[naive vessel]

Can someone help me figure out why qUint dof (ADOF in the reshade menu) does not focus the same way with the same settings in different presets?

[toxic mural]

I tried to fix that idk why not work

Check screenshot channel

I posted some shots of this mod

[vocal plover]

u there?

@toxic mural

[toxic mural]

Hey

Yea

@vocal plover ?

Hello

Anybody here know which one of these mods, when disabled break the graphics
• 188- Enhanced Shaders - KennShade
• 190- Screen Space Shaders 15.0 - Ascii1457
• 290- Atmospherics Shaders Weathers and Reshade - Hippobot

Last time I disabled them together, they kinda broke everything

Hi
Thanks for choosing my preset

Installation:

1- download and install reshade app
2- find anomaly launcher DX 11
3- check all effects
4- download my reshade preset
5- drop it on C/Anomaly/bin
6- at mo2 search for Grass Tweaks (mod number 289)
7- reinstall the mod and check the version of preset
8- replace the mod
1- run the game
10- in game change grass density to max and grass size to 0.8
11- go to MCM sss settings and change grass shadows to ultra
12- use HOME button on keyboard

14- good hunting STALKER

Big thanks to @naive vessel for his help

[lethal ledge]

hows your own performance running this preset?

[toxic mural]

10 FPS drop on 1080p with gtx 1650

Almost everything ultra

[lethal ledge]

alright cool

[hallow mirage]

what cpu u have and ram ?

whats your acg preformence

[sage elm]

for me I only get 10 fps in total when using the preset

[naive vessel]

What kind of potato are you running this on?

[sage elm]

me?

[naive vessel]

yeah

the reshade is heavy, but it shouldn't be that heavy

[sage elm]

3080 with ryzen 7 3800x

[naive vessel]

Well, that's no potato

[sage elm]

idk maybe I installed it wrong

[toxic mural]

12g ram i5 8400

[sage elm]

have you tried the reshade?

[naive vessel]

Yeah

[sage elm]

what fps were you getting?

[naive vessel]

I uploaded screenshots with it and stuff

locked 120 fps

[sage elm]

any chance you could run me through your settings?

[naive vessel]

In-game setting?

[sage elm]

ye

[naive vessel]

I'll send screenshots, give me a sec

[sage elm]

ok ty

[naive vessel]

also, do keep in mind I'm running this on a 7900 XTX and Ryzen 7 7800X3D

[toxic mural]

Okay finally I dropped my reshade

#1160671282799595611 message

[naive vessel]

faster pc than yours but not 12 times faster

[hallow mirage]

Avg fps ?

[toxic mural]

25

[hallow mirage]

Ah cause I have same specs 16 gb ram and get 45 - 55

[toxic mural]

If I go to grimwood or red forest it's gonna be 13

[naive vessel]

These are my settings @sage elm

[sage elm]

hmm, how much lower would you expect it to be? I copied your exact settings, and with the default reshade on(atmos.ini) I am sitting around 60-70 fps

as soon as I turn grass shadows to ultra in sss settings I drop to ~25

[naive vessel]

Well, my GPU is like 60% faster

[sage elm]

do you play in 1440?

[naive vessel]

yes

and my CPU is like way faster in gaming

[toxic mural]

Grass shadows only for making game looks better but bad FPS drop

[naive vessel]

because the monolith engine loves the 3d vcache

[placid lotus]

@toxic mural your shaders so bad bro

[sage elm]

hmm ya for example inside clear sky base in great swamps ~55-65 however when I leave ~70-80, the reshade without the grass shadows turned to ultra doesnt seem to really affect it

[toxic mural]

Thanks for your feedback

[lean nebula]

such is anomaly's optimization

[naive vessel]

Adjust grass density and get rid of grass shadows

[lean nebula]

many stalkers in one area does that

[sage elm]

ya im starting to wonder if its the stalkers pop affecting it rather than the actually graphics settings

[lean nebula]

well of course graphics play a part

in dead city inside the merc base for example i get around 50-60fps but when i'm in another area in the same map goes up to 90-120

also just depends on which direction you look in many cases

[sage elm]

are you running high-ish settings?

[lean nebula]

ye

not gamma tho but it's pretty much the same thing

[sage elm]

if you dont mind me asking, what reshade do you use?

[naive vessel]

@sage elm , @toxic mural 's spring with some modifications of my own

you can find it if you scroll up a bit

idk if my changes made it to his final version

[toxic mural]

I just deleted a good reshade by accident just right now 💀

[naive vessel]

@toxic mural di my watchdogs tonemap stuff make into your final version?

[toxic mural]

I just dropped that spring with same settings as before

But I did something good to summer version just right now and fuck I deleted this reshade

[sage elm]

So whats really weird about my fps is that I get around 90-100 fps in the merc base with all of them shooting at me in godmode, but I get 60-70 in clear sky base in great swamps, I truly do not understand this lmao

[sage elm]

truly unfortunate 😦

[naive vessel]

Weak CPU

if you monitor your gpu usage, you will see it tank i clear sky

[sage elm]

ohhhhh I see that, welp I guess cpu upgrade next lol, I really appreciate all the help @naive vessel , time to finally start my run 🙂

[alpine karma]

@toxic mural thank you for the preset my brother

[toxic mural]

Your welcome I hope enjoy and ...
Good hunting

[flat current]

Back in the day I used someone’s preset that saved some fps and looked better than the standard reshade that u use when playing gamma for the first time.
Does someone has something similar?

[swift robin]

brother, i downloaded the file named COBALT

what do i do? like where to i extract it to and make it work

[toxic mural]

Hi

#1160671282799595611 message

Check this

[swift robin]

thank you my good sir

:)

[toxic mural]

Your welcome

[swift robin]

if i have any issues, i will ask

[bright harness]

any good invictus reshades so i could actually see shit?

[bright harness]

o wow, is this one heavy on fps side?

[gaunt pawn]

In reshade is there a way to manipulate colors in different areas of the game, like the sky vs. the ground/grass areas?

[whole dust]

wow

[weak chasm]

Anyway to improve the look of Terrain and foliage?

[unkempt estuary]

Texture mods. There's lots on moddb and if you know how to do basic modding. Just making your own customised mod by combining other mods into one than you can create one mod with multiple textures. If you don't know how to do any of that stuff I recommend using GTR optimised on moddb and than using green vegetation HD on moddb for grass. And Aydin's spring or summer trees only.

Or you could give Frostys zone reality pack a go if you like. It's a pack he put together for people who don't want to make their own mod or mess with more than like 5 mods etc

[serene lichen]

Hey guys! I am like a newbie in modded stalker so can you please help me with making the game looks a little nicer? Like, what I need to do to install or configure reshade? I don't really want to sit and go deep into that.

[lean nebula]

does the game run well

?

[serene lichen]

Like for fps? I have a pretty decent PC but the game is at about 50-60 mostly

At 2k res

[lean nebula]

if you are willing to sacrifice around 10 fps you could try out capa's reshade

also, you have reshade installed already

comes with gamma

[serene lichen]

How can I try it?

[lean nebula]

#╟🎑reshades message

download the reinline.fx, scroll a bit down and download the .ini preset

[bold rain]

Wdym check the version of the preset? https://i.imgur.com/DbXlSav.png

[lean nebula]

put .ini file in your anomaly's bin folder and reinline.fx in

uhh

reshade-shaders in bin folder

[toxic mural]

For example if you wanna use fall version then you need use autumn
Or spring preset you need spring grass and trees version

[serene lichen]

Thanks

[toxic mural]

#1160671282799595611 message
Check here

[bold rain]

https://i.imgur.com/orBVcVz.png This is what my Anomaly bin looks like with COBALT at the top

[toxic mural]

No
You need open the folder and choose any presets you need

[bold rain]

And what drag the config out?

