Alright. Expand CNAMES, select one of them, doesn't matter which, use copyBytes on it, then use the paste script, it will ask which string you want to insert, so that was 'scattering' press OK and it will add that string

steady glacier
#

the e3 demo is real

lofty thistle
#

uh-huh

#

doen

steady glacier
#

e3 demo now complete

#

doen

#

gaem ova

coarse sable
#

What I did next, I expanded VolumetricAreaSettings, used copyBytes on absorption. This is where it might get tricky. In my case, I had to manually duplicate absorption, as it didn't do anything with the paste script, but before we get to that, we'll see how it works for you. Once you've got absorption copied, use the paste script, and it should duplicate it.

steady glacier
#

MorningSpice really is just John McAfee

coarse sable
#

If none of that works, just came up with a different idea, so I'll test that real quick in the meantime

lofty thistle
#

and then just change index?

coarse sable
#

Yeah, it'll update it

lofty thistle
#

ohhh but now wolvenkit won't read it :(

coarse sable
#

Let me try my other idea

lofty thistle
#

also @coarse sable the game can be stubborn, you can bruteforce it a few times and it'll learn

#

so sometimes you just have to launch the game 20 times and it'll work

#

also....

#

I will try doing something else

steady glacier
lofty thistle
#

AND THERE WE GO

steady glacier
#

dear god

#

this mod can truly be

#

demo

lofty thistle
#

didn't look good bcuz i messed with some stuff

#

let me try again

coarse sable
#

My new idea works. I just outright replaced absorption with scattering, and it works.

#

Absorption shouldn't be necessary if scattering works, no?

steady glacier
#

๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜ณ

lofty thistle
#

It is

#

E3 has absorption AND scattering lol

coarse sable
#

Damn. Oh well, at least it didn't crash.

#

This is with scattering at 0.5

lofty thistle
#

OH MY GOODDDD

#

@steady glacier

#

he did it

coarse sable
#

WolvenKit works with absorption replaced, might be able to jury rig it back in that way

#

What's E3's absorption? Or what'd you have it set to before you went with 0?

lofty thistle
#

hmmm maybe

#

It's 0 anyways

#

I guess it doesn't matter lmao

#

absorption AND scattering at the same time? impossible

steady glacier
lofty thistle
#

just had to add item in the array in wolvenkit and it workie

coarse sable
#

Yep, got it to work the same way

steady glacier
#

this is the best moment of my life

lofty thistle
#

stick around morning you are very helpful thank you

random owl
#

Giggity ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜†

coarse sable
#

This is with absorption back (set to 0.2, why not)

#

Everything appears to be working like this

random owl
#

๐Ÿ˜ฎ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

lofty thistle
#

can we just....

#

add 2018 variables????

#

like get rid of the game's default stuff and replace it with 2018

#

I'll experiment with it over the weekend :0

#

also do some stuff using weathers as containers

#

you see, 2018 used "containers"

#

where they imported envparams into the env, so they could revert to engine defaults at will

random owl
#

God damn you guys are sooo damn close. It's been fucking awesome watching this come together.

coarse sable
#

Don't know much about containers and such lol, but I've come across them, yeah. My only real experience is playing around with env's, mostly blindly. But I figured 010 could cram the value in, so I gave it a shot.

steady glacier
#

I FUCKING LOVE THE YEAR OF THE NEON GOD 2018 GOD BLESS THE CREATORS OF DEMO AND R18 AMEN

lofty thistle
#

scattering adds stuff

#

realy cool

steady glacier
random owl

๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ˜ญ

coarse sable
#

That with RT? Don't have that myself cries in GTX

#

Doesn't look broken or anything

lofty thistle
#

nope

coarse sable
#

Should see how it works with RT

lofty thistle
#

it works great

coarse sable
#

Damn

#

Amazing

random owl
#

@lofty thistle what're you rocking gpu wise?

lofty thistle
#

RTX 3070

#

fog looks good now

random owl
#

10-4๐Ÿ‘

steady glacier
#

we legit need to frame by frame compare the demo and R18 now that we have scattering, it'll literally look exactly the same once everything is tweaked

lofty thistle
#

look at this :)

steady glacier
#

HOLY FUCK

coarse sable
#

Holy crap

steady glacier
#

ITS LITERALLY THE DEMO

lofty thistle
#

thank you morningspice

random owl
#

Yup it definitely will. Freaking nuts how quickly y'all got this together and working.

steady glacier
#

this is crazy

lofty thistle
#

waiting for lexar to come back

steady glacier
#

I have lost every one of my marbles broskis

coarse sable
#

Welcome, but it really was just a stroke of luck on my part.

