What settings do you use in RTGI? If you don’t mind sharing

[echo plover]

I use both RTGIs at once, like no one else does. Each has its own pros and cons. At the moment, with the GAMMA EXP Edition Complete graphics installed, I use several options. For Day and Night gameplay. And for screenshots.
Here's an example for a day:

RTGI versions are latest.

Since I haven’t tried all the weather and time, I’m still adjusting during gameplay, but I think I’ll finish it quickly. I haven't logged into the game for a long time.

[vernal gale]

I mean
Rtgi is working good
But not as FPS it takes
I used it many many different games
But still the FPS you lose is too much
Yea I can use ray tracing
I like it of course
But I try to make a good looking game with good performance to share with everyone and no pay wall too

For example I put rtgi as an optional in my reshade

Or rgi

[echo plover]

I also experience FPS loss with ultra GAMMA settings. But I use x2 and x3 FPS increase if I want. This is a neural network program.

[vernal gale]

Yea I also use it
But I mean not everyone can buy a good pc,shaders or lossless scaling

If we don't count all of this

[echo plover]

You are working for the public. Me for myself

[vernal gale]

I also use it bro

Let's talk about it herehttps://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/927860562677878795

[echo plover]

You can’t achieve something that is universally perfect for almost everyone. Everyone has their own monitor. Your own video cards. Monitor matrix. Monitor settings. Your preferences, for example, regarding grass. There are a lot of such nuances.

[night wren]

what are the settings bro ?

[vestal whale]

Talk me pm bro, I'm not for PC now

[night wren]

i want my guns to look this

[night wren]

okay

[random flame]

Do not change anything else and ingame limit your fps to half of your monitor refresh rate. It gives me the best results with barely any artifacts or glimmer.

[vernal gale]

I use the same settings as keule
Probably the best settings for no artifacts and delay
But remember if you are already getting lower than 35fps, you need performance option on for lowering the delay

[obtuse crater]

Still looking for a more "filmic" reshade but for now COAR CFG with Adeaga+ZR and Norfair Reshade works for day to day gaming 🙂

[spark zenith]

Not super high quality, but I like it regardless

Last one just 🤌

[vernal gale]

It's not super crazy quality
But I really like the vibe and nostalgia feeling from this shot

And of course for dx 8 it looks absolutely amazing

[carmine scaffold]

Yeah, DX8 is really nice

[lucid blaze]

What did you use for textures? It looks like adega

[rain fern]

bit on the dim side but can turn color sat up

[vestal whale]

Adegazr++

+zone remade

[rain fern]

adeagazr+ is amazing

[lucid blaze]

Ohhh lol. Yeah it looks great. But doesnt adegazr+ already come with zone remade or is it a different version of zr

[rain fern]

nah think ya thinking of zone reality remade (unless thats what he means)

[warm sierra]

DX8

[fossil stirrup]

why dx8 tho

[warm sierra]

low specs

[rain fern]

still absolutely stunning

[carmine scaffold]

what you running i always been curious

because a friend has low specs and wanted to play gamma

[clever badger]

Damn, wish I could get that to work without crashes

[carmine scaffold]

get what to work?

[rain fern]

Honestly this game is great for photography lovers

it kinda looks like an old soc build but with higher res textures

[marsh musk]

Dude I needa figure out how to get reshades going. They look insanely good in these pictures.

[jolly lagoon]

finally i get repaired my sks

and upgrade with the HUNTERS KIT 🙂

[tender elk]

May I ask whether you are running any extra mods or you achieved that look through in game settings only?

[desert yew]

He literally plays stock, with a few mods disabled for the game to run on dx8

[tender elk]

I tried DX9 and it was really dark, and I was told DX8 is even darker.

[tulip bronze]

There is a free RTGI like pack for anybody interested in not paying. Though I have Martys RTGI and its been okay for a smoothbrain like me.

