╟🎑reshades

[vague condor]

Atmos is a weather addition but you could load it below I guess

Should still get most effects

[hallow mirage]

i dont use this off

[hallow mirage]

late falls effect are much more prominet

atmos partivclas u get small gust of fog evevy now and again

[vague condor]

The fog effects/fireflies/dynamic fog i believe are tied to particles.xr

As long as nothing is overwriting it you should get them

Just make sure another particles.xr isn't overwriting ASR's one

Hope it helps

[hallow mirage]

idk i turned that of not much diff

i tested it before

[vague condor]

Hmm not sure then since I dont have gamma installed to test

[hallow mirage]

i get the fog but there is flashing clouds (where the fog should be) at night every now again

idk i seem to get way better preformence with late fall rather than atmos and these on :

[vague condor]

I get better perf too but like I said, its cos atmos shaders settings overwrites base sss settings with more emphasis on quality

ASR has none so your game is using base SSS settings for shaders so naturally performance increase

[hallow mirage]

i seem to get better quality on late fall lol

[vague condor]

You could do the same by removing the files in the shaders folder in atmos but obv it wont look as good

[willow granite]

Try to do what my tutorial says https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1118326896296480799
More likely you will get the result you are looking for, you will need to disable G.A.M.M.A. Weathers too, because Late Fall already includes weather settings
If you want the Frozen water then make sure to chose that in the SSS installer, only 1 of the 2 options tho, or you will get a Shader Compilation Error CTD.
Just follow this guide

[hallow mirage]

will do thanks man

[exotic topaz]

any tips to make the game run smoothly, i still stutter even if i tuned down the sun, grass and smoke. i turned on the "turn this on if you stutter". my stats(?in the home button) is like this ^---^---^--^---^ in some areas but on the plain and unpopulated its like this ^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^-^

[slender oracle]

Do you have some spare RAM ?

If yes, check the prefetch mod in the modlist

Also keep in mind that the first moments after a new game is often very stuttery, it calm down later

[icy stratus]

Ignore that, it just means the mod isnt on nexus mods

[hallow mirage]

so how can i do this stuff then in the guide

[icy stratus]

Click on filetree

[bright harness]

can i get a link?

[visual robin]

how am i supposed to install fabio's golden autumn redux?:( i have it in mo2 but when i enable it i get this error, i can't find any instructions that tell me if i have to disable any other mods, change priority or anything :s

[thick gorge]

Golden Autumn conflicts with other weather addons, and soundscape overhaul (thunder)

Try run this Autumn last in addons list

[visual robin]

tried without deactivating any addon, just base gamma profile with golden autumn redux last in addons list and it's still crashing with the same error

[thick gorge]

I can help you but not now, I’m far away from my laptop 😃

All is in thunder settings. Just missing “default” section

[visual robin]

ok ty, i can wait:)

[peak ruin]

what folder do i put this in dude?

[visual robin]

it's just a preset, so, i'm pretty sure the .ini goes in your anomaly folder, inside bin

[peak ruin]

sweet

[visual robin]

then, you know how to select the preset, right?

[molten thunder]

I installed Golden Autumn, and unticked atmospherics -

It was working for a few minutes but now I keep getting shader compilation failed

[molten thunder]

Am I missing something? "

What do I have to disable for Golden Autmn?

[molten thunder]

nvm, i figured ito ut

[swift robin]

I turned off all the autumn/grass options so I can have taller grass and it's still the same size how do I change this?

[molten thunder]

Is there graphics settings we are not supposed to touch when we install texture packs??

[misty echo]

so ive used ASR which im assuming has a similar install process. you need to load gar at the bottom and leave atmos ticked

[molten thunder]

ohh kk

ty

[misty echo]

yea

[molten thunder]

ill try it

[misty echo]

np

this is for asr

should be the same

[molten thunder]

then

I get a diff error

that I have gotten before

any time I have atmos and GAR on at same time

[molten thunder]

: /

fatal error

[misty echo]

wait are you using fabio's golden autumn redux or just some golden autumn textures

[molten thunder]

whatever is in the custom textures channel;

fabio

redux

[misty echo]

did you reenable atmos?

[molten thunder]

yes

it works now

when I disable it

[misty echo]

huh

welp at least it works

[molten thunder]

think I was missing that other stuff

hope its the same list

fabio should really make a custom list of what to disable for this package specifically

um

what the fuck XD

[misty echo]

did you use his ltx file

[molten thunder]

oh

am I supposed to

and where do I find it

[misty echo]

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1jCAlpa5DnN7EADkAcCQVQ1HTo9CdjTt7

[molten thunder]

Shader compilation failure

all I did was replace the ltx

with his

[misty echo]

might be better off just reversing the steps and dropping your ltx back in there

[molten thunder]

I keep getting it working

and then I touch my graphics settings

and it crashes to shader comp failure

[swift robin]

anyone know how to install late fall?

i see it in a lot of the screenshots but im a newb to modding this game so i have no idea what to do

[fierce valve]

does those shadow looks like a shader corruption or something like that? it looks normal on daylight

i think it could be related to shadow cascade from sss

[lunar obsidian]

hello how to install reshade preset ?

[elfin tulip]

Hey fellas

Does anyone have a screenshot of the default GAMMA reshades?

I don't need to individual settings or anything like that, just a pic or list of which ones to check

(oh and if anyone does see this and can help, please feel free to DM to screenshots to me so i can't/don't miss and/or lose them)

[upbeat heath]

Anyone knows the default lighting settings? I messed mine yesterday

[elfin tulip]

Thank you, you're a hero, sir

[misty echo]

no problem

[frigid trellis]

How could i make gamma look like this colour wise

[swift robin]

dutch reshade

[frigid trellis]

Cant tell if your joking or not

[swift robin]

the netherlands reshade is unfortunately not a real thing, you could try setting your weather to never be sunny tho

[frigid trellis]

Brotha

Why

[split vault]

dm me the preset

[near ice]

interesting request

maybe go for walk?

[sharp berry]

[umbral grail]

Someone know if volumetric sun rays mode give more performance than screen space?

[frigid nacelle]

i think volumetric takes up more performance

but i might be talking bullshit

im 70% sure because volumetric sounds way more expensive then screen space

[swift robin]

Any good ideas for DX8?

I don't mind the static lighting, but I'd rather have some effects like lens flares or adaptive vignette sorta stuff

[swift robin]

Got 'em

[red sluice]

rookie

[glossy grotto]

Anyone in-game who can take a picture of the reshade settings section for me? There are a couple of lines there I had to delete for using atmosR+ preset instead of the AtmosGamma preset. It looks like this. I'd really appreciate it!!!

There should be different search paths there that I removed according to what the atmosphere guide told me when using atmosr+ on gamma

[dire radish]

hello people,can anyone tell me where reshade presets go?

[dire radish]

nvm,i found it 🙂

[ivory zenith]

Where do I put presets

!minimap

[void depot]

If you have a circle and square minimap, you are most likely using a widescreen resolution, please use the following fix to get a nice looking minimap: #1093800373132722217 message

[cloud bough]

Does anyone know how to fix / re-find the preset folder for shaders with Reshade?

Managed this and lost the rest of the options, whilst attempting to import an effect to try out

Guess I'll just salvage my save and re install

[leaden granite]

@cloud boughIf you just run the launcher and deselect force zip extraction then install it'll restore all the reshade presets to default. You can copy your user.ltx file somewhere and then copy it back after if you don't want your game settings to change

[ruby crystal]

How can I open that menu where I can configure the shaders? 😮

[leaden granite]

Press the home key

[ruby crystal]

Thanks you!

