://momo5502.com/slides/denuvo/1

Someone did a good analysis of what Denuvo does in Hogwarts Legacy, and... it's not doing much

As we already know

[urban grail]

And i still think the paying customer should'n get the worse experience

even if its not a huge difference still

[terse field]

Companies protecting their releases, especially the large and expensive ones, is understandable at the end of the day. The way Denuvo should be used is that after the main release window where most of the sales are done, it should get removed contractually or something along those lines. And while this is getting more common thankfully, this is something entirely at the discretion of the company and thus it's often not happening still

And slightly longer loading times with more or less no real performance impact is a small price to pay to protect that release window, if we're being honest. But it should be removed after that, yes.

[urban grail]

Ya i agree with this, for them using denuvo to protect the launch the first month or two where the huge majority of theyr sales comes in. but should be removed after that.

8y old game still has 50 layers of Drm protections

takes 3 minutes to fire the game till denuvo + ubi own drms checks ur PC id for the token

[wild ridge]

The hypervisor bypass has a performance impact so if that's used it's invalid by default

[urban grail]

i nv tried the hypervisor and prob. never gonna try it :))

goes to deep in ur PC bios security at the Kernel level i heard

[unkempt seal]

On a 7800x3d + 5090, capping at 100 fps with DC. Every so often (very rare btw) I'd get the occasional VRR flicker, it was worse if Reflex capped at 116 on my 120hz TV. RE2, 3 and 4 had 0 of this. Overall performance has been ultra solid but those very occasional VRR flickers / spikes were a bit annoying but they were very far out in between. Curious if denuvo could be contributing to that

[urban grail]

try the cracked ver. to for testing^^

[lilac coral]

Just started the game up for the first time, installed everything from REFramework to RenoDX and I get those weird traversal or scene change stutters. Sometimes also when moving the camera fast. Tried the fix in DC (you need to change one setting which is "2" to "game default", dunno about the name right now, then you get the settings back which are in the screenshot pinned here) but doesn't work. Any "final" fix right now? Playing it maxed out with DLSS Perf and 2x FG.

[sweet estuary]

this was happening to me for a while and some other people, if you check the hdr den display and monitors channel, i think its a bug on the lg firmware side

[urban grail]

Ya could be a bug for sure but also My 2 cents guessing its that flame from that gun its to bright and fast, and the ABL kicks in instant as a safety measure, panic mode 🤣

https://tenor.com/view/everybody-panic-gif-13346623

Thats a older oled model and had limited brightness i rem and very agressive ABL compared to today standards at least shouldn't happen anyway so most likely a bug for that model.

[ornate nova]

Hi, game settings hdr need to be set to défault or custom it ?

[crystal glen]

I have been enjoying how reno looks in-game, but read on the nexuscomments about REFramework that REF causes lots of fps issues. Is this still true?

[winged apex]

no

[winged apex]

why is this guy's framerate jerking constantly

[unkempt seal]

how often are you getting these? I've had a few throughout the game which caused vrr flickering (5090) RR quality / 2x fg. Limiting to 100 fps in DC Lite with limiter preset to DQ=1 helped but didn't completely eliminate it, there were still a couple here and there but it was very occasional

[lilac coral]

Pretty much constantly. Especially when scenes change in cutscenes or scripted events.

[unkempt seal]

with those settings how many fps are u getting? try limiting with DC to 100 and use q=1 or q=2

even on the main menu I do see a couple of hitches here and there

[lilac coral]

Maxed out 116 (reflex limiter) with 50% GPU usage in the Hospital.

[unkempt seal]

try what I said, I was getting more vrr flickering aka spikes when near reflex limit

[lilac coral]

I read in a forum that deactivating fullscreen optimisation/ running the exe as admin should help and I will try that next

[lilac coral]

I will, but I can’t say I get much VRR flickering

[unkempt seal]

that seems like the classic reddit generic recommendations for any "issue" in games

never done that tbh

[unkempt seal]

it depends on the monitor / tv. my tv is probably more prone to that

but vrr flickering = sudden spike

[lilac coral]

Steamforums but yea 😅

[lilac coral]

C2?