There is another great developer, BlueSkyDefender with another AO + GI shader:

https://github.com/BlueSkyDefender/AstrayFX/blob/master/Shaders/GloomAO.fx

This one is using directional occlusion, which is used in Call of Duty games if I'm not mistaken. And just like MXAO (with enabled GI) it calculates light bounces as well as the shadows.

The paid RTGI shader from MartyMcFly is more sophisticated and can calculate light bouncing more than once and also to far away surfaces so it is much more real life-like mathematically. But for the end result of a game-play perspective, GloomAO or MXAO can still give awesome results.```

[echo plover]

There's only global occlusion, not light.
If you are looking for a free alternative, then RadiantGI.fx is better
I'm more surprised that people are looking for free alternatives rather than leaked versions of some versions of RTGI McFly

[tulip bronze]

RadiantGI I had really varied results, but combined that with SSDO could make some really nice scenes/look to the game.

[candid shore]

le color grading

[vernal gale]

In game LUT FX ?

[candid shore]

no

keenshade finally remembered his password and shared this file

it's lut + color grading

bruh

[vernal gale]

Oh
I see
Look good

[candid shore]

gotta disable lut but I don't wanna compile shaders for another 10 minutes

[calm swift]

How do you get this "tesselation" effect so strong? The streets in my current version look somewhat flat, only until I look really close at it

[candid shore]

use the terrain upgrade module from SSS

[tulip bronze]

Thats not enabled by standard no?

[calm swift]

Yeah I have the entire bunch installed, the effect is there, but not as potent as in your image. or wait, is it another addon ontop of SSS?

[candid shore]

i don't play gamma

and if it's not enabled by default

skill issue

[tulip bronze]

Think its enabled as standard, the rain pops out for me. Just wasnt too sure.

zrr 1.3

[rain fern]

was going to ask which version thats frosty one that he tweaked ae?

if i use aydins grass but only pick grass will i get those trees?

[vestal whale]

quite, you need a config and texture

[rain fern]

ah that seems a bit out of my experience atm only just started adding textures mods and reshades XD

[vestal whale]

Let it be a little hobby

[rain fern]

basically has been as of late did more messing around with reshades and mods then i have playing as of late just been loving how photogenic this game can be

[vestal whale]

Here I am too) so far there is no good land and grass for my mod

[rain fern]

what i have manage to do so far pretty generic ended falling on adega with capa reshade summer trees and grass and rottenl ife for some small touuches oh and cfg atmos

[rain fern]

love how the red atunm trees cut through all the green

[vestal whale]

adegazrr+

[rain fern]

ah ok i actually still have that downloaded

[lofty harbor]

what reshade are you using?

[drifting pulsar]

This shot would look great.
Without the weapon 😉

[rain fern]

bruh thats coming along nicely

[clever badger]

Project I.N.V.E.R.N.O is ready, all that remains is to pack it into DB and edit the FOMOD installer. Then I'll upload it to MODB. 5 days from morning to night and the update is ready

[echo plover]

[patent coyote]

What is your grass Size/Density set to?

[rain fern]

can turn rendering and density down a little

[rain fern]

also its summer grass

[patent coyote]

Yea I am pretty sure I am rocking Summer as well. Thank you so much for the info! Your game looks great! 🤘

[rain fern]

thanks been trying to crank out the best image i can for 1080p

[patent coyote]

You are doing a great job! I am going to snag a screen of my game after I change the grass and show you what I am currently working with. I am always open to input if you have any ideas on how to improve the look and ambience!

[rain fern]

im still very new to textures and reshades but will give what input i can as i love photography i feel mine is pretty generic look to get XD

[patent coyote]

Turns out, my settings were already damn near identical xD

[tulip bronze]

Grass size counts for a lot of beauty in return for lowering density/distance

Just makes it harder to see enemies (when they can see you)

[patent coyote]

Keep in mind that some of the people posting STUPIDLY PRETTY screenshots, are using Paid Assets from the Modders that you cannot access without donating.

[rain fern]

this does happen on hills

[patent coyote]

Facts! Though isn't there a mod that makes it so NPC's can't see through grass as well?

