[clever badger]

gotta try out and see

[rapid tide]

oh it is quite good with the cherry trees on

I should try it hang on

I had saved it

[shy anchor]

ok ^^

thanks

[clever badger]

Also you can try eft hands for thap.

Frosty did those

will try thx

thx Frosty

[shy anchor]

wow ^^

[clever badger]

Japan goes brrr

Stalkers in Fukushima

[shy anchor]

thats fun tbh, i wouldn't play with that, but that looks good

[clever badger]

i would

what mod ?

[rapid tide]

https://drive.google.com/drive/u/3/folders/1WQhEt7hBho8yFB4RieospnBVOTf5cOtQ they come from my corner

[clever badger]

cherry blossom

[shy anchor]

whats the Helmet Expansion pack?

[clever badger]

ou didnt saw that

Iirc he added some helmets from tarkov

[rapid tide]

I did

but its a bit old

has some issues like properties not being right, other than that they do work as helmets

[clever badger]

project inferno pink mode , lets go

waiting for sunrise

yeah fun 🙂

trully a experience

beauty

wait the sky

dont match

[opal raft]

thats how i felt when i turned the flashlight on

[clever badger]

ill stop

too colorful

[magic spruce]

is this one with reshade?

[strange finch]

New LUT

for limansk

[magic spruce]

looks really good

[shy anchor]

nice

[strange finch]

LUTs are the future, Im just surprised people havent embrassed them yet and made their own

[vernal gale]

[strange finch]

Its easy to do

[clever badger]

little guide pls

LUT guide

[vernal gale]

I know it's not hard for in game
But bringing 50 luts not easy

[strange finch]

Follow norfairs once you finish the last step you then transform the png into dds

using these settings

[vernal gale]

Thanks

[strange finch]

Yeah no problem

[strange finch]

funky colorgrading

[vernal gale]

Okay now a little question boss

What's next

[strange finch]

whats up?

[vernal gale]

I turned PNG to DDS

[devout fjord]

Amazing screenshots! Man, I need to come back to GAMMA 😄

[strange finch]

Ok what are the dimensions of the texture

[vernal gale]

4096 64

[strange finch]

Oh nice so you have a big LUT pack right?

since the dimension is pretty big

[vernal gale]

This is 4096 3328
52 luts

[strange finch]

Says it failed to open

which setting did you choose to convert?

can you send me the png lut

Ill conver it for you

[vernal gale]

Yea
Sorry I don't know much about this things

[strange finch]

You'll learn

[strange finch]

Before I do anything, did you verify that this works through reshade?

[vernal gale]

Yea all of them

[strange finch]

sounds good

give me a sec

[rapid tide]

why do they look like that

like why they boxes and colors and such, looks complex and only little pixel bugs in my pc can figure them out

[strange finch]

Here you go

The look funky when its this many LUT groups but should work

[vernal gale]

Thanks

[strange finch]

now you need to mess with the script and the lut shader file

set the right dimensions and number of groups

then mess with the script to specify which map gets which lut and at what intensity

starting from group 0 to group 51

which is 52 luts

[strange finch]

Its the future

Get on board

[rapid tide]

how I do it

[strange finch]

Follow norfairs guide

[rapid tide]

bet

[strange finch]

then after that just conver to DDS

[rapid tide]

I'll try it and see if I can figure it out

[vernal gale]

So I have to put them along lut_atlas right?

[strange finch]

so rename your lut file to lut_atlas.dds

and overwrite the one that comes with atmospherics

[vernal gale]

Okay now I see how's working
Thanks man you're a real legend

[strange finch]

It works?

[vernal gale]

I put them and now setting group

[rapid tide]

how can you tell exactly which effects I'd have to disable in order to get the actual lut creator to work

[vernal gale]

Let me check I sent a tutorial for someone

Step 1 : make the colors you want any color accepted also color brightness but bloom, fake shadow, sharpness, vignette and fake light not accepted

Step 2 : after you finished step 1 search for this effect prod80_02_LUT_Creator turn it on and put this at top of your colours and make sure the settings for this lut set to 512 512
Then take a screenshot

Step 3 : go and take the shot to paint, paint 3d, Photoshop or gimp or something like that change the width to 4096 then Take each row and place them next to each other in a line to the end. When down change the height to 64 and save as a PNG file
Grab the lut file and go to anomaly bin reshade-shaders textures and drop
Remember the name.

