mine is same. i just have 2 more seperators for other mods

[rare trench]

this

[unkempt estuary]

whats the screen space shaders update ? did it download SSS like that?

it doesnt matter as long as that is SSS newest haha

your mo2 is doing some magic

[rare trench]

maybe it added new files?

[unkempt estuary]

i dunno. just use that one then

[rare trench]

@rare trench also if you want better texture models for npcs i reccommend this https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1143233268595044493

[barren raven]

W set up ngl

[unkempt estuary]

quality not quantity.

[barren raven]

[unkempt estuary]

the technicolour can be pretty nice if you like changing the feel of the game @barren raven

try a few of those

[barren raven]

?

technicolour?

[unkempt estuary]

theyre in the shader menu default

[barren raven]

reshade?

ah okay

ill check it out

[unkempt estuary]

the default reshade grim is pre cool too

take off a few off those shaders on it

and its

[barren raven]

😎

@unkempt estuary

[unkempt estuary]

looks nice. those arent my settings tho ?

thats still aydins grass

[barren raven]

yeah

i was confused lmao

how do i config the options?

in MO?

[unkempt estuary]

did you only pick summer trees ?

[barren raven]

yes

[unkempt estuary]

like here

[barren raven]

it was in the option

[unkempt estuary]

hmm maybe load order

[rare trench]

we done eveything right

[barren raven]

update reshade idk lmao

[rare trench]

im on rtx 3060

[barren raven]

im on a Rtx 3060 OC 12gb

Anomaly/Gamma does use CPU a bit i think

[rare trench]

[unkempt estuary]

like ur game looks so bad i cant even tell what tress or grass u have lol

[rare trench]

i messed

how to revert all

hahahaha

[unkempt estuary]

wdym ?

[rare trench]

back to default settings

i think something is wrong in the procesds of making the graphics better

[unkempt estuary]

like ?

[barren raven]

@unkempt estuary

[rare trench]

not with yours,

[unkempt estuary]

looks nice man

[barren raven]

more stalker type vibes

i like it

[unkempt estuary]

did u add a technicolour?

[unkempt estuary]

if you update gamma youre gonna have to do that demonized and SSS again i believe

[rare trench]

yea maybe tomorrow, now i want to grind my tanks and jets

[barren raven]

messing with it rn

[rare trench]

but thanks for the help man

[unkempt estuary]

no worries. hope you can get it fixed man.

[unkempt estuary]

noice

[barren raven]

foggy in game rn so looks a bit dull

but AA on grass isn't as much noticeable now

[unkempt estuary]

yeh those AA shaders help a tonne

this grass is a little more fuzzy than aydins but i prefer the colour and performance of it. plus there is more grass in places there wasnt before

just the tiniest little bit of fuzziness compared tho. hardly noticeable

[barren raven]

yeah

[unkempt estuary]

you using fxaa cmaa smaa and normal anti aliasing ?

looks good but just wondering if ugot all of those on coss that one tree looks a little fuzzy

its probably normal tho. it still happens

[unkempt estuary]

this setting was

[barren raven]

agreed

[barren raven]

@unkempt estuary want this preset?

[unkempt estuary]

sure. @barren raven

[barren raven]

alr

give me like 5 minutes

[unkempt estuary]

its all good tho. im pretty good at messing with the shader menu

[barren raven]

rip lmao i forgot what i had shit set to

trying to set it back to that rn because it looks better

[unkempt estuary]

looks like a technicolour with ambient occlusion shaders and aa shaders

[barren raven]

as close as i could get LMAO

[unkempt estuary]

looks a little better than the other one i think

[barren raven]

tweaked a bit more

[unkempt estuary]

nah this one

[barren raven]

alr

[unkempt estuary]

up to you tho

[barren raven]

i turned on levels

looks really nice now

final one lmao

[unkempt estuary]

if you like it thats all that matters

[barren raven]

yeah

[unkempt estuary]

looks goood

[barren raven]

Yep

there

[unkempt estuary]

turn on the other AA shaders

[barren raven]

Alr

[unkempt estuary]

cmaa and normal anti aliasing

[barren raven]

also i made a radio mod can u check if it works? Worked on mine so it would prob work on yours

[unkempt estuary]

[barren raven]

i posted it in #╙🖇mods-making-discussion

[unkempt estuary]

https://tenor.com/view/im-a-little-bit-scared-ttthefineprinttt-im-kinda-terrified-im-slightly-frightened-i-feel-a-bit-of-fear-gif-25902342

im not playing right now but ill give it a go

[barren raven]

Alright

If ur radio fucks up which i doubt it will i got a backup so we all good

[hexed prairie]

theres a defog setting in the reshade I think

[rare trench]

this fixed mine

[rare trench]

now i know which one to adjust 🫡

[unkempt estuary]

your game looks good now ?

[golden night]

For some reason every time I launch the game it says Sharpen Contrast failed to compile, and I want to turn it on in the reshade menu but it doesnt let me

[rare trench]

only when on DL DSR 2.25x

monitor is 1080p

and turning MIP BIAS down to half helps to reduce the amount of far texture details

[hardy ridge]

Feelin good

[remote heart]

how do you configure it?