[toxic mural]

Yea

[bold rain]

ah

Thanks for the help

[toxic mural]

Your welcome

[static bay]

Should i put it in any folder?

Or just in reshade-shaders, sorry for dumb question

[lean nebula]

i'm actually not sure

but probably in shaders

(i haven't done this myself :D)

[toxic mural]

Drop on shaders folder

[static bay]

oh, i see, thanks

[lean nebula]

@static bay in mo2, look for mod "aydin's grass" right click and reinstall then select spring grass and trees

[static bay]

Can i somehow get rid of this ugly af film grain?

[bold rain]

My brother in christ you are being irradiated

[static bay]

oh, shit ;D

Im new , so i dont know all of features

Ye, i see that now

[bold rain]

IRL Radiation does the same thing to cameras so its cool to see

[static bay]

I guess i just have to get used to it

[bold rain]

Yea, just anytime you see it, go away

lmao

How do i reset my graphics settings, even though im on a 3080 ti i nuked my game to 10 fps

My in-game graphics all saved even when clicking reset in launcher

[lean nebula]

press restore default user.ltx in the launcer

or whatever it was

you will have to redo your key binds though

[bold rain]

Didn't change any thankfully

What are settings that nuke FPS? Should i change my graphics through the games settings or MCM settings

[lean nebula]

that's odd actually, there was another guy yesterday having a similar problem

grass settings are the ones that nukes fps, grass shadows especially

also, do not turn on anti-aliasing

[bold rain]

Uh

https://i.imgur.com/3dyMA6q.png

This is the sun

everything else is black

what

[lean nebula]

uhh

try cfg_load atmosr in console

[bold rain]

Worked

ty

But now theres a weird af sound

nvm

It was the music being all the way up

[viral birch]

Guys, which are the best solutions for antialiasing?
I play 4k, but still have those terrible edges

[weary rivet]

try 8k

[viral birch]

You mean nvidia upscaling?)

I think even my 3090 will die)

[weary rivet]

you can also change mip bias

[viral birch]

Move it down?

[weary rivet]

try changing it to -0.1 and -1

-0.1 will make it look more blocky and -1 will make it look sharper

[viral birch]

Which one?

[weary rivet]

r__tf_mipbias

try r__tf_mipbias -0.1 and then -1

could also do r__tf_mipbias 1 but that would make it really blocky

[viral birch]

With 1 autumn trees looks much better, no shimmering, but grass is really blocky)

[viral birch]

Thanks a lot! -0.1 is a good spot (-0.5 is default), helped little bit with trees shimmering

Which anti-aliasing u use in reshade? @weary rivet

[weary rivet]

none

[nova sandal]

guys anyone can tell what's causing this? because its kinda dark and I haven't touch anything in reshader

[torpid ore]

anyone know how i can make gamma more colourful ?

[left island]

Try using any of the included reshade presets and find the shaders that affect color/saturation. Be careful though. You might discover a new hobby 😉

[toxic mural]

Use the colorfulness effect and if you want it more professional, use the qUINT_ReGrade effect

qUINT best I see so far

[left island]

Looks like you got an incomplete reshade install somehow because those 4 red shaders shouldn't have failed to compile

[viral birch]

Guys, I have just realized that my game plays much smoothly with Ultrawide Game View (21x9) option on my 4k monitor, and it still has its crisp 4k look because of resolution 3840x1600. Even with those black stripes I want to give it a try

BUT I have this map problem
Should I install some kind of ultrawide mod?

Or GAMMA UI is not optimized for ultrawide?

[swift robin]

https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1041661742620618795 exists

[limber fable]

yeah i dont think ultrawide is supported, im not 1000% sure but i believe ive heard issues

[limber fable]

and theres this

[viral birch]

wow, thanks

[left island]

Curious what your GPU is. Playing at 1600p, right? Reshade on or off? I need answers!

Just to compare with my system lol

[viral birch]

3840x1600
GPU: 3090
Reshade ON

[left island]

Looks so crisp

[left island]

Thanks for the stats. I have a 3080 Ti. I think I'll try this on the 4k display as well knowing that a 3090 can get over 100 fps. Was capped to 60hz on my 1440p ultrawide because I'm using a crappy KVM switcher.

[fair root]

can you please share that reshade preset?

[ashen rune]

yo, there's a way to smooth tree edges with shaders?

[toxic mural]

With AA effects and sharpness effects

[viral birch]

you can lower map bias in the settings to your liking
lower bias - more blocky image, but tree edges looks better
I recommend 0.1, balanced
you can just type in console r__tf_mipbias 0.1
just in case, default is 0.5

[viral birch]

I can share it but its little bit tricky, and its not mine, I find it in Fabio.conte LateFall texture/weather mod
The most of the work with realistic lightning does one effect - Bloomy HDR
And it has its own tonemapper, the problems begin at night, because tonemapper is trying hard to make image brighter:)
So you will get this
#╟📸screenshots message

It means its better to turn it off at night, but it will be really dark

[fair root]

I see, thanks

[viral birch]

If you see that your image is too bright, I can share with your Fabio.Conte shader setting, they are much darker
But you need to backup your own from User.ltx

I am testing your reshade, its pretty cool
But I don't understand this effect "QUINT_motionvectors"
What does it do? Its draining fps but I don't understand its effect

[viral birch]

When I was looking for understanding what it QUINT_motionvectors I find sometthing called TFAA, where to get it?

[lavish lake]

for me motionvectors if top 1 reshade fps killer

it looks to me that it doesnt do anything except -15 to -20 fps

its like reshade in reshade fps killer

[viral birch]

But what does is meant to do?)

[weary rivet]

it does nothing by itself

[viral birch]

I have read that it helps somehow with antialising
So does it have any sense to be in this combination of effects? as I don't see TFAA for example

[slow star]

Motionvectors is used by tfaa. It estimates movement information using the depth map

It works in tandem with tfaa ( you must put motionvectors above tfaa) and it removes most of the ghosting sideproduct by tfaa

To use tfaa in gamma you need to follow step 8 of the mini reshade guide in the atmospherics page by hippo on moddb. It enables reshade to search some other subfolders not found otherwise

Once you do that, force reload all shaders, and try any reshade profile by phroZac. Activate TFAA and put quint_motionvectors above tfaa.

I think phrozac made some tuning adjustments to his tfaa and motionvector settings. It's magic. If you set up tfaa correctly it removes all shimmering from bushes and trees. Its the best AA. Idk how it looks at 60hz but at high refresh there's no much ghosting left. Especially when moving. It also kinda makes lasers realisitc at a distance, imo.

[viral birch]

@slow star wow, thank you for explanation! I will try it for sure

[slow star]

Np👍yeah make sure to try it! Once its setup it is really worth it, at least so you can see if it suits your needs!