Step 4 : go In game turn on lut and enter the name of lut you create ( it's should be like this "d1.png") set the sizes to 64 64
That's it

Just don't use effects changing by scene
Like adaptive tonemapper or bloom

Or vignette

Also you can use brightness
But brightness comes with color

[magic spruce]

no bloom no vignet no dof

literally any effect that uses depth buffer

you need reshade for a good anti aliasing experience

you'd have to make a big tutorial for people to start doing it

i wouldn't know where to start when making a LUT

[strange finch]

Still LUTs are extremely useful so you dont have to stack color grading effects draining your fps

ENBs for bethesda games use LUTs

[magic spruce]

they do?

i ddint know that

[strange finch]

Yeah LUTs are a common color grading option

[magic spruce]

i'll have to pull up that tutorial norfair made

and see if my reshade can turn into a lut

im just not sure how it's gonig to work with fgfx and adaptive tonemapper

and all the stuff i did for regrade

[vernal gale]

Okay I set group
At scripts ssfx_lut and at shaders pp_lut for number of groups
Is that right?
I also go through the Atmos not sss

[strange finch]

Yes

just make sure you set the right dimensions

Anyway here is the final lut for Limansk

cold, contrasty with nice deep shadows for this map

how it looks in the rain

And cloudy1

[vernal gale]

I can't find any issue
It's looks good to me

[strange finch]

There you go, you're now the first person beside me and Capa I think to make a DDS lut

[magic spruce]

i tried making one

and i tlooked really bad

[strange finch]

probably wrong settings/compression

[magic spruce]

i was following norfairs tuturial

with the display lut and all that

[strange finch]

no not the png lut but probably when you transformed it from png to DDS

[magic spruce]

oh

[strange finch]

or you tried to bake in effects that use the depth buffer

[magic spruce]

does fgfx use the depth buffefr?

[strange finch]

Yes

[magic spruce]

alright forget lut's

[strange finch]

show me all your effects?

[magic spruce]

ok give me a second

it's like

ambient light
adaptive tonemapper
regrade
fgfx

or something like tha

[vernal gale]

Here follow this

Step 1 : make the colors you want any color accepted also color brightness but bloom, fake shadow, sharpness, vignette and fake light not accepted

Step 2 : after you finished step 1 search for this effect prod80_02_LUT_Creator turn it on and put this at top of your colours and make sure the settings for this lut set to 512 512
Then take a screenshot

Step 3 : go and take the shot to paint, paint 3d, Photoshop or gimp or something like that change the width to 4096 then Take each row and place them next to each other in a line to the end. When down change the height to 64 and save as a PNG file
Grab the lut file and go to anomaly bin reshade-shaders textures and drop
Remember the name.

Step 4 : go In game turn on lut and enter the name of lut you create ( it's should be like this "d1.png") set the sizes to 64 64
That's it

Important: don't use effects changing by scene
Like adaptive tonemapper, bloom, vignette

[strange finch]

yeah you would only bake in regrade

[magic spruce]

why would i do tha

[strange finch]

saving about .2 or .3 ms on gpu

which for some users would be alot but since you said you arent distributing your reshade anymore

then yeah I wouldnt bother about it

[magic spruce]

if lut's are only coloring

then it's not this big whoop your talking about

[strange finch]

Yeah it is because you can do your contrast adjustments, brightness, midtones, highlights, saturation, vibrance, tonemap, tone curve, lights, darks, per color saturation all in LUT

[vernal gale]

Here a shot with only lut no extra effects

[magic spruce]

looks desaturated and bland

[strange finch]

Harsh, I think it looks fine

might look better on a different map than cordon

[magic spruce]

why make a whole lut for that though

there's saturation settings in the game

[strange finch]

Sure but is there anything else ingame?

[magic spruce]

sure

when we were still using enhanced color grading

[strange finch]

Such as?

Yeah the one that broke god rays? and that only had lights, and contrast

[magic spruce]

there's still brightness gamma and contrast

[strange finch]

Its not the same as a tone curve

you wouldnt know as you havent used one

[magic spruce]

i have used one

not sure why you're assuming here

[strange finch]

Im talking about this

you can bake all of this in a LUT

Thats like saying damn, why do ENBs use LUTs, just use inefficient reshade

[magic spruce]

didnt' say that

but ok

im saying about all the other effects

you've just told me I cant get hte majority of my reshade into an lut

[strange finch]

I didnt say you did I said "like saying"

[magic spruce]

my regrade doesn't even have coloring to it

[strange finch]

yeah because you need regrade ultimate

[magic spruce]

?

the effect?