[hardy grotto]

teh turkc sementary god damn

looks so good

[rare trench]

its better now when you see a dead zombo in duty base

[hardy ridge]

To make sure the reshade is set up correctly takes a little work, I use the AtmosFILM preset, I added ADOF quint for the truck cemetery shot. Additionally, there's some stuff you need to tweak in settings for reshade to do with file/folder access, but I'm not an expert on that part.

[calm path]

what file does r2_sun_lumscale_hemi get stored?

[hardy ridge]

not sure

Haven't dabbled with that

Oh wait, there's a screenshots channel

I'm blind

💀

[surreal acorn]

Does anyone know how to fix / re-find the preset folder for shaders with Reshade?. I save and put my name in the atmos shade and now I dont find the rest of the presets shades anymore

[hardy ridge]

It's definitely not in overwrite

[surreal acorn]

do you know where is the folder?

[hardy ridge]

I can find it for you

Give me a minute

C:\GAMMA\mods\Atmospherics_GAMMA_\bin

[hardy ridge]

Here

I usually use the preset AtmosFILM by the way, if you're looking for one to use, but otherwise r++ and AtmosGAMMA are good options too

[surreal acorn]

ty. Im trying to find the folder searching in the 300 folders inside mods xd

[hardy ridge]

You can just type it in

[hardy ridge]

Type this into the bar

And you should be all good

@surreal acorn

[surreal acorn]

maybe I did something wrong cause I dont find the folder....I search in explorer and find this with the tag "atm"

thats the folder mods inside gamma

[hardy ridge]

iNTERESTING

Woops

Interesting

Ummm, oh, I have a specific mod pack installed

I was under the impression it was defaulted

Let's see.....

I can't seem to find the original

Perhaps it was in the Anomaly bin folder?

Indeed it is

C:\Anomaly\bin

@surreal acorn

Try there?

[surreal acorn]

ok I try

[surreal acorn]

Its there!!! thanks! you are the best...

[hardy ridge]

All good man

One more thing, remember to go to reshade settings and do the following

Clear out all of these you don't need by clicking the minus, then rename the end of shaders\ to **

By the end it should look like this

Should spice up your game graphically from what I've heard

It seemed to work for me

That's for sure

[surreal acorn]

you mean erase qUINT and PD80?

[surreal acorn]

this?

[hardy ridge]

Yeah, so hit the minus on the right of those two, then add ** at the end of the last search path

Then you should be good

Sorry for the slow response

[sharp patrol]

any snow reshades?

[hardy ridge]

There is a snow mod, but no reshade

[sharp patrol]

does the mod effect current gameplay just wondering?

[hardy ridge]

No

All texture

Does make things more visible though in the snow

[sharp patrol]

That’s alright bro cheers

Do you know where I can find the mod?

[hardy ridge]

I forgot what it's called, but I can have a look

Pretty sure it's this one

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/inverno-fx

I think you have to disable a few things in GAMMA, or enable them, but it should work fine. As far as I'm aware they're compatible, it's just a texture and effects rework

@sharp patrol

[sharp patrol]

Cheers mate

[hardy ridge]

All good

[icy citrus]

how did u get it to look like that, can u share the reshade config?

[hardy ridge]

Literally the reshade config is just AtmosFILM, the default settings

Only thing I added was ADOFQuint, with a minor touch on vertical adjustment

That's it

[wanton ridge]

what kind of touch did you do in the ADOFQuint?

nevermind ATMOSFilm goes all black lol

[hardy ridge]

Weird

[wanton ridge]

True

[hardy ridge]

Have you got your reshades configured correctly?

[wanton ridge]

All fine yes

was working before pc shutdown

LeL

Using Atmos r++

all fine

[misty cargo]

Hello what reshades people usually use? I one of the called gamma plus added hdr and few small tweaks. But wander what others use

[analog nimbus]

i use "phrozac zone" 😄

[misty cargo]

is it in there by default?

[lean nebula]

yes

[acoustic drum]

atmosr, but usually i just go in and tweak something until i like how it looks

[misty cargo]

heres what I got with phrozac zone with tweaks

[violet abyss]

where do u get it

[misty cargo]

it there by default

press home button and select from drop down menu

[wanton ridge]

Can u share the tweaks?

[misty cargo]

+HDR +luma sharpen or whatever it called. mainly that I tweaked sharpen to my liking though

[swift robin]

Hey, since new gamma update updated the reshade program, this helps now. Though, quint is still not working after replacement for me

[twin osprey]

And this is the specific error it's listing

[mortal shuttle]

There may be a patch available for it on github

[crimson shuttle]

should i use aa or smaa? which one looks better for gamma

[lean nebula]

most looks the same, not sure what you mean by just aa, but cmaa in reshade is in my experience the best

[wanton ridge]

smaa is really heavy be carefull

[unkempt estuary]

is that because youre using performance mode or even with performance off?

[swift flax]

how can I get ride of the black squares on the corners without turning reshade off?

[wind crater]

k idk if anyone needs to hear this but changing from atmosR+ to atmosR just gave me 20 fps back I do not remember it being that heavy pre update but i guess it doesnmt matter much

[granite dragon]

https://discordapp.com/channels/912320241713958912/912827116427554877/1152353473816444978

[twin osprey]

[surreal acorn]

The phrozac-acid reshade has this weird black borders. The rest of the reshades looks great. Someone know why?