[patent coyote]

Try 0.6 for size

[rain fern]

nah just bushes and it not worth using imo

[tulip bronze]

Wolf beat me to it

[patent coyote]

F

[rain fern]

might do also might try less density later on for some definition in the terrain

[dim pine]

bandito

[patent coyote]

Shouldn’t you be reporting the news?!?

[fossil lily]

thats it im going back to summer grass

[patent coyote]

@rain fern Here are a couple screens I just took in Cordon. It is like 12pm so it is way too bright outside in game. xD

Though I think I may be using spring now that I look again -_-

[rain fern]

that looks like spring also 0.9 gamma and brightness and 1.2 1.3 col sat is a good start maybe then go from there

[patent coyote]

I will dork around with it some. Those are the worst screenshots I have ever taken tbh

This is a better display of the color sat and gamma that I am rocking, if you still think I should tweak it I will certainly give it a try!

no grass

[rain fern]

what ya rocking settings wise?

[fossil lily]

spring grass is so green oml

[rain fern]

if thats still around 12 its a bit dark (but i know ss come out darker) and is it gloomy/foogy out?

[rain fern]

ikr

[fossil lily]

summer is really nice and i love autumn too but sometimes i get sick of seeing brown shades

[patent coyote]

I do not remember what time it was, but it was gloomy and rainy that day, probably near midday

[tulip bronze]

Dabbled around with Agressor grass once, but it effects the whole zone.https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1262488953668501554/1264376925682663444/image.png?ex=66a24386&is=66a0f206&hm=702250702c48a37cd75d3647cd1070e5d2123470bb50e8fd58ed9c58f83d1c54&

[patent coyote]

Yea I may have to rock summer. The green is a tad much. Do you know if there is cfg_load for summer?

[rain fern]

honestly looks pretty good brightness wise then 🙂

[fossil lily]

afaik for atmos there is only the atmos and atmos_spring

[rain fern]

i find it to be to even imo

[fossil lily]

idk if theres one for summer just flick between them ig

and see which you prefer

[rain fern]

looks like its been badly mowed XD

[fossil lily]

it doesnt change a whole lot anyway

[patent coyote]

atmos vs atmos_spring when using regular atmos it is WAY TOO BRIGHT

[fossil lily]

as in using spring grass and spring cfg?

[rain fern]

really i thought spring was brighter XD

[fossil lily]

reg atmos cfg has more exposure and saturation

i guess its reduced with spring as the grass is quite green

[patent coyote]

It did look worse, at least when I took those 2 crappy screens xD

As in, regular atmos looked worse

[rain fern]

hmm i might give spring a go thanks for the advice

[rain fern]

also you too

[fossil lily]

youre welcome i hope everything works the way you want

i might flip over and test out summer grass myself tbh i just wanna make sure theres nothing else to do besides drop it underneath adega lol

[patent coyote]

Any time!

[patent coyote]

I am probably going to test out Summer also. Seems the move!

[rain fern]

we talking bout gras or cfg?

XD

[patent coyote]

Gonna try Summer Grass with Spring CFG and see what happens, then play around with the CFG

Spring is beautiful just sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo green

[rain fern]

I do prefer a more washed realistic vibe thats why I might prefer Atmos over sping Atmos as spring Atmos is a little too bright for me

[echo plover]

What's better? Or this option?

[tired rampart]

anyone else like the gloomy and dead feel for stalker? prob my favorite look for the games

[echo plover]

In such weather, with Amtosferiks there is complete immersion when trees and bushes move during wind and rain. + Ambient

[vernal gale]

It's better
The other one looks cinematic but not as good and real as this one
Another thing is
Your paying your FPS for textures on the ground but if you don't be able to see them
Then that's not gonna be good

[echo plover]

In both options I don't pay anything, FPS is the same

I just forgot to adjust one parameter

[fossil lily]

lol they mean that because either way youre spending the frames, you might as well be able to actually see the textures

otherwise its fps "loss" for nothing

[vernal gale]

In that case it's more personal which one you like

[echo plover]

The point of the question was which screenshot is better visually and everyone here likes it.