random owl
#

Master MorningSpice the scatter slayer๐Ÿ™

#

๐Ÿ˜†

steady glacier
#

now all thats left is tweaking it all

#

to look exactly like demo

#

and then perfection

lofty thistle
steady glacier
#

BROO

#

THATS ACTUALLY CRAZY

random owl
#

Fr

steady glacier
#

IT SHINES EXACTLY THE SAME AS DEMO

lofty thistle
#

and lexar, i have the sun position

steady glacier
lofty thistle
#

it's actually correct though

steady glacier
coarse sable
#

Scattering really was it, damn. We're lucky CDPR kept the value alive in some way.

lofty thistle
#

yup

#

5:20 is even better than 5:15

steady glacier
#

@lofty thistle @coarse sable I love you

lofty thistle
steady glacier
#

This is actually the best mod imo

#

for this game

#

and it's not even close to being out yet

coarse sable
#

You can love me, but gotta love Null and Lexar more

lofty thistle
#

SHTU UP

steady glacier
#

it's true

#

I am right once again

steady glacier
#

imo

#

it's up to them though

lofty thistle
#

NOPE

#

im not gonna be dravic

#

you are all gonna be creditd

#

dont worry

steady glacier
#

I do not deserve credits though I am just funny man who sits here making jokes and saying "hmmm"

lofty thistle
#

fr

steady glacier
lofty thistle
#

but wirdly enough, screenspace effects look way better with R18

#

with R19, RT looks so good

#

I plan to release this mod by halloween, btw

sharp bone
#

He deserves more then a shoutout honestly. He cracked the light source that no one has been able to truly replicate from the demo yet. Of course Null and Lexar have been so close but now this is just beyond accurate.

steady glacier
#

It's because RTX wasnt a thing

#

when demo was made

lofty thistle
#

yeah but still

#

you said visual upgrades from vanilla + 2018 = good

lofty thistle
#

but you're wrong with RT

steady glacier
#

Yeah nah I mean visual as in like

#

scene detail

#

and character models

#

lighting was better in 2018 for sure

sharp bone
#

Nexus will shit itself when you post this and see the lighting itself accurate one to one with e3 pics

lofty thistle
#

oh ok

coarse sable
lofty thistle
#

well morning, you are literally better than CDPR, literally

#

I tried asking them every way possible and never got back to me sad

steady glacier
lofty thistle
#

HHAAHAHAH

#

yeah

steady glacier
#

would be funny as shit

lofty thistle
#

especially with night

#

lexar has night literally perfect

sharp bone
#

Yeah but you still cracked it. Even the simplest of things can be difficult and have a huge impact. You have become the key to this and I give you HUGE props

coarse sable
#

CDPR might not even remember scattering lol

steady glacier
sharp bone
lofty thistle
#

I'll add this to github

sharp bone
#

Yes please. Im eager to play around

steady glacier
lofty thistle
#

now every single scene looks fucking amazing

#

I'll do one more thing though

coarse sable
sharp bone
#

Ooooo its been 4 years bois but we got em

steady glacier
#

like actually

sharp bone
#

Morning is a god

steady glacier
#

we need a demo and mod comparison rn outside of V's apartment

#

with scattering

lofty thistle
steady glacier
#

I meant video

#

like

#

retracing demo steps

sharp bone
#

Also we forgot the major props as well too @gray glacier for finding the settings

lofty thistle
steady glacier
#

who needs rt when you have demo light scattering

lofty thistle
#

still not up-to-date to lexar branch

#

but he's not on :(

steady glacier
#

LEXAR

#

WAKE YO ASS UP G

#

WE JUST MADE DEMO VISUALS A REALITY AND THIS MF SLEEPIN

steady glacier
#

true

#

I think I did stop a few heads from exploding

sharp bone
#

Holy fuck Im in love

coarse sable
#

Same, the scattering looks great

#

Gamechanger in my eyes

steady glacier
#

I don't think people realize how rare it is to have every single visual feature of an e3 showcase work in the base game

#

thats like never before seen type shit

sharp bone
#

I think we are offically at the point where we can say we are playing the game with how it would have looked with 2018 lighting. And not just up to interpretation.

steady glacier
#

well yeah because it's literally using all the demo shit

#

so it is absolutely the most accurate

#

only thing left is tweaking

lofty thistle
#

stay tuned for R18.C, a little fork while lexar is away :)

sharp bone
lofty thistle
#

R18.Container, which uses the 2018 method (envparam containers)

steady glacier
#

why the fuck wasnt lighting just kept like this

#

CDPR seething rn

chrome ore
#

fug that looks good

sharp bone
#

Honestly its better then the rtx lighting

coarse sable
#

they wanted us to do it ourselves, for a sense of pride and accomplishment

gray glacier
#

How are things lookin' people?

sharp bone
#

and even stuff like extra shadows

chrome ore
#

Wait, wasn't the initial demo this was based on like......just a mockup? None of it was in game.

lofty thistle
#

all in-engine and ingame

#

fake news are a real drug

chrome ore
lofty thistle
#

ain't it

#

i trace that rumor back to some angry people accusing CDPR lmao

sharp bone
#

It was in engine. Just a pre made area for the demo. But in engine which is why we are actually using those settings now

gray glacier
#

Mod's Improvising when I showed you guys the pics huh?