[viral birch]

I am playing 4k) So the main reason not to use it could be performance issue)

[slow star]

Here's what Hippo wrote, if you do this, TFAA and maybe some other shaders will appear in your reshade list

[slow star]

I don't reaally see any kind of drop in FPS when I use TFAA+Motionvectors, at 2k and 4k, same kind of dips. I think it's 2~3FPS less and 1ms+ frametime. At 4k/5k DLDSR I do have a lot of input delay already, though!! Like 20 to 40ms. To take into account

In fact, for some reason, TFAA makes my game smoother. I don't have a GSYNC monitor and tfaa kind of smooths in the frames, compared to no TFAA/reshade, it's not motion blur, it looks like a half accidental version of AMD Freesync in terms of pacing

It's difficult to explain😂

[viral birch]

great, I was forced to turn off G-Sync on my monitor If I want to switch it to ultrawide

[slow star]

Oh, make sure to check out the GIRTH mod on ModDB for ultrawide compatibility

It fixes all the UI stuff, minimap, PDA, fonts, everything

you just put it at the end of your load order and done. unless your gamma install is super custom

[viral birch]

OH MY GUSH! @slow star
Its so crisp and edge free with both my favorite reshades
I am in shock)
I even can get back map bias up

its not ideal, i started to feel some gohsting and even "jelly" moving textures of the walls
but what a ff! its so no-edgy!!!

[slow star]

You got the TFAA working?! Nice!!!!

Yeah the jelly thing is real

But you can tweak out the TFAA and Motionvectors settings I think

With TFAA enabled I run mipbias -1 to -2

That reshade looks great

[viral birch]

I play LateFall mod, those leaves are really thin, so TFAA helps a lot
But what is also great that it influence weapon textures too
I couldn't do nothing with edges on the weapon

[slow star]

Oh yeah because it looks like you don't run any SSS Weapon DOF blur in your setup, right?

[viral birch]

Yeah, I still have it but on minimum

[modern nova]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qEiuq-9_z64 damn, this looks great

[viral birch]

Yep, its really cool, I wish to achive that with reshade, or with shader edits in user.ltx

[toxic mural]

I have a question how can I change this things?
I tried to change some of them but after any change they back to default

I mean
I can see change for 2 sec

[glass steppe]

So I am finally diving back in after uhhh
a while

Fresh install, new stalker, new vibes

What are some recommended reshades? Is Eden's reshade still viable?

[swift robin]

You can try those + search for Capa reshade in here

I personally use hunter 2.0 warm+

[slow star]

Dynamic tonemapper on mcm?

[gritty falcon]

Hi everyone how do I open the menu to select shaders ingame

[glass steppe]

"home" button by default

[gritty falcon]

thank you

[glass steppe]

if you don't have access to that, there's a guide (self plug baybee) to change the keybind outside of the game lol

[toxic mural]

Thanks buddy

[manic sage]

Too bad it doesn't use enhanced shaders

[left island]

Whatever tweaks I made, I completely forgot. This was nearly a year ago. I'm actualy reading all this to refresh my memory lol.

[slow star]

Hey man, love your presets! No worries😂

[teal frost]

Is someone know why I don't have screenshot beside my savegames when I use reshade?

[lime goblet]

looks really good, has anyone tried it with gamma yet?

would be a really nice addition for players who choose to remove reshade

[lean nebula]

probably not achievable since he doesn't use enhanced shaders and all that

ES is going to be removed when sss 18 comes out tho

[lime goblet]

yeah makes sense

[lean nebula]

hippo could maybe recreate that to some extent though

[modern nova]

that's why i came here to see if anyone tried lol

[mint owl]

Mine is deeply outdated, Capa's Reshade or Hippobot's Atmospherics (which was and still is default GAMMA I think?) are the way to go these days

Lars' reshade preset is also very good and gives a very specific mood to the game

[viral birch]

Man, the virus is detected in your folder

[manic sage]

I tried it without gamma and didn’t really see anything special with it. His videos looked better than what I got. I tried it on an anomaly 1.5.2 install per the install instructions.

Not sure if the videos are edited or not

[swift robin]

The virus called windows defender is a retarded program?

Cause everything that is in that zip are reshade presets, nothing more

[viral birch]

Ahahah) But I download other presets before, and didn't have defender alarm

[swift robin]

Again, It's defender's issue, not mine

[lime goblet]

probably a false positive like the gamma launcher

[spiral mulch]

guys I have a 5600x and a 6800xt and am currently playing 1080p, how do I make gamma look photorealistic?

this how mines looking

[slow star]

Try #1153770802819383346 message

Has a full guide and everything on the first pinned message

There's a bunch of other options but for learning, that one is good

[toxic mural]

I have a question
How Is RadiantGI effect work ?

[fiery chasm]

its doing a screenshot of your game. I dont know why but its because of Reshade. If you deactivate Reshade and save the game, there should be a normal screenshot.
The F12 Screenshot in Stalker does the same to me, i have to do screenshots with OBS.

[nova coral]

did you post this? looks amazing

[uneven schooner]

it really does

[shy knoll]

So i just wiped my shaders because my performance was ass, and now when i press the home button the shader menu doesn't pull up, any possible help?

[gaunt pawn]

Yes I did, thanks. The preset was based off Autumn Season Redux mod. So whenever I get a chance to share the preset, the game might not look the same. Just a disclaimer heh 🙂

[nova coral]

okay could you reply to me with a link when you get chance, cheers

[hybrid vale]

how do you use presets within base gamma and also can you reset to default atmospherics settings? I want to fuck around but have never touched my home key

[north sail]

Where do you get these?

[gaunt pawn]

with Autumn Season Redux (recommended for similar results).

forgot one 😄

[gaunt pawn]

here's the preset for anyone wanting to test it with Autumn Season Redux. Nothing fancy, and very very lightweight. enjoy! feedback appreciated to continue improving on it. 🙂

[viral birch]

Hi, so it should be good for LateFall yes?

Which shaders settings do u use? Standart Atmosr or Fabio.conte?

[bold rain]

Can someone share their graphics settings, (preferably someone on a 3080ti+)

[spiral mulch]

The visual guide says to look at the txt and disable whats written

I do not have anything past mod number 269

on the guide it says to disable 283 and 289

what shall I do?

I also dont have gamma weathers
edit: found it

I get shader compilation error

even after pasting the backup

[spiral mulch]

launching anomaly launcher by its exe works, launching anomaly launcher by MO2 doesnt, launching anomaly by its exe works, launching anomaly by MO2 doesnt

I reinstalled GAMMA and updated to latest version

dk whats wrong

[vocal plover]

ah, is there a mod we can download?

[slow star]

As for the numbers, he probably means the priority number in mo2. not mod names.

Shader compilation error is just delete your shader cache folder...

if you cant install that mod then i guess a simple improvement is to just reinstall aydin grass tweaks in spring mode and in the game console do each one of these

r__detail_height 0.8
r__detail_radius 150
vid_restart```

[spiral mulch]

thanks for the reply but I ended up reinstalling everything from ground up cause something got fucked up 😩

[slow star]

U didnt need to do that lol

It was just the shader_cache folder needed to be deleted to let it recompile the shaders

[slow star]

In any case, you can still try another option, like i said above, find aydin grass tweaks in your mo2 install, right click, reinstall, and select spring trees and spring grass.

Then, in game, enter the commands i said in the console, one by one. You sgould get the look that yo were looking for

That's extremely simple and you'll be happy with the result

[gaunt marsh]

Anyone have frosts reshade pack installed rn? Curious what it looks like vs atmosgamma.

