Golden Autumn Redux and my own Reshade (both of them are available in #🖇old-mods-posting )

[clever badger]

how'd you get your trees/grass to look so good???

[ember harbor]

@clever badger only installed expedition

and ofc took out the autumn vegetation stuff that comes with gamma

[clever badger]

ye what did you take out specifically?

rn my game looks like this

[ember harbor]

this

[clever badger]

BET

[ember harbor]

the first thing I did was turn these off when I installed gamma lmao

[sinful sage]

[thin ocean]

you know, I don't think I'm supposed to be able to do this.

@noble flicker

[sick seal]

where can I find my screenshots?

[lilac sand]

in your Anomaly directory, Appdata folder

[sick seal]

not finding anything there, nothing in the folder that the game tells me it saved to either

it's saying bin/./anomalydx11avx but that doesn't exist

[fickle nimbus]

That's a strong right arm you got there stalker

[thin ocean]

It's in Mod Organizer's Overwrite

[sinful plinth]

In Tarkov, thats we call a "cursed gun"

[cinder trench]

the 30fps is real

gdi

[exotic pewter]

I installed Golden Autumn and the added color is very nice

I wanted to use those old Summer to Autumn textures I got back when I was in the EFP discord since thats exactly the time of year it is, but they caused crashes. wcyd.

[cinder trench]

finally found a look i like that gets me 55-60fps

[noble flicker]

it's a feature, as long as you ignore reloading

[waxen umbra]

may i have the preset?

[cinder trench]

i reinstalled default reshade

and am just using these 4

QXAA is a custom fx i got from googling a new solution for my AA

[burnt forge]

MXAO... are you having issues with UI?

[cinder trench]

i have it set pretty low so its not as obvious

but yes, they do go through uis

[manic thunder]

What mod?

[cinder trench]

ive found a new appreciation for dithering effect

i like it better than filmgrain

[fringe sparrow]

me when....

[cinder trench]

me when i find an unmarked stash with no loot

[fringe sparrow]

Me when I load in front of a psuedogiant.

🥹

[sour barn]

what specs are you guys running for these graphics??

[obsidian harness]

Gotta hit f12 instead of print screen

[austere pendant]

hey uhm, where does the game save the screenshot to with f12?

oh wait

nvm just found them

[rancid bloom]

thank you, i can see how to do the golden autumn but the torrent just keeps connecting and as for reshade i already have it installed do i need to just change presets or like get another reshade?

[jovial cedar]

Goodle drive link should still work right ?

Nope, you should be good, can I just see your Reshade effects window to make sure everything is correct ?

[verbal sundial]

STALKER, Metro Exodus Edition.

[rancid bloom]

alright currently downloading the google drive one

imma open gam

[jovial cedar]

Make sure you disabled others first

And deleted shader cache

[rancid bloom]

im still downloading the google drive one im just gonna go screenshot my reshade settings

[jovial cedar]

Oh sure thing

[rancid bloom]

is this what you meant

iv downloaded the redux pack now too so ill go through those steps i did also download the expedition one but that looks way too hard for me lmao

[jovial cedar]

Yeah, that's GAMMA's default reshade

[rancid bloom]

so do i just like find another preset?

or go ahead and install redux

[jovial cedar]

First, install redux, then afterward, see what preset you want to look for

[rancid bloom]

do i get both

[jovial cedar]

Only 01

[cinder trench]

ye this game super comfy and definitely hooked me

[open vessel]

messed around with some graphic settings

[rancid bloom]

alright installed and running still using gamma reshade

i would like some other options or color gradings but im clueless lmao

[jovial cedar]

This is not Golden Autumn nor Autumn Season though

[rancid bloom]

waiiiit

i dont think i ticked it

lmao

lemme try that again

[jovial cedar]

Delete shader cache

Before launching again

[rancid bloom]

alright so iv ticked both goldem autum and 00 anomal season_s deleted shader cache

do i change these

[jovial cedar]

You deleted it in Anomaly/appdata right ?

[feral steeple]

landed a 4 kill grenade

[jovial cedar]

Just use DX11 AVX, or DX11 if you have a beefy GPU

[jovial cedar]

Nice job x)

[rancid bloom]

yeah deleted it from there, i have a 3070

[jovial cedar]

Use DX11 then

[rancid bloom]

pressed run nothing happened

[jovial cedar]

Can I see your load order ?

[rancid bloom]

uhh

like the numbers in the mods?

[jovial cedar]

Like what you're seeing on MO2

For Golden Autumn

[jovial cedar]

Try DX11 AVX ?

[rancid bloom]

the mod organizer locks for a sec loads then nothing

[jovial cedar]

You have deleted nothing else than shader cache right ?

[rancid bloom]

yeah

[jovial cedar]

Turn off 00 & 01 then try ?