#

๐Ÿ™‚

sharp bone
#

Lighting is even helping the roads I was critical of to look better as well

#

Yup we are using the actual e3 scattering lighting you found earleir

gray glacier
#

Heh heh heh! That oughta worked like the charm! I am so proud of myself

lofty thistle
#

Well, we didn't use your implementation

#

just inserted the variable in for ourselves

gray glacier
#

Ik

#

I helped you guys find the file

sharp bone
#

You should be proud. Everyone should be. This complete product will blow peoples mind. Cause it is the actual demo

be 010 wizard
see guys struggling
help
refuses to elaborate

steady glacier
#

fixes unfixable cdpr issue in 5 seconds
refuses to elaborate
leaves

sharp bone
#

Only one issue I found was some Translucent bug on characters. But not a big deal probably some character lighting settings can now be disabled to fix it.

lofty thistle
#

probably rim lighting

#

fuck rim lighting

#

all my homies hate rim lighting

gray glacier
#

Yeah, people be like: Fix CP2077
Us: Fine, We'll do it ourselves

steady glacier
#

they only cut all the shit from the demo so modders could up their rep and donation points

#

smart way to give back to the community

#

ty cdpr

lofty thistle
#

@acoustic sandal

dreamy arrow
#

im just here watching

lofty thistle
#

yes spicy keep doing it

#

come back lexar, we need you

#

add scattering to your env blsssss

steady glacier
#

even Spicy lurkin rn

gray glacier
#

Yeah Lexar!

steady glacier
#

serious E3 energy

lofty thistle
#

still have to correct mid-day look tho

#

let's just make the sun yellow all day

steady glacier
#

yeah this is the part that'll require lots of small tweaks and reverts and shit

#

to get it close

sharp bone
#

yup was throwing that around earlier locking time of day until 8pm

#

I dont know how much progress Lexar made on that

random owl
#

Holy fuck I wanna cry this looks absolutely amazing on my TV RN

sharp bone
#

I know

coarse sable
#

I left to gawk at the scattering, kind of want to try adding it to the normal env and see how it looks

#

It's no E3 but damn they should've kept that at least

sharp bone
#

cant even describe just how all around better the lighting is. No out of place shadows or random dark areas or anything like that so far. It actually seems more accurate

steady glacier
#

WHY THE FUCK DID THEY CHANGE LIGHTING URHGHRHHRGEHRHHRHRGRHRH

random owl
#

@sharp bone for real. I'm walking around now just drooling.

#

Jackie's screaming at me "what gotta take a piss" because I left him at the noodle stand๐Ÿ˜†

sharp bone
#

haha same

#

Nope just are you seeing this fucking lighting Jackie. You can wait lol

steady glacier
#

JACKIE, YOURE PALE.. LIKE A CORPS- oh wait, thats just the restoration of scattering on your face

random owl
#

It just looks so dirty and polluted now. It's fucking glorious.

#

@steady glacier ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

#

For real ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ fucker can sit and eat his noodles

acoustic sandal
#

Calm down people, I don't like to release anything by half! I want something perfect...
I emailed Marcin, got the answer to ask someone from CDPR and guess what? Read and unanswered message about the fucking sun

lofty thistle
#

what did i do

#

jk

#

this is how the game looks without an env

#

using all engine defaults

#

has its moments though

#

this looks genuinely beautiful

#

just goes to show, no matter how much you try to make this game look bad, it will beat you

#

hell, even lighting looks better than vanilla sometimes

lofty thistle
#

?

#

time to set up a container

steady glacier
#

it'd be funny as shit if this mod actually gets recognized by CDPR

lofty thistle
#

it probably will

#

we'll be surfing nexus' #1 for a month straight, mark my words

acoustic sandal
#

Look at this file and see if you're lucky with it
base\gameplay\game_time.curveset

steady glacier
gray glacier
sharp bone
random owl
#

I just wanna walk around rn and look. I've dreamed of this since I saw that damn demo back in 2018. Fuck

lofty thistle
#

do it at 5pm

#

you can download it rn

gray glacier
#

And when the mod is ready, It's your lucky day

#

Also

lofty thistle
#

well

#

since scattering worked by just bruteforcing it

#

my hypothesis now is to simply bruteforce every variable in 2018 envparam

#

in R18.C

gray glacier
#

What if I told you that with both Base game and E3 AI you can customize it

#

Using wolvenkit

lofty thistle
#

wdym

steady glacier
#

so this will literally just be the demo if we can bruteforce it, with almost no tweaking needed, right?