[unkempt seal]

C9

[lilac coral]

Ah, c2 here

BTW I also read FG seems the issue and I tested it a bit and it seems to be fixing the stutters but I really want to play with it on.

[unkempt seal]

I'll wait for someone else to chime in but what I did above helped. It doesn't fully eliminate it

I even had a micro stutters in the end credits, but pretty much none during the entire last part of the game for example

odd

[lilac coral]

So, I tested your method. Sadly the input lag gets a bit worse which I don't like but it seems to improve the stutters a bit. But as I said, deactivating FG eliminates the problem almost completely.

[lilac coral]

Maybe deactivating Reflex alltogether will fix it.

[sweet thicket]

Any consensus on what settings we should be using for the best looking game possible? I run PT + HDR + Reno but sometimes things just look blurry

Also, shouldn't many of these options be irrelevant with PT?

[unkempt seal]

yeah, the gameplay is slow anyway so that;'s why I dont mind

[analog apex]

i honestly sus reframework, none of this stuff happens without it, idk how things now compared to launch week, but i had nasty stutters in cutscenes when the camera switch and in general gameplay and especially it got worse in the middle section of the game, then at the time i uninstalled everything back to vanilla, and it was very smooth and fluid again even in the same sections i had problems with, i eventually installed both mods again and it was actually fine for a while?? but still same problems returned again even in my testing sections so i have no idea lol

[dense sapphire]

What's your resolution and DLSS quality? You can turn off lens distortion, that blurs the image

[terse field]

CA will give a sense of blurring on edges, but not lens distortion

[sweet thicket]

3440x1440p + DLSS on Balanced

If I switch off of Path Tracing to RT High, everything is crisp and sharp

Here's an example. 1st Image is Path Tracing, 2nd is Ray Tracing High. Mabe I'm high and it's just the depth of field tho lol

[dense sapphire]

PT will be blurrier because Ray Reconstruction isn't as sharp as DLSS SR 4/4.5. It does look very soft in that screenshot though, do you know if you changed the RR preset?

[sweet thicket]

I haven’t changed the preset no

I remember reading somewhere about changing it to Preset E through NPI?

Could also be my resolution?

[dense sapphire]

I don't like E in this game, it weirdly oversharpens and also blurs certain things

Can you afford to use DLSS quality? It would make a big difference at your res

You can also use optiscaler for output scaling which I highly recommend

[sweet thicket]

I've got a 4080, so Quality is a little tough to run

I haven't tried optiscaler, is there a performance hit with it?

[dense sapphire]

Small but 100% worth

Like 5% or less

[sweet thicket]

I'll try it right now

[dense sapphire]

Try 2.0x output scaling with Lanczos2 or FSR1 as the downscaler. Lanczos2 will be sharper, but more aliased

Didn't really notice any additional aliasing with lanczos2 in this game though

[dense sapphire]

You're right, it's the CA specifically. It's pretty strong in this game though and blurs close to the center of the screen

[sweet thicket]

Hmm. Using those gives me some disco lights

I'm messing with some settings. The sharpness is already helping

[dense sapphire]

shouldn't be getting those at DLSS balanced with 2x output scaling

Unless I'm misremembering

But RR breaks at certain upscale ratios like that

[sweet thicket]

You're right. I was on Performance when I was testing earlier

Ty, this has actually helped a lot

[analog apex]

lol

[fair heart]

Any new stuff for RE9?

[wary gust]

Well no one care

[fierce wedge]

I’ll prob add aces as a tonemapper option in a week or so

After pragmata

[fair heart]

Is that superior to the one currently in RDX?

[fierce wedge]

probably won't be very different

but I can use it as a base to modify and make something nicer that's still accurate to vanilla

they bake their tonemapper into a LUT

I'm likely just ACES

in pragmata it is

[fair heart]

Thats interesting, I find that I like how RE9 looks with the default LUT turned down (using the slider in RDX)

Seems like the default washes out the colors

[fierce wedge]

those luts are before the tonemap lut

they apply color tints with those luts and then after do the tonemap in another lut

[fair heart]

gotcha I wonder what modifying the second LUT would look like

I've played with it in Cyberpunk with limited results

Honestly could never find a LUT I truly liked in that game lol

[pure chasm]

That lut would need to be disabled to avoid double tonemapping, or you already bypass it and take over with your tonemapper?