[leaden granite]

No problem

[ruby crystal]

This is insane!
It's looks awesome

[hallow linden]

Just crank down the saturation

[frigid trellis]

you know the reshade menu that pops up when you press the M2 Home key above the arrow keys on what mod is responsible for that

[brazen shale]

Reshade

[jagged linden]

How do I set up aggressor instead of the other stuff

[cinder cargo]

having a weird effect on some trees etc where the shadows come up silvery light / blue-greenish since I turned on "Shaders cumulative pack for GAMMA"
turning it off causes all sorts of stability issues
what's that mod supposed to do and is it needed?

[south lantern]

Why does sky look so bright? I can only see clouds at dusk

also clouds look bad too

I'm using AtmosR+

[empty shale]

How do I update ReShade for G.A.M.M.A? I have the 5.8.0 setup but I'm uncertain of what S.T.A.L.K.E.R.exe it needs when it asks to select program/application.

[ocean crescent]

1. you shouldn't've updated
2. the anomaly exe

[empty shale]

I didn't update yet. Still on 5.7.0.

[ocean crescent]

then leave it be unless you're super particular about the header in the main menu

[empty shale]

Alright. I'll leave it alone.

[empty shale]

Thank you.

[ocean crescent]

[ruby crystal]

Sorry for the questions, I'm still new to setting up Shaders <xD I'm playing Gamma by default, but I want my game to look like the screenshots, I only have to download those 3 files, right? When I download it, where do I leave it? Do I have to configure and disable something too? If someone has a little tutorial it would be very helpful

[safe cairn]

Does anyone know which settings bomb the fps the most? Theres nothing about it in the framerate optimisation

[random mirage]

Grass density/render distance and World Render distance can bomb fps quite a lot

[safe cairn]

Well, i didnt know that! Good thing that someone sent me a whole grass removal mod lol

[hallow mirage]

@thick gorge how can i remove the snowfall particals and stuff, so it doesnt snow in foggy weather for late fall snowless textures

[thick gorge]

ping me less brother, access to other questions is also closed.

[hallow mirage]

? what u mean

[misty echo]

🤣

[wispy rapids]

He said what he said

Pings are hella annoying

[thick gorge]

Any questions about removing content or replacing it partially or completely. not approved

[swift robin]

how would you get the old emission sky back pre 0.9 the one with the green and orange in it kinda of

[mint owl]

Can you try cfg_load grading_warm or cfg_load grading_cold in the console ?

[icy basin]

Guys, is there any preset to make nights brighter?

[mint owl]

You can't change it in the options ?

[mint owl]

Like the settings ? There is one section for night brightness

[icy basin]

No, its like making it more blue-ish like here

But i found Autumn_new preset here and it kinda makes it

Looks great with spring and summer grass too

[old wharf]

@young stone

hel;p plz

dms

[maiden root]

where do i place this?

in the downloads folder right?

[hardy nest]

i think this is already in gamma

[swift robin]

are there any shades that make the game look vibrant more bright and colorful

[misty echo]

i was able to get gamma pretty vibrant using atmos benis edit and the default atmosgamma reshade

[misty echo]

@thick gorge quick question, trying to get summer season redux working with gamma i disabled all the stuff like with autumn season redux and loaded it at the bottom of mo2 but its still crashing on startup...anything im missing?

[ivory zenith]

#╟🎑reshades messageis the aydins foliage Aydins Grass Tweaks 4.0 ?

[ivory zenith]

Yeah Im using that rn And trying to get that aydins grass mods

[hardy nest]

#1118326896296480799 message try this

sorry for the ping

[misty echo]

no worries i will give it a shot

[weary rivet]

Yes

[ivory zenith]

Oky thx

[shy copper]

haii, anyone got any settings I should try out for reshade, I don't want it super vibrant, I want it alittle grim but not toooooo gim :3

[young stone]

Anyone with tips to make reshade look as good in low lighting (cloudy, dusk etc)?

[thick gorge]

I think atmospherics (only weathers) conflicts with summer. Make copy of atmos, then remove configs in atmos. And check it out

[misty echo]

That did it, you tha man!

[thick gorge]

I think the problem is in the thunder, in the update I will make unversal thunder settings. and summer will work properly without removing anything from atmos

[strange kettle]

Hello, I was wondering
What are the best reshades to get the realistic/beautiful lighting to add on top of gamma?
Maybe some addons as well?
Not necessarily have to be the best optimized out there

[ivory zenith]

#╟🎑reshades message This one is my fav

Really beautiful and realistic imo

It's so good I'm playing at 45fps just for the graphics

[strange kettle]

Oh, thank you
Is there a page on the wiki or a setup tutorial somewhere tho

[ivory zenith]

No you dont need any tutorial
First download this https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/927860562677878795/1112012667213856889/Autumn_New.ini
then this fx files
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/927860562677878795/1112012667968827432/FilmicPass.fx
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/927860562677878795/1112012668358889523/reinline.fx

and drop them into Anomaly/bin/reshade-shaders/shaders

Thats it for reshade preset

But if you want more beauty you can download Aydins foliage and Autumn Season Redux Late Fall

[strange kettle]

Thanks!
Really appreciate the help

[ivory zenith]

And one more thing is if you want more darker grass and tree colors you can reinstall the 289- Grass Tweaks (reinstall for different options) - Aydin to Autumn grass and Autumn Trees like this

[ivory zenith]

Your Welcome ^^

[rare sparrow]

about to try this, thanks for the concise tutorial ❤️

DAMN

[ivory zenith]

You are Welcome ^^

[ivory zenith]

Sheesh

[rare sparrow]

almost no FPS hit either, very surprised

[ivory zenith]

What is your cpu

[rare sparrow]

5950x

[ivory zenith]

Thats normal

Im using ryzen 5 5600 its barely 50 fps

[rare sparrow]

getting like 50-60 outdoors yeah, but i also have draw distance maxed so

[ivory zenith]

When Im gonna get a gun like this Im bored with double barrel

[rare sparrow]

just go to radar, murder everyone 5-10 times, you'll definitely end up with something nice

[zinc bolt]

It kinda reminds me of the bf3 color palette

[stray steeple]

oh wow

[leaden marsh]

It looks great. Like through sunglasses or sg...

[rare sparrow]

TIL that I’ve never even touched ReShade for this game and was playing on the stock setting for years.

[amber trout]

Could you please give me the links (i am very dumb)

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/aydins-grass-tweaks-40 is this it?

[hardy nest]

yes, its the autumn version i think

but dont install it with late fall, late fall already have aydin grass

[sonic girder]

Hey been playing the game for a little bit now, has anyone asked about martymcfly rtgi reshade for gamma?

[trim epoch]

Dunno about martys but i use QUINT's and it works well enough

[sonic girder]

Quint, that sounds familiar, pretty sure i use that in skyrim. I know martys rtgi would be very demanding but would be beautiful

[thick helm]

@rare sparrow for some reason the filmicpass and reinhardlinear don't seem to be showing up for me, despite me putting them in the proper place

should I delete shader cache

[main frigate]

has anybody had any luck running the RAW Reshade?

I keep getting this error

[thick helm]

well I did that, but nothing changed

[tender furnace]

replying ot this to download them later

[oblique bolt]

With the shaders, is the default GAMMA one saved??

Or should I make a save for it before I mess with anything.

[steep mountain]

Hi everyone. Just tried to use a new reshade but it doesn't work as it should. Everything became dark and blurry, and the inventory colours look weird. Am I doing something wrong?
This is happening with "Agressor reshade" and "Duna reshade"

[drowsy fern]

Does anyone have balanced values for the AtmosBody reshade? I hate how much my HUD is stretched out, would be nice, if someone could help me/give me balanced values for the Fisheye effect in reshade

Like, 50% bodycam feel, but also 50% not-too-stretched-out HUD

Would REALLY appreciate it ❤️

[drowsy fern]

Tried these values, kinda satisifed but it could be better imo

If anyone knows more, PLEASE dm me or ping me here ❤️

[gaunt echo]

Hello, I scrolled through this Chanel and saw some pretty amazing mods and reshades, do you guys think it would be possible for me to comfortably run some of these settings with a 2080?