lofty thistle
#

that's what i tihnk

lofty thistle
#

im a brainlet though so don't take my words at first sight

coarse sable
#

What other variables are there in the 2018 stuff?

sharp bone
#

Hope its that simple. But I know it will get there since we are already here.

lofty thistle
#

im almost thinking of just copying an E3 file i have into the container

gray glacier
#

All you gotta do is locate the AI files somewhere at Base/Gameplay/AI

#

And found this

#

In that case

#

Maybe

#

But MAYBE

#

We can restore the AI we were advertised

lofty thistle
#

@acoustic sandal so marcin is the one who worked on envs?

steady glacier
#

with the retextures, ai, etc

gray glacier
#

Yeah

#

Merry Early Christmas yall

#

This mod is gonna become number one in nexus

#

Also modify the chicken-like AI from the NPCs

#

That would ofc make this mod into a whole ass AIO game overhaul

sharp bone
#

Yeah current lighting cant touch this.

#

e3 for the win and its from 4 years ago.

acoustic sandal
#

I just want to keep it like this all the time during the day

sharp bone
#

yup

random owl
#

@acoustic sandal facts

steady glacier
#

I love you guys

#

keep shooting for perfection

steady glacier
#

you'll do it

lofty thistle
#

there IS NO DIFFERENCE

gray glacier
#

Aww thanks @steady glacier

#

Making the mother of all omelettes here Jack.

#

Us

#

We are bringing back the E3 we wanted

#

And we're gonna enjoy shitting on CDPR for what they did to us

stone timber
lofty thistle
#

it's redmod

#

so just use manual

#

and deploy with wolven

gray glacier
#

Also

stone timber
#

should u do that with all red mod games

#

mods

gray glacier
#

I'm gonna need assistance with editing the AI tho

coarse sable
#

Whoa, I don't really want to shit on CDPR. After all, they left in scattering.

gray glacier
#

Ik just saying

#

That we are gonna do what CDPR is too lazy to do

coarse sable
#

Well, no, I don't think laziness plays a part. Not really.

steady glacier
#

just cause

gray glacier
#

Damn straight

coarse sable
#

CDPR did improve the AI over patches, and they'll be putting in a police system and reworking melee and cyberware. Plus they're working on the expansion. It ain't laziness.

gray glacier
#

Okay... sorry mate.

#

Well at least we're doing god's work

#

Thanks to me that I helped you guys locate the E3 files

#

Plus the AI folder

#

This mod is gonna be my favorite

#

Of all time

#

So yeah no shit. I found the AI folder from Base/Gameplay folders

#

And we could use it to edit the AI from headless chickens to best AI to make the most believable city like advertised

#

Maybe

#

Cuz I'll be showin' ya the pics

#

Right now I am resting my eyes from long days work tryna help yall find the E3 files and folders

#

E3 energy's kickin in

R18.C first test imminent

GAME LOADS!!!

random owl
#

D'oh!!๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿผโ€โ™‚๏ธ

coarse sable
#

Said you had to brute force it, right?

gray glacier
#

Ahh shit!

coarse sable
#

Gotta launch it some more

lofty thistle
#

true, true

#

thing is when i said that the game crashed on boot

#

not on load

#

but

#

you're right

#

game is stubborn

#

last time it was five iirc

coarse sable
#

Well, I'm only right sometimes

lofty thistle
#

i'll try one more time

#

if not im just abandoning R18.C

#

I spent 3 hours getting variables to work

#

well shit

#

no work

sharp bone
#

damn

coarse sable
#

Maybe... one more time? sadgecopium

lofty thistle
#

nope

#

scattering works so perfectly

#

also please lexar, we need to merge our branches!!!!

sharp bone
#

What was the time you took the screenshots at earlier Null?. I cant replicate the sun position

lofty thistle
#

5:15pm

sharp bone
#

ok

lofty thistle
#

diner is at like 4:10

sharp bone
#

ahh cool ok want to see about a vid. If I can record it good

lofty thistle
#

yeah i kinda just need lexar to give me his branch so i can upload to github

#

and add scattering to it

sharp bone
#

nice

inner tendon
#

sheesh guys you did it

#

I cannot believe it!!!