[spiral mulch]

I tried everything tbh, including deleting the shader cache, nothing was working anymore

[spiral mulch]

alright, let me try the whole thing again and I'll update you

thanks so much for the effort

[slow star]

no worries man, sorry you couldnt get it to work. Same thing happened to me with other textures as I was learning how to use them.. Stalker works in weird ways sometimes..
In any case, the reinstalling Aydin and grass settings I told you about, are a very simple approach!

[spiral mulch]

It's not a bug, it's an Anomaly!

[spiral mulch]

also apparently, reinstalling everything made those settings show up, so I GUESS I'm good from now on

I hope so

[slow star]

Damn!!

Nice

[gaunt pawn]

Yes, this is the one I'm Running. I believe I may have atmos disabled. I'll have to double check later.

I swith back and forth anyways heh

[spiral mulch]

do you know by any chance if this #1153770802819383346 message is compatible with zone reality?

I could use some optimized high quality textures

[slow star]

Zone reality already includes that one!

[unkempt estuary]

inception

[spiral mulch]

oh nice, thanks

I have lots of aliasing despit me cranking AA up in the settings

any ideas to fix that?

[slow star]

Dont use AA!!

Leave it at off

Use TFAA

[spiral mulch]

why tho

[slow star]

Basically, the in-game engine AA in this game is BAD

So, we use other techniques

People use various ones from the Reshade menu

For example, some use FXAA + CMAA or SMAA

But a newer approach is TFAA

It's incredibly good, it has some cons, but you gotta test it for yourself

To make TFAA show in the list, you have to do a few things, here

Once you do that, reload your reshade settings you need to make it look like this

[spiral mulch]

even smaa in settings?

[slow star]

Yes, dont use any AA in the options

they're bad

Use the ones I told you

The ones in options are very FPS intensive, like they're gonna tank your FPS

[spiral mulch]

thanks so much, sorry to bother

[slow star]

Once you use reshade antialiasing you can't go back. Maybe TFAA y or SMAA+FXAA, both are good but it's taste

Otherwise upscaling to 2k/4k resolution but that's not something everyone can run

[spiral mulch]

how do I reload the reshade?

[slow star]

bottom button

[spiral mulch]

4k with a 6800xt is meh, 2k on a 1080p even worse, I'd rather AA right now

[spiral mulch]

YOOOOOO THANKS SO MUCH

THIS SHIT'S FIRE

fps actually dropped more than the one in settings tho lol

[slow star]

hmmm.. shouldn't be the case though!!! I only 3 or 4 fps less with TFAA enabled,
make sure to restart the game if you disabled any of the AA options in the game pause settings menu, and check again

[slow star]

I'm on the same boat. I don't like 4k. I prefer the pixel density and framerate of 2k (im on a 1440p screen, so 1k looks horrendous) + the smoothness of TFAA

[slow star]

Glad that it worked👍

[lean nebula]

i would play upscaled 4k but i'm playing a mod with pip scopes

so it's shit ads:ing

[slow star]

If you need a bump in sharpness after using TFAA,, try putting DELC_Sharp above them

And ALWAYS put quint_motionvectors right above TFAA, or you will get horrendous ghosting and smearing

[bold rain]

Can i get some help in here https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1043020993687474186

[spiral mulch]

How do I do that? I activate one before the other?

[slow star]

activate both and order them with dragging

[slow star]

like this pic

[spiral mulch]

those three at the bottom or top of the chain of effects?

I have them as you said at the bottom currently

[slow star]

No no

Put these at the very top of your list

Like drag them

But keep them in that order

[spiral mulch]

better?

[glass steppe]

Does anyone have a link to Capa's Reshade? Or a file download?

[slow star]

Yep!!

You have duplicated effects just in case want to tell you that those will hinder your performance.

Like twice mxao mxao and clarity clarity.

[spiral mulch]

yeah I just noticed that, dont know why lol

I'm unchecking them

[slow star]

Yep keep only one mxao and one clarity

And restart your game after because you were testing the xray own AA today

[slow star]

Do this search
has:file from:Capa

But select his proper username

[glass steppe]

king

[spiral mulch]

also for some reason the black screen before it actually runs anomaly last like triple the time it lasted before I reinstalled everything. Could it have anything to do with my settings?

[slow star]

Hmmm

Did you install any texture packs?

When you delete the shader cache folder, it takes like 2 minutes to compile everything.

[spiral mulch]

could it be that it does it everytime?

[slow star]

And if you install many high res texture mods, it does take longer, but the big one is deleting shader cache. Of course it has to be done if the guide of the texture pack says so

Not really

Shaders are compiled normally if the folder isnt there, AFAIK

[spiral mulch]

also for reasons now I have duplicated effects on the "home" menu

[gusty marlin]

how do i install a preset

[spiral mulch]

weird

[slow star]

Very weird that you have duped effects

[spiral mulch]

I think it's the "bin" folder

[slow star]

Maybe you should delete your reshade folders and download the one from Atmospherics Moddb file

It comes with like 10 presets and all the shaders we normally use default in gamma

May fix your duped shaders

[unkempt estuary]

i had this issue when i was messing with shaders a while ago. forgot what i did to cause it but i ended up deleting everything to do with shaders and update

[slow star]

There u go

[spiral mulch]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oCOSpHyUtWg according to this video, you do it by pasting a bin folder to your current bin folder, if I have understood correctly

[spiral mulch]

oh god

pls

not again

[gusty marlin]

thanks ill give it a watch

found a nice preset i wanna use

[unkempt estuary]

download and chuck in this folder

[slow star]

I'll check whats inside the Zone reality bin folder but if i had to take a guess, it pasted all the shaders you already had, possibly on different routes or different name/string name so now you have duplicates.

[spiral mulch]

oh no dont worry about that message

I was replying to sully

[slow star]

Oh okay

But still you probably have two mxao.fx files and etc

[gusty marlin]

thanks

[slow star]

So the preset finds two mxao and activated them both

[spiral mulch]

let me check, it'd be weird tho, cause it happened when you asked me to move the AA fx to the top

[slow star]

Yeah but thats a completely normal thing to do

Enter the reshade-shaders folder and take a picture

I wanna check

[spiral mulch]

there's many files, do I take multiple screenshots? It looks like some of them are duplicate tho, cause they are like:
Name.fx
Name2.fx
or
Name.fx
Name.fxh

[glass steppe]

where my tfaa settings

[spiral mulch]

"home" key to open the shaders menu

then type TFAA

[glass steppe]

Oh, my b, I know where it's supposed to be

It's just not there lol

[slow star]

No just a single screenie should do

[spiral mulch]

LMAO

[slow star]

You need to follow a pic i posted a little bit above to make it show up

[glass steppe]

I hath been abandoned by mine reshade

[unkempt estuary]

norfair gonna repeat himself again

[slow star]

Here #╟🎑reshades message

[glass steppe]

Listen, I am helping Norfair level up in the server

it's called teamwork

[unkempt estuary]

true

[slow star]

Hmm

Can you search the word MXAO and post a screenie

I wanna see if theres two immerse mxao files

[spiral mulch]

look at these two tho

[spiral mulch]

sure

[slow star]

Nah those are diff effects

I know them

[slow star]

Yeah two files found in different folders

So it finds them both and activates from the preset

[spiral mulch]

MO2 moment?