[fair heart]

sounds like it can be bypassed

[fair heart]

at least the second one since it is baked into tone mapper, but I think you can already disable/decrease the first LUT as well in current RDX

[fair heart]

hmm anyone know why the ray tracing tweaks mod for Reframework got removed?

[unkempt seal]

isn't that useless anyway for re9?

[fair heart]

Seems to increase my performance turning some of them on.

[sonic musk]

If you're referring to the one I think you do, it was Ai sloped code from the similar mods to the other RE engine games and ultra plus for Re9

https://ko-fi.com/post/Some-Updates-R6R11X53Q3

[fair heart]

Oh wow if that’s the case I’ll remove it. It was recommended by someone on here I believe. It did seem to increase performance with some of the tweaks

[analog cave]

There’s an ultra plus for RE9?

[sonic musk]

https://discord.com/channels/1296187754979528747/1477506311553028167

[formal grotto]

its pretty useless as always if you ask me

[analog cave]

Thanks 🙏

[analog cave]

Ehhh depends

Clair obscur hugely benefits from U+

[dense sapphire]

The re9 one isn't a typical U+ mod, it doesn't do anything out of the box, it just exposes hidden settings

The biggest thing is it allows you to disable IBL sampling, which will reduce ghosting with PT

[unkempt seal]

RE9 does not have U+, they just released a script that exposes a lot of hidden options. That's it.

U+ is incredibly useful for most games that it exists for. Clair Obscur is one of them, SH2, etc night and day. Couldn't play without it

[wise iris]

Is it linked to U+ discord? its says No Access for me 🤔

[fresh bison]

you'd need the role for RE, it's under Ultra Minus games

[wise iris]

Got it, thanks.

[formal grotto]

I tried IBL off and it improves just the boiling on surfaces but the particle ghosting it introduces is absurd 🤣 RE needs a higher ray count for meaningful improvements to the boiling, none of the U+ options gave me a improvement, increasing ray count in the mod does not cost any fps which is already telling a lot.

[fair heart]

btw RElimiter works really well with RE9, finally got dyanmic frame gen to work properly with the game

[polar summit]

where particle ghosting

is it in the room with us

[formal grotto]

You can have a look at any particles, dust or amber I tested it coinicidentaly in the RC gunshop and there it was immediately distracting. Obviously there is downsights for those in engine options, as there was a reason capcom/nvidia enabled it per default, would be flatout crazy to believe we are smarter than them. Right now there is no option thats decreases fps, thats obviously the only way to make PT more pretty.

[polar summit]

I have had a look

in several places

there is no particle ghosting

or rather ibl sampling on/off doesn't affect it one way or another

[formal grotto]

Whats the benefit of having ibl enabled?

[polar summit]

ibl sampling on is just broken

it is of benefit in very few scenes, like the starting street

but for the most part it just doesn't work properly for whatever reason

[unkempt seal]

Played through the entire game with IBL off and had zero of those issues oO

[unkempt seal]

If you think so the load into raccoon city and report back loool.
IBL off looked great throughout the entire game to me

[dire helm]

Can you turn it on/off in realtime? I'll try it out

I played with whatever the default is.

Saw a bunch of noise on the volumetrics coming in from a window in the early horror section, but other than that didn't see much distracting

[fair heart]

Any idea when this will get a Reno update? Currently in Raccoon City but can hold out for the new tone mapper

mmm advertising the AI slop on the newest drivers 😄

[terse field]

Why would it get a new update in particular? Meant to do what?

[fierce wedge]

the ocio luts seem to literally just be:
HDR - RRTODT.Academy.Rec2020_1000nits_15nits_ST2084
SDR sRGB - ODT.Academy.sRGB_100nits_dim

[fair heart]

Was just about to reply with your previous message lol

[fierce wedge]

at least that's what they use in pragmata and re9 seemed to be the same as pragmata

well hdr is def that one cause it looks identical, sdr seems ever so slightly different

[oak flint]

@fierce wedge @sonic musk best setting ?