[rancid bloom]

the launcher was not responding in my task manager imma kill it and try again

okay its doing something now lmao

[jovial cedar]

Weird stuff going on x)

[rancid bloom]

alright i think i got it now lmao

[jovial cedar]

Look much more like it yes

[jovial cedar]

Now you could use volumetric lighting in settings and pop up saturation a bit if you want

[rancid bloom]

yeah sweet

so i assume with the autumn redux it can be turned off and on after deleting shader cache while the exp one looks like a whole lot harder and doesnt really look like it can be undone

[jovial cedar]

Yeah, it will be a lot easier this way

[rancid bloom]

so everything else i need is just within reshade?

[jovial cedar]

Yup, all you need now is tune your reshade accordingly or find a preset

[quasi orchid]

if only there were good presets to chose from

[rancid bloom]

hell yeah thank you for the help and being patient with me

[vapid silo]

It's so cloudy today man..

[jovial cedar]

I've never heard of that in my entire life

[quasi orchid]

i know - someone should dive into that subject

[jovial cedar]

Yup, and good luck to that guy with support for new users

[quasi orchid]

just imagine all the BLOOM we could have

phew

[jovial cedar]

BLOOM IS HIGH GRAPHICS

[quasi orchid]

pair that with HD models

... i think i need to go vomit now

[pulsar pine]

Imagine gamma but in VR

[rancid bloom]

into the radius is good

[pulsar pine]

I know but it's graphics suck booty

[rancid bloom]

its recent update has made them better but nothing crazy tho

[pulsar pine]

everything is grey in into the radius

[rancid bloom]

some people are using reshade on it but too get it showing up inside the headset is a whole other thing

[glacial sinew]

Hey where does the game screenshots to? The pop up in chat for me is wrong.

[jovial cedar]

GAMMA RC3/Overwrite/bin

[glacial sinew]

Now only if I felt like destroying my frames to 'beautify' my game with reshade lol.

[obtuse nymph]

These were from... I think, Road to the North with a reshade.

was just wondering if a mod wasen't working, so this is how its supposed to be and it works as intended, great! 😄

[jagged sky]

Is it Autumn in the game, or the leaves are not rendering? 😄

[burnt forge]

You can follow these steps if you don't like it

just another day in the zone, playing with some classic textures 😛

[jovial cedar]

I don't know who waxed the floor but damn that's a good job

[thin ocean]

Those textures

[jovial cedar]

Beautiful shot

[frosty lance]

haha thank you CS Eden, well yea my graphics are a bit unrealistic, too glossy i know, but i like it that way haha

i also use the rtgi shaders from marty fly, they work really really good in this game i think

as a result it can look a bit too glossy yes(wel depents on the settings ofcourse)

[frosty lance]

looks a bit like the project quantum graphics project on the moddb page

i like it

very nice job:P

[rotund linden]

Thx ! I have made an animated main menu with this. I'm curently working on cursor and UI

[frosty lance]

oh if you make this for download, i will look out for it on the moddb page ? ^^ nice work

[rotund linden]

Yes probably on Moddb and linked in mod only posting

still i like it haha

[strange finch]

@jovial cedar looks very good

Getting 60+ fps maxed out at 1440p. Only had to up the gamma to 1.1 and brightness to 1.1 and everything looks perfect

[burnt forge]

Eden's reshade is goated

[strange finch]

The best so far

Other reshades will look amazing in certain shots but fall apart. Most scenes (if not all) with Eden's look amazing

[burnt forge]

One of Eden's 3 rules with his reshades are consistency Oh boy he delivers

[whole panther]

what's your hardware?

[hybrid summit]

maxed out

🧢

And I had this conversation at least 4 times with other people

It's never maxed

Never

Oh

Haven't seen rain in the game yet

If you want to make your game shiny smooth like someone just waxed literally EVERYTHING, you can turn on SSR in your reshade settings

[vestal fiber]

Took some doing but i finally moved all my junk from Rostok to this weird raised house outside the freedom train station in Jupiter

[rapid mural]

Dude needs a sec to contemplate that he's dead.

[jovial cedar]

Yawm ?

[rapid mural]

Ye. Though it's lookin' a little crunchy compared to what I remember, I might give I.N.V.E.R.N.O. a shot to see if it looks a little better.

[jovial cedar]

Well, yeah, Yawm has some good textures but look kinda flat

A better option would be Inverno + Graupel

[rapid mural]

Dunno what that second one is, but I'll give it a look.

[jovial cedar]

Graupel is basically the best option of the three in my opinion but compliment very well Inverno, use the search bar in #🖇old-mods-posting to find both Inverno and Graupel

[rapid mural]

What order would I put Inverno and Graupel in my list? Do they need to go before specific addons that are already present?

[jovial cedar]

See #╟🎑reshades I've written the answer there

[rapid mural]

Ah, gotcha. Thank you.