[strange finch]

the $10 tier from martys discord/patreon

I just subbed to it once and unsubbed to get it

[magic spruce]

that's wut i did for rtgi

never used it again lol

[strange finch]

Yeah if anyone is serious about LUTs defintely grab regrade ultimate and learn how to use it

[magic spruce]

hmmm

i have some money to spare

[strange finch]

Because as you know atmosR+ before I stopped using enhanced shaders color grading used to have many effects that used the depth buffer

but I ended up forgoing lots of them for the tone curve, split toning, etc, etc that is in regrade ultimate

[magic spruce]

and that can all be put in an lut?

[strange finch]

baked all of that into a LUT and

yeah everything in regrade ultimate can be put into a LUT

[magic spruce]

cause I use both of those

in my normal regrade

[strange finch]

Yeah

[magic spruce]

so adaptive tonemapper can't be in regrade

even if I don't use the adaptive part o fit

just the tonemapper?

[strange finch]

If you dont use the adaptive part

it can be used

[magic spruce]

ah ok

so i'd just be stuck with fgf

fgfx

[strange finch]

yeah for sure

But learning to use this changed everything for me

[magic spruce]

weren't you using like

filmdeck before?

for atmos film

[devout fjord]

Amazing! Add Ayden's Winter Trees and grass to that and you'll basically have this. 🤘 ❤️‍🔥

[strange finch]

I wish

[magic spruce]

that's more like

aydin's summer

[devout fjord]

true

summer

[magic spruce]

the trees are pretty dead though

that pistol looks real shiny

[delicate talon]

this pic is 🔥

[strange finch]

I dont think it looks that shiny

Its nothing like some of the oily guns that you find in expedition

[magic spruce]

night time in anomaly custom

[strange finch]

Have you tried using a debanding effect to get rid of that ugly banding around the moon?

[magic spruce]

that's what debanding does?

i never knew that

[strange finch]

yup

that way you wont see those weird circles

[magic spruce]

debanding.fx doenst seem to do anthnig

[strange finch]

you have to customize it or are you saying it doesnt effect those bands around the moon?

[magic spruce]

i'm adjusting all the settings and it's not afecting all the bands around the moon

[strange finch]

Shame was hoping it would lessen it

[magic spruce]

oh wait

before

after

[strange finch]

Way better

[magic spruce]

yeah the sky like

allready debands by default

without reshade

it's weird

all my other effects enhance it

[strange finch]

How come this one screenshot looks more washed out?

[magic spruce]

it's because of the uh

the nights on custom

have a lot of volumetric rays

and my reshade like

darkens everything during tark

its weird

but

debanding fixes all of it

without my other 3 effects

i think its because of fgfx

[strange finch]

yeah fgfx causes heavy banding which is why I stopped using it over a year ago

mostly noticeable at night

[magic spruce]

yeah

im not sure what i'd use to replace it though

[strange finch]

regrade ultimate tonecurve

[magic spruce]

so i'd need this one

[strange finch]

yes

[magic spruce]

convulution bloom???

[strange finch]

yeah its the best bloom but super heavy

as heavy as rtgi

maybe a little less

[magic spruce]

dang

so not worth it at all

i gotta say

anomaly custom does look really good without reshade

[strange finch]

• new rtgi idk if you have it handles surface roughness again

[magic spruce]

i thnik i have uh

0.4x something

probably why i was having issues with frosty's rtgi version of my reshade

[strange finch]

its just called immerse pro rtgi

[magic spruce]

since we use different versions

yeah i have that one

[strange finch]

have these settings

[magic spruce]

ok

skilldex has some really heavy volumetric rays

it can look pretty good in some instances thoug

i htink if it could be made to be like

adaptive or something like that

[strange finch]

Yeah Ive seen it

[magic spruce]

like more intensive indoors but less intensive outside

[strange finch]

you'd have to rework the entire system

[magic spruce]

maybe manuel could do it

[strange finch]

most likely a job for ascii

yeah

[magic spruce]

would be pretty colo though

he's allready doing his own cool stuff

[strange finch]

It actually would

you could request it in the SSS discord

[magic spruce]

maybe i shold

i'm allerady excited for him saying he's gonna do stuff with the mask overlays

[strange finch]

say something about how volumetric mode can sometimes make things washed out outside depending on the setting in the weather/console commands

is it possible to have the strength increase but only for indoors but not wash out the outside

and give 2 example pictures of before/after

[magic spruce]

ok

just got regrade ultimate and the ohers

i really like the dof skilledx uses

near the weapon

[strange finch]

you mean the settings that he uses for SSS?