I play with visual on second

[fossil lily]

yeah no worries i understood that

i also prefer the 2nd one by far

[tulip bronze]

Second one feels better for playing. First one most if not all people will say its better looking, but its harder to read.

[fossil lily]

rain drops on the scope are

[echo plover]

In my experience, people like screenshots that are more contrasty, cinematic, with darker and lighter areas. More clear. Even if it's unrealistic

[vernal gale]

Looks good especially the zombie one
I really like to see new bark textures with snow on it
So it looks more connected to the ground

[fossil lily]

the snow mod is so so nice

[fossil lily]

nuclear winter is crazy

[tulip bronze]

This is just me, but I like screenshots that you can actually play the game with. Jacking up settings to take a pretty screen is easy enough. Its the balancing that i like.

[fossil lily]

i think the bg of the first pic is nicer but my first instinct is something was off about the brightness of the weapon

[thin geode]

Yeah the bark definitely stands out, would look good with snow on it

[lucid blaze]

what reshade are you using??

[echo plover]

Norfair_CORE_v3 with the addition of some shaders: qUINT_rtgi, MartyMods_RTGI, MartyMods_SOLARIS, FISHEYE_CA_HORIZONTAL

During the day I turn on MartyMods_CLARITY. This makes the picture more realistic by equalizing the contrast between sky and ground.

[1:23]
During the day I turn on MartyMods_CLARITY. This makes the picture more realistic by equalizing the contrast between sky and ground.

[rotund raptor]

are you adding that gaussian blur in photoshop or is there something in reshade that's doing that?

[tulip bronze]

There is a GaussianBlur.FX option in reshade

[onyx olive]

Originally it was cappa zr (zone reality reshade) but I reseted it and now I am using my custom one

[rain fern]

was those ss with your custom one or zr as i use cappa zr too yet struggle to get that nice orange you got in your shots

[onyx olive]

There are some extra mods I can drop screenshot in DM if you want

[rain fern]

feel frree to always nice to see what people are running im just currently on a quest to brick my 1080 XD what i got so far (not the best ss)

[onyx olive]

It looks really good, in such weather mine does not look that good, since I have Emegrent zone mode that changes the colors and I have set it for the rainy one and the reshade was also set so that the visuals are better in rain or foggy day, try Aydin grass tweaks if you are not using and honestly If you got this colors without emergent zone mod that is pretty impressive, I would suggest you to try them out, there are few other mods as well such as texture mods, vehicle/glasses/doors/models upscale, will drop the reshade and mods screenshot here, but in reshade all the settings are pretty much changed a lil bit

[rain fern]

you watched the custard vid didnt you XD also thanks my dude for the input and the tips on the things ya did to get the look ya got also cool thing i learned only cause i didnt think about it i use adegazr+ but i always picked summer grass and trees for aydins grass but this time only picked grass and gives a range of tree colors so helps cut all the green will defiantly try out emergent tho 🙂

but i found the trees hard to get to a high quality due to the color variety

the worst suspect of it as my mate pointed out to me but at the same time the color is so nice for the game

[onyx olive]

Yea I guess we all did watched Custar videos :d yea true, trees are not that good looking most of the time with other mods, that was one of the main reasons I set my graphics to more dark and foggy one so its not that noticeable, but in morning hours you can pretty much see it and it is so much in your eyes since all the other things are great but the trees just... also in mod config menu in game there is an sss settings and there is a lightning and shadow sections, try setting the preset to the higher one for both, but the lightning one on high made my 5700xt kneel xD

[onyx olive]

Your color range is insane, like the tree in front is so much orange but the vegetation is still green, great color levels there.

[rain fern]

also 30fps gaming 😉

also my capazr reshade i touched nothing numbers wise but turned some things on

[onyx olive]

Hm thats interesting, I dont have some of the options in reshade that you have, mine is more dark blue/green colored in the morning and it does not look that good in clear weather 😄

[rain fern]

some are these are paid for but should have mxao and ssdo in there and they can darken some shadows where sun hits also looking at this i think im happy with just keeping aydin grass only doing grass as thats very green a nice shader as you probably know is badlandv6 which adds a nice blue lut

[tulip bronze]

GloomAO is basically the free version of RTGI.