[mortal shuttle]

probably a corrupted reshade effect that isn't updated for 5.9.2

click through each of them 'til you find the culprit

[hollow gyro]

I am getting a similar thing with just sides of my screen, using Capas autumn reshade.

[swift robin]

Hello. how do i get the Rain Puddles back? after the 091 update there are missing. did anyone notice that too?

[unkempt estuary]

0.91 jenked everything

imma be the one to say it lol

[pastel igloo]

ngl im not fw the brown

how do i go back to the green

[thorny vortex]

reinstall aydins grass tweaks and pick from the selection

[raw mountain]

Go to reshade options (home button)
Go to Glamarye_fast_effects
Disable "Enable fake GI effects..."

[pastel igloo]

to reinstall do i have to delete it from the mods folder and download it my self

[raw mountain]

no

[pastel igloo]

how

[raw mountain]

just search for Grass Tweaks mods on MO2

Right Click on it

reinstall -> Next -> Pick your season -> Replace

[pastel igloo]

i love you man

[barren hazel]

what are shader settings that are "must haves" tick on for you guys?

[lean nebula]

some aa maybe

lightroom

and ambient light

not much more really

[barren hazel]

thanks, have been messing around with the shaders, game looks better than most modern titles now

[glacial spear]

does anyone knows where SSS 18 was taken from? it isn't on moddb https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/screen-space-shaders

[dense sonnet]

how do you enable anti aliasing for a given reshade preset?

[wanton ridge]

Cursor.fx failed to compile T.T

[trim hearth]

It's 17.2:

[glacial spear]

ops I did not see the other field, allright

[wanton ridge]

Can someone share and tell me what this does?

[misty cargo]

its 10am but looks like late evening -_-

much better I think

[misty cargo]

love how it looks now

[rugged citrus]

AtmosR++

[misty cargo]

I made my own with tweaking a bit of existent one, looks just like I wanted it to. removed that huge orange shade all over the place

[pastel igloo]

yeah the orange is not it

looks like the zone was covered in cheeto dust

[trail hollow]

undergrand

abovegrand

[acoustic drum]

pretty hole

[trail hollow]

🤑

[formal shuttle]

Does anyone feel like the game is too dark after the latest update? Anyone got a reshade to fix it if you have the same issue?

[daring narwhal]

Can u tell me step by step how to install this reshade i fucked it up

[trail hollow]

nah it was very bright before i got a reshade thingy and customized it

i like it darker and grimier. fits with the stalker atmosphere

[wild tartan]

What did you change good sir. Thats exactly what i want !!

[swift robin]

@safe kelp will you update your reshade for the newest patch on gamma?

[safe kelp]

[swift robin]

is that a yes or no, then?

[spare parcel]

its both

[white shadow]

Any ideas why my nights are super bright?

Light settings are 1.0 gamma and 1.0 colour saturation

I also have dark nights turned on in settings

[fickle imp]

find the night tab in the zone tab of the settings i think

[white shadow]

Yeah, I’ve got night set to Dark nights. Lighting seems normal, but the moon just brightens up everything to a really high degree.

[fickle imp]

ohh idk then, sorry ://

[white shadow]

You’re good. Thanks for getting to me though 🙂

[fickle imp]

yea no worries man 👍👍

[trail hollow]

ganja misses his cat

[knotty wren]

hey hey any recommended settings to make stalker look awesome on my 4090?

[vocal basin]

hey guys i installed the update but after i noticed my reshade binds werent working anymore, anybody know how I can go about like... resetting it?

i imagine its something prolly really easily changable

\when i search it all i can find is a post from about a year ago

lol

[gentle moon]

Its look very good and real! Can you share your presets?

[dense sonnet]

crank that AA

[knotty wren]

in main settings or in shaders through the home menu?

lol and a totally unrelated question, how do i reset the shaders when i mess everything up? just revert to default or are they different from Gamma default settings?

[barren hazel]

So water puddles are disabled by default now?

[dense sonnet]

either. you may like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1qFw_4pgE8A

[barren hazel]

rain falling on the enemies body looks odd

[open pulsar]

maybe u can share it with us? 🙂

[misty cargo]

@open pulsar @gentle moon @wild tartan I will try to find how to share it as I did quite a few adjustments to one of the presets to change shadows/hdr/sharpnes/color plaet etc

if someone knows where reshade files are stored I could share the one I edited then

[swift robin]

anomaly>bin>reshade-shaders>shaders, I guess

[misty cargo]

I dont see presets in there

yes default shaders are there but cannot find presets in there

[swift robin]

presets are in anomaly>bin

[misty cargo]

ooh there we go

[open pulsar]

NEW RESHADE NEW RESHADE

[misty cargo]

eeem, let me check in game which one was it as I dont remember the name and will drop the preset file here

noooo theres update available, Im afraid to update

[swift robin]

update the reshade program?