[slow star]

No. Reshade naming convention moment. I'll check the zone reality reshade folder give me some time I'm outsude rn

[spiral mulch]

thanks bro, don't worry, not in a hurry, it's a game

[slow star]

Easy fix though, we just need to choose between the Zone reality reshade folder or the one from default gamma (atmospherics moddb file)

[spiral mulch]

it's just a lil frustrating that it's so user unfriendly

[slow star]

If you wanna save some time choose one of them and backup yours somehwere else for now and test it out JUST from one of those places

[spiral mulch]

In fear of having to reinstall again, does it bother if we try again in another moment?

[slow star]

Yeah ikr but we make do with what we have right? I love stalker and its always quirkiness. I remember the days of Atmosfear and Absolute Nature people mixing stuff for different things i loved it

[slow star]

No problem. But its simply this:
Rename your reshade folder to like reshade-original.

Put the one from zone reality in your bin folder.

Done.

[spiral mulch]

this one?

[unkempt estuary]

i wanna take textures from atmosfear but i dunno if its possible. some pretty high quality shit in there

[spiral mulch]

wait no, the problem here is: they are in the same reshade folders but one is to the root of "reshade" while the other is in another folder inside the "reshade"

[ripe fossil]

anyone else having a very strong dithering effect of distant objects? Iam unsure if this is related to some graphics setting or if its coming from a reshade option

[spiral mulch]

I think the dude from the tutorial might have mistakenly placed them in a subfolder so now when you copy the bin folder from the reality mod to your anomaly bin folder, some effects are duplicated

[slow star]

yeah i just realized what happened , i will tell you in a little bit

it has to do with that

when we fixed the reshade settings to make TFAA appear, we made the "wrong" shaders appear (the duped ones) so you have to "unfix" it by putting back how the screenie guide was

[spiral mulch]

without recursivity you mean?

yes it was recursivity

GUYS DON'T ACTIVATE RECURSIVE SEARCH OF SHADERS LMAO

oh but without recursivity there's only FXAA and not TFAA or MotionVectors

I think I could move those effects to the root of the reshade folder then

so MO2 would see them

IDK if it's an appropriate fix but I did this

if you add recursivity it shows duplicate shaders, if you don't it doesnt show some of the shaders and have to manually add the path

that's what I figured

If you have any better ideas lemme know

[slow star]

BTW Luke, I think the way of installing Zone Reality, makes it so you have twice the amount of shaders (dupes) so that is why it was taking so long to start the game.

Try this. Rename your reshade-shaders folder or move it somewhere else in your computer for now.
Download Atmospherics from ModDB(it comes with gamma so no worries, we just need the file for the reshade folders it comes with)

And look at this gif, basically copy these folders to your anomaly folder

1 sec

Then, you can use recursive search, because you now won't have duped shaders

and finally TFAA will show up

I just did this and i don't have duplicated shaders. it's around 174 I think

Then you can simply copy any of the single file presets from Zone Reality and done, no need to copy the entire reshade folder

[spiral mulch]

aight, thanks, will do tomorrow maybe. I'm trying the game with the AA settings you said, it looks amazing and it's rock solid

[slow star]

Great

Im glad you got the aa to work

[spiral mulch]

for now I solved by adding the paths manually, but I will do like you say, which is much better

I fear that adding path manually could cause it to duplicate anyway

[slow star]

Nice

Well, if you have around 180 shaders, then it's fine. if you have like 300 it's gonna draw some FPS away, because they get stored in the memory

I use an option that is inside the reshade settings menu that says "Don't load disabled effects". That one improves fps a little, but then you can't toy around with all the disabled effects, gotta click the force load button

[spiral mulch]

I'll check that too then

I only have a 71hz monitor tho

[slow star]

TFAA is great

[spiral mulch]

so Vsync to 71hz is pretty easy

[slow star]

Hmm..

I wouildnt use vsync it has input lag, unless you dont notice it

[spiral mulch]

what in the actual fuck is this tho

[slow star]

That's a bug because the remodelled dogs have diff proportions i think

so that model is like a stock dog skelly rig using the chunky models

[toxic mural]

You need a new game

[slow star]

there's a mod in the modlist called new dogs or hd dogs or smth, maybe toggle it off

[spiral mulch]

I mean it's not CSGO, I can deal with it I guess... it avoids tearng

[slow star]

Yeah, true

this one is a good one though:

[spiral mulch]

I honestly always toggle Vsync on because I had some games like Metro or Dying Light having HUGE tearing on my monitor

[spiral mulch]

Do I have to look Enhanced Sync in the drivers?

[slow star]

you have amd right

[spiral mulch]

yep

[slow star]

Yeah its probably there. in the amd panel. i dont have amd so i dont really know

[spiral mulch]

I played those on a 3080 tho

[slow star]

for geforce its like an option you just toggle it in the panel

So my guess would be to activate the enhanced sync and disable vsync in game??

[spiral mulch]

let me try

[slow star]

Take it with a grain of salt as i havent used AMD settings panel in a looong time!

[spiral mulch]

no it's actually there

I was trying to add GAMMA as a game tho

so I could only toggle it there

[slow star]

Yeah

[spiral mulch]

wait this only works if I move the reshade folder right? or if I rename it too?

[slow star]

You need to move/rename/delete it so you can cleanly install the one from the Atmospherics Moddb files, as my gif showed. Because you need to get rid of your current reshade folder bc it has duplicated shaders

[spiral mulch]

so a rename is enough right?

[slow star]

Yeah

[spiral mulch]

just in case I can have a backup

[slow star]

Name it reshade-backup

Yep

That way the game won't see it

i'm obviously talking about this folder, inside anomaly/bin

[spiral mulch]

it gave me a fatal error

T.T

ok it might've been random

now it's working

[slow star]

But you put the folders like in the gif right?

[spiral mulch]

yep

copied the bin of the shader folders

[slow star]

right so it looks like this

[slow star]

Yep

make sure to have a ReShade.ini in your bin folder

[slow star]

Yep

[spiral mulch]

Now I just gotta understand which .exe to flag as "game" in the amd drivers

thanks so much homie

[slow star]

Well, open Mo2 for a sec

take a pic of the thingie on the left of the run button

[slow star]

no problem man i just want to help

i was lost at one point and got super confused so dont want others to feell te hsame way

[spiral mulch]

wish I was as patient as you are

[slow star]

so this right here, which one do you use

[spiral mulch]

directx11 avx

[slow star]

this one

[spiral mulch]

yeah that's what I figured, it wasn't working as it should've tho

[slow star]

Hmm

[spiral mulch]

flagged as game and turned amd enhanced sync on

yep still uncapped

[slow star]

hmm.. i found these two messages on this server

#╟🔰☢newbies-chat message

#╟🔰☢newbies-chat message

Interesting

[spiral mulch]

yes I have it on "off unless specified" in global settings

cause it was causing me problems in valorant

then when I want to toggle it on I just do it by a specific game

[slow star]

Weird, maybe it doesn't work on this game

Well hopefully your duped shaders issue got fixed

and TFAA shows up

[spiral mulch]

Yup

all working wonders

I thank you again, hope I can help you too one day

I think I'll switch Vsync back on and call it a day

im going to sleep

GN everyone

[slow star]

Goodnight and have fun

[gaunt pawn]

Holy coffee I think I've been using in game AA all this time. I'm gonna have to try TFAA. Thanks for the guide. You learn something new everyday lol

[slow star]

Yeah!! remember to put it like the screen with motionvectors on top of it

fxaa is optional obviously

just some static jaggies get removed

like wall edges and stuff like cables. because TFAA focuses on the moving things like grass and trees

[gaunt pawn]

Cool. Will do. can't wait to test this out

[toxic mural]

Damn
Finding best colours for autumn so hard

[daring narwhal]

u ever drop the reshade ?