[drowsy fern]

tried these values, slight changes, but still not 100% satisifed... if anyone has a preset that they could send me either here or via DM (both are fine 🙂 ) I'd be forever grateful

[frigid trellis]

can someone give me a screenshot of some cool shader settings

[swift robin]

idk why my Emmison sky is not the one with green and orange in it I did this when I updated to 0.9 how can i change it back to the one on the right

[storm shard]

which preset reshade do yall reccomend?

[bleak cloak]

is there a ram setting cause i feel like gamma is capping its ram

[swift robin]

I tried to install golden autum redux I did everything it said in the discord and got this error message

yo how to open the window in reshade that lets you customize your shader settings

[mint owl]

Home button ?

[swift robin]

yeah i am pressing

its just that the window where you can customize your shader settings is gone

[mint owl]

Can I have a screenshot ?

Of what you're seeing ?

[swift robin]

this is how it looks like when i press home

[mint owl]

Uncheck Performance mode

[swift robin]

oh okay

[mint owl]

Then reload just in case

[swift robin]

ty

[swift robin]

idk why my emmission sky change after i updated to 0.9 but it looks like the one on the left not the right one is there any way to change it

[somber parcel]

my reshade

[hybrid quest]

Can you show a video clip...10-15 seconds running through an area?

I'm LOVING these "Dream-like" looks people are getting.

[hybrid quest]

So what gives this Dream-like look? I just want to now that specific setting lol. Im messing with Sun Rays atm and it's kind of there but they're not as diffused like a dream-state look gives. They are too edged.

[bright gate]

What reshade are you using?

[storm shard]

can yall recommend me some light reshades that make base gamma look slightly better?

[charred spade]

Can someone explain to a dummy like me how do I update reshade? It says there's a new update available in the upper corner...

[icy stratus]

Look up a video guide. It probably works the same as other games and it will explain far better than anyone in this server. It doesnt even have to be specific to anomaly/gamma since all the different games are the same

[charred spade]

Ok I will, thanks.

[somber parcel]

i forgot how to record

[somber parcel]

customized gamma or something like that

[somber parcel]

adding little bit of bloom makes wonders you just gotta add the right one/s

[storm shard]

i dont understand anything about reshading, plz elaborate

[somber parcel]

press home button then mess around

its not that deep you just press buttons and if the game looks better the button stays on

can you copy and paste reshade settings or something

[hybrid quest]

I think I'll mess with the options tomorrow and see what I come up with.

[storm shard]

i just dont wanna fuck my game up, so thats why im a bit caution with these

[somber parcel]

i dont really think these can crash your game

[storm shard]

but they can make it look awful

[somber parcel]

yes but hear me out

if it makes your game awful

just unclick the button

its not permanent bro

[storm shard]

👍

[somber parcel]

check out if that works its my reshade

download and get it to anomaly bin

(rename it if u want to keep OG gamma reshade)

[storm shard]

gee thx

[lucid sentinel]

Does anyone know what does DRME motion estimatimation does in reshades menu? It literally cause a 15 fps drop.

[hard wasp]

How do I set my preset to atmosGAMMA properly? I set it to atmosgamma in the box at the top of the shader page but It seems the shaders that atmosGAMMA uses have been changed permanently. Now whenever I set it to atmosGAMMA it only uses chromatic aberration because I turned off everthing else. What shaders does atmosGAMMA use?

that;s what it looked like when I first started out. I changed some shit and now it's all too colorful and sharp

[somber parcel]

i guess ask someone for clean atmosgamma and install it

[hard wasp]

i dont think i deleted it, just disabled all the things accidentally

i could turn them back on if anyone knows which ones

[somber parcel]

disabled but didnt change?

like only disabled without changing settings of these

[hard wasp]

yes

unchecked

[somber parcel]

why would you do that in the first place

[hard wasp]

i am retarded

[somber parcel]

this is what i have but i dunno if i messed around with it before

[hard wasp]

compressed video doesnt look like ass nice

[hybrid quest]

Couldn't have asked for a better preview. Thanks. MAN, I want to turn my grass up so badly but it's just too resource heavy. Looks good in your world though.

[somber parcel]

im out here running with 20-40 fps but its worth it

[hybrid quest]

I love it.

So im messing with Blooming HDR and it is 100% the effect I've been looking to...give life...to stalker. Many options to learn but first was to get the game to just feel a bit new age.

Unfortunately I now have some weird blur now even when disabling the effects so i think something got mucked up when testing. Im going to restart.

I made a new Preset and it removed the blur. Not sure what happened as I only had 1 setting turned on...when i turned it off to see the difference I noticed a blur. So even adjusting just 1 setting and then turning it off, I've already found an issue. Lol.

Alright. Got it back to default default lol. Apparently an option was still "working" so maybe turning them on/off quick is a bad thing. Bakc to it.

Step 1.
Adjust overall Visuals
Effect = Blooming HDR

Before

After

No real bloom, just, better colors for now.

[somber parcel]

magic bloom is good

i also use ADOF

it removes the sharp pixelated stuff in the far by making it blurry

[hybrid quest]

I did like ADOF.

Messing with SSR but CANT get it to stop making my guns look pixely...

Looks like just the Blooming HDR is all for now. Going to play a day with it. Nights don't look right yet though.

I did see quite a few blooms but Magic is another one I'll try.

Blooming HDR allows things like Battery bars and Medicine icons to glow but nothing else. Sadly the bloom works in a specific area so some spots look like actually lights and others do not.

Curious if there is anything that works with it to aloow LIGHT bloom but not ICON bloom.

So an image of a Propane tank gives no bloom but the battery bars should.

THis is as close as I get to glowing battery and medicine icons but as you see the bloom seems to have a weird FOV or frame of reference that isn't per icon. So some icons in the inventory glow but not all even if they have like icons.

I want things like the blood icon on tourniquet to glow but not the item itself.

So Im close but...no cigar.

So very close.

Still some items are a bit too intense while others not so much. That artefact in the top right is BEAT RED!

Magic Bloom is not giving the effect I'd like.

PPFX Bloom is a good one for me too. Makes Lights bloom but not icons so much.

Just can't get the right overall loo lol. If only I could select parts of the game for bloom lol.

qUINT_Solaris is okay too but none of them focus on lgiht objects and instead eventually create a complete image bloom which is not how it should work since not everything GIVES light. Yes things reflect it but I want to focus on what GIVES light, and add bloom onyl to light emitting objects rather than reflective blooms.

[hybrid quest]

prod80_02_Bloom is good but still...no focus on light objects only. I might just stick with Blooming HDR for the color increase.

[woven birch]

Why does your inventory remind me of Christmas lights? 😄

[hybrid quest]

Lol. So festive.

Goal is to get bloom on light emitting objects...only.

I think I might overlap a few bloom options that could provide the effect, just going to take a bit.
Here's hoping.

[somber parcel]

i think you overdid with the bloom

[hybrid quest]

I GOT IT THIS TIME lol. Blooming HDR + PD80 bloom gets me the look I need without muddying the world. Picture incoming.

Before (Default GAMMA)

After = SimpleShader

Now...to mess with Sun Rays a bit more and I think we have a solid look going here.

Psy-storms are so sick with Sun rays setup properly. Really changes the look and feel of them.

I checked the bin folder for my Shader but it's not there. Reshade says Anomaly/bin but mine are not there. I want to rename it and dlete the others I made for testing.

Also. the color vibrance can be achieved with the blooming HDR without adding bloom if anyone wanted better colors without using the VIBRANCE effect. 1 less effect running is a good thing.