[magic spruce]

yea

it doest blur the ara around me

and just the gun

idk if that's cuz of older sss or what

[strange finch]

nah just the settings he uses

[magic spruce]

ah

let's trhy it these mr pascal shaders

mnaybe I should contact skilldex and maaybe make some lut's for him

like for each map like you did

[magic spruce]

man i just love ur screenshots

[magic spruce]

i swear ym gamma doesnt look like urs

[strange finch]

New LUT for outskirts

[magic spruce]

i mean like

in general

im on 1440p

but your's just looks so clean

probably my monitor

[shy anchor]

damn those screens are amazing yeah

[strange finch]

Mmm idk I just use adega + atmospherics + luts + TFAA

Im making new luts for all the maps with lots of buildings

[magic spruce]

i used geniunely all of that

idk

i think i got it close when i was testnig it back when

everything was in beta

[strange finch]

Oh yeah its changed alot

[shy anchor]

if by any chance you decide to do the ones from New Levels... 🙃

[strange finch]

maybe one day

[shy anchor]

[strange finch]

• the latest updates for the sunsets that I did really helped

[magic spruce]

yeah they're real nice

you should try makign this stype of sun

it looks really big because it's zoomed in

but still

kinda like how metro exodus doe sit

[strange finch]

I'd need the texture

but yeah maybe

[rapid tide]

think I did it

[magic spruce]

feels like

watchdogstonemapper

looks good

[strange finch]

This or

or this

[magic spruce]

am i looking at the sky?

what weather is it

[strange finch]

colors

[magic spruce]

ah

i ese the bottom is more blue

[shy anchor]

i prefer the first

[strange finch]

for outskirts which fits better

[magic spruce]

yeah I prefer the first

[strange finch]

okay sounds good

[magic spruce]

you can get it from the github

[strange finch]

Oh really, I'll probably ask them first before I grab it

[magic spruce]

https://github.com/DanceManiac/Advanced-X-Ray-Public/releases/tag/2.2.74

ah ok

that'd be the right hting to do

they're in the OXR discord

(i cant wait for the beta release of that one)

[strange finch]

Yeah I know Ive commented on their pics before

I like them

[magic spruce]

yeah It's a new look

i think it looks amaazing

[rapid tide]

Hippo do you play with grass shadows on right

[strange finch]

I dont play

:/

but at the moment yeah

[rapid tide]

gotcha

[strange finch]

outskirts lut is done

[magic spruce]

looks amazin

[strange finch]

Thank you

[rapid tide]

think I got it

[strange finch]

Once you get the hang of it its nice

[strange finch]

New rostok lut is done, usually the ugliest place imo

[devout fjord]

New Atmos version coming soon? Sorry been out of the loop for awhile heh These shots are ridiculously nice.

[strange finch]

couple of days

Im cooking with the luts atm

[magic spruce]

green grass??

[strange finch]

vanilla anomaly grass

rostok uses it

for adega

[magic spruce]

in adega?

huh interesting

looks strange with the autumn trees

other than the cherry ones

[strange finch]

Yeah I agree

I'd need to change the trees for that level or something

[magic spruce]

i like the colors for the vanilla anomaly grass

[strange finch]

I agree

I wish they didnt flicker so much though

[magic spruce]

ik

im not sure hwat's causing that

and not for grass tweaks

[magic spruce]

probably could just change the colors for aydins summr

or spring

[strange finch]

yeah match it to the anomaly grass and call it a day

would be very similar to the ones in stalker 2

color wise

[magic spruce]

yeah

aydin's summer allready kinda matches it

with some of the autumny yellow ish grass

would need some of those too

for stalker 2 look

[magic spruce]

I just wish gtr was still being worked on

those grasses would have been amaznig to ues

[strange finch]

I agree

[magic spruce]

i hope dobrov is ok

[strange finch]

Same

Hopefully hes alive and well

[magic spruce]

his screenshots were actually insane

[strange finch]

Especially for the time

[magic spruce]

geniunely looked like a different game

yah

[strange finch]

Just goes to show that adding good assets is such a graphical upgrade

[magic spruce]

like look at this

[strange finch]

Yeah still holds up today without the fancy lighting of atmospherics/new SSS/ ES 1.10

crazy

[magic spruce]

can you imagine how it would look with all of that new stuff???

insane

[strange finch]

sadly its pretty much discontinued

[magic spruce]

yeah

would be a miracle if he came back

[magic spruce]

RTGI on

off

also my ultimate regrade only looks like this

do i need to reinstall reshade with addon support?