[jovial cedar]

Graupel should come after Inverno though

[rapid mural]

So like

Inverno
Graupel
Cinematic

[rapid mural]

As such?

[jovial cedar]

Yes

[lunar crane]

Guys project inverno already have Graupel textures

Will be unnecessary double texture load

[rapid mural]

I think it's more for Graupel's options, so you can choose frozen grass or no grass, trees with leaves or without, etc.

[lunar crane]

Yep but ground textures is same

[rapid mural]

I chose my own options for all of it using Graupel so I think it's worth getting them both. xP

[burnt panther]

what's the best reshade mod in y'alls opinions?

[rapid mural]

Depends if you're using a winter mod, autumn mod, summer mod, etc.

[burnt panther]

what about vanilla gamma

[rapid mural]

Dunno, don't play vanilla very often. I have stationary motion blindness so I use winter mods to remove a bit of the issue. xP

[rapid mural]

Uh oh. Game no likey, I guess. I'm getting ctd on boot with this error;
[error]Expression : I
[error]Function : CInifile::Load::<lambda_3825c94a055ba8c00128a7b281b7aba5>::()::<lambda_00202d6eeafb6968914ca7e0e4d804d3>::operator ()
[error]File : Xr_ini.cpp
[error]Line : 332
[error]Description : Can't find include file:

Did I install Inverno wrong perhaps?

It currently comes setup for jgse or whatever that mod enabler is so I have to move files around manually.

[jovial cedar]

Maybe just copy paste Graupel's trees and grass to Inverno and leave the rest ?

But I used MO2 for everything

[rapid mural]

That's what its explorer files look like when I install it.

Do I... just leave it like that? Or do I move the stuff from the MODS folder around?

If it'd be easier I'm down to call in PMs so I can screenshare, if you'd prefer.

[jovial cedar]

Sure, let's do that

Im going to post 2 screenshots with the scope of my sniper

one of them is a "bugged one" but it seems to look better than how it normally looks

can someone tell me/ show me how it looks in their game?

i won't say which is normal and which is "bugged"

[jovial cedar]

Can we have the weapon and the scope in question ?

[bleak cave]

oh yes sorry give me 1 second

i think its kar98, game loading now

[jovial cedar]

Take your time

[bleak cave]

basically my game always look like the second photo, meaning its very blurred, object have like a red/blue tint next to them

mauster 98k but i believe all scopes look like that for me

[iron wing]

Can someone tell me wtf is this thing

[trim gate]

He's just trying to become your Friend?

[iron wing]

Blind playthrough, my heart jumped lol. Had no clue what it was, then the apparition he spawns blacked my screen and made me shoot myself lmao

[trim gate]

Yeah i got jumped by that thing in the Middle of the Night.

Pretty sure its Bloodsucker?

Or at least the evolved Version of something.

And it's Skin is smooth and nice to the Touch lmao.

[jovial cedar]

Looks like a giant psy sucker

[trim gate]

How do you call the Tentacle Faces then?

I thought those are Psy Sucker

[jovial cedar]

Nope, these are bloodsuckers

Tentacles = suck blood

[iron wing]

I was googling for it for a while until I came up upon an video "Every new mutant in anomaly" and yeah it's a Psy sucker

[iron wing]

Middle of the night? Fuck that I ain't stepping outside at night, I'm shitting myself in broad daylight

[trim gate]

You gotta enjoy the Atmossphere of constant pant shitting

[bleak cave]

If you zoom in a little bit you will see near the inside of the edge of the scope the objects will have a red and blue line near them

i thought its a bug but i guess thats how it should look

Stalker is terrifiyng wild wilderness.

Both are good.

[clever badger]

[peak parcel]

Metro Exodus is bit more open like a Stalker game.. And sad new...Metro Exodus animator Andrii Korzinkin, also known as "Nizrok", passed away after succumbing to his wounds following a combat mission. RIP

[torpid mauve]

some stalker devs were the ones working in metro 2033, or smt like that

[obtuse nymph]

😦

And yeah. Metro exoduds was more open ended. Not quite as, but still. Which imho was a good step in the right direction.

Granted.

I can't think of any game that was as open ended as Stalker.

[jovial cedar]

Fallout ?

But not the same atmosphere for sure

[obtuse nymph]

Fallout 1 and 2 at least.

And yeah. Its not the same athmosphere but on the same level still in some degree.

Probably why I remember F2 and F1 so fondly. Because of the freedom you had.

[clever badger]

wow then was this whole area added to agroprom underground?

[torpid mauve]

The sharpness on that gun tho

[trim gate]

Quick Question, is that suppose to look like this?

I ain't complaining just asking if that's from a new update

[jovial cedar]

The new update shouldn't touch Golden Autumn Weathers

But what exactly are you referring too ?

Oh nvm

[trim gate]

The Shining coming through the Trees.