[misty cargo]

no I mean gamma update

small one but Im afraid that it will brick my game with some error again 😄

oh well let me drop the reshade first and then will try to update

[cloud island]

Immersion broken

[misty cargo]

wtf my reshade settings did not save -_-

hmm regrade did saved but hdr and sharpend did not. nwm added them back one moment will share it

[misty cargo]

no that one was not saved. how do I actually properly save preset when I edited it?

just did all the changes again

oh found it, heres the preset and few pics

[open pulsar]

there are masters of reshade here?
i wanna do clean look atmosphere, but always something wrong i didnt know which slider change, what i do wrong 😢

[late meadow]

Hey @safe kelp, haven't seen you lately, i definitely love your hunter 2.0 reshade back in .9 but, after the update the reshade felt off with a bluish and darker hue overall, do I any customization needed or something, as I'm not keen enough to mess with resade? And sorry for the ping

[gentle moon]

Many thanks! You are our new hero =]

[crimson shuttle]

is there any must use reshade settings that you guys could recomend me

[open pulsar]

my

[unkempt estuary]

@crimson shuttle these 2

[crimson shuttle]

do i have to add these into a notepad?

[unkempt estuary]

@crimson shuttle The ones i linked are default in hippobot atmospherics. you just gotta reinstall for them to show up in shader menu

and to save peoples shader settings you put the downloaded file into either anomaly bin or hippobot atmospherics bin in gamma mods @crimson shuttle

[lean nebula]

eww eden's

might have changed since but it was horrible last time

[jovial hull]

these look awesome, what settings are you using?

[misty cargo]

few extra tweaks

looks so dam nrealistic at least on my screen xD

[misty cargo]

Beautiful

[acoustic drum]

looking for a good inverno reshade, anyone have any suggestions for presets or tweaks?

[hardy ridge]

AtmosFILM with the addition of ADOFquint. I leave it all mostly untouched otherwise. Grass plays a big role, I'll screenshot that setting for you later

[hardy ridge]

Use some of phrozac's reshades, not sure what you might need to tweak, but they should work well with Inverno.

I forgot which one specifically that I normally use, I'll have to check later

whats the best shader for looks but still playable i have a good pc

[jovial hull]

Thank you man appreciate it

[coral geyser]

A good reshade to use with an HDR oled monitor?

[hardy ridge]

Thanks for reminding me to screenshot my grass settings 'later.' Keep in mind that you might need to lower this for performance though

[jovial hull]

Alright, thank you so much man

[amber owl]

best reshade mod for gamma? just got the game and trying to make it look as good as possible

[lost stag]

#╟🎑reshades message Hunter reshade

[uneven schooner]

Looks good, what preset are you using?

[bright pewter]

Majestic Weathers + Unknown Reshade and 4K Upscaled Texture Overhaul.

The most realistic fire a video game has seen.

[amber owl]

just got them they look 10/10

[misty cargo]

switched to summer and made few add tweaks to my reshade preset

[primal hound]

Imagine you are speaking to a baby, how do I go about downloading and installing reshaped and textures to make my game look like this?

[harsh pike]

What are like the top 3 reshades? I’m struggling to pick. Also what’s the reshade in base gamma called?

[manic sage]

Hey guys what popular reshades are you guys using nowadays besides stock reshade presets included in gamma

[swift robin]

shader compilation failed(crashed my game when i pulled out a mp412
the new ar is also blue

[tender wasp]

@manic sage a tweaked Capa's but that one's based on your work anyway, if i remember correctly?!

[manic sage]

joint work

good to know

[tender wasp]

Kudos to both of you! And many thanks

[random mirage]

I'm using Capas as well with some tweak work to it, never thought stalker could look so good!

[swift robin]

wth do i do

[lyric loom]

Hey bud, what anti-aliasing settings are you using? My game looks really crispy; you're does not and looks REALLY nice 😦

[pliant birch]

#🔨base-gamma-support many people had the same problem apparently

[hardy ridge]

Legend, and thanks for sharing your preset, I'm definitely going to use this

[lyric loom]

i'm looking at ModDB and is says Majestic Weathers is outdated? I remember using it last time I played last year or the year before and it was amazing

[unkempt estuary]

I'll have to check what my reshade settings were when I get home. Sorry

But it was base phrozac grim with a few tweaks

[daring narwhal]

Where did u get the 4k texture overhaul

[lyric loom]

No problem mate, I just can't find a release of Majestic Weather's that says is still compatible with the current state of the game lol

[ashen plaza]

i would also like to know where u got those textures from

[unkempt estuary]

no idea man. i use Hippobots atmospheric weathers and shaders. never used that one

[lyric loom]

Ah crap my bad, I got confused (I haven't slept in 48 hours lmao)

[ashen plaza]

@unkempt estuary are u home yet ? i would love to get ur antialiasing settings

[unkempt estuary]

Yeh sorry trying to figure out how to share my exact tweaks. Not sure if sharing the actual config setting I changed will be the original or my tweak.

[ashen plaza]

its simple

just tell us ur antialiasing settings on anomaly

and the ones on reshade

[unkempt estuary]

Mine have tweaked settings

So each reshade has been tweaked a little

I dont use any of the base visual setting anti aliasing

sorry its phrozac poison v4 also not grim @lyric loom

lemme checkt the config file

[ashen plaza]

does anybody use 4k upscalled textures?

[unkempt estuary]

not sure what that guy meant by 4k upscale. never heard or seen of anyhting like that

[ashen plaza]

it exists

[unkempt estuary]

i know global texture rework

GTR

yeh i know its a technology. but i dont know of a modpack that has 4k textures or upscaling techniques

ok so it does save my tweaks. chuck that in your shader configs and you will have my tweaks

for phrozac poison v4

[ashen plaza]

kinda blurry no?