[strange finch]

yeah

its an addon

[magic spruce]

ah makes sense

rtgi doesnt seemt o do that much

[magic spruce]

nevermind it definately does stuff

[hardy thunder]

wich hands pack u got?

[stoic moss]

wish there were some rugs

and plants

[rapid tide]

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1abxXs1aVufqVjep20JIyPHugUhgMPt2t/view?usp=drive_link

[hardy thunder]

THANKS!! wish suit is that? sorry my bad english

[rapid tide]

It is the military light outfit originally, if you go into the meshes and find military berill ogf and copy and paste a copy to your desktop, and rename it to another hand ogf for the suit you wanna use them for, you can do that as well so multiple suits are copied the same

[hardy thunder]

thanks my bro

[hardy thunder]

welcome to pripyat

[delicate talon]

what detector mod is that

[trail oracle]

isn't it DAR (https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/devices-of-anomaly-redone)

[delicate talon]

damn looks nice, i had a gripe with the current textures. thanks

[eternal crown]

my god, does it render for yall?

[trail oracle]

nope

[eternal crown]

that's always lovely

WDYM not even jpeg

[trail oracle]

something's wrong with discord. has been like this for ~30 minutes

[eternal crown]

too depressing for discord, lmao

anyways

[jovial cedar]

I can confirm that

Uploads were suddenly slower and now it doesn't even show

[jovial cedar]

It was much better with clear and partly weathers, but otherwise too colorful indeed

[strange finch]

Now is not the time for my new lut screens to fuck up lol

[clever badger]

Stupid discord won't let me see Hippo's pics

[strange finch]

Not to sound cocky but they look like a different game

[clever badger]

discord down

[strange finch]

:/

[clever badger]

I just bought nitro

[strange finch]

All because of you Fabio

[clever badger]

this is the end of discord)

[strange finch]

Mighty fabio downed discord

[clever badger]

You know what now, Atmos.ltx is great for winter. Even with sun_lumescale 3

[strange finch]

This should work

[strange finch]

Thats good to hear

[clever badger]

There is absolutely no need to change any settings.

[strange finch]

Thoughts and feedback?

Actually Stalker 1.5

[clever badger]

Foggy1 5:52 am

[strange finch]

Oh yeah that looks nice

[jovial cedar]

On all these screenshots, I think you've pretty much nailed it, a few night and indoors shots would be nice as well I think ?

[small crown]

What reshade?

[strange finch]

Nights to be reworked with the new LUTs but its nothing major just a slight bump in ambient and hemi to make them balanced. Because right now with the new LUTs, the ground can get really dark

but I can showoff indoors though

[strange finch]

@jovial cedar

[jovial cedar]

Looking great imo, there's one area I would like to see because it can be picky, it's inside the 100Rads

[strange finch]

Sure!

here is the work in progress greatswamps

[strange finch]

Did you see the screenshots from yesterday?

[jovial cedar]

I think I did, the Rostok ones ?

[strange finch]

Here you go

[jovial cedar]

I always thought it would be a bit more moody, like half weathers clear and half bad ones

[strange finch]

cloudy3

[strange finch]

I wish I could disable weather cycles for certain maps

I could probably do it in a script

I think I nailed it tbh

Just need to replace the ugly npc model here lol

[jovial cedar]

Could be complexe, considering there's even a special weather cycle for labs and undergrounds

Looking great as well, funny to see that your Rostok's bar is as empty as mine x)

[strange finch]

Indoors

[vernal gale]

Now it looks like a really good old vibe

[jovial cedar]

It's pretty much nailed, is there a way to prevent foggy weathers indoors though ?