[jovial cedar]

Me blind

Yeah, in Volumetric that happens

[trim gate]

Like i'm just using the Golden Autumn Redux with your ReShade as usual. But that's the first time it looked like this.

[torpid mauve]

cant see shit enjoyer

[jovial cedar]

Maybe there's a fine hole in that tree for a change x)

[trim gate]

But i also finished a complete fresh installation of Vanilla Anomaly + Gamma to make sure i removed all the shit i put into it.

[torpid mauve]

it's probably the weather configuration from autumn redux

[trim gate]

More like walking the same Road for a billion time, but now suddenyl everything looks good and runs smoothly.

[jovial cedar]

There were a few performances updates I believe

[trim gate]

That it will be, i'm just confused why its only now that i can see it. Before it was "just" pretty. BUt thats far better

[trim gate]

Marvelous.

Just to show off why i'm so amazed by it. It's super satisfying to see it like this.

[burnt forge]

I'm glad I switched to Volumetric sun rays honestly

[jovial cedar]

Well it has always looked like this for me xD

[golden fjord]

stunning game tbh

[jovial cedar]

@trim gate

My game hasn't been updated in a bit more than a week

[burnt forge]

[burnt forge]

Now I feel like I have to make my reshade even more unique cause when I look at yours it just reminds me of mine lol

[jovial cedar]

That exactly why I didn't want to involve myself more xD

[jovial cedar]

Search a guy named Kemelvor here is screenshots, his reshade has some uniqueness in a way

[burnt forge]

https://tenor.com/view/writethatdown-gif-5313946

[jovial cedar]

Well, I'm sure you'll discover a way x)

But sometimes you will need extra spicy stuff I guess xD

[trim gate]

Perhaps then it never worked for me. Weird. well anyway more fps for me. And my Boi's are looking dandy

[rapid tide]

I love it

[fringe sparrow]

Thread

[wintry sky]

What shader are you using?

[golden fjord]

just vanilla gamma

haven't changed any video settings other than resolution

Can you send me the link for this reshade / a photo of your settings?? This is beautiful

[burnt forge]

That's the reshade I linked in #╟🎑reshades :P

Told ya, Eden's got it all figured out

Thank you!

[burnt forge]

The one in that picture specifically is the Golden Autumn one btw

My compliment to the chef, it looks amazing, Golden Autumun should be the default version, so gooood!

Would not be fitting Grok's vision

Which is Dead Zone

[torpid mauve]

Aoldri released some test version with it, but i was encountering some weird crashlog, no idea if it is this or firebreath addon

[dark brook]

Down the line people can use what they want though 🙂

But I think not having foliage actually helps a lot for the aliasing 🙂

[jovial cedar]

Well I've followed one of your old post with NVIDIA control panel and it works wonder for me

But yeah, to each their own preferences, except when they say it should be default xD

[proud oak]

then I understand but if we look at chernobyl right now it definitely look green and alive thanks to no human (and radiation). in the end it needs to please the person who plays, and everyone here wants this so its the best 😄

and yeah performances wise, not everyone can afford this, so the more accessible the better

[dark brook]

actual chernobyl don't have psy storms, emissions, nor intense human activity since 10y

[proud oak]

psystorms are not real ?

[jovial cedar]

This is why GAMMA is so good, it's modular like that

[jovial cedar]

The whole C-Consciousness is not real so neither are psy storms

[fringe remnant]

Is there a specific guide to installing reshades? I am new to this game and vanilla is fine but some of these reshades are gorgeous.

Usually guides are provided with any Reshade you could choose, best is to go and ask around 🙂

damn that looks so cool

[jovial cedar]

What winter mod are you using ?

[jovial cedar]

Thank you 💙

[valid bay]

Project INVERNO

[jovial cedar]

Thought so, looking great x)

[burnt forge]

Had to do it

[jovial cedar]

Perfection

[burnt forge]

You guys have all reached perfection over here

The legends say NightCat's reshade will be done 'soon'

[torpid mauve]

thats what the actor as cs in new game looks like

[jovial cedar]

Probably why they can't render him properly x)

Muscles detail is too much x)

[valid bay]

which road is the swamp road in the great swamp

to much swamp

[jovial cedar]

Ah, the famous soon tm

[burnt forge]

Big road under the rail track, goes through the military outpost

[valid bay]

okay gotcha

[valid bay]

perfect i can clear the machine yard at the same time

[jovial cedar]

Good luck ^^

[valid bay]

this mod scares me at night

[jovial cedar]

But you're with the Boys

[shy lily]

just gamma lmao

[jovial cedar]

It sure improved a lot

The sun especially

[shy lily]

its funny how i never touched anything at all and it still looks great

[valid bay]

true
me and the boys boutta reach the machine yard

wish us luck

[jovial cedar]

Already did x)

[valid bay]

the weakest Clear Sky member versus the strongest military member

[jovial cedar]

[honest vigil]

What setups do you guys run to get the game looking this good? I'd imagine you're not overheating from doing so

When I ran just the base shaders I was pushing 76 degrees Celsius

68 with fans on full

[jovial cedar]

Isn't that too much ? Sounds like a cooling issue

[honest vigil]

That's the thing though, games like tarkov or COD or even NFS I can play just fine and not go over 65

[jovial cedar]

What GPU ?