[unkempt estuary]

or you can just rename so you can keep original too

that reshade tweak is meant for beefy PCs using 2560-1440 or 4k

its still good on 1080p tho

[ashen plaza]

i got a beefy pc

4070ti and 7800x3d

[unkempt estuary]

are you still on 1080p tho?

[ashen plaza]

yeah

i play tarkov

tarkov cannot handle 2k

or 4k

well

[unkempt estuary]

yeh i know i gotta change my resolution constanly playing different games

[ashen plaza]

yeah thats the shit ididnt wanna deal with

so

it looks nice

at close area

but on far

grass

it looks aids

[unkempt estuary]

i agree lol the far trees look bad too

[ashen plaza]

thats so bad man

[unkempt estuary]

really good on 4k tho as you can see hah

[ashen plaza]

ja

just range looks gaga

[unkempt estuary]

its really hard finding a good reshade at 1080p

if im on 1080p i basically just use fxaa and AO shaders

nothing else.

@ashen plaza if you look up a bit that guy hunlight posted what looks like a pre decent reshade. i didnt try it ho

[unkempt estuary]

that looks ok

is that mine?

or a different one ?

[ashen plaza]

its urs with bit more vibrance

[lyric loom]

So my R5 5600 and RX6600 might not do so well with it is what you're saying lmao

[unkempt estuary]

No it can handle it. @lyric loom it just looks best on high resolution. I guess you could say that about all reshaders haha

[unkempt estuary]

Ah oky

Plus it could do with some more work to make distance look nicer. I'm not a master tho

[ashen plaza]

u just have to deactive

dept of field within glamarye

[lyric loom]

Do you use any texture/weather mods also? @unkempt estuary

[ashen plaza]

it gets rid of the broken distance shit

[unkempt estuary]

Just hippobot reinstalled with couple of his optionals

[unkempt estuary]

Ah oky lemme see

[unkempt estuary]

Textures I use a bark mob for trees. And GTR optimised

Bark mod *

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/bark-rework-beta

Oh and I might add those new textures for trucks etc

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/zil-131retexture

[lyric loom]

I agree that the trees could do with a little more sprucing up

[unkempt estuary]

Holy FK yes dude @ashen plaza

[ashen plaza]

yeah

[unkempt estuary]

You'll like that bark mod than

[ashen plaza]

i consider depth of field as super aids to look at

[unkempt estuary]

1080P GLAMARY DOF ON

1080P OFF

massive difference

[lyric loom]

Looks incredibly better

[unkempt estuary]

even more noticeable in game

didnt even notice it had one on in there

[lyric loom]

Can't wait to try out the reshade you sent after my Dr's appointment tomorrow, so until then, goodnight 🤘

[unkempt estuary]

do what sense said tho. turn off that DOF in gmary eye

[ashen plaza]

i found the sweat spot

for 1080p

[unkempt estuary]

wanna update the file and share it ?

[unkempt estuary]

looks nice

[ashen plaza]

i just gotta fix my fps now

i fucked them somehow with my settings before.

[unkempt estuary]

theres a balance adding sharpen too it too i just dont wanna fk with it lol

thats with adaptive sharpen but its a little too much

[lyric loom]

I like both of those, is the top one without reshade??

[ashen plaza]

the effect it self said 1.0 is the sweatspot

so i did 1.0

[unkempt estuary]

nah just 2 differentweather

[ashen plaza]

and it looks great

[lyric loom]

Ohhh gotcha, yeah it looks really good, that's how I want my game to look

Grim when the weather is grim but with a dash of hope when the sun shines

[ashen plaza]

okay i fixed my fps

lol

it was just because i was using direct 11 avx

i should be using direct 11 non avx

[lyric loom]

Doesn't AVX supposed to improve performance?

[ashen plaza]

for people with bad gpu and good cpu yes

[lyric loom]

Ohhh

[unkempt estuary]

yours could be good for ppl who like lots of colour in their game. ill leave vibrance out of my one

[ashen plaza]

but not for people with great GPU and great CPU

that shit fucks the fps

[lyric loom]

Well TIL not to use AVX

[ashen plaza]

just try it

make save file

look at the fps

and load the exact same save file without avx

[misty cargo]

Could u share your reshade preset? Im trying to make smth realistic style not too green or not too blue as lots of shaders doing and your screens looks like natural colors without any green or blue or whatever grading

[lyric loom]

Oh, both of ya'll send your reshade presets again and @me so I can find them instantly on my PC when I get home tomorrow, I really gotta sleep I'm running on fumes lmao

Goodnight

[unkempt estuary]

ok so thats with no adaptive sharpen tweaks

this one is with a mild tweak

[ashen plaza]

non looks worse no?

[unkempt estuary]

night dude. i might work on it some more and share when its perfect

im asking on your opinon sensei

@misty cargo you want current or when i finish playing around ?

i thought second looked ncer no ?

[ashen plaza]

its hard to tell

but personally

i go for full on no blur

[unkempt estuary]

its very mild sharpen

[lyric loom]

Just realised you two can just DM the file too if that's easier lol send me what it is now as its a perfect base to work from

[ashen plaza]

all clear sharpen

i mean his world and my world a lot different

he likes more realistic dark look

i like colorful look

[unkempt estuary]

thats just 1.0 default adaptive sharpen

[ashen plaza]

and then he has 2k and i have 1080p

thats to much

i would go for .600

try that

[unkempt estuary]

these are 1080 shots tho

[ashen plaza]

hm

[unkempt estuary]

i play 1080 most the time tbh

0.6

i think thats it

[ashen plaza]

wait

[unkempt estuary]

actually 0.5

[ashen plaza]

ur using the wrong sharpening

[ashen plaza]

?