Going to take time to setup ADOF. it looks so cool and useful but I just haven't found a good setting to make it look and run the way I feel it should.

Anyone with custom ADOF looks. I guess you don't need to show me the settings but pictures would be ncie to see different looks.

[hybrid quest]

Also.

Anyone get SSR working without pixelating weapons?

I SOOOO want SSR to work lol.

[somber parcel]

ssr is enabled by default and it doesnt pixelate weapons

[hybrid quest]

AtmosGAMMA defaults. No SSR.

SSR enabled on Atmos GAMMA.

Notice the gun is now...pixelated.

[storm shard]

guys im using the default grim reshade, can yall help me make this slightly more vibrant and warm?

[hybrid quest]

Let me go here and compare mine for you

Lol. In Garbage but where exactly/.

[storm shard]

just outside of the train hanger

i dont undertand much about reshades, so im glad you can help

[hybrid quest]

Im in that spot and my area is not showing any of those structures lol.

[storm shard]

u sure?

send a screenshot

[storm shard]

its the same as mine

[hybrid quest]

Lol. My bads.

[storm shard]

i wanna make my reshade slightly more 'colory'

[hybrid quest]

This is just 2 options.

[storm shard]

if that makes sense

[hybrid quest]

Try first...

Vibrance at the very bottom

TUrn on and crank it up.
If not enough I could show you my Blooming_HDR (which REALLY brings the color)

But that's bloom oriented and very preferential to people.

[storm shard]

is the bloom resource needy?

[hybrid quest]

My inventory

[storm shard]

damn, bro is soo radiated that his inventory glows

[hybrid quest]

2 FPS drop.

Yessir. i wanted a slight glow to light emitting objewcts

[storm shard]

damn thats alot

you play with that?

[hybrid quest]

Yes...

It's barely noticeable to me

Lol.

[storm shard]

how in gods name u play with 2 fps??

[hybrid quest]

NOOOOOOOOO

[storm shard]

?

[hybrid quest]

I take a 2FPS HIT with my shader setup

[storm shard]

ah so 2 frames less

i see

[hybrid quest]

You said if it was resource needy

Lol.

;P

Haha

I average about 40fps in 1440p.

[storm shard]

so for bloom, should i enable this?

[storm shard]

i prefer to reduce most graphics so my games run at a stable 60 fps

[hybrid quest]

1sec

prod80_02_bloom

Blooming HDR

[storm shard]

i dont have blooming hdr

[storm shard]

just this

[hybrid quest]

It should be in there

[storm shard]

probably cuz im on dx9

[hybrid quest]

Hmmmmm.

Ahh crud.

Blooming HDR is what really makes the game sing in color for me.

Do you have Vibrance?

[storm shard]

yes

i played around with it, but my reshade is still really cold

[hybrid quest]

My notes for now

Okay, just crank that to max for now. That'll bring a little color back.

[storm shard]

looks more alive now

[hybrid quest]

Hey, no more gray

HAHA. It's a start

[storm shard]

yep

and other filters i can apply?

[hybrid quest]

And dont be afraid to just turn options on if you want. You can always click it right bakc off if it looks back

Reshade really is just click on...love it, leave it. Hate it, click it back off.

[storm shard]

aha finally found blooming hdr

but nothing happens when move the sliders around

do i turn on auto bloom

[hybrid quest]

First. Copy all my settings above.

[storm shard]

ight

[hybrid quest]

Take your time and copy the settings correctly. I cant stress how often people skip 1 or 2. Like Santa, check it twice for me.

Basically we just use Blooming HDR for color. Not the bloom.

[storm shard]

im in love with this

perfection

[hybrid quest]

Niceness.

Now I must MAKE SURE for my own sake. Did you, just to verify myself, turn off Auto Exposure?

[storm shard]

where that at?

[hybrid quest]

Just making sure, that is like the 1 setting we MUST turn off, it causes issues.

Here's a better view.

[storm shard]

i did it, not a big difference

[hybrid quest]

It's adaptive and will make things look...weird. So long as it's off you're good

Okay. Now you want the real bloom?

[storm shard]

thx, but im happy with the current reshade

[hybrid quest]

Alrighty

I assumed as much lol

Bloom is a hard sell

We got you colors though. Mission Accomplished.

[storm shard]

btw

do you know how i can reduce this noise?

after the reshade everything is noisier

[hybrid quest]

Noise...hmm. That I did not have to deal with.

I use DX11 and did not have a "noise" issue.

Can i see a complete photo.

[storm shard]

in regular gamplay its unnoticable, but when using UI, boy is it hard to read

thx for the skill issue falco

[hybrid quest]

This is my PDA with the same shader settings

[storm shard]

my pda

see how the texts arent as clear?

[hybrid quest]

Okay. Lets see some things.

First Open Reshade and Click COLLAPSE ALL.

Then Click the Arrow next to Blooming HDR.
Send me a picture of all the settings

[storm shard]

these are all the things i use

[hybrid quest]

OMG

FilmGrain what are you doing?

LMAO.

That's literally noise right there.

Lol.

[storm shard]

should i disable it?

i did, nothing changed

[hybrid quest]

Just to see if that's it but filmgrian is never a good thing for cvlarity.

IDK all the other effects

I only use 2 on top of Default AtmosGAMMA

I dont have experience in those other effects but surely onje of them is causing you the issue.

Best bet is to copy AtmosGAMMA (Make new preset and inherit) then start with JUST the 2 we discussed.

[storm shard]

alright, will do

[hybrid quest]

Good?

[storm shard]

all good

[hybrid quest]

Still can't get the pixelation of SSR to go away without also removing what SSR is there for...reflections. Just might not be the game for it.

Anyone have setting suggestions for SSR?

[somber parcel]

make sure that you can see the sky and its not just glowing nothingness

[somber parcel]

oh that just makes everything wet

theres ssr in game enabled already but actually looks good

and if you really want ssr from reshade just move sliders around

[somber parcel]

(it will look really weird)

[digital oxide]

anyone have preset recommendations for project inverno?

[lucid sentinel]

Remind me 😂

[somber parcel]

windows button + alt + r

[lucid sentinel]

And then where do you find the video?

[somber parcel]

in videos?

like literally it says videos in my computer

[lucid sentinel]

https://tenor.com/view/hmm-ok-okay-then-gif-24387952

[lucid sentinel]

Ok for a sec i was a bout to ask what a wideo is, then saw the rest.

What settings you use for ur shaders? Ur game looks nice from the video.

[somber parcel]

i added few things just now but i dont know how it will look in long run so im not posting it yet

[lucid sentinel]

Thanks will check it out once i’m home…i have also made my tweaks. They look nice too. But a bit heavy.

[somber parcel]

my reshade is like a 5 to 10 to 20 fps drop

doesnt matter to me though

[lucid sentinel]

Yeah running at 30-40 fps isn’t that bad, compared to the visual gains

[swift robin]

anyoone that can give me gamma atmos reshade (default) bc i screwed up smthing

[gaunt pawn]

@lucid sentinel

[somber parcel]

beautiful

great for dark playthroughs

ill download

[hybrid quest]

You didn't read my post lol. I already said I tried adjusting and the only way to remove pixelation is to remove the reflections. So I'm asking those with experience for help. SSR doesn't make everything wet, it makes everything reflective. Wet has a thickness where reflections are flat surfaces. So metals of guns are considered reflective and thus have weird pixelations due to their curved designs.

If anyone finds a good Effect that matches with SSR to remove pixelation (maybe a noise reduction filter) then we could be in business. For now I'll ask but I will keep trying different options.