[fierce wedge]

for now I'd say either defaults or preserve shadow detail depending on if you're ok with black crush

[fair heart]

@fierce wedge lmk if I can help test out that new RDX update y’all are working on for RE9. 😄

I’m gaming on a calibrated Bravia OLED (peak 1000 nits), so I might be able to provide some useful feedback regarding HDR and color

[fierce wedge]

i'll prob work on it tomorrow or the day after

[fair heart]

thanks for everything you guys do. Reno truly improves the visuals and experience in every game

Was just testing out Jedi Survivor with newer RDX branch and dynamic frame gen. Game is looking crisp, and finally runs smooth. But now I'm switching to RE9 😄

[fair heart]

Just got to this part and... wow.

[fair heart]

I ❤️ RenoDX

[sweet thicket]

What is RElimiter?

[fair heart]

https://github.com/RankFTW/ReLimiter

[sweet thicket]

Ty

[fair heart]

Fixes dynamic frame gen issues

Another alternative is Display Commander if you’re not using dynamic frame gen

[sweet thicket]

Unfortunately I'm still on the 4080, so I don't have the option :/

What does Display Commander do?

[fair heart]

similar to relimiter but has a bunch of options for frame pacing algorithms. For example I was able to use it to eliminate my VRR flicker in RE9

Reno On v Reno off shot

[fair heart]

IMO with RDX it looks like the game is running with higher settings, more like actual "path tracing" 😄

If anyone is interested these are my settings (for peak 1000 nits)

[static fossil]

is this 4k native

really sharp and clear

[dusky parcel]

Thanks for this mod, it made my experience with the game so much better...

[dusky parcel]

Thanks 🙂

[desert nebula]

Just drag the JXR file into the exe and it'll convert it

[formal grotto]

I actually think its nice 🤣 you can obviously tone down the intensity but that certainly is a huge improvement over vanilla might be fixing black hair in RC too 😅

[silk lance]

Hey guys

I did copy the dinput file from REFramework, installed rehsade 6.7.3 without any addons and disabled the two optinos as mentinoed in the guied, however, in reshade menu I do not see any renodx tab or options

[soft frigate]

Is the latest reframework crashing this game now, Im crashing everytime after the initial cutscene.

[dense sapphire]

You installed reshade with full add-on support or no?

[silk lance]

Good question

[soft frigate]

yes

If i remove the dinput8 it runs fine

[silk lance]

Ah I'm stupid. I downloaded the normal ReShade. Not the addon supprot whateve.r

[soft frigate]

Yea I used to have that problem lol

[analog cave]

What settings on relimiter did you use to get rid of the flicker?

[silk lance]

It was that. Thanks.

Any preset or something? Or how do I know what settings are better? Try and error?

[fierce wedge]

@sonic musk

So I guess I’ll use ACES 15 nit midgray peak 1000 as the tm since that’s the exact one they use in HDR

Pragmata likely isn’t hdr first with how long it was in development

Doubt they did some massive revamp after 2023

Gonna rewrite the mod after i update death stranding 2 for the latest patch

[toxic narwhal]

first time playing i really like these

[fair heart]

DLSS quality 4K native, max settings with path tracing

[fair heart]

I still get some flicker in RElimiter, Display Commander completely eliminated it with the pace native frames frame limiter preset.

[toxic narwhal]

display command vs relimiter in general? i understand vrr flicker but i haven't had any

[fair heart]

RElimiter works well with dynamic frame gen. Other than that Display Commander does way more. It has multiple frame limiter/sync algorithms.

This is the VRR flicker in Vanilla RE9 with Gsync enabled

[dense sapphire]

How's latency with pace native frames vs the default game reflex limit?