[toxic mural]

Autumn version almost down I'm testing for make sure everything looks clean and good

[bold rain]

@slow star What TFAA Settings do you use or do you just turn it on

[bold rain]

also, do you use the in-game Anti-Aliasing as well as TFAA and FXAA?

[slow star]

i just turn it on like the pic with Motionvectors on top

[slow star]

No no, no in-game antialasing, I just use TFAA+ FXAA

like this on top of my reshade preset

[bold rain]

Gotcha

[bold rain]

What about in-game SMAA

[slow star]

Nope

If I have to use SMAA I use the reshade SMAA.fx

but for me TFAA+FXAA is enough

in-game AA is garbage on xray

[bold rain]

Word

[slow star]

remember the motionvector too

TFAA needs it

[bold rain]

I did the ** thing bc i didn't have TFAA and now im getting this https://i.imgur.com/se9H7Lb.png

[slow star]

No problem

Grok said that error is okay

As long as you can see the list of shaders, its okay, he said IIRC

[bold rain]

https://i.imgur.com/sRhd3tl.png

Just those 2 at top

and for some reason i have 2 motion vectors?

[bold rain]

https://i.imgur.com/qVHpGQv.png

idk why i have 2 of some

[slow star]

Ohhh you had the same issue as the other guy

No problem, lemme see

he fixed it like this
make your reshade sttings look like this
the part with the folder paths

After that, the duplicated names will dissappear and you can have TFAA

[bold rain]

Yeah

https://i.imgur.com/15shxbQ.png

Got it

[slow star]

Niceeee

[tawny chasm]

Can anyone tell me if there's anything I could do to stop these shadows from popping in?

Changing the lighting distance to 1.0 did not change it. Using the ATMOS Gamma reshade with a few tweaks

[lavish lake]

Check SSS settings in mcm

Could be shadow distance there or shadow cascade

[tawny chasm]

Oooohhh interesting I'll mess around with it thank you

[lavish lake]

I had long time ago kinda similar problem

Fixed it by playing with shadow cascade

Hope it works for ya

[tawny chasm]

Yea maxing them all out makes everything shaded from the start but im gonna assume it will potentially tank performance when im in a larger/more complicated area

But I screenshotted the default values so I'll run with it until I notice issues

Also i didnt intend for this to be in the Reshade channel, but I'm thankful for the quick and helpful answer 🫶

[spiral mulch]

hey guys how was RT for amd called in the reshade menu?

I think it's SSR

I don't have it anymore

[viral birch]

Which resolution do you play?

[toxic mural]

#1162331678526677083 message

[brittle kraken]

Any ideas on how to fix this? 3 pictures.

[austere raft]

Been messing around with some gloomy shiz, feel free

[swift robin]

any rtgi users who have some tips?

[viral birch]

@slow star it seems like you are using LateFall, which reshade do u use?
Or maybe you tweaked shaders for realistic image?

[slow star]

Hey man, nono im not using late fall. Im using aydin grass tweaks on autumn mode + Autumn Retexture Desaturated in modDB . Very simple and it looks good

[slow star]

I play in 3440x1440

[viral birch]

Oh, ok. Good combination

[slow star]

Im using my reshade presets right nowhttps://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1162285292070379530

The one called Breeze rn

[viral birch]

So you publish it, great! I will definitly try it
I like latefall very much, its ground textures, and this cold tint, sometimes I can even play without reshade
But Clear weather looks overbrighted most of the time, I always need to play with lumascale

Have you tried Dynavision? Is it worth it?

[slow star]

Yes latefall is beautiful for sure... the probem with the overbrightness in latefall i had to fix it by installing Dynavision (there is a thread for it on this server) and in the game MCM menu setting i go to dynamic tonemapper and disable it. Then i go to dynavision and enable it. Otherwise they fight each other

with the dynavision hotkey you can press it anytime you're playign and tune the brightness of the sun, the hemisphere, etc its great. Then you save it

I press the "save as global button" so i dont have to tune every hour at first

[slow star]

Thanks hope you like the reshades man

[viral birch]

Its sounds really handy

[slow star]

Yep, it takes a little bit of time because you have to stop playing to adjust the sun bright but it has sliders so its perfect

[viral birch]

I am doing it all the time via console and not playing ahahah))

[slow star]

Noo yeah console all the time got me mad

But with it you definetely can fix late falls super brightness

[viral birch]

so u just placed Autumn Retexture Desaturated below grass tweaks?

[slow star]

Yea i placed it anywhere at the bottom really but yep after grass tweaks

I dont know if im using grass tweaks in autumn or winter mode though, so maybe try both

It helps with some ground textures and other things that arent modified by golden autumn retextured desaturated

The rest is done by golden autumn retexture desaturated

[ripe fossil]

Can someone tell me if this dithering effect is normal? Iam not sure if I'm getting crazy.

Just wanna know if I see it everywhere now because I inspect the graphics more (and therefore are focused on it) or if its caused by some option that I can't find

[slow star]

It onyl happens with reshade ON?

Some reshade shaders use dithering and they have a little box to disable it

[ripe fossil]

I think I found it. It seems to come from sharpening with "iMMERSE sharpening" while the dithering effect seems to be in the game in general but it can get exaggerated by the sharpening and other effects.

Thanks for the suggestions

Using the AMD Fidelity sharpening significantly reduces the pixelation effect, using that for now 🙂

[slow star]

There is also on MCM menu > SSS > a grass shadow setting, i think that one also gave dithering if on "Low" mode but I'm not sure right now, might be worth to check out.

[swift robin]

Is this the default shader?

am i the only one who isn't understanding how to install zone reality textures?

[unkempt estuary]

whats the problem ? btw prob ask here https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1153770802819383346

[raw isle]

Is there a quick way to remove the autumn textures so the game is greener again?

[fringe patio]

appears to be

[lean nebula]

reinstall 289- aydin's grass and select spring trees and grass

[raw isle]

When you say reinstall does that mean check it in mod organizer?

[unkempt estuary]

right click to reinstall

[raw isle]

Thanks!

[north sail]

How do you add reshades?

[gaunt pawn]

I got this too after enabling TFAA option.

[bold rain]

IM using ADEGA and enabled TFAA getting this error https://i.imgur.com/XC7qYtY.png

I've reinstalled, multiple times, etc nothing fixes

This isn't an important error anyway

[bold rain]

oke

[flat lion]

hy guys, how i download and install reshade and presets ? anyone has any tutorial to send me please ? thx

[mortal shuttle]

it's already installed

if you're using gamma which i assume you are

[flat lion]

yes, i am

i downloaded a cinematic preset, how i can install this ?

i'm really new

[neat kite]

hello quick question how come the reshade isnt really changing anything for me in my game lol ill pull up the menus and tweak stuff in it and litterally nothing is happening

the effects are on so i really dont kno what the problem could be its a fresh install of gamma to

[slow star]

Drop the preset.ini into anomaly/bin folder and in-game press the reshade menu hotkey.

when you start the game it tells you what hotkey it is. Then just select the preset you want from the dropdown that appears at the top of the menu

You can have mutliple presets by the way they can be changed on the fly

[slow star]

Did you press the toggle hotkey?

[neat kite]

yea i fixed it all i had to do was restart

[slow star]

Ohh nice

[neat kite]

might have glitched or somethin

[slow star]

Yeah weird!!