[honest vigil]

With decent settings

1660 Ti

Core i7 16 GB ram

[jovial cedar]

Hmm I'm not sure really, but I know that compared to the other games, this one is not working on multi threads

[valid bay]

ryzen my beloved crying

[jovial cedar]

Yeah, if it was, most of us would be above 100 fps easy

[valid bay]

anyways the boys saga temporarily stopped because anomaly decided to implode but we will be back soon

[valid bay]

Ryzen 3600
AMD Radeon 5600XT
32gb of ram

[honest vigil]

After turning off the base shaders from gamma modpack n such I don't even go over 60C unless there's like 40 things spawned in the world

That's on the mid settings too

So idk

[valid bay]

my gpu hovers around 55-60 at max

mostly 55

[fringe remnant]

Ryzen 7 5800X, White Strix 3070, 64gb ram, get around 75-80fps everywhere but rostok, even in Rostok i can usually get around 45-50.

[jovial cedar]

Rip Dead City

[fringe remnant]

Havent been yet but ive heard

[jovial cedar]

[honest vigil]

I have my fps capped to 74 which when using two different fps counters I keep that number frequently, so idk wtf is going on lol

[valid bay]

Dead City runs fine for me

[tough zinc]

Same

[valid bay]

35fps
And yes that’s good enough for a clear sky enjoyer like me

[tough zinc]

I’m on a 3060

[jovial cedar]

45-60 for me

3060ti

In Dead City

[tough zinc]

Na just 3060

[valid bay]

Radeon my beloved

[tough zinc]

Oh yours is

[jovial cedar]

Yeah x)

[tough zinc]

Hot

[fringe remnant]

Im also on 1440p, not sure if that has too much of an abrupt effect but

[tough zinc]

It will decrease your frames by a bit

Small bit

That’s what make me opt to a 1080p setup

[fringe remnant]

It doesnt usually on most other games, but i also maybe just dont notice it anymore

[honest vigil]

Idk I'm just glad I can even play the game without my PC sounding like a fucking airfryer, so

[tough zinc]

Well it’s because you are rendering more on screen than something would be at 1080 cus ratio

[valid bay]

im so sad

[tough zinc]

Therefor it would be slightly lower in fps

[fringe remnant]

To be fair a 3060 is slightly lacjing for 1440p, doable but would be much more enjoyable to run at minimum a 3070.

[valid bay]

reloading broke the boy's ai

they arent heading to the machine yard anymore

[tough zinc]

My card costed me 500

[fringe remnant]

Thats pretty normal for a 3060 tho, post shortage

[tough zinc]

I bought mine many many months back

Before I even had the thing built

[fringe remnant]

I only paid $900CAD for my white strix 3070 DURING the shortage

[tough zinc]

They are really cheap now

Then I look at the 4090

[valid bay]

nvm the boys ai are back they just decided to walk through an anomaly minefield

[fringe remnant]

4090 is completely unnecessary though

[elder marsh]

4090: how do you enjoy packing an xbox into your computer

[tough zinc]

4090 is not needed

but they are funny

[fringe remnant]

Nvidia is like dodge. When they come up to an issue, just slap a hellcat in it lol

[tough zinc]

always a good choice

[fringe remnant]

Depending who you ask lol

[tough zinc]

[valid bay]

Holy shit the mod didn’t lie about armor pen
4 buckshot to the face and still doesn’t go down

[clever badger]

suppressor specifically for this gun blocks its iron sights....

[tough zinc]

Yeah some handguns have that happen

[little wave]

Your ui looks super clean, are you using any other mod?

[clever badger]

nope its default gamma one

[little wave]

You play in 1440p?

[clever badger]

1080p

[tough zinc]

bout 47 tops in dead city

and thats with increased stalker pop

[pine light]

what mod/reshade do you use for your sun rays?

[fringe remnant]

This screenshot makes me yearn for the winter mod. I think ima do it after work tn

[jovial cedar]

Do you have an exemple of picture ? x) I'm using different setups

[tough zinc]

winter is sexy with edens reshade

[pine light]

or is it just bloom on the sun? yeah! I saved a bunch of ur pics

[valid bay]

why does anomaly cause AMD driver timeouts so fucking often

[pine light]

like is it producing rays? or how do you get it the sun so hard to look at

[torpid mauve]

xray

most stalker mods have the same problem?

i think

[tough zinc]

amd have issues with keeping up with rendering i think

[jovial cedar]

Autumn Season Redux + Autumn Dark trees + my Autumn Reshade, I can look at the sun, it will slightly darken and that's it

[valid bay]

[pine light]

ahhh ty! I'm trying to emulate ur sun with just reshade

[jovial cedar]

Even though on the second picture it's not the final result

[tough zinc]

the first one fantastic

[fringe remnant]

Does it hurt your fps much?