[fair heart]

The read out from the Nvidia overlay shows higher, but it feels just as smooth if not smoother overall with less stutter

RElimiter has the lowest latency

[static fossil]

huh

is it native or dlss quality

[fair heart]

The native resolution of the display is 4K, DLSS is set to quality

Actually might have been balanced at that point 🤷‍♂️

[toxic narwhal]

but does display commander FEEL better

like relimiter FEELs better than RTSS relex frame limited

[toxic narwhal]

this i think answers my question

reflex always

[fair heart]

DC feels better if you’re not using dynamic frame gen

With RElimiter is still get VRR flicker occasionally

[fair heart]

We got the Pragmata update, so hoping RE9 is next 😄

[unkempt seal]

btw I've noticed more vrr flickering when reshade window is opened, whenever I'm changing settings etc, noticed that even if you dont touch it it causes much more flickering by just being open

[fair heart]

This is true

[unkempt seal]

my experience has been that DC does feel better than RElimiter. I do enjoy the simplicity of RElimiter though. But DC Lite is also quite simple

Haven't tested DFG though

[fair heart]

DFG is sick, when it works lol

[wraith kite]

wow that is a throwback

I'm surprised that was linked instead of skiv

[sick jetty]

Gonna need to try this script

Is it pinned here @glacial basalt

Is it on the other server

[glacial basalt]

its in the resident evil channel, but RE9 there are fewer straight improvements other than disabling IBL sampling in RC

[sick jetty]

Oh which one sorry

Channel that is

[analog apex]

just realized driver forced anisotropic filtering looks way better for some reason?

the details are destroyed in the pictures but the difference is obvious in person, for example in the start area the sidewalk vents are clear and visible all the way into the street and texture detail are visible on brick walls in the far buildings unlike the default they only get clearer as you get close

for some reason it gets even worse at DLAA?? but forcing it from the driver fixed it regardless

[fair heart]

Script? 👀

No update to Reno for RE9 yet I take it

[urban grail]

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/hhpR6E3zBVE

[formal grotto]

Why are the tile joins so weirdly dark and contrasty when forcing AF via driver?

[sweet estuary]

Driver forced AF always looks better for some reason

Did you put negative lod bias to allow or clamp?

[analog apex]

i think when you set it to 16x from the driver it gets changed to clamp automatically

[analog apex]

that's how it looks normally in this area even close around the character, as you get close you see them load in

[sweet estuary]

Yes but do you change it back

[analog apex]

no i keep it at clamp

[analog apex]

this what distracted me at first, it's much improved now

[sonic musk]

Note that clamping disables the negative lod bias when upscaling
So the textures will look more blurry the more agresive upscale factor is

[polar summit]

good thing this game doesn't set it properly in the first place then

lmao

[sweet estuary]

which area is this

i wanna try it

garage entrance?

[analog apex]

yeah

[analog apex]

i was playing at native this playthrough, i was very confused why at native it was much worse in that regard, like textures a little bit away in the distance looked noticeably blurry, it happens both at DLAA and defualt TAA or no AA, doesn't happen with fsr 3 native AA though lol

[fair heart]

I remember noticing this as well^

[fierce wedge]

lut scaling off / on

only affects the darkest shadows now

improves rather than reduces visibility

[fierce wedge]

just gonna make game brightness default to 150

there's no reason you should set it so high for a horror game

you're supposed to play this at night

[oak flint]

Doesn't koklusz sdr reference white is 300 ?

[fierce wedge]

what he means by that is the default setting of the brightness slider is close to the brightness of sdr at 300 nits

but I think the game's brightness slider is way too high by default

end users might be too stupid to adjust the brightness slider though

I guess 203 is fine

[noble veldt]

@fierce wedge Just finished the game. What a great experience. Very grateful to you and your dedication to the community with your mod(s). The game looked amazing from beginning to end. Going to try pragmata next

[static fossil]

idk i felt like the shadows were a bit too dark in the west wing of the care center

[fierce wedge]

cause the mod is crushed

new version is gonna have less contrast

[static fossil]

Quite marvelous

[oak flint]

You should change it, otherwise it will become standard

[fierce wedge]

people are gonna complain the mod is too dim I think if I set to 150

cause the game defaults to a super high brightness

[oak flint]

Set to 204 or 205, let them question

Why not 203

[fierce wedge]

ya fuck it i'll just do 203

[oak flint]

Shadow contrast or color contrast ?