[neat kite]

this is my first time back to gamma in so long i had abunch of reshades on my old playthrough

i forgot all of them tho

[slow star]

Dang

Well for some good ones theres phroZac, hunter, Capa, Oscore

Manfred neutral

Im making a bunch of weird cinematic ones for roleplaying

[neat kite]

@slow star this is what mine looks like currentyl

kinda grim

[slow star]

nice

[neat kite]

any suggestions ?

[slow star]

im currently making one to roleplay as Sin

[neat kite]

oooooooo

[slow star]

hmm let me see

yeah like this is it currently

Called phospor

weird one but I love it

[neat kite]

holy fuck

dude

jeezuz

[slow star]

this is "Wanderer"

[neat kite]

omg

bro

[slow star]

i'll post them on my thread #1162285292070379530 tomorrow if i can

like they aren't the normal beautiful ones but I like making weird ones. Next is one for duty

[neat kite]

bro holy shit ima check ur shit out tmmr

u got utube ?

[slow star]

Nope, I only posted one video for an older wip of a reshade but thats my thread ill post every preset there

[neat kite]

omg bro frfr i just followed the post

[slow star]

Can you take a screen of your reshade menu? lets see what we can do with it

[neat kite]

bet

[slow star]

like press windows+shift+s and it lets you do a pic

[neat kite]

ya ik

can u see ?

[slow star]

yep

lemme check

you need TFAA

[neat kite]

wass dat

[slow star]

Its the best antialasing but you need to "unhide" it, go to the settings tab and there's a little folder icon , this one
press the + and search the folder "TFAA"

theres another way of doing it with recursive search but some guys where having duplicated shaders so this is safer

idk if the folder was there but its basically inside shaders/TFAA

[neat kite]

got it

i added it

[slow star]

Nice, so now refresh the list

i think theres a button at the bottom of the home tab

then search for TFAA

drag it below Motionvectors and activate it

TFAA takes like 10 FPS but its really good imho

[neat kite]

im running game at 40

sadly

[slow star]

Hmm

Well test it at least

[neat kite]

wym by drag below motionvectors >

?

[slow star]

Did TFAA appear?

[neat kite]

yea

when i search for it

[slow star]

Okay so activate it and hold click on it and drag it on the list

put it as "3rd"

like if you were moving an icon on windows or smth

[neat kite]

ok its third now

[slow star]

like this

ofc i have it 4th but dont worry

[slow star]

Now that you have it active, the grass and trees should be smoother (shimmering)

some people notice it, others dont

[neat kite]

ok lemme see

this it now

[neat kite]

didnt take away any fps

[slow star]

Nice!

Yeah it should remove the annoying shimmer from the trees and stuff

[neat kite]

im running on manoply launcher

should i go on dxx11 for better fps ?

[slow star]

idk what's that

Anomaly you mean?

[neat kite]

yea my bad

auto correct

[slow star]

You should open the game from MO2 and use DX11, yep

use dx11 instead

[neat kite]

fr ?

[slow star]

dw abot the debug thingie

yea

DX11 and if your CPU is really good, DX11 AVX

[neat kite]

ok

[slow star]

like i7 i9 or ryzen 7 9

[neat kite]

i got i7

[slow star]

Rule of thumb for AVX or no AVX is = if your cpu is better than your gpu, go with avx, otherwise, no avx. but it depends

in any case you can test both

[neat kite]

do i need to download and other shaders to download ur presets ?

@slow star

[slow star]

No, you can just plop them in the bin folder

[neat kite]

omg thank youuuuuu

[slow star]

If something doesnt work, then you can use my folder, but it should be the same anyways

By the way, I'm going to improve the presets tomorrow, because seems like they look differently in summer seasons. But I think you're on autumn so its okay

Disable RadiantGI from my presets. That thing consumes like 15FPS, I'll remove it in the next update. Someone gave me a heads up

[slow star]

there is something weird with your ground, its green?

[neat kite]

idk what it is lol it looks cool

its the part of the map ig

in dark valley

[slow star]

Huh

Interesting

[neat kite]

just drag and drop into folder ??

[slow star]

Yeah the 4 files into anomaly/bin

[neat kite]

sweet

thansk bro

You shouldn't need to restart the game. Just pressing reload at the bottom in the reshade menu should work

By the way, make sure to check 0score's reshades too.

Inside his thread there is a google drive link, with a lot of folders for each season, choose one, and you just grab those .ini files and drop them in anomaly/bin like you did with my presets

[neat kite]

just checked his shit out o my god

[slow star]

Yeah he made some cleeeeeean stuff man

Have fun dude, gotta go

[neat kite]

thanks yo frfr helped me out today

[slow star]

Hey no worries!

Enjoy the game!!

🔥

[spiral mulch]

any good denoiser?

I have some noise on my pda, probably something to do with the 4 layers of AA

lol

mostly immerse AA and FXAA

[west stirrup]

I tried to use TFAA and I got that weird thing that objects wobble when I walk around them. Does anyone know how to fix this?

First image I'm standing still, second image I'm strafing to the right (notice the distortion of blocks I'm aiming at), in motion it looks like they wobble like a gel

[viral birch]

Unfortunately, its a side effect of TFAA
Have you applied any motion vector effects?

[west stirrup]

yes, it helped a lot. Without it I have it much worse and whole screen can distort

[viral birch]

yep... I also feel this wobbling effect, so I still didn't decide do I use TFAA and live with that, or don't use

[strange crescent]

I have the same issue, can`t enjoy the game while i´m notice the wooble effect

[slow star]

Looking at the 2nd picture, i can see that the wobble is way too high for tfaa.. seems abnormal. Cna you take a pic of your reshade menu, and the settings for tfaa?

[manic sage]

Because you're using quint motion vectors

Use DRME instead

[forest lagoon]

Whats the best Ill get the game to look on a 1080 with an i7-8700k?

[strange crescent]

Doesn´t change a lot, the effect is kinda the same

[manic sage]

Never had that issue on my end

[mortal shuttle]

place drme in the same spot as quint motionvectors

[manic sage]

Yeah this is correct i didn’t notice that he had it way down there

[strange crescent]

okay didn´t know that´s matter

[strange crescent]

it works thanks!

[mortal shuttle]

[toxic mural]

Hey guys
I'm looking for every shader effects for using
Some of them old effects and can't download with reshade app
Can someone send me a link for downloading every single shaders please?

[jade trellis]

im looking for phrozacs grim v2 and the one that comes with the retexture mod

[sharp patrol]

anyone know a good snow mod?

[toxic mural]

Project Inverno

[fierce lion]

Hey guys! Is this the right chat for shader issues?

[fierce lion]

Nice, well, I just have major stutter, plus shader "artifacts"

like 8-15fps at maximum

and I was wondering whether there is a thread for maximising fps

[swift robin]

hey, how do i install reshades?

[unkempt estuary]

download and put in here

[swift robin]

thx

[hybrid sapphire]

#╰⚡fps-optimisation

[novel drum]

hey sorry, is hippos now default ? do i have to tell the reshade program which folder to use ;s sry

[mortal shuttle]

Hippos is the default, yes. You do not need to do anything, if you've correctly installed gamma, reshade is already working as intended

[novel drum]

ok thank you very much

[fierce lion]

The game at this moment looks like this... Any way to fix the shaders, or my graphics card is too weak?