[unkempt estuary]

im using adaptive sharpen shader. there is another i think

[ashen plaza]

are u sing the build in sharpening within glamarye ?

use the one withing glamarye

[misty cargo]

If u mean sharpen tweks then it can be now or whenever u want to Im at work rn so just ping me when u drop it

[ashen plaza]

dont use a aditional one

[ashen plaza]

yeah not that one bud

[unkempt estuary]

no im only using one @ashen plaza

oh what one ?

[ashen plaza]

glamarye fast effects

has build in sharpening

[unkempt estuary]

OMEGALUL

[unkempt estuary]

https://tenor.com/view/jim-carrey-stupid-stupid-dumb-and-dumber-smacking-self-gif-5362094

[ashen plaza]

sharpening stacker 1.0

[misty cargo]

I always use luma sharpen on top too xD

[unkempt estuary]

ye i dunno adaptive does some other sharpening technique

its not the same look

[misty cargo]

Btw are u using summer grass?

[unkempt estuary]

green vegetation. not aydins

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/green-vegetation-hd

[ashen plaza]

spring grass is the way

[misty cargo]

Oh so its not default mod then? As it looks much better than gammas grass, bushes are all lime green color

[misty cargo]

Im using spring now bushes are terrible so damn bright xD

[unkempt estuary]

spring is for that fantasy feel. i like it but prefer more realistic oclours

colours*

[misty cargo]

Saaame

How do u install that one, like untick the gamma grass mod and install this one?

[ashen plaza]

he doesnt know that im schizophrenic

[unkempt estuary]

yeh just untick aydins and install that

[misty cargo]

Oh I see u also use bark and texture mod

[unkempt estuary]

yes sir

[misty cargo]

Those are just easy install too or smth else needs to be turned off in gamma?

[unkempt estuary]

nah thats simple as install and turn on

no conflicts

[misty cargo]

And drop them just under the grass for example in the order

[ashen plaza]

wait

i use gtr grnd only atm

[ashen plaza]

what should i get to improve my visuals

[unkempt estuary]

this my load order if you want it. mines safe

[unkempt estuary]

like original GTR with only ground textures?

[ashen plaza]

yea

[unkempt estuary]

you deleted all the other textures?

[ashen plaza]

that what i have atm

no

[misty cargo]

Strangely looks like u have so much less mods than I do xDD

[ashen plaza]

here

[misty cargo]

Or ure hiding them somehow

[unkempt estuary]

if so you can just install GTR optmised on mo2. that mod deleted old GTR ground textures

[ashen plaza]

this is what i have

i have pretty much just added gtr

[unkempt estuary]

i got 418.

enabled

[misty cargo]

Yeah I see that just your list u dropped looks so small xD

[ashen plaza]

oh yeah i got

ADEGA Aswell

[unkempt estuary]

im confused what GTR you have sensei

its important

[misty cargo]

Anyway ping me with reshade when ure done, will have to install some pretty mods today after work and drop that reshade then

[unkempt estuary]

because if you installed old GTR that installed directly into anomaly folde

where as optmised is mo2

@misty cargo im gonna have a break if you wanna continue tweaking it haha

[misty cargo]

Im at work rn xD will get home only in like 9h or so

[unkempt estuary]

ah oky

[ashen plaza]

to be fair

i dont really know what i got

i just know

I downloaded those and put em in my shit

[unkempt estuary]

i cant see that

is you ground green and brown and mossy ?

did you install GTR in mo2 or anomaly folder?

[ashen plaza]

i installed it in Mo2

[unkempt estuary]

show concrete

[ashen plaza]

and its GTR Grnd only

[unkempt estuary]

road

[ashen plaza]

sec

[unkempt estuary]

cos grounds on old GTR are all green and mossy. looks so nice

[ashen plaza]

here

[unkempt estuary]

yeh thats just normal roads.

not GTR

i dont wanna download 2.4 GB just to show the gtr roads haha

[ashen plaza]

i dunno

[unkempt estuary]

so you didnt install the thing i linked either ?

GTR optimised ?

[ashen plaza]

no

[unkempt estuary]

what did you install for ground textures?

that google thing i couldnt even see

[ashen plaza]

GTR grnd only

lol

[unkempt estuary]

where the heck is that lol ?

its not on moddb

[ashen plaza]

i cant really tell u tbh

I got baby sitted

@shell monolith is the magic man

[unkempt estuary]

im gonna download the file for you so you can actually have the real GTR grounds haha

[ashen plaza]

not me

[unkempt estuary]

if thats what you want?

warning original GTR is very intensive

[ashen plaza]

how intensive

like does it trickshot ur fps?

[unkempt estuary]

like will make your game stutter crazy

[ashen plaza]

bodhi

[unkempt estuary]

[ashen plaza]

[unkempt estuary]

https://tenor.com/view/i-have-come-jesus-has-come-come-gif-26598279

[ashen plaza]

u got a link to the grass? i can try it

[unkempt estuary]

gonna zoom all over map and test ur reshade haha

[unkempt estuary]

here @ashen plaza

Wonder how good those new trucks will look. I might try that soon. The screen reminded me

[ashen plaza]

w

[unkempt estuary]

Ok I think that's enough spam screens lol

Last haha

[ashen plaza]

looks good

[ashen plaza]

where is that bush from?