#

It's worth stalking this channel every day, all day

#

Did l3x4r merge with you now @lofty thistle ?

lofty thistle
#

no

inner tendon
lofty thistle
#

my same thoughts

inner tendon
#

Can you give me your estimate about the current progress?

lofty thistle
inner tendon
#

You said 50% when you started fuzzothink hidethepain

lofty thistle
#

80%

inner tendon
#

Null, tb I just care less about the precentage. I just wanted your opinion. Only thing that matters that you guys love doing it. And you need to keep the spirit, because that kept us together before launch and that will keep us together now too. It's a miracle that everything is just on track and there are few obsticles. But of course, pros have an easier way peepoez binoculars

lofty thistle
#

my opinion: lexar is being perfectionist

inner tendon
#

You're making history. And thank you for being part of it!

inner tendon
lofty thistle
#

yeah

#

he's showed such good screenshots

#

but

#

every time i ask him to let me add to github

#

he just never answers :(

inner tendon
#

hmm

#

interesting

#

maybe he's just not great as a team member. Maybe he uses a solo build risitas

lofty thistle
#

no, he's using R18, just wants it to be perfect

#

fine, but, at least add to github while you're developing

sharp bone
#

Renamed the Archive's to keep better track of in mod folder and made the R18 experience one with Null's latest build and some extra E3 goodies in there.

#

Also this is a hidden Discord exclusive gem from this server. Replaces the Unity with the Lexington in all scenes and at the start of the Sandra mission.

#

Figured you all would enjoy these

sharp bone
#

Its Nulls R18 mod. The latest build posted here and I bundled it with some more stuff. E3 demo screen and text and intro.

edgy mirage
#

This is the most e3 mod ever

#

Just beautiful to see

Maybe my release todayโ€ฆ Maybe!!

Now seriously, I discovered something amazing for the mod...
you will see soon

acoustic sandal
#

Does anyone know how we can remove some of the shine from cars? I don't know if this has to do with the normal map or the material

#

Final adjustments are being made!

#

Now night, day and everything else will be like the demo

One thing that bothers me is the extreme glare on the cars! I don't use ray tracing anymore because of this...

undone grove

Is there something that works without ray tracing too? With Ray Tracing it's terrible and without it, it's still bad

#

Question : It's possible to have a link for just the UI of 2018 like it's display in your demo ? IT'S BEAUTIFUL !

coarse sable
#

That'd be this mod here

gray glacier
#

Also E3 Compass works great with that mod ^

#

And E3 Nameplates

twin saffron
#

It's magnificent ! Thanks a lot ^^

random owl
lofty thistle
#

hmm????

#

what is that

#

says i dont have access

coarse sable
#

It's a link to the other modding server, to a mod restoring the E3 appearance of Dex's bodyguard

random owl
#

Just a little add on for that E3 feel๐Ÿ‘Œ

#

Oleg without all that face stuff like in the E3 trailer

#

It's in the discord exclusives tab

sick sable
#

To add on to RESTORE 2018 and other e3 2018 mods, Iโ€™m trying to learn how to mod and recreate the scanner back in the 2018 demo

#

To give the game the absolute 2018 feeling

random owl
#

That'd be so sweet omg

sick sable
#

But as of rn I have no clue how to do it

#

But Iโ€™ll try

lofty thistle
#

spicy does hud

#

iโ€™ll try to get red stuff

royal ingot
#

@lofty thistle i requested someone to do the 2018 scanner, spicy took it and said he wont do it

#

probably was being sarcastic but idk

#

then i decided to try and do it myself instead

undone grove
sick sable
#

Yeah

random owl
#

Sittin here going over the E3 trailer and noticed no one has done anything for replacing Viktors glasses๐Ÿค” hmmm

sick sable
#

Maybe itโ€™s from the lighting?

acoustic sandal
#

Last time he got a lot of information from the Militech training room
Not is env...

random owl
#

๐Ÿคž they actually get back to you

random owl
#

Who made the "work in progress - does not represent the final look of the game"mod in some your screenies L3X4R? Is it available for download? I kinda remember seeing it the discord exclusives tab like over a year ago maybe? Or I also could be tripping๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜†

acoustic sandal
#

This is no longer available

sharp bone
#

there is a red scanner mod as an optional file in Spicy's clean hack screen mod. Have been using it for a while

sick sable
#

Yeah thatโ€™s the one

sharp bone
#

Its not completely like the e3 one as it doesnt have the green outline and the info text the same but the color is there

#

Oh its actual different color outlines for different things. Never noticed that

sharp bone
sharp bone
#

Uffa. Means alot of people will look at this mod when it comes out

#

Also its moving up the nexus popular list as well

acoustic sandal
#

I figured out how we can fix up the scene for Sandra's first mission...
I just need the correct file streamingsector

lofty thistle
#

hmm

#

yes exactly

#

streaming sector doesn't have much to do with it i think

#

look at the .quest files

acoustic sandal
#

It doesn't make much sense to look at the quest, as these files have similar values to an env
Look at the Militech training room

undone grove
acoustic sandal
#

For some reason CDPR left that place very dark!

lofty thistle
#

I think it uses fixed exposure parameters

acoustic sandal
#

Final adjustments...
Original CDRP values

#

I hadn't thought of that!