[hybrid quest]

#🔨base-gamma-support message

[somber parcel]

just dont use ssr from reshade it doesnt look good

[lucid sentinel]

I tried ur reshade btw…didn’t look great I believe because i had autumn grass

[somber parcel]

i have spring trees and summer+spring grass combined

[nova sandal]

damn how'd you do this? I'm new to modding graphics so I don't really know how, I don't wanna fuck up

[gleaming steeple]

hey, how can I find custom reshade configs? like atmos, phrozac? and how can I install them?

[somber parcel]

its probably tweaked preset

[somber parcel]

look at where my cursor is

[gleaming steeple]

I think I'm being misunderstood, I know those came with gamma installation, what I'm asking is how can I add more to those presets?

[somber parcel]

like just how to add more presets

[gleaming steeple]

yeah like agressor or other stuff, I see people with many different reshades

[somber parcel]

go to anomaly bin folder

then add ini file with preset in this folder

[gleaming steeple]

where can I find .ini files to download?

I guess this channel has some

[somber parcel]

this is ini file

[gleaming steeple]

thanks

[somber parcel]

this is ini file

[nova sandal]

where to do I put the .ini files this guy shared?

[past shuttle]

Anomaly\bin folder

[nova sandal]

grazie

if I want to back to the default, can I just delete it? or do I need the default .ini tweaks?

[past shuttle]

Just go back to the default reshade if it does not fit your taste. See: #╟🎑reshades message

[gaunt pawn]

You can also find many good custom presets in Nexus Mods.

just experiment with what you like.

[somber parcel]

stalker anomaly mods on nexus is defo top 10 cursed things

[frozen barn]

DAYUM

[frozen barn]

To be honest im shocked just a shader can do that damn

[somber parcel]

shaders are the whole reason stalker can look triple a

[nova sandal]

I think its beyond triple a now

[somber parcel]

it wont always look like that though

he had to select correct position in correct map with correct weather

[ebon mulch]

@hybrid quest can i get your .ini?

[hybrid quest]

#╟🎑reshades message

I adjusted Vibrance down a bit since then due to some lighted areas being a bit RED. Lol. It's a start to what i wanted and that was a more dream-like game. The bloom can be easily turned off but colors still vibrant. Just turn off prod80.

prod80 = bloom
blooming_hdr = colors

[lethal urchin]

Nothing like a nice little relaxing emission to show-off a Reshade config, is there? 😎

(I hope to god they include emissions in Stalker 2 - I'd cream to see a proper blowout in Unreal 5)

[dense falcon]

What are the best reshade options to enable and make game graphics realistic asf?

[hybrid quest]

Real? Ehh, I had a weird feeling that FGFX(?) can add some "realism" but I barely tweaked it. My first impression of FGFX was that it made things look more realistic. But, it also made my night SOLID BLACK. Again, I didnt tweak it much, just turned it on and looked around a bit. The items looked better in some ways.

[granite steeple]

what the kind of toz is?

[somber parcel]

it could be something with SSS

[fierce valve]

I ask asci about that and he told me that that was a vanilla ilumination issue

[somber parcel]

this too

[lethal urchin]

ambient occlusion makes a huge difference

I like PPFX SSDO (I think that's what it's called). MXAO isn't bad but I find it a little too heavy (it fuckes with the inventory & menu screens quite a lot) and a little more resource heavy, but if you're open to tweaking with the settings you can find a happy medium. I use MXAO in a few other games, but I prefer SSDO for STALKER
(sorry wrong reply)

[lethal urchin]

(wrong reply - see message above)

I also like a little bit of LUT, AmbientLighting, and a touch of PPFX Bloom if you reduce the bloom intensity & don't mind fiddling with the tonemap settings to get the blacks/contrasts looking noice 👌

the DoF shaders tend to be very messy and resource heavy, I find the in-game DoF to be just fine. That's just preference though

[bright gate]

Loner heading to one of his many quest in the zone

[zinc bolt]

the new sss update works fine

also nvg goggles still work

[hybrid quest]

I have enough trouble getting 1 guy to follow me even with the lowest anti AWOL settings. I can't imagine taking 8 morons with me around this place. HAHA. That's a lot of MULE power though.

[zinc bolt]

some of them follow me and stay close and some of them decide to follow me but only when there's a fight xd

These 3 follow me around everywhere

the rest are brainless

[hybrid quest]

lol.

I love that they help me detect people over ridges or around corners but them walking right in front of gunfire or running TO a mutant to shoot it absolutely kills (laughter of sadness) me.

Like who runs UP to a pack of dogs to shoot 1

Lol.

The companion AI is one part of Anomaly I really really need to be improved. If im in full auto they walk right in font of me and BAP, bye bye head.

[bright gate]

Everytime I open Gamma it say the reshade has an update, 5.8.0 version, do i update it or

[somber parcel]

best solution is ignore it

[livid marten]

bro thank you so much for this, game looks so much better now

[livid marten]

Idk if I messed up somewhere but is there a way to make the fog not so blinding in this reshade?

[livid marten]

How do I change that?

[somber parcel]

for me it was reducing bloom

[livid marten]

Sorry to bother you but what sliders exactly? I cant seem to find it

[somber parcel]

i dont fucking know

[bright gate]

how do you download and use someone else reshade?

[hybrid quest]

I will work on that. There are some drawbacks as in (Helicopters can't be seen from certain heights), and fog can be...THICK, but I personally enjoy the thickness but also also, understand why it can be a bother as the games auto fog is already so much, add fog weather plus this bloom and you have something you so thick you can cut it.

The main goal was to get a dream-like feel first. I am going to keep working on tweaking the reshade to make it a bit more universally balanced.

Next goal is to adjust for darn night and/or super bright nights as NVG's can act up with the shader (I think). Lots to learn but I'll update any changes when i do.

[livid marten]

Sounds good! I ended up just turning off the prod80 bloom and kept the colors from blooming hdr

[somber parcel]

download ini file

drag ini file from downloads to anomaly/bin

[bright gate]

I drop the file into anomaly/bin, how to do i use the reshade? I dont see it in the home button screen

[somber parcel]

oh my god just someone pin tutorial already

cursor

[bright gate]

Yeah i know that I just dont see it

[somber parcel]

ok so check if its same name as other presets and if it is then rename it and if its not appearing then you either have a bad eyesight or you dont place it in right folder

[bright gate]

ok

[pure nebula]

So uh, where did the configuration menu that should be at the bottom go?
I'm trying to install agressor, followed the stuff on the ModDB page, but I can't tweak anything or find gamma, brightness and that other stuff

[mint owl]

Uncheck Performance Mode

Then reload reshade

[pure nebula]

Thankkks

[rare sparrow]

am make game prebby

[pure nebula]

So I'm pretty sure agressor shouldn't look like this. Before I attempt the r2 fix, I want to find the "basic light settings" because I can't seem to find it anywhere

[rare sparrow]

lemme check -- they're under Video or some shit

[rare sparrow]

you have to be in-game to access the basic light stuff but I found it:

you can't access this until you're loaded into the zone

[pure nebula]

Thanks

Also, do i have to update reshade?

[abstract eagle]

Hey everyone - There a way to get a fisheye lens view?

[zinc bolt]

does anyone know why agressor looks so dark?

[somber parcel]

its because its night

[zinc bolt]

I mean when compared to other reshades, agressor looks way darker

[bleak portal]

Just turn on/off effects in reshade and look which one affects shadows, adjust it on ur taste

[hybrid quest]

Remember, you don't need to Reshade every aspect. Dynamic Tonemap in MCM is powerful for adjusting these key scenario's.

[dire epoch]

Anyone got a good reshade preset for gamma?

[frigid hatch]

Hello. Does anyone know a way to make the skybox be brightened up by NVGs as much as the rest of the scene?

[frigid hatch]

Now that I think about it, it may have to do with the NVG mod and this is the wrong channel for this but idk tbh

[neat bison]

There is an option for this in base game settings. Weather/Night options. something like this.