[strange finch]

Nope but I know ascii plans to rework the foggy system, not sure what he has planned

[jovial cedar]

Well, it will keep improving then, the current state of the game's enhancements is already crazy honestly

[strange finch]

Yeah on a weekly basis

if not daily

[jovial cedar]

In the span of one year especially it's been doing crazy jump in quality and looking more modern

I won't say Stalker 2 or AAA because of the engine, it's about being realistic here, but it's definitely showing it's best capabilities

[strange finch]

For sure

Moving on to the next map

[vernal gale]

Hello hippo
A little question
I put my luts in game yesterday but when I set group for everyone maps
Game turned to green
Any Idea how can fix it ?
I know I did something wrong

[strange finch]

you mean when you messed with the script or the shader file?

[vernal gale]

Scripts

[strange finch]

Thats odd

show me your script

[clever badger]

Oh it's really good visuals

[strange finch]

Thank you!

[vernal gale]

Sadly I put them back to normal

I don't know where should I change what as I use 52 luts at 4096 64

[shy anchor]

Are you reworking the LUTs from all maps Hippo?

[strange finch]

90% of them

but Im almost done, after this I just have to double check them.

Then I have to up the hemi/amb at night to compensate

and done

[shy anchor]

awesome

[orchid drum]

Not sure how it works with your shader based LUTs but are you able to make like packs of different ones... like obviously these natural based ones... then say a filmic type set etc? can they be swapped easy?

[hot cypress]

Amazing. Is this autumn trees and grass or?

[strange finch]

yes

[dreamy flicker]

Tango down

[magic spruce]

pp sky

[kindred lion]

What reshade?

[magic spruce]

brown

[vernal gale]

A good dead zone

[magic spruce]

nice screenhsots

[scenic frigate]

wow what reshade is that?

[magic spruce]

no reshade

[scenic frigate]

it's not unreal zone 3.0?

[magic spruce]

definately not

[scenic frigate]

cause I'm trying to install that now

[magic spruce]

he's making a new LUT for atmos

and dont install 3.0

i have 4.0 posted in that thread

[scenic frigate]

oh

[magic spruce]

#1180668474377371648 message

[scenic frigate]

so I don't need the files from unreal zone 3.0 at all?

I was following this tutorial

[magic spruce]

no

you can just install the ini file

[scenic frigate]

I did that and it looks nothing like it should...

[magic spruce]

turn off the lut's in game

press `

ssfx_lut 0,0,0,0

type that

in game

[scenic frigate]

that helped, but still looks different than your screenshots 😦

[magic spruce]

if youw ant that exact look

[scenic frigate]

my game looks super orangey

[magic spruce]

ok hold on

download this

put it into your anomaly apdata folder

go in game

cfg_load atmosr

you have to restar ur game

then go to aydins grass tweaks in mo2

reinsall

install the winter version

[scenic frigate]

replace?

jesus this is even worse

[magic spruce]

why is your game so orange

hm

what weather are you on

are you in debug mode or no

if so pless

f7

then 3

[scenic frigate]

f7 does nothing

[magic spruce]

then play in debug mode

via the anomaly launcher

[scenic frigate]

changed the time, even worse now loool

[magic spruce]

it's because it's morning time

idk

sometthings wrong

[scenic frigate]

disabled adaptive tonemapper and quint regrade, looks a bit better fs

it's just lacking colours a bit haha

[magic spruce]

why

sigh

now you dont even have my reshade enabled at this point

go into regrade

find adjustments

tone the saturation done to 0

down*

should make it a lot less orange

[scenic frigate]

I do!

[magic spruce]

you disabled all the core effects bruh

he reshade isnt doing anything anymore

[scenic frigate]

[magic spruce]

other than mxao

[scenic frigate]

looks at what mxao is doing lol

if you open full size you can see black lines behind the vines

[proper ivy]

Ah yes, shadows

Very nice little thing !

[scenic frigate]

those are some bad looking shadows if you ask me

I might've fucked around too much with texture clarity

[proper ivy]

That just looks like the AO intensity being too high

[scenic frigate]

good call

whats the best shadow map profile? 2048?

[proper ivy]

1536 or whatever, best performance and like not a noticeable difference, other effects tend to make up for whatever quality you're losing there

[magic spruce]

i play with grass shadows

and mxao is just htere to darken the grass

maybe if you enabled the rest of the effects i put on my reshade

you'd get somehting more than some black lines

🤯

[clever badger]

[scenic frigate]

yeah thats what it looked like

this is what vanilla used to look like for me in nov 2022

I can't seem to make it look like that for the life of me

[magic spruce]

are you not on dx11

[scenic frigate]

I am

[magic spruce]

why doe syour game look absolutely horirble then

dude what are your settings???