[unkempt estuary]

Grimwood

New map

[ashen plaza]

huh

where is that

[unkempt estuary]

Grimwood is located between Army Warehouses and Dead City, has transition routes to Army Warehouses, Dead City, Red Forest

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/promzone-level

3 new maps

[ashen plaza]

gamma has this?

[unkempt estuary]

nah but theyre compatible. most ppl playing gamma who know about them use them now

theyre very well done maps

[ashen plaza]

why does gamma not have it?

[unkempt estuary]

not sure. youd have to ask one of the modders

maybe cos theyre so new

[ashen plaza]

Could ve

But it wont have stas spawns righ

[misty cargo]

Guys u doin some magic here. To conclud. Textures+ trucks + new grass + your reshade and it will be ok? Oh and disable grass from gamma

[unkempt estuary]

if you mean is the bark, GTR optimised, green vegetation safe ? yes. trucks i assume so. i havent added yet @misty cargo

[halcyon mortar]

Hello mate ! Your game reshade looks awesome! Any chance we can get a link to download the preset ?

[ashen plaza]

[unkempt estuary]

@halcyon mortar that particular screen shot is @ashen plaza

[halcyon mortar]

And this one too ?

[unkempt estuary]

credits to @ashen plaza

same reshade yes @halcyon mortar

[ashen plaza]

The name

Hahahaha

[unkempt estuary]

bootyholestweaks

[halcyon mortar]

Sweet ! Cheers!

[unkempt estuary]

[ashen plaza]

@halcyon mortar dont forget to set antialisiang to off on view settings and put smaa on very high

[misty cargo]

Yeah those ones, dont forget to drop me your reshade whenever u guys finish your magic xD

[ashen plaza]

Its done

[unkempt estuary]

senseis is done yeh

[misty cargo]

Oh its the one above

[ashen plaza]

He just posted it

[unkempt estuary]

im still gonna tweak mine a bit more

[halcyon mortar]

Right ! Will do !

[misty cargo]

Great. And ya good to know about those settings wont smaa very high eat fps out?

[ashen plaza]

Just test it

[unkempt estuary]

surprisingly it wasnt that bad @misty cargo

[halcyon mortar]

Do I need to type any console commands for gloss factors or anything?

[ashen plaza]

Medium gives me less fps the very high

[misty cargo]

Will check as with my ass of cpu and big resolution Im already having 40-50 fps in some places

[ashen plaza]

Ugh

Whats ur setup

[misty cargo]

And to be fair my cpu is not thaaat bad neither thaat old

[unkempt estuary]

best test. go to bandit base

[misty cargo]

Its ryzen 3600 and rtx 3080

[ashen plaza]

Lol true

Oh

[misty cargo]

But resolution of 3440 1440 ruins it xD

[ashen plaza]

Avx might be dogshit for u

Just test it at bandit base

[misty cargo]

What is avx even ?

[halcyon mortar]

Yesterday I got 27 FPS average on rostock with rtx 4090 and ryzen 5800x so I don't think your PC is the problem. It's Xray engine

[misty cargo]

Ooh good to know I was right about my cpu being fine

[ashen plaza]

Dont really no , but it seems to do magic for pcs with bad gpu and good cpu

Know*

For me it halfs my fps

[unkempt estuary]

https://quoramarketing.com/how-to-know-or-check-if-cpu-supports-avx-instructions/

[halcyon mortar]

I'm also running it at 2560x1440 and still getting lower FPS than you lol 😆

[unkempt estuary]

this will tell you if you should run avx or not

[ashen plaza]

@halcyon mortar try running without avx

[misty cargo]

Oh nice gonna check it

[ashen plaza]

I have 140 fps at bandit camp with 4070ti and 7800x3d

With no avx

[halcyon mortar]

I tested it yesterday and seen no difference in FPS with and without avx on the dx11 exe. Running no AVX applies reshade to the menu and UI elements tho .

[unkempt estuary]

gimme your set up @ashen plaza

[ashen plaza]

If i set avx to on my fps go down to 48

[misty cargo]

Says amd zen 2 supports avx

[ashen plaza]

For example

My friend has a 7800x3d aswell but a 2070 super and his game runs way better with avx on

[misty cargo]

Will try to test in rostok as coz of npc amount getting 45-49 fps on average in there so easy to see if avx gives smth

[unkempt estuary]

apparently i shouldnt be using it but i have

[ashen plaza]

[misty cargo]

Cant wait to get back home and make my game even more beautiful

And potentially even increase fps xD

I thought of buying 5800x3D processor sooner for stalker but seems to be not worth it so not gonna rush xD

[ashen plaza]

Its worth as hell for tarkov

3d cache are meta for cpu intense games

[misty cargo]

Tarkov sucks ass xD. Anyway guys dont u think our chat is out of place for reshade chat?