You can adjust the night bright/very bright etc.

[harsh basin]

hello there...can someone help me with this

[pure nebula]

I get a msg to update reshade to 5.8 each time I launch the game

How do I do that?

[pure nebula]

I've managed to get agressor reshades to look good for scenery, but all the hud is still dark and I can't brighten it without flashbanging everything else :/

[thorny vortex]

do you have performance mode ticked in the bottom right? if so disable it

[somber parcel]

how the hell is it dark

[somber parcel]

THE SKY IS CLEAR

[fierce valve]

is there any way to improve this shadow radius?

[bleak portal]

its totaly fine, looks brighter than mine with default reshade. Check your monitor settings, it will help, also try to download ICC/ICM color profile specificaly for ur monitor

[lethal urchin]

this reminds me of one of the Borderlands 2 or 3 DLCs

[hybrid quest]

MCM > SSS Shadow Cascades?

Not sure if that's it but default settings are perfectly fine.

[visual hearth]

SSS grass shadows, try medium or high

[fierce valve]

Thank u both i was thinking about the removing faar shadows thing but i’m gonna try this too

[pure nebula]

So there's nothing at all in the settings that could increase only HUD brightness/gamma?

[deep wharf]

so i wanna make the game look as good as possible is this a good pick for mods?

[storm shard]

i downloaded these, but how does one use them?

i moved the rehsade the the bin folder, but where do the fx files go?

[somber parcel]

same folder i think

[hardy nest]

open the reshade folder, then move the fx files right there

[storm shard]

welp, lets see if autumn redux works

[lucid sentinel]

Bet u r encountering barbies instead of mutants 😂

[bleak portal]

black level should do a thing. Maybe brightness/contrast

did you install icc profile?

[pure nebula]

Don't know what icc is : /

[bleak portal]

google something like <<your monitor model>> icc profile

you will find someone tests

they will explain how to colibrate your monitor

and will give u icc profile

icc profile is something like premade settings for ur monitor

[swift robin]

guys what stenting shaders you use?

and what mod for gamma mods list

[lucid sentinel]

What do you mean?

[lucid sentinel]

I use atmoR+ shader as base with major tweaks to it.

[swift robin]

why are some of my trees bright and some of them painted black in the distance??? happened to me after disabling screen space shaders in mo2 for an (quite immense) fps boost... any fixes for that?

heres another pic where you can see it more clearly

[neat bison]

I installed Gamma and in the black windows there is an error : Unable to save shortcut.

How can I fix it?

late to reply by a couple of days, but you don't need to, so don't
unless it actually really bothers you in which case you could but you're on your own

just wait and see if Grok decides to in a future update or not

[indigo cliff]

This is artwork lol. What reshade and tree mod is that?

[swift robin]

atmospheres R+ with vibrance turned on

[hardy grotto]

what is the best reshade that doesnt kill much fps

[icy stratus]

How hard does capa's reshade tank fps? It looks really nice im just afraid of getting 30 frames lol

[fierce valve]

I’m trying to play without atmospherics but as soon as i try to play i get the shader compilation error i delete shaders cache folder but i keep with the same

Could this be related to the reshade installed on root folder ?

[shy sapphire]

anyone knows what could be causing this ? got inverno + graupel

[next hull]

It looks so pretty and happy! "La de daa, I'm off to hunt artefacts!" 😄

[neat yoke]

drew doesn't touch his gamma its just base gamma

[icy stratus]

Reshades dont cause shader errors. Other mods probably require atmospherics/others have patches for it so it isnt as simple as just removing that one mod

[swift robin]

download??/

it looks very very nice

[royal plaza]

yea i could probably add one

[royal plaza]

thx

[swift robin]

kinda a fan of the bright hud ngl

[royal plaza]

oh ahaha, yeah its kind of interesting, but i dont like the main menu, the environment almost fuses with it, and its kind of noticeable

but aside from that yeah i think it looks neat

[swift robin]

yea main menu is too saturated

[royal plaza]

indeed

thankfully we dont spend much time on the main menu

[swift robin]

yea i was gonna say its not too big of a deal

[royal plaza]

imma actually repost the video with the file too

gimme a second need to check on my dog he dont seem to be doing well rk

my first reshade
there is room for improvement obviously, such as bright ui ( mainly on anything white )
and the menu is too saturated ( and fuses with the in-game environment )
aside from that, i quite like how this turned out.

[meager smelt]

how does agressor reshade work, ive never heard of it untill now, it it like reshade or is it like console commands

[swift robin]

@meager smelt its a reshade (mod) you can enable in mod organizer 2. but you have to disable some other mods in mo2 for it to work, so better watch a yt vid if you want to try it...

[subtle sparrow]

how do i update reshade to 5.8.0 like it says in the menu?

[grizzled cypress]

im wondering the same thing

[subtle sparrow]

i assume it is just download and replace but idk if its that simple

[grizzled cypress]

i have a seperate reshade standalone program i use for other games and it is the 5.8 version but im afraid ill break gamma if i use it. i cant find and reshade application inside any of the gamma files. so thats were im stuck at

[subtle sparrow]

ah right

[orchid shuttle]

what reshade do u guys reccomend for 4gb 3050, id11400H (2.70 GHz), 16GB RAM

idk anything about reshade and how it works

all ik is it makes game look more realistic

[mortal shuttle]

If I remember correctly (this is how it was pre 0.9), the Agressor in Gamma is only textures, you'd need to reinstall it and follow the instructions on the moddb page to set it up correctly, its more than just a reshade preset.

[mortal shuttle]

The included AtmosR looks nice and doesn't impact performance a lot, if at all. You could give Capa's reshade a shot, but you might need to disable a few effects like MXAO/GloomAO to get a playable framerate. With Capa's reshade I was getting around 103-110 FPS, after disabling the two AO effects, I sit around 140. I'm running a Ryzen 7 5800X3D and RX 6950XT though, so your results will be vastly different

[orchid shuttle]

thanks mate

[mortal shuttle]

[cinder cargo]

Had something similar happen when messing around trying new shades settings ... clearing the shader cache sorted it out for me

[shy sapphire]

Ill give that a go, cheers

[past shuttle]

Hey Apollo nice to see/read you again. I often used your Reshade from last year. And from time to time i even use it nowadays. 🙂 Capa`s Reshade looks great but it can really tank fps. I modified Hippos AtmosFilm Reshade at one point to get a similar look. I modified PD80_02_Bonus_LUT_pack and tried alot. I have chosen PD80_LutSelector=43 to get a Capa Reshade look alike. And for me it gets the job more than done without too much fps tanking. No offense against Capa or his great work!

[mint owl]

Does Immersive MXAO tanks as well ?

I'm using quarter rate

[earnest prairie]

oh yeah i should try disabling the AO

I got similar specs to you

just aa bit older

[mortal shuttle]

You have similar specs and are getting 35 fps?