[fierce wedge]

shadow contrast is just 50 now and 2.2 emulation is disabled

just gonna do what I did in pragmata and slightly lower the minimum nits in aces

[fair heart]

I've been holding out beating it for the new RDX, decided to stop yesterday after beating the first boss in raccoon city

[fierce wedge]

it's done I think

might change default settings before uploading idk

but i'll send what I have now

[static fossil]

hows the performance there

heard there was crazy stuttering and fps drops

[fierce wedge]

vanilla hdr defaults with peak maxed out / renodx defaults peak 1000

ah film grain was off with vanilla there

[fair heart]

Hell yeah!

[fair heart]

It’s hit or miss. Sometimes something breaks with DLSS and VRAM starts filling up and I have to reset it. But using dynamic frame gen and Relimiter or Display Commander it’s been very playable with max settings at 4K

[fair heart]

You submitting to Nexus?

[fierce wedge]

messing aronud a little more

but ya I'll just upload to nexus in a sec

vanilla hdr defaults peak 10k / renodx defaults peak 10k

[fair heart]

Happy to be a guinea pig if I can help 😄

Nexus is gonna think I’m DDoS-ing them for how many times I’m refreshing the RE9 mod page 😄

[fierce wedge]

updated

https://www.nexusmods.com/residentevilrequiem/mods/20?tab=files

[sweet thicket]

Awesome!

[fair heart]

❤️ you @fierce wedge!

[fair heart]

https://tenor.com/view/oh-my-god-okay-its-happening-omg-the-office-gif-23429110

[fair heart]

trying to get passed this part so I can actually see

definitely looks a lot better in dark than previous SDR EOTF 2.2 emulation

[crystal glen]

What is HDRFrame?

[warm sage]

Is there a mod or a tweak or something that exists yet that would allow me to apply anti aliasing to the items during the close ups when you find them?

the close-ups honestly look so bad

[crystal glen]

@fair heart can you ELI5 if I should be using the SDR EOTF emulation when using HDR? and why you have it on lower ACES min. Also, the description for slider match hdr +4 ticks from the left - is confusing to me

[fair heart]

HDR screenshot app

[fair heart]

I mean you can do pretty much any kind of processing on a screenshot. The in game photo mode allows for some lens focus changes that might accomplish what you’re looking for

[fair heart]

@fierce wedge can probably better explain, but I believe you want to use the ETOF SDR emulation to improve the ETOF tracking in HDR.

[fierce wedge]

It’s probably not relevant in this game

[warm sage]

im not talking about the photo mode im talking about when you first find a new item or key or something and it shows the item all super zoomed in. By default the game does not anti alias these items it seems and they look jagged and ugly. Rotating the item around and inspecting the texture/art is not satisfying because of it

[fierce wedge]

You basically just have to guess if the game was graded in sdr on srgb displays, sdr on 2.2 displays, or in hdr

2.2 looks like shit

So I assume they didn’t grade on 2.2 displays

[dense vortex]

maybe they did hdr first

[fierce wedge]

They said in 2023 they were going to switch to hdr first

So even though the sliders are broken

It looks good

And I think it’s plausibly hdr first

[fair heart]

Yeah so that slider may not do anything, but otherwise the above settings look great 😄

[dense vortex]

is it like this in pragmata as well?

ok, I see your mod description on nexusmods, looks like not

weird, maybe they're still using their old workflow for pragmata, and for requiem they changed it

[dense sapphire]

I feel like LUT scaling can look very strange at times. I thought so too in RE2. It allows you to see things in dark areas that I don't think the devs want you to see and gives a posterized look to shadowed areas

[dense sapphire]

It's probably just my display's near-black performance

[polar summit]

I get the same in peak 1k

Looks good in tb400 tho

So i just do lut scaling off in peak 1k and on with tb400

[dense sapphire]

Yeah I only use TB400 and my monitor has raised near-blacks in every mode. I usually have contrast at 55 in NVCP to counteract it, but I guess it reset and that's why it looked so bad with LUT scaling on. Looks fine after setting contrast to 55 again

[fierce wedge]

Pragmata is mixed

It has some old code but is largely new code

[lilac coral]

@fair heart What are your DC settings for eliminating VRR flickers and stutters?