#

I remember that in the first versions of the game, everything was very clear there, now it's extremely dark, there's not much to do, because if you change it there, you'll ruin the rest of the game

acoustic sandal
steady glacier
#

cool

lofty thistle
#

umm lexar remember we're collabing

#

i gotta have a say in at least somethin g lol

steady glacier
#

it's almost like 2 different projects rn lmao

lofty thistle
#

yup

#

and for some reason lexar won't let me contribute to his version Sadge

#

@acoustic sandal, have you added scattering to your env?

acoustic sandal
#

EVERYONE here will get the credits, especially you Null, because you inspired me and told me which file to use

lofty thistle
#

if you give it to me i'll send it back with scattering ;)

acoustic sandal
#

Okay, this quest takes place overnight in the demo, so we have the same look.

steady glacier
#

like scattering

#

that you'll need to adjust for

acoustic sandal
#

What does this do exactly, because I have original values now, all of them

steady glacier
#

before the game had rtx

lofty thistle
#

good stuff

#

makes it look like this without any of your tweaks!

#

I found it looking in an old version of 010 template

#

for some reason it had it while new ones don't show it conwayshrug

acoustic sandal
#

I just need to make small adjustments, because it's 99% finished, so I can send it to you and you can apply those values

#

Just a minute!

lofty thistle
#

Yup

sharp bone
#

@acoustic sandal It does effect global. Just have to clear up the noise. I think its volumetric issues

sharp bone
#

Yeah umm too much values lol

undone grove
#

Strange... I found streamingsectors for Sandra's quest interior. Meshes, decals, collisions and so on, but nothing related to the lighting(like envprobe or something like that)

#

@viral dew Can you help maybe?

viral dew
#

Interior lighting is baked

#

You can't change that

#

The rescue mission has windows that let light in using light channeling that's why you see it changing when you change the env otherwise it's baked

#

Now to what I mean by baked

#

I mean that nothing controls the baked lighting it's all pre baked when you hit build in the engine

#

Every update the game lighting gets rebaked

#

This means every update the lighting mod might look off and there is nothing you can do about it

#

Cdpr didn't do the lighting for cp77 they hired a studio that did it for them the 2018 demo lighting is their own in studio lighting

lofty thistle
#

huh, so it's impossible to get 2018 sun pos?

viral dew
#

If it's not strictly baked then yes

#

If it's strictly baked like the prebaked gi then probably no

lofty thistle
#

well

#

we're trying to change the env they use for the sandra mission

viral dew
#

I don't do lighting mods anymore so don't ask my anything I don't remember anymore xd

viral dew
lofty thistle
#

yup

viral dew
#

That's most likely baked and doesn't have a env

steady glacier
lofty thistle
#

it does, though

viral dew
lofty thistle
#

you're a quest guy

#

bls hlep

viral dew
#

I didn't take a look at the rescue apartment so I have no idea if it uses a separate env or if it's a pre baked gi box with light channels

steady glacier
viral dew
steady glacier
viral dew
#

Hiring a studio who is specialized in doing lighting for video games is the better option when you have no time to spend on fixing lighting bugs

steady glacier
#

I guess but the base game lighting looks pretty poor, obviously that's subjective, but still

viral dew
#

Yeah that's pretty objective

#

People do like unfinished stuff ngl 420KNG

#

Can't say much LinusHigh

steady glacier
#

I don't even mean in terms of technology I just mean from a pure visual standpoint

#

which is subjective

viral dew
#

Also 2018 demo night city was pretty different

#

We have 3 versions of nc

#

1 for the one we have currently

#

And for the 2019 demo

#

2018 demo NC which is 1.2 or 1.1 if I'm not wrong

steady glacier
#

2018 one wasnt even a city

#

it was legit just the playable area of the demo

viral dew
#

Then NC 1.0 which is the oldest one

#

We are on night city 1.3

#

Can see a sign saying that in the badlands and the nomad starting intro

sharp bone
#

Think Im getting somewhere

viral dew
#

The expansion maybe

steady glacier
#

maybe

#

or 2088

lofty thistle
viral dew
steady glacier
#

kratos plox remake the entirety of NC to look like 2018 demo

lofty thistle
#

pretty please?

viral dew
#

It's somewhere in cdprs own versioning system

#

Should bully fuzzo for it

lofty thistle
#

why can't fuzzo just leak the entire source code again and all versions in the system smh my head

viral dew
#

I dunno you should ask him 420KNG

viral dew
lofty thistle
#

yup

#

it's pretty close

#

and i think it's the closest we can get

viral dew
#

Warm colors

undone grove
sharp bone
#

Yeah

#

I toned down volumetric a bit to get rid of the noise. But trying to figure out the size without filling the whole sky like a storm 24/7

viral dew
#

Also just a tip

#

Take a look at the source code that came with redmod

#

Might find something useful regarding the sun in there evilkermit

sharp bone
#

hmm Null and Lexar thats a job for you lol

sick sable
#

Off topic but I found that the weapon wheel was different and looked this โฌ‡๏ธ

sharp bone
#

oh wow. Where did u find that?