[mortal shuttle]

I'll have to give it a shot

[earnest prairie]

well a few years older

i got an r7 3700x

rx 5700 xt

16gb ram

i should prolly get 32gb

surprisingly i get the same fps with the original gamma reshape tho

[mint owl]

Currently using it for my own preset, much better than normal mxao

[earnest prairie]

is that like a mod

[mortal shuttle]

Probably a bottleneck somewhere

[earnest prairie]

maybe

[mortal shuttle]

Reshade effect

[earnest prairie]

i got

ok

ill test them out later

i also play 1440p so maybe that affects it

[mortal shuttle]

I do as well

[vernal meadow]

anyone gotten agressor to work>

[mortal shuttle]

I used to run Agressor pre-0.9, if you follow the instructions on the moddb page you shouldn't have any issues

[thorn owl]

if you need a more performance friendly preset, I modified Capa's to remove the fancy effects. It keeps the color grading and overall vibe, and gives back ~25-30 FPS for me

before and after

I am GPU bottlenecked so it might be less of a drastic difference for you

[earnest prairie]

hmm ill try it if just disable mxao doesn’t help much

looks pretty close for both pics

are trees and foliage at a distance supposed to look kinda flickery and crusty tho?

i tried turning up anti aliasing

didn’t do much

like the edges of leaves when i move around

[thorn owl]

yeah in-game AA isn't very good, I use SMAA on very high and it has barely any performance impact but does an okay job

to truly get rid of aliasing you'll need 1.5-2x upscaling like DSR

[mortal shuttle]

I tried DSR a while ago at 1080p and it just deepfried my game and made it a lot worse, idk what the hype is about, maybe I messed something up

[knotty saddle]

this is a great alternative thank you, went from 30fps to 55-60

[earnest prairie]

DSR?

[earnest prairie]

Is it like AMD FSR

wouldn’t upscaling ur resoulution by 1.5-2x basically half ur fps

[thorn owl]

yeah. price you pay for better visuals

if I had a 4080 I'd do it

[earnest prairie]

ngl i notice no differences

what changed?

[thorn owl]

I disabled a bunch of the effects, HDR, contrast, lighting-related, but kept the color and regrading effects

[earnest prairie]

ah ok

also what’s ur opinion on adof

i don’t think it affects fps but it kinda makes things blurry and for me fucks up the inventory and settings ui half the time

[thorn owl]

I think in-game DOF is good enough with SSS, I have it cranked to max for ADS

yeah reshade DOF is inconsistent, I don't use it

[earnest prairie]

i’m tryna figure out how to turn off sss dof

unticked everything and dragged the sliders down

dof still turns on

i might try playing with a bit of dof tho

whats the default settings?

[thorn owl]

you can set the intensity/blur sliders to 0 it should disable it, and turn off the options at bottom

these are default SSS settings:

[earnest prairie]

alright ty

i also tried reloading dof

and that was straight up

unplayable 💀

[meager smelt]

how do I install agressor reshade do i just enable it here?

I waa told its textures and not a reshade right?

[true cliff]

its just the weather and textures

[meager smelt]

and do I just click enable is there anything I need to disable

[mortal shuttle]

If you want the full reshade, you need to redownload it and follow the instructions on moddb

[meager smelt]

so I just want the textures and weather so do I just click enable

[earnest prairie]

alright so i tried it

[meager smelt]

and is there anything i need to disable I was told I need to disable a few mods

[earnest prairie]

and got +10-15 fps

now im hovering 40-45

pretty good

turning off mxao and gloomao didn't change my fps at all in the original tho

btw where do i find immersive mxao

[mint owl]

Have you disabled "Distant Shadow Culling" by any change ?

[earnest prairie]

i got it on

[mint owl]

Turn it off

And look around

[earnest prairie]

alr

nothing changes

not even fps

it looks pretty fine i guess

im just tryna get to 60 fps rn

[mint owl]

I think it was part of Atmospherics 1.83.5

[earnest prairie]

adof looks weird with the performance preset

holup maybe my stalker just needs glasses

i need that

[earnest prairie]

alright ill try that

yeah played with the blue curves

doesn't really change much

just how blurry it always is

not when im focusing at something

i prolly won't play with it

Sounds like you're cpu bound

If your Motherboard supports it try to get an ryzen 5700x. Normally a bios update is necessary and will do the trick. "Cheap update" and will double your fps in GAMMA.

Or you go "all in" for the 5800X3d! This will help a lot! 😄

[sage basalt]

I use a 5800H (laptop version, about 10-15% less performance), but still get CPU bottlenecked in Stalker Anomaly and it seems that I can't go above 55-60 fps :/
Do you know if DLSS will somehow be added by a god modder or is this out of the question ? It'd help a lot for those like me playing with higher res.

[past shuttle]

Its both: i nearly tripled my fps in GAMMA with high settings upgrading from Ryzen 1800X and GTX 1080 to Ryzen 5700x and RTX 4070.

[mortal shuttle]

it's a beast, highly recommend especially if you can find one on sale, prime day and newegg's sale is on right now

easy 120-140fps at 1440p, even in dead city and rostok

[past shuttle]

For sure it is. Personally iam totally fine with my 5700X but if had to update now i would chose the 5800X3D. Best money value thing to give your "old" amd plattform 2-3 years more.

[thorn owl]

Same here, went from 4770K to 7800X3D, and doubled my FPS everywhere on 1080p with just the platform upgrade

[leaden marsh]

I think it looks great. Funny. I could imagine something like the Doom 2016 weapon wheel slowdown with this look

[earnest prairie]

yeah it looks fine but i’d rather i be able to see lol

[cunning thistle]

the thing with dsr is that ultimately it's either using a lot of AA on native, or less AA on DSR, then see which fps/quality ratio you can live with

[cunning thistle]

you're using 2x, you should use 1.78x if you want 2K (1440p), you can also increase the smoothness, it'll blur the image, but for stalker it's worth it i'd say

[vapid fiber]

Went from gtx1070 / ryzen 1600

To gtx4070 / 5800x3d

Can confirm the fps gains were worth

By the way, I haven’t actually messed with reshades with the new build yet

Anyone have suggestions for the best graphically pleasing reshade?

[earnest prairie]

capa's reshade

[earnest prairie]

$630 for a 7800x3d

wild

5800x3d for $430

ngl i should prolly upgrade my ram to 32gb first

[thorn owl]

It was a once-a-decade upgrade so price wasn't an issue if it's gonna last me 8-10 years

I still have to upgrade my GPU though

[earnest prairie]

yeah i guess

ive been running an r7 3700x 16gb ram and rx 5700 xt for about 4 years

[vapid fiber]

I got mine for $290

Where do you live Canada?

[earnest prairie]

YEA

yea

canada

[vapid fiber]

Ah makes sense

[mortal shuttle]

ah fellow resident of the country of inflation

I just built my R7 5800x3d/RX 6950xt system about a month ago and so far has impressed me, I upgraded from a R5 1600x/RTX 2060 so the difference is crazy

Would've gone with am5 but it's still in its infancy and I for sure would've run into some issues knowing my luck

[proud snow]

lmao i was also planning on upgrading cpu/gpu

i also have a 2060 and a r5 1600

so what resolution are you playing and hows the performance?

[mortal shuttle]

Yeah I remember talking with you about performance about a year ago cause we basically had the same build

[proud snow]

i wanted to upgrade the gpu only, but then realized i would also have to change the PSU but the cpu will bottleneck and bla bla bla

[mortal shuttle]

I get around 120-140 fps in most maps at 1440p using Capa's reshade with MXAO/GloomAO off

[proud snow]

so it's better to just build a entire new pc

[mortal shuttle]

Yeah exactly, a whole new rig is the way to go

[proud snow]

yeah I also have a b350 motherboard so yeah its 100% a new rig for upgrading

I wasn't sure if it's worth upgrading to last of AM4 something like a 5800x3d with a 3090/6800XT or go AM5 and buy a 7800x3d

[mortal shuttle]

I decided to play it safe with AM4 and it'll still last years for sure, but if you want to upgrade your rig overtime in the future AM5 is probably better

Also like I said AM5 is prone to issues since it's still so new so that was a major reason why I went with AM4

[proud snow]

one concern for me in upgrading is the resolution, I have a 1080p display but can't find any decent price on my country for a display thats 1440 or 4k due to taxes

will probably stay on the 1080p and use DSR/VSR and force 2k or 4k

[mortal shuttle]

ah that sucks balls

with a PC that beefy, 1440p or 4k is a must

but ig 1080p upscaled isn't too bad

[thorn owl]

you could drop in 5800X3D in your mobo and keep your RAM, but if you want a complete new system, at this point AM5 DDR5 is the way to go

[thorn owl]

I personally haven't had issues with AM5 platform, just have to flash newest BIOS once and you're set

[mortal shuttle]

Stop making me regret building an AM4 rig

[thorn owl]

I mean it's not bad, it's still top of line performance which will last you another 5 years

[mortal shuttle]

I could still technically upgrade it, just need a new mobo, ram and cpu

[proud snow]

this is my current build, only that now i have a rtx 2060 and one more 8gb stick so its 2x8

I shared it on the buildapc discord and instantly got told to just build a entire new rig lol

[mortal shuttle]

You would need to upgrade so many pieces of it anyway

How's your case and cooling?