[toxic mural]

Use HOME button on keyboard
Then you can see some effects

Uncheck all

If not working

Go here https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/922555488665743391

[fierce lion]

funny thing: this also happens when I play vanilla Anomaly

[toxic mural]

Idk really

[fierce lion]

I tend to think it is becuase my graphics card cannot handle the graphics

it is a dedicated GPU

[toxic mural]

Maybe try delete shader cache

If not still working ask here https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/922555488665743391

Not gamma problem if you have also on anomaly but maybe they can help you

[fierce lion]

Looks like disabling the effects from main menu

actually worked

still, fps is crap, but I can handle it

[mortal shuttle]

brother are you running that on a calculator

[fierce lion]

nope, on laptop

[mortal shuttle]

[unkempt shore]

Bro saw the video . Its Zone Reality

[swift robin]

anyone know what the newest version of sss is?

[thorny vortex]

17.2 but 18 is coming soon

[swift robin]

ahh ok thanks

[manic sage]

Very very soon

[timid pond]

I saw it too, where can i find the Zone reality mod?

[unkempt estuary]

https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1153770802819383346

[timid pond]

Thank you!

[unkempt estuary]

no worries. you can find mods here https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1035807043933720576

[urban hatch]

avoid using reshade if you do 11 fps on a laptop, even with effects disabled it takes away a bit of performance reading the frame buffer
also playing in dx8 or 9 should give you more fps

[jade trellis]

How do i enter the shaders menu

when i press the home button it doesnt bring it up it brings up another terminal in the top left

[jade trellis]

what do i download?

[fierce lion]

I will try playing on dx9, although I saw from some videos from yt that dx8 is dark af, while dx9 is optimal

[unkempt estuary]

He was asking about putting people's reshaders he downloaded into his game

[urban hatch]

yeah try dx9 first, if the fps are not acceptable go for dx8 and edit the gamma slider in graphical options (if it's even possible in dx8, dunno )

[jade trellis]

how do i get the shaders menu???????????????????

[fierce lion]

Press HOME

[fierce lion]

God save GAMMA, for no one else can

[jade trellis]

this is what comes up when i press home

[fierce lion]

You need to be on the main menu

[jade trellis]

idk what that is

[fierce lion]

Press esc

To get to the game menu

Then once you are there, Press home

[mighty dome]

anyone know how to fix this?

[fierce lion]

....

I think you pressed ~

Not home

The one near esc button

Cause this should not appear

[jade trellis]

I have 60% keyboard its annoying

this is what i type when i press fn and esc `

shouldnt ` take me to the shader stuff?

[fierce lion]

Dont you have a home key

[jade trellis]

does it say home on it?

sorry im just confused

[fierce lion]

Yep

[jade trellis]

no i dont

oooohhhh

[fierce lion]

What kind of keyboard you have?!

[jade trellis]

i think i found it

1 sec

[jade trellis]

thankssss i found the key i have a razer mini keyboard

i had to press fn and this button }]

[fierce lion]

Oh wtf

This is a weird af keyboard

It's really unpractical, in my opinion

[fierce lion]

But at least you found it 🙂

[mighty dome]

can anyone help?

[craggy topaz]

are u trying dx8 or dx9

[mighty dome]

dx11

[craggy topaz]

also #🔨base-gamma-support

[mighty dome]

im using zone reality

[craggy topaz]

u using mod manager right

think u might have to bring it down to dx9 or dx10

completely forgot how i fixed mine

[mighty dome]

whys that?

[craggy topaz]

to be honest, no idea, but that's how i think i fixed mine

if you can't handle the game with shaders anyways, you shouldn't play dx11.

[mighty dome]

i can easily handle it

no problems, until I tried using zone reality

still shader comp failed, i think imma just delete the mod until something more stable shows up

[craggy topaz]

whats that

zone reality

[mighty dome]

its a retexture mod

[craggy topaz]

if you go into settings, does detail texture have a number next to it

[craggy topaz]

do you have any other mods alongside it

[mighty dome]

i turned off what the mod author wanted turned off

[craggy topaz]

weird idk then

[mighty dome]

yeah imma revert back, glad i made backups

[hexed lotus]

@mighty dome try this

!sss

[void depot]

@hexed lotus

1.) Go to your GAMMA\downloads folder and delete ScreenSpaceShaders_Updatex.x.zip (x.x. means version number, and yes delete them all if you have multiple of those zip files)

https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/screen-space-shaders/

2.) Download the mod file from moddb. DO NOT EXTRACT.
3.) Place it into your GAMMA\downloads folder.
4.) Run the GAMMA Launcher as ADMIN.
5.) Uncheck every box, but leave "Force zip extraction" box checked
6.) Click install / update G.A.M.M.A.

[mighty dome]

i got it fixed

@hexed lotus if you have performance mode on in reshade, turn it off. thats what i did

[cunning thunder]

Which reshade is good for medium spec pc

[swift robin]

anyone recommend some ways to make your game look good on vanilla?

[cinder pike]

Is there a list of reshades made by the community? Been looking for phrozacs grim reshade

[cobalt parrot]

it's installed with gamma by default

[cinder pike]

ah, well thats good then lol

[foggy drum]

not yet

hit the home key and it will open up the shader menu

should probably load into the game first though since it won't really change much in the menu

[cobalt parrot]

yeah should have phrased that better

it's installed by default, but you still need to enable it

[verbal hare]

hello guys im having trouble with shaders i think

color is missing

any ideas?

[slow star]

!shader

[void depot]

@slow star To clean your "Shader Cache", don't use the option in the Anomaly launcher.
Go in this folder: Anomaly\appdata, you'll find a folder called shaders_cache, delete this folder and launch the game normally from MO2, using your preferred DX.

[verbal hare]

ok

[slow star]

it's gonna take longer to start 1st time after deleting the folder, dw

[sturdy leaf]

I have same issue will also try

[slow star]

If it doesn't work, then

!blackscreen

[void depot]

@slow star Follow this: #╭📖faq message

[verbal hare]

ugh i got another crash now

[west stirrup]

Didn't see your message yesterday, here they are

[west stirrup]

When I took that screenshot I had these shaders

[digital elm]

Hey, I have the same issue and shader-cache deletion doesnt help.

UI and stuff looks good, just ingame graphics are dark as the night

[copper ermine]

guys i dont know if this is the place to ask about it but, does someone has the hippo FILM2 reshade ini file? i lost it when i updated gamma to the new version

[dim bough]

Same here... If anyone has managed to fix this, I'm keen to know how

[past shuttle]

turn off dynamic tonemapper in MO2

delete shaders_cache folder afterwards

if you have just updated without the new hotfix

or manually installed SSS 18 and atmospheric

[dim bough]

Just tried turning it off and deleting the shaders_cache folder but unfornunately no luck

[past shuttle]

ingame via console (^) cfg_load atmos or atmosr

[digital elm]

Same

probably will need to do a fresh install. 😦

[dim bough]

Didn't help either 😦

[hexed lotus]

What are the difference.?

[harsh estuary]

same, no change for me. Game is still pitch black, can't even tell I have a flashlight on

[swift robin]

yep, same done fresh reinstall and game is pitch black

[past shuttle]

atmos is for without reshade using and atmosr with reshade. R standing for reshade.

sorry guys, maybe you have to do a fresh install.

[swift robin]

@past shuttle just fresh reinstall the game, disable dynamic tonemapper, and delete shader cache manually, and still doesnt work

[past shuttle]

hm did you put in the console command?

[swift robin]

which one? gonna try it now