sick sable
#

The 2018 demo vid

sharp bone
#

ohh I never noticed that

steady glacier
#

that looks so much better than final lmao

sick sable
#

Itโ€™s very fast

#

Itโ€™s easy to miss

lofty thistle
#

Kind of putting R18 on hold for now. Working on Vยณ now, a lite colorgrading mod which enhances vanilla graphics

lofty thistle
#

We're basically done

#

Lexar has done everything he can

#

same as me

steady glacier
#

oh I thought that was a joke

sharp bone
#

Did lexar send his stuff to you?

lofty thistle
#

Yup, and it's really full

sharp bone
#

ohh updated build?

lofty thistle
#

I think he even got a fully filled out env from CD Projekt

steady glacier
#

yeah once scattering is added to his

#

it'll be done

lofty thistle
#

Already has :)

steady glacier
sharp bone
#

nice Ill check

steady glacier
lofty thistle
#

Hasn't been added to github, need to refactor stuff first

sick sable
sharp bone
#

Ahh ok

sick sable
#

Thatโ€™s the time stamp

#

Itโ€™s there for like a second

sharp bone
#

Ill finish up trying to make the clouds rounder and then Ive done about what I can as well. Roads look more then good with the current lighting

lofty thistle
#

I restored 2020 lut to vanilla, and used HDR even for SDR, looks amazing compared to vanilla

coarse sable
#

E3 2018's sky used 2D clouds iirc, different mesh entirely

sharp bone
lofty thistle
steady glacier
coarse sable
#

Definitely getting there, gotta flatten those clouds ๐Ÿ˜…

sick sable
lofty thistle
sharp bone
steady glacier
lofty thistle
#

still as @viral dew said, it might not look the same as demo due to lighting being changed

sharp bone
lofty thistle
#

and also Lexar thinks it's a different engine version (which it is) and it was scripted (which it was) so we can't conceivably get it to look exact.

sick sable
coarse sable
#

Doesn't max RT disable baked lighting? I might just be remembering wrong. If it doesn't, maybe Nvidia's new mode will do it.

viral dew
lofty thistle
#

I mean different capabilities

#

no RT at that time

viral dew
#

They work on the engine before they start making things

#

Like engine version is 1.8 and game version is 1.6

#

When cp77 released engine version was 1.3

#

So the 2018 is pre 1.0

lofty thistle
#

exactly what im saying

viral dew
#

And you know

#

The expansion teaser looks better than what we have currently 420KNG

#

And that was in game footage

lofty thistle
#

yupppp

#

lights aren't puke colored PogChamp

undone grove
#

who knows

viral dew
lofty thistle
#

YEAH

steady glacier
#

RL

#

restore liberty demo trailer

viral dew
#

So expect the lighting to be changed with the expansion

steady glacier
#

doubt it

#

might just be lighting for that specific expansion area

coarse sable
#

I doubt your doubt

sharp bone
#

Isnt RT override the same effects but just more efficent? Idk their showcase confused me lol

steady glacier
viral dew
#

Lighting already got changed in 1.6 420KNG

#

Dunno if you notice it

steady glacier
#

didn't notice

#

still looks bad

sharp bone
#

Hmm wonder if thats why the issues with Gpu usage and fps

lofty thistle
#

fr

coarse sable
#

What did they change? Been awhile since I played 1.5, so I wouldn't be able to tell.

#

It didn't look any different.

steady glacier
#

^

#

even the liberty trailer only looks slightly sifferent, and a lot of it could just be post fx or area specific

coarse sable
#

They should put scattering back angery

#

Nah I thought PL looked more than just slightly different

lofty thistle
#

scattering and absorption work so well together even though they do the same thing

steady glacier
#

but maybe it'll be different

lofty thistle
#

only difference i saw was that lights weren't puke colored anymore

#

and white

viral dew
#

Dunno looks good to me 420KNG

coarse sable
#

Idk, it looks better than the current lighting

#

I don't think that sky is in the current game

lofty thistle
#

no it isn't, clouds also look different

steady glacier
#

at least it got rid of green filter

lofty thistle
#

it's very light modification though

sharp bone
#

Oh before you call it for a while on r18 null

#

Idk if you saw these but exposure issue with the no tell motel

#

When walking in and out

#

Only place ive seen so far that does it

steady glacier
#

turns out making your game vomit green looks like shit

#

the more you know

lofty thistle
#

Vยณ is subtle, but you can see the difference

pale bison
#

2019 mod was abandoned?