[tough zinc]

doesn't hurt it at all

[jovial cedar]

Autumn Season Redux comes with its own weathers

[pine light]

ok. I'm using skies redux. do u think I can get similar results with that?

[jovial cedar]

Even though GAMMA Weathers made some progress and are looking great right now

[jovial cedar]

It's activated for me, don't know if it's influencing

[valid bay]

Dx9 but forced to run on dx11 sad

[pine light]

what's your preferred bloom reshade?

[jovial cedar]

Yes

[pine light]

like, which shader

[tough zinc]

magic

[jovial cedar]

Haha I know x)

[pine light]

I've been experimenting with GloomAO

[jovial cedar]

Autumn I'm using Magic HDR

Golden I'm using Blooming HDR

[pine light]

cool! ty. Blooming HDR has been a little intense for me

[tough zinc]

o thats right eden, when i was trying out your autumn pack, is there supposed to be like no grass at all or very little

[jovial cedar]

Both with Bloom and Magic Bloom toned down and used in conjunction with other effects

[jovial cedar]

Does it look that way ?

[valid bay]

god now its having a driver timeout just in the menu

[tough zinc]

ill show you what it looks like in yantar

but no

[torpid mauve]

damn, flexing time?

[jovial cedar]

I'm using a fairly high density and 0.8 grass height, + 190-210 rendering distance

[pine light]

I'm struggling with good brightness and darkness levels in my reshade experiments. I like a contrast of bright brights and dark darks

[jovial cedar]

Absolutely xD

[tough zinc]

the ground texture was so brown

[jovial cedar]

I'll give you the final Autumn preset

[tough zinc]

wooo

[pine light]

your ground textures are really nice

[jovial cedar]

Now that's flexing my man

[tough zinc]

ill show you anyway if thats alright with you chief

[jovial cedar]

Sure thing ^^

[meager wasp]

how do you make the game look like that !? plz share your modlist with me

[tough zinc]

damn his does look real good too

such a flexer

[pine light]

do y'all think this is too dark? the sun is behind some clouds

[jovial cedar]

What weather + time

@pine light

[torpid mauve]

mm, kinda hard to see in the shadows, try changing lumscale_amb values

[pine light]

Idk how to find out lol

[jovial cedar]

Use Debug Mode and F7 then 3

[pine light]

ahh I think my amb might be 0.5 rn

[tough zinc]

now just so you know, i only have the brown autumn pack ticked so nothing else is being used

[jovial cedar]

To open Debug Weathers

[jovial cedar]

As intended

[pine light]

I'll check when I get on my PC lol, give me a lil

[jovial cedar]

Sure thing ^^

[meager wasp]

what is kekeleo

[torpid mauve]

iirc, those screenshots were when graupel released + majestic weather

the autumn are golden autumn redux + sharpness and a little of neobloom

[pine light]

whenever I try rtgi my frames drop by like 20-30:(

[torpid mauve]

yeah i wouldn't use rtgi

[jovial cedar]

My way of telling you oh boy

I'm not using RTGI either

[torpid mauve]

huge fps eater + i dont notice anything different lol

[jovial cedar]

It's not good on Stalker

Just like these people using PPFX SSDO & MXAO

[torpid mauve]

my drug is grass shadows

[pine light]

I like pretending like it matters 😂 bragging rights

[pine light]

I do notice a difference tho. the lighting looks slightly more realistic

[jovial cedar]

UI destroying rights xD

[tough zinc]

there it is

[jovial cedar]

You disabled Roadside Lens Flare, Simple Autumn Retexture, Garderner of the Zone, Grulag's Dead Bushes and GAMMA's Weathers ?

[valid bay]

mod works again but now mouse isnt working in game
god the pain of trying to get an ancient game to run properly

[pine light]

me? yes

[tough zinc]

all of it

[pine light]

is gamma weathers only needed for the autumn look?

[jovial cedar]

Oh it was for Synx

Not necessarily

[tough zinc]

its all disabled

[jovial cedar]

Yeah, but I don't why then

Load order ?

[jovial cedar]

I mean, technically GAMMA vanilla is Late Autumn

[tough zinc]

i mean i have it down at the end just so i didn't blow anything up

[jovial cedar]

When you click on it, does it overwrite and being overwritten by anything ?