[warm sage]

Hey so if you guys are using frame gen and are getting stutters in this game and pragmata, try limiting your FPS with RTSS instead of the nvidia app. Apparently theres some issue with re engine and fps limits + reflex but RTSS doesnt have that issue for some reason. anyway try it out maybe that fixes your stutter

it fixed my stutter problem in both games for me at least.

not sure about the VRR issue though

[soft frigate]

This fixed the crashing for me on a new install, Thanks.

[lilac coral]

It also works with ReLimiter to an extend. VRR flicker is still there but the stutters are mostly solved.

[analog cave]

@fierce wedge Are defaults fine to use because I know you switched the SDR EOTF

to Lower ACES

Okay I scrolled up in chat and found the answer, lmfao

[fair heart]

Believe it was “pace native” or “pace generated” presets, but I will have to check next time I’m in game

[fair heart]

I’ve currently got the dynamic frame gen compatibility slider set to 112 FPS in Relimiter. Watching the frame time numbers I found that dropping it under the VRR limit gave lower latency

[fair heart]

Have to convert it from jxr to png, also doesn’t let you do a selection part of the screen

[warm sage]

doesnt dynamic frame gen not work with fps locks? IIRC it won't crash or anything, but it will just max out at your maximum set frame gen multiplier and never actually lower the multiplier when it actually needs to like it should with dynamic frame gen, and just remains at x4 or x5 or whatever you set it to the whole time. Does Relimiter fix this issue?

[fair heart]

When it works correctly it will go up and down. But it’s definitely not completely stable/reliable in its current state with RE9. You can’t use it with vsync or any normal frame limiters, or it will stick at a higher multiplier

[warm sage]

so youre saying that with relimiter limiting fps and not nvidia app, and no vsync, youre able to make dynamic frame gen behave as its supposed to, but with a cap to fps?

because if thats the case that would actually make dynamic worth using

[fair heart]

Yes it’s great. But occasionally it will still get stuck and I have to click the dynamic frame gen compatibility checkbox on and off in Relimiter. I also use NVPI-R profiles to get it working

[warm sage]

ah, so it sounds like how I got it to "work" for hitman 3 by just opening the menu every time it got stuck since it seemed every time you made frame gen turn off it would reset the multiplier. It still wasnt really working and was annoying to do so it wasnt worth it imo

[fair heart]

Dunno if it will work with that game. It works better in some games than others. I haven’t been able to get it to work in some older games at all, like Returnal

[warm sage]

it does, its just if you want to try to fuck with capping your FPS it becomes a fools errand for any game imo

[fair heart]

Cyberpunk it works correctly, Crimson Desert it mostly works, with RE9 it works maybe 80% of the time

[fair heart]

That’s what the dynamic frame gen target is for

[warm sage]

its what its SUPPOSED to be for but waht it actually is is just an average

[fair heart]

Yea I had to lower it to 112 FPS, seems to work better than my VRR limit of 116

You want it to undershoot FPS target with lower multiplier, than overshoot

[warm sage]

im just gonna wait until nvidia actually fixes their shit before i start trying with dynamic again

cuz at least they said theyre working on making it have a cap

[fair heart]

Might be waiting a while

[warm sage]

yeah probably lmao

[fair heart]

IMO the real solution is a fractional multiplier

Rather than whole numbers

[warm sage]

wouldnt that be nice. now THAT is what we'll be waiting forever for.

[fair heart]

That would be a game changer, because it wouldn’t have to be fluctuating between large numbers that are too high or low than target

[warm sage]

yeah it would be the ideal way to frame gen forever pretty much

[fair heart]

Ideally both DLSS should be able to change dynamically by percentages to give best image and FPS

[oak flint]

4K Processing
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uKcs4d4Qan0

[fair heart]

Same here. Idk how you play with the default FOV tho, it’s like tunnel vision to me 😄

[fair heart]

Anyone else think Grace’s movement speed is ridiculously slow? Especially after going from Leon to her?

[oak flint]

in first person, can't differentiate between running and walking

[terse field]

That's kind of the whole point, tbh

[fair heart]

Yeah I get her play style is supposed to be slower and stealth focused, but realistically her “running” is slower than a brisk walk

[static fossil]

get a mod or something