[unkempt estuary]

Yeh maybe haha

It drifts sometimes it's ok haha

[misty cargo]

We can go to general offtopic for random stuff or continue here about reshade

I also hope will be able to fix one nasty sound glitch I got yesterday

Hopefully its just one mod I activated

#1124300758033125446 here check vid I dropped

[unkempt estuary]

I dunno if I even notice a difference in fps @ashen plaza

[misty cargo]

Its all over the place xD

[simple minnow]

reshade

[unkempt estuary]

Huh ? Now that's off topic lol

[misty cargo]

[halcyon mortar]

Can you send us a few screens of your graphics settings? I've got pretty much everything turn on to highest settings except grass density and grass distance. Grass shadows is ON and AA / SMAA Is both off. Getting around 60FPS in most areas depending on weather. Often goes down to 30-40 tho.

[misty cargo]

Actually would be nice to see settings of people who have 140 fps

[unkempt estuary]

Yeh I'm here now with avx and I'm actually not lagging now

No avx* sorry

[misty cargo]

So its better without avx for u?

[unkempt estuary]

Better without it

Before I was getting like 30-40 fps with stutters and spike drops

Now it's steady 70

[misty cargo]

Theres also a mod to activate to remove stutters in mo2

[unkempt estuary]

Yeh I use that always

First thing I activate in updating haha

[misty cargo]

Ahahah might turn it on too then hve u done tweaks to cfg file too or just turned on

[unkempt estuary]

some weird shit going on with menu tho

[ashen plaza]

@unkempt estuary its akward, like i said , my friend gets shit fps with it off and he has the same cpu and i get great fps with it off.

[ashen plaza]

try avx changing first

[ashen plaza]

so off does the magic for u aswell

lol

[misty cargo]

Thats normal woth some of reshade settings to see last/ next location in the background

[ashen plaza]

go to bandit camp and then save ur game , and then look at the fps numbers ur getting, and then swap to avx off.

[unkempt estuary]

yeh haha

[unkempt estuary]

ah ok

[halcyon mortar]

I tried with / without AVX in Yantar and Wild Territory and had same FPS with and without... made no difference at all

[ashen plaza]

yeah thats weird Af

i cant really tell u why the experiences are so god damn different for everyone

have u tried deleting ur shader cache?

[halcyon mortar]

AVX is only being changed from using the different EXE file right?
I haven't deleted shaders cache between changing AVX exes no...

[ashen plaza]

yeeah

try deleting it

maybe thats what cucks ur frames

[halcyon mortar]

Should I delete shaders every time I start the game ?

[ashen plaza]

nah

just try it now

and then when ur fps seem fucked

[halcyon mortar]

Right. Will do.

[misty cargo]

Oh forgot to ask how do I actually turn off avx is it in anomaly launcher or smth ? Or in mo2 I should choose diff launcher

[ashen plaza]

u can just swap it in mo2 launcher

@halcyon mortar what are u grass settings

[halcyon mortar]

Distance 190 , Density is at about 80% shadows on

[ashen plaza]

distance is way to high man

i would put that shit to 110

[halcyon mortar]

Yeah I assumed i might have set these a bit high. Usually have distance at 140 and density at 70% or so. Will make some changes and see how it goes .

[ashen plaza]

i could send u my user.tx

if u want

that would just copy my settings

[halcyon mortar]

Send it over I'll give it a go

[ashen plaza]

it will copy my bindings aswell.

so keep that inmind.

[halcyon mortar]

Yeah thats fine I run default anyway

[ashen plaza]

u sprint with X?

are u okay?

[halcyon mortar]

Hahah. It's only Tap to sprint so I don't care really

[ashen plaza]

somebody help this man

i actually fell in lvoe with that shader

even night time looks very beautiful

[misty cargo]

Let me know if u guys find any good way to increase fps other than avx gonna test them all today

[ashen plaza]

ja

[glacial spear]

what can be the cause of this aggressive ao that pops up around weapon and hands when I get near surfaces?

[lean nebula]

that's exp right?

[glacial spear]

yes

[ashen plaza]

eh

actor shadows

that are broken

i think

@unkempt estuary imma try ur grass now

oh yeah

it looks better

but my trees are fucked now

well that sucks , the grass mod also fucks with the bushes, the bushes look bad on that grass mod , i rather stick to aydins , its just overall better.

[misty cargo]

Whats wrong with the trees? I want that new grass and bushes as aydins bushes are a big bright mess

[ashen plaza]

those trees are from aydin

u can have the trees from aydin and the grass from the other mod

but it will brick ur bushes

i iwlll show u .

[unkempt estuary]

yeh dont use aydins with it

[ashen plaza]

i mean

u sorta can

and its nice with aydins

[unkempt estuary]

you can but it looks bad

[ashen plaza]

actually

no it doesnt

i will show

regular

aydin plus green grass

[unkempt estuary]

btw just found really nice option in shaders

cinematic dof safe mode

[ashen plaza]

that does ?

[unkempt estuary]

fk knows but it made my shit look way better lol

[ashen plaza]

[unkempt estuary]

made it way clearer got rid of a lot of anti aliasing

[ashen plaza]

where can i find that

[unkempt estuary]

in Glamry eye

glamary*

ofc again haha

that shader seriously has so much haha

[ashen plaza]

it looks good

yo btw

fuck that grass mod

[unkempt estuary]

i think they both just better by themselves. aydin alone or vice versa but its all preference

[ashen plaza]

it even ruins other smaller trees