In MO2 you see that in green and red

Green + and Red -

[tough zinc]

yeah 8 mods

horror overhaul, better rain textures, fdda, BAS, sss, dynamic anomalies, shaders cumulative pack and particles cinematic VFX

[jovial cedar]

Hmm, nothing extraordinary

I'm a bit clueless here x)

[tough zinc]

same

it just kinda looks like plastic but for like no reason?

cache as always deleted beforehand

[jovial cedar]

Try disabling my repack and see what you get

[clever badger]

Sid got some kind of disease

[jovial cedar]

Someone's been shooting the poor pig

[tough zinc]

roger roger

[surreal quail]

New to gamma, is there any addons yall recommend to make the game more visually pleasing?

[tough zinc]

@jovial cedar

[jovial cedar]

Try reinstalling my repack, right click, reinstall and replace

[tough zinc]

you know what it might've been

[jovial cedar]

Load it before Toned Down Eye Adaptation

Honestly not really

I would have to see your settings

Try that

[tough zinc]

when i was downloading the pack it stopped downloading at 800mg because i had hit the limit of what i could download and i had to wait three hours

[jovial cedar]

Careful, it's quite demanding

[tough zinc]

idk if it fucked something up because of that but it continued its download when i was able to click it again

[jovial cedar]

Maybe that could have done something but I doubt so

How heavy is your archive ?

[tough zinc]

autumn?

[jovial cedar]

Yeah

[jovial cedar]

Looks good

Can I see your MO2 load order ?

[tough zinc]

o boy here we go

god bless america

[jovial cedar]

What's A_4K Version thing below ?

[tough zinc]

It’s an upscaled resolution of dead bodies

The static placed ones

[jovial cedar]

Well, I'm not sure if there's an issue there, so try reinstalling it

I'll try the pack myself afterward and see

[tough zinc]

I’ll try it once I’m back from work

[jovial cedar]

Sure thing

[tough zinc]

Strange things could only happen to me

Do you have another version that I could test against it as well just so I’m not crazy?

[jovial cedar]

Not really, but I can put it the exact way it is for me x)

[clever badger]

emissions always look amazing!

and yes Roma Terminator you are right

[tough zinc]

Pls do

[jovial cedar]

Welp, seen that before but nah, not joining, Chad CS for the win

[verbal sundial]

Updated SSS to latest version and applied LVutners edits to make screen space shadows work on static light source

Is it working?
I have no clue
I might have to test it on an actual lamp or something.
Maybe at Sids place

[jovial cedar]

Good shot ^^

[clever badger]

what you have stalker 2 already? xD

[thin ocean]

Changing levels and the weather swaps to clear

[jovial cedar]

Clear weather is inevitable

It is ALWAYS gonna be blinding to some extent

[tough zinc]

that’s why I play with part snowy because it handles the sun a bit better

[thin ocean]

Wish persistent weather wasn't apparently too persistent

chillin

[tough zinc]

Frfr

[torpid mauve]

yeah thats why it wasnt added i ngamma

[tough zinc]

Looking good

Sss is so good frfr

[jovial cedar]

Lauta, you can't compare to the power of the new Expedition

[marble raptor]

ANNOUNCEMENT: Please don't throw your AK down and shoot at it. My screen went wild (flashing lights) before giving me this error message warning for my fellow stalker with epilepsy

[tough zinc]

LMAO

That’s hot

[torpid mauve]

ah yes, how could i forget about gamma ending, the nuke ending

[wind steeple]

hey, would you still happen to have a link for this if it's done?

[jovial cedar]

I have but I just learned a new skill that will make this pack better, so probably I can share the link tomorrow 🙂

[jovial cedar]

Yeah, my eyes got absolutely nuked

[torpid mauve]

SCREENSHOT DUMP TIME

[jovial cedar]

Wait I recognise some of them xD

[wind steeple]

sounds good 👍

[wind steeple]

btw is that just an M4A1?

[tough zinc]

That looks incredible

[thin ocean]

Man's been Fracturized

[tough zinc]

I seen that happen too

Why is that happening

[glad birch]

@lusty shoal yo, so im in dead city, hiding from mercs in an attic and check out how many came after me xdd

even the characters that you interact with, like the traders and technician

[tough zinc]

Yeah they do that

[glad birch]

insane in the membrane

but i shook the heat

[lusty shoal]

Lol nice

[verbal sundial]

Magic handless shell loading

[honest vigil]

bought new supplies lmao

[honest vigil]

howd you get an aimpoint on yours?

you really need an upgrade kit for that?

[bleak cave]

what depth of field do u use?

[peak parcel]

ADOF or CinematicDOF

[waxen harbor]

nice graphics

[thin ocean]

Slightly more visible in whiteout conditions

[jovial cedar]

But the sky is white ? xD

Like completely white

What happened ? x)

[waxen harbor]

rain

[jovial cedar]

My rain isn't looking like that x)

Is it Rain1 ?