[onyx olive]

Just messed with mode reshade settings and I am not even sure if I like it this way or the way it was earlier 😆

[onyx olive]

Thanks, just checked and will keep that one on

[rain fern]

know the feels i play with something for 5 min then like eh im not feeling that anymore XD

[onyx olive]

So basically this are the differences and not sure if it is worth it, right one is the new one, but def keeping GloomAO on

[rain fern]

looks alot better as the lighting looks far more even and in general looks more natural with gloomAO on

[onyx olive]

My fps will agree 😄

What do you guys think?
I like to know your opinion so please feel free and give any idea and feedback you want

Yeah make it more scuffed

And that too. All screenshots of Clarity have the same one. This is the adjustment of the second RTGI

[vestal whale]

more shadow

[jovial cedar]

I'm saying that because hard light can cause some "whiteness" like around the trees on the picture

Better to switch to soft light for that reason

[echo plover]

I know. That's why I gave two options. In the second screenshot, it turns out my RTGI settings have been reset.

I planned to take the second screenshot off the last one. Here he looks like between. Normal or adjust? How?

It’s just that I have a VA matrix that’s hard for me to judge. Find a balance between what I see and what others see.

[echo plover]

This is why I ask. What is enough and what is missing? I will adjust the RTGI

[jovial cedar]

Thing is though, between all the options you gave, that same effect can be seen, I have a VA panel as well

[echo plover]

The first screenshot is how I play. The last two are presets for screenshots. But we still need to regulate

[echo plover]

I’m telling you, my settings were wrong, I reset it without looking)

The last one is good, bad? What else?

My settings reset as soon as I turn off the shader( I don’t know how to fix this...

[jovial cedar]

Oh alright, does the effect vanish completely without reshade on ?

Also for the last one, the sky color should pop more and overall the brightness of the picture is too much

But fixing it would be pointless until you figure out how to save what you modify

Go to reshade settings and see if there's an auto save or something like an auto reset on

If nothing is there, try to reset reshade to default settings

[echo plover]

I intentionally made a manual save. I save manually. But the thing is that if I configure the enabled shader, save the settings, disable it, save it, then for some reason the parameters of the disabled shader are reset. Regarding the brightness of the sky, as for me there should be an even contrast between the sky and the ground. This is my vision. This is achieved with Clarity. I do this on purpose and it suits me. Here's an example of what it looks like without it:

[echo plover]

Definitely not an option. My parameters for disabled shaders are saved, except for MartyMods_RTGI.fx\

[jovial cedar]

Honestly look better to me this way, just too blinding on the sky due to bloom

[echo plover]

Settings are saved only when it is enabled

[echo plover]

I would like to maintain a balance between realism and colorfulness and how I see the picture for gameplay and for screenshots I slightly improve it using the second RTGI

A too bright sky only at sunrise, in my opinion, does not correspond to what I see in life

[jovial cedar]

What I don't understand is why it resets in the first place, can I see your reshade settings?

[echo plover]

Only one shader is reset

I just don't want to make a separate preset. I enabled the preset, where this shader is disabled, and enabled the shader with the configured parameters. That's what I want

[echo plover]

In short, I made a separate preset with this shader enabled. I don't understand why this particular shader resets the parameters. It's not scary.

I just discovered that Marty McFly's iMMERSE shaders all do this, reset settings. Old qUINTs don't do this.

[vernal gale]

Which one is better guys ?
Or maybe they not good enough to fit on this ground ?

I personally like right one as for a stalkerish
But left one is good for clean players
Let's say for tarkov style and green maybe ?

[fossil stirrup]

left

[vernal gale]

Hmm
I'm really thinking about putting alt for some textures

Thanks for your opinion also !

[acoustic echo]

Kiparis ?