[proud snow]

good i guess

didn't install any extra, only the ones that came with the case and seems to run good on temperatures

[mortal shuttle]

Temps were good for me as well, but these newer parts get fuckin hot

so much hotter

[proud snow]

yeah I read that the 5800x3d doesn't come with a stock cooler

and you need to undervolt? it, even with cooler bc it gets hot

saying that if you undervolt it, performance is the same but temperatures get lower

[mortal shuttle]

I undervolted with the bios setting called Kombo Strikes

Yes performance is relatively the same and temps could get up to 5-10 degrees cooler

The real heater is the gpu

Playing stalker it gets up to 80 degrees on the hot spot, even with an undervolt on it

Cpu isn't too bad at around 60 degrees

I have extra noctua case fans and a beefy noctua cpu cooler as well

[proud snow]

if you have it, could you send me your current build list?

haha

to have something as reference if I decide to go with am4

[mortal shuttle]

Absolutely

Sent in DMs

[proud snow]

thanks!

[thorn owl]

Same here, using good ol NH-D15 from old PC, 7800X3D never goes above 75C maximum under load, average 55C

[past shuttle]

Hehe running NH-D15 and noctua case fans too. 😄 CPU gets up to 75-80 degrees because i run a very low rpm and my gpu (RTX 4070) never goes above 60 degrees @ 170 power draw. Case is fractal define r5.

[low yoke]

I upgraded from r5 3600 to 5800x3d and its good, it solved all my stuttering issues in gamma. Have 2nd hand 3080. I have 16:10 monitor (1920*1200) and I downscale from 1800p. I play at 60fps locked. CPU is undervolted using Kombo at lvl 3. It stays cool with big old Noctua cooler. 32gb ram cause its cheap (3600mhz) - for Gamma, this is very nice setup. My 3080 is heavily undervolted to 825mv and 1800mhz. So it went from 350w to 250w at max load, with cca 2% performance reduction, recommended 🙂

[cunning thistle]

nice, 16:10 is an underrated aspect ratio, fps locking definitely helps with the smoothness, less 0.1-1% lows

[gentle palm]

hey, does anyone know the fix? performance mode is already off

[storm shard]

what can i enable to make it more foggy?

[low yoke]

16:10 is superior to 16:9 - its a shame we went the 16:9 route - its just because of the consoles. When u get used to 16:10 u are doomed :X there are hardly and good monitors in this aspect ratio being made. The only quite ok one was Asus ProArt so I bought it, but it had so bad image, I stayed with my super old Samsung SyncMaster 2493hm :/

[earnest prairie]

weather settings turn down the fog distance

[cunning thistle]

I think I had a 16:10 syncmaster also! RIP

[half lake]

Are there solutions for reshades that negatively effect the UI? health/compass etc?

I have a custom config I really like for the rendered game but it makes tends to impart weird effects on my UI.

[cunning thistle]

that aug looks well oiled

insane lighting though

[manic sage]

Yeah its the gun being weird

Different guns have different quality meshes etc..

[cunning thistle]

ah ok, make sense

[wraith moth]

what is the config ?

[thick helm]

@mint owl I think I might be missing something, idk

(I don't know where to find capa's reshade)

[mint owl]

Did you delete the shader cache ?

Also
#╟🎑reshades message

[thick helm]

I had no shader folder in the anomaly folders

[mint owl]

So this is a reshade that has gone wrong ?

[thick helm]

technically this is hyperbole because I just swapped to a random reshade

since I didn't have capas

[mint owl]

Yeah, but what happened to this one ? x)

[thick helm]

idk

[mint owl]

It's the same ingame ?

[thick helm]

just went blue

I haven't been able to launch an actual game yet because it keeps crashing because of xml shenanigans

[mint owl]

What does the log says ?

[thick helm]

#🔨modded-gamma-support

[mint owl]

Did you try a DLTX HUD or something ?

[thick helm]

only aydins

[mint owl]

I have Aydin's HUD and nothing got destroyed, what are the mods you have added or disabled ?

If none, then I'm afraid a full reinstall will be mandatory

[thick helm]

guh

even when cherry picked ugp is still shafting me

[tawdry stone]

hello i have a question, im playing on dx9 and some of the assets that are to be loaded on reshade are stuck on 12 assets left to load, its on the top of my screen, its annoying, and i cant do any reshade changes because the list wont show up

[swift robin]

i am a bit new but what is the blue client u guys use and where ccan i install it

[earnest prairie]

tf is blue client

[gritty turtle]

The reshade home button menu

[swift robin]

this where can i install this

[thorn owl]

press Home on keyboard

[earnest prairie]

its default in gamma

[swift robin]

oke thx

[earnest prairie]

install extremely based capa’s reshade

[hardy grotto]

wat is beter bloom or blooming hdr

[half lake]

I saved a custom preset and now all the included presets are gone.

The preset selector is showing Gamma/overwrite/bin as the selected folder, do the standard included presets live somewhere else?

Edit: figured it out: Gamma/.Groks' Modpack Installer/G.A.M.M.A/modpack_patches/bin

[weary rivet]

My spring reshade using base Gamma and atmos with AtmosR 'cfg_load atmosr' in the console, needs reinline and filmicpass.

[manic sage]

Will try this out tonight, thank you capa

[hallow mirage]

preformence hit?

[dire ginkgo]

if i delete shaders cache does that mess anything up like my current reshade?

[alpine otter]

In launcher anomaly?

[dire ginkgo]

in the file explorer

[alpine otter]

Then I don't know

[dire ginkgo]

ok nw

[mortal shuttle]

no

[deft epoch]

random ass duty accidentally shot by me in the head and killed me lol

[dapper magnet]

Is gamma using "cfg_load atmos" by default? Just in case I want to switch back?

[weary rivet]

yep

[dapper magnet]

Thanks

[grizzled sedge]

what do u guys recommend for a performance friendly preset?

for context i have a R5 2600, a 1050 and 16 gbs of ram

[brazen matrix]

Hey guys, I have been messing aroung with "Gloss Factor" a lil bit and now I have white dots on grass etc. everytime I turn my headlight on. Can anyone help please?

[past shuttle]

r2_gloss_factor 0.23
r2_gloss_min 0.18

type that ingame in console. remember always make backups before you change anything.

[brazen matrix]

yeah that fixed it thanks 4 ur help!

[swift robin]

guys what is the location of reshade folder?

[alpine otter]

Anomaly bin

[swift robin]

Oke thanks

[dapper magnet]

Is this the default grass that comes with gamma?

[hexed prairie]

I think so

Just turn up grass density/ height to have something like that

[dapper magnet]

I gave the capa reshade a try, and it’s really nice but eats about 40 frames for me so I just can’t 😔

[undone arch]

how make aggresor reshade work ingame

[pearl peak]

i really like this. looks great and runs the same as it did before, thanks!

[mortal shuttle]

Try turning off GloomAO and MXAO, gave me back around 20-30 frames

[dapper magnet]

Neither of those seem to be part of this reshade