[scenic frigate]

wait a minute

shii I dunno, maybe my new gpu is fucking with it

switched from nvidia to amd

night and day

what a mess lmao

anyway I'm off to bed it's 3 am

thanks for your help, I'll keep working on it later today

[dreamy flicker]

brother

how

[magic spruce]

A new LUT i've been workin on...

[devout fjord]

Is this an appropriate place to share True Stalker screenies? Asking for a friend. 😄

[rapid tide]

I mean others take photos not even from gamma

so I'd say yea

it does say STALKER photos

so true stalker is technically counted as a stalker game

[magic spruce]

yeah

[smoky socket]

How do I get his drip

[magic spruce]

kill him

[smoky socket]

I did and he didn't drop it

[magic spruce]

cheat

[devout fjord]

Man, I can't wait to come back to Gamma. These screenshots are fire!

Trying to wrap up true stalker 😄

[magic spruce]

that's true stalker?

i thoguht the foliage was green

[devout fjord]

I changed it 😛

This is what it looks like without my preset. 😦

[magic spruce]

oooooooooooooooh

[devout fjord]

True Stalker w/custom preset 👇

[magic spruce]

you used regrade

or lightroom

[devout fjord]

yep lightroom

with selective color to modify the foilage

[magic spruce]

thought so

wouldn't that affect other greens too?

[devout fjord]

still see some shades of green, in some of the tree foilage. Not too noticeable, but I can tell. Trying to figure that out.

[magic spruce]

ah

i'd say it looks good like that though

[devout fjord]

I didn't see a major change in other greens, could be wrong though. thanks!

[magic spruce]

looks a lot better than default true stalker

hahahha

[devout fjord]

I need to learn LUTS, some of the above screenshots are crazy!

haha fo sho

[somber sedge]

Yo!

[clever badger]

Is it okay for foggy weather to appear, despite it being selected to none in weather settings?

[clever badger]

Changed from foggy weather to clear_1 and got this

Dunno if I should have disabled atmos for golden autumn redux by Fabio, though

[rapid tide]

why fire on when rain idk but lit

[clever badger]

[remote raft]

How do they do it!?

[uncut bridge]

Looking alright even without reshade

[remote raft]

lmao my waypoint is flying around in circles because its on a crow wtf

[velvet marsh]

Yeah some fog will always be present from what I've noticed. Probably to limit render distance or something

[digital kite]

I remember I used to browse this channel over a year ago and only maybe a handful of people would post really good screenshots but now it seems like every other person that posts is getting such good lighting and cinematic shots everywhere they go and I love that so much

[orchid drum]

we're all trying to make our stalker look as realistic as possible and lauta_ro is... doing the opposite 😄

[magic spruce]

looks like roblox or something from the 90's

[shy anchor]

Damn that texture update looks good

[magic spruce]

4k texturepack

[compact wedge]

why does gamma use lower quality pistols?, this is from PPP

and this is the one that gamma uses

[magic spruce]

i thought gamma allready has PPP?

[compact wedge]

the 'gunslinger pistol pack' that gamma uses, has low quality textures

[magic spruce]

so it overwrites pretty pistols?

[compact wedge]

im not sure if it overwrites all

but gamma is using the gunslinger pack, which overwrites the colt series

PPP doesn't have gunslinger anims, but looks way better

[magic spruce]

yeah the gunslinger guns pack overwrites pretty pistols

[clever badger]

Tbf gunslinger port sucks.

Looking good 👍

Quick question about the late fall pack. Does anything need updating with it to work with the new wind effects from the latest SSS update? Was wondering if you where going to do any more with the pack too. It’s by far my fav graphic pack 🙂

[clever badger]

Thank you, yes of course I will update. The weather will definitely be adjusted. Textures (snow) will be updated

[orchid drum]

oh great 🙂 cant wait to see what you do!

[digital kite]

Is this pretty much just autumn grass with winter ground textures?

[magic spruce]

that's late fall by fabio

[digital kite]

Right but couldn't you just change out the ground textures and get the same effect? Like if I wanted ADEGA but with snowy ground textures?

[magic spruce]

gross

but i guess

[digital kite]

Some maps would look a bit off yeah but I think it would work okay in a good many