[dire needle]

if they were 2x-4x smaller they could fit imo

[echo plover]

right

[dire needle]

made from scratch, ai generated or borrowed form other sources

[vernal gale]

I used texture from another source and then added details to it in Photoshop
It's a little hard to find free old looking pbrs sobi need to use 10 textures with different fill and opacity to merge them to give a dead look
And then I use gigapix for enhancing the detail or even upscale if needed
Sometimes I use stable diffusion ai to generate something I can't find or I need to buy (every one of them more than 3 dollars or euros) or I simply take a shot of the preview and ai helps me to generate or enhance

Good to mention I also use base games files to mix good dead looking

Yea basically there's many things you can do

[tulip bronze]

Good job on the Rotten texture pack, you know about the funny looking rock?

[vernal gale]

Ah yea

I forgot to delete that shit

But I just good very real and nice pbrs for that so don't worry I will fix it

[tulip bronze]

The leafy ground texture with stones though is really nice.

[dire needle]

i wanted to do same thing using ai and base game textures but it takes too much time (5-15 min to regenerate texture based on og one on my poor graphic card + 5 min in materialize to adjust normal) they are lil over-exaggerated but it was test to try how much time it wold take to make some of them + we have GTR made by dobrov

[unreal ermine]

this dead man is choosen karete kid fr

[little gust]

looks cool i would prolly use it if you ever released it

[fossil lily]

is the rotten pack a big overhaul similar to adega or more selective textures

[sage basin]

Borya... How dare you betray me that way... He has been my first companion, there since the beginning, and this is how he repays me

[gloomy steeple]

did npc put rewards on you? that's cool

[dire needle]

I only generated 18 random textures based on the original ones just to give it a try if u want better textures search GTR optimized on anomaly moddb it replaces like half on the game textures

[little gust]

No i like the vanilla textures i just want higher quality

for me i dont really want to replace all the textures to the point where it looks completely different cause the vanilla ones are fine

[bright comet]

Yes... project inverno.

[vernal gale]

I got a little question
Do you use SketchUp textures?
I find out they're really similar to all textures in anomaly and other mod packs and also they are good quality too

[azure lynx]

Wow project inverno looks so insanely good i need to try it one day

[clever badger]

Reworked textures from Adobe Substance, and those that I could find on the Internet. Few textures from Frozen Zone also remade

[alpine nexus]

i havent tested nvidia aa though, any reccomendations for that if you use it yourself?

is this just w atmos? or are you running some other sort of config

[inland igloo]

I just opened NVIDIA control panel and adjusted my contrast and shit(: Nothing special tbh

@fossil lily

[fossil lily]

yeah it didnt look too far off of base with atmos so thats nice, is that with reshade enabled?

[inland igloo]

I have no idea what reshade is I just know how to get my game to work and thats it LMAO

and even that was a challenge when i first learned

[fossil lily]

oh nice thats easier than anything

yeah no worries im honestly just bouncing around and those ss you sent are nice

did you mess w any graphics settings in game?

[inland igloo]

My game ALWAYS looks best when the sun sets/rises tbh it can seem rather bland when its just middle of the day with no weather conditions but I kind of appreciate it going between vibrant and dull considering the setting of the game, also will gloss over my settings and lyk if anything I can take a ss and drop it

[fossil lily]

would appreciate it thank you

and yeah for sure sunrise and set is always amazing

in reference to the photo linked to the reply, can i ask what sort of graphics mods/settings you are using?? your game does look crazy at the moment

• reshade

[fossil lily]

is it just the reshade in zone reality?

or some custom one

[fossil lily]

was it based off of a pre made one?

either way thank you for answering btw

[vestal whale]

in fact, any solution is basic, which means it can be done on any one, you just need to find your configuration (for your eye)

yeah thats okay, i can test out some diff configs and mess around a little

thank you for the time

Imo hippo did a good job with adega
Another example is golden autumn
I put some random from summer options to autumn, some from Gotz and some from Aydin's and you have real looking
Another example for spring I use agro or zone reborn grass and comb of golden autumn summer options with summer and spring spring for best results