steady glacier
#

V9

coarse sable
#

gib Vยณ PeepoGimme

steady glacier
lofty thistle
#

maybe calibrate your monitor because on mine it looks wayyy different

steady glacier
coarse sable
#

Vanilla+ in Cyberpunk??

viral dew
#

Or maybe you are just smoking the cheap shit 420KNG

lofty thistle
#

Yup, Vanilla+ lighting mod

#

impossibleu

#

btw, night is wayyy different

#

no more puke filter Pog

steady glacier
#

what if liberty actually does change vanilla lighting

#

then it'll make v3

#

useless

#

sorta

viral dew
#

It will make most lighting mods look off

steady glacier

r18 broke on launch week

Vยณ (first) vs Vanilla (second)

steady glacier
#

vanilla looks better imo

lofty thistle
#

look at the top though

#

the building in Vยณ looks actually lit normally

steady glacier
#

Yeah you got rid of that weird filter thingy

#

and the lights look normal

lofty thistle
#

so vanilla still looks better?

steady glacier
#

it has more depth yeah

#

v3 looks too washed out

coarse sable
#

I prefer the more "washed out" look, vanilla looks too vibrant to me

lofty thistle
#

EXACTLY

#

and also V3 just has better colorgrading entirely

steady glacier
coarse sable
#

Eh, it looks how I think it ought to. Vanilla has a whole vibrant, harsh look to it, which would be fine, but it's overdone. Null's oranges and yellows are also an improvement.

lofty thistle
#

this guy gets it

sharp bone
#

Nah V3 looks better

steady glacier
#

it's all subjective

#

even if I don't like how it looks, null will prob make it look as good as he can

sharp bone
#

yup

acoustic sandal
#

Release will be delayed, still discovering cool stuff

broken harbor

looks great man

Want more E3 Files or you guys good?

acoustic sandal

If they can be used, they are welcome.

sharp bone

This about the best I can do for the clouds

timid hemlock
sharp bone
#

@timid hemlock Its not a mod I did though. Its a combination of Spicy's E3 Hud and Compass and Huditor to move them around however you want. I just made it look like both 2018's and 2019's Hud.

#

All of them are on Nexus

timid hemlock
#

aight, looks pretty nice. what about the red mph/kph tho? mine seem to be stuck blue with e3hud etc

sharp bone
#

Are you using e3 2018 hud colors?

timid hemlock
#

yup. latest

sharp bone
#

Thats why. Just use the stock colors that already come with Spicys's mod and not the extra hud color mod

#

And then mostly everything will be red

timid hemlock
#

oh I meant the latest e3 spicyhud. no idea about any extra colors. ffs maybe im just bugged lol. the reticle wont appear either

sharp bone
#

Oh ok hmm it should just be red as it comes. The only time it changed to blue for me was when I tried the Hud colors which is a seperate mod

#

Some icon mods can also change of colors of things

#

So just go through and see if anything looks like it could alter it and try getting rid of it.

timid hemlock
#

๐Ÿ‘ aight, ty for the answer

sharp bone
#

No prob. Hope you figure it out

steady glacier
#

@acoustic sandal pls upload your build on github

๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

holy shit just tried light scattering for the first time on my own

#

goes so hard

#

way better than RTX

#

wtf

random owl
#

I'd love to be able to recover like 20fps if I can.๐Ÿ˜† It'd be cool if there were like 2 different version. One for RTX and for just regular rasterization.

steady glacier
#

eh RTX isn't need for the mod at all with scattering enabled

#

needed*

#

it actually looks better with RTX off

#

may leave reflections on though

random owl
#

No way in hell an I upgrading to a damn 4000 series. I'd rather get a 3090 ti. At least if the price is right. The damn 12gb 4080 has like 3000 less cuda cores and only 192 bit bus. That's just sad.

#

You mean nulls Latest building?

#

Build**๐Ÿ™„

steady glacier
lofty thistle
#

lexar's doing his own stuff

#

im just taking it ez now

steady glacier
#

the demo was made before RTX so it had a really lightweight scattering solution that looks better than RTX imo

random owl
#

No shhhit?! I left RTX on with it! Fuck if I can get those frames back that'd kick so much ass!

steady glacier
#

it's the same technique in the demo

#

it's what makes the light look so good

random owl
#

I will leave raytraced reflections on though. I hate the way SSR looks. It's come a long way but still looks like dog shit compared to raytraced reflections.

steady glacier
#

yeah same

#

Imma turn off everything aside from reflections

lofty thistle
#

Vยณ has scattering too

steady glacier
#

based

random owl
random owl
steady glacier

no

latest E3 build with scattering runs like 20 fps faster for me than vanilla with RTX off on both

clearly the lighting change in vanilla was for the best!