[waxen harbor]

yes, i think

[jovial cedar]

Looks better now

Sorry, I'm just used to the people being blinded by their fucking white bloom pixelfest sky

[tough zinc]

some pics with edens autumn pack and resahde

[jovial cedar]

Wait, isn't it a bit too saturated ?

Than the original ?

[tough zinc]

me?

[jovial cedar]

Yup x)

[tough zinc]

all natural baby just like god intended

no magic hdr cus this is what it looks like with that on

[jovial cedar]

Is it a Beta preset ?

Or rather, what's the name of the preset ?

[tough zinc]

Clear1 at 8am

It’s the version you sent me in dms

[jovial cedar]

Yeah, but I've sent you plenty xD

Trying to figure which one it was x)

[tough zinc]

Ill get it for you

[olive oyster]

spooky vibes in the zone tonight

[waxen harbor]

@jovial cedar

It's pretty?

[jovial cedar]

Before that, what's your setup ?

[waxen harbor]

of the graphics?

it's all in vanilla gamma

[jovial cedar]

Even the trees ?

The one thing bothering me is the trees

They look like breaking the picture's natural flow

[waxen harbor]

yeah

[jovial cedar]

So you removed Dead Zone ?

This is more my type

[waxen harbor]

wow, it was really beautiful

I'm hiding xD

[waxen harbor]

how did yours turn out like this?

@jovial cedar how did you make the colors like that?

[bleak cave]

it came like that, its a special variant of it i think, not the standard one

[jovial cedar]

Through Reshade and using a modified version of Autumn Season Redux

[waxen harbor]

can you send me the link of this mod?

[jovial cedar]

#🖇old-mods-posting message

[waxen harbor]

thanks

[waxen harbor]

@jovial cedar now my game is more beautiful?

[jovial cedar]

It's not about the mods you install, it's about the vision, do not rely on my vision to see what's beautiful or not, it has to be pleasing for you before anything

[waxen harbor]

[jovial cedar]

Besides I think you have a graphical glitch on the bottom left corner by the water

[waxen harbor]

I can't see this bug

[jovial cedar]

Just above the Body Health System

[waxen harbor]

it's just a gas mask effect i think

[jovial cedar]

Ah, possible yes

Just looking weird though x)

Time to begin.

Reshade Off

Reshade On (+RTGI)

[hollow heath]

Prince, I require your help with reshade.

I require it by any means.

[keen totem]

oh sure

wanna move it to dms so we don't flood the channel?

[hollow heath]

Yes my friend.

[keen totem]

Reshade On (but with RTGI before several tonemapping filters instead of after them)

[lucid grotto]

Sometime, GAMMA spawn a lot of mutants for no reason.

It had all. Fractures, flesh, cat, dogs, pseudodogs.

[burnt panther]

you angered the gamma gods

you shall now take your sacrifice

[lucid grotto]

Well they angered the axe god.

You see that description where they tell you of a legend of a heavily armored dude armed with an axe that cleave through everything ? It's me

[tardy river]

Infinite force meets immovable object or something

[fringe remnant]

"It's me"

[clever badger]

You ok?

[umbral thorn]

Is it okay to use some post fx on screenshots?

[misty flame]

Go hog-wild. No one is judging you here

[rich wraith]

i hope i had such a good pc , am playing on DX8 with 20 fps x)

[clever badger]

We all start somewhere my old pc could barely run vanilla stalker games

[frosty lance]

looks good can i ask you what vegatation mod you are using?

[calm crater]

brother you gotta hook me up lmao

[jovial cedar]

The update will come, but the less I have requests for help installing (which was a lot lately) the faster I can get it out xD

[calm crater]

give em the ol right hook

[clever badger]

yeah bro hand me that sauce that looks amazing

whats the framerate like if you dont mind?

[jovial cedar]

They're customers so I can't really do that x)

[calm crater]

booooooooo

[jovial cedar]

Should come this weekend but I need to work on a performance preset, As of now, if no Reshade is 105fps, Gamma Reshade would be 90fps and mine 80fps, so it can vastly depends on computer

I can certify that new ones are a lot better that those already posted

[clever badger]

I got a ryzen 5 3600 6 core

that good enough?

[proud oak]

it's more GPU based

[jovial cedar]

Should be yes x)

[rapid tide]

fools, I play it at 10 fps

[strange finch]

What have you tweaked since the beta version that I’ve tried? Looks good, keep up the good work.

[jovial cedar]

Mostly lighting tweaks and some colors 🙂

Shadows and light on trees should feel more natural

[strange finch]

Release date soon? Or can i try the updated beta

[strange finch]

Ohh i ran into that issue recently during clear day

Excited to try

[jovial cedar]

Can happen, especially in Clear 1 where shadows are darker than on other clear weathers
