[ocean nexus]

yes, i noticed. 😂

[ocean nexus]

I had to press pinned messages, i figured it out thanks. I think i know how to install it. MO2 is a part of anomaly though is it not?

oh no, but gamma doesn't have an executable,hmm

[rapid magnet]

MO2 = Mod Organizer 2

Executables that GAMMA uses to run

The pins of this channel will help too I guess

[ocean nexus]

So it doesn't matter what i select in the launcher if i launch one of these manually.

The mod isn't loading in MO2

ooh i see its an installer

[rapid magnet]

Not really sure how else to help.. Everything is there and simple to follow

[ocean nexus]

yes yes, thank you. you helped well.

ok reshade is already installed with the executables it seems, but it's not active in game. i don't want to overwrite something, should i reinstall it?

[rapid magnet]

The ones i foud were too dark.

but it's not active in game

Not really sure how you managed to disable reshade.. Reinstalling won't cause issues.. It's just an overlay program

[sullen sorrel]

why i dont hale a lot of effects like others. I install from reshade site and check all marks

[rapid magnet]

[sullen sorrel]

I have folders in "shaders", its fine? Or need to be everything in files like fx/fxh
I have 855 files in bin

[rapid magnet]

I didn't right click my bin..

Just play the game and see if the preset you are using works.. Looking if it's the same as others won't really help with anything.. Many people have many different versions of reshade and other shader effects

[fathom vine]

I will never do the big game quests without a rocket launcher or a grenade launcher ever again.

[white inlet]

How is that related to reshades?

[fathom vine]

wrong chat by mistake

[rotund gull]

What reshades are everyone using? What is your favourite?

[rapid magnet]

Clarity and sharpening

[tight zinc]

Post-nut clarity being the best version

[wary yacht]

Kind of off topic but it's the closest channel I can find. Wondering what people's preferences are on a few things.
Rotten Life 3.0 and Misery-like Grass and Grounds has a somewhat unified look, while Diolator's Textures with Terrain Textures Redone and CCON/Sickhowls Grass/Panceride Grass has a closer to vanilla look.
What's your favourite grass mod out of the four? Have you tried mixing and matching? Do you prefer the more grimy style of the first set or the more vanilla look of the second?

[rapid magnet]

Heavily personal preference when it comes to textures.. Many say trash looks the best.. And some say the best looks trash.. Pick your own that you enjoy, not what others enjoy..

Also, 3 of the mods you mentioned are outdated and at least 2 are badly optimized.. And those aren’t opinions

[wary yacht]

Oh okay, could you let me know which are the outdated/unoptimized ones?

[potent wren]

What should I do about all these failed to compile parts?

[potent wren]

could I just delete them all and try reinstalling, or are these just files that remain uncompiled no matter what

[wary yacht]

Sickhowl and Misery were either uploaded or updated this year. Panceride is probably out of date but I heard someone mention it being what they liked to use so I included it in the list. Diolater's Textures, Rotten Life, CCON, and Terrain Textures Redone are almost universally used aren't they? Which would be the outdated mods in question?

[jovial orchid]

Would anyone happen to know why after I added reshade to my game it became super dark and the resolution became super low,

[hoary bridge]

help

does any one know ho to fix this ?

[rapid magnet]

AtmosR doesn’t use that shader so either don’t worry about it, update reshade, don’t use a 5yr old preset, or google the name and download it

[potent wren]

What should I do about so many failed to compile files

[rapid magnet]

either don’t worry about it, update reshade, don’t use a 5yr old preset, or google the name and download it

[prisma stratus]

Do I need a different version of ReShade? I am running 6.7.3 and I'm missing the multiLUT that I see several reshades using. Even when I reinstall Reshade onto my DX11 exe using a specific reshade as a config, it doesn't seem to be adding this LUT thing

[regal oak]

https://youtube.com/shorts/3YoXWhLRt_w?si=B5fv7iGQ-SEXuS8V Greetings friends, could someone tell me what graphics mod the owner of this video uses for his Stalker Gamma? It's simply AWESOME! I want it!

[twin sun]

Delete that.

[icy crypt]

You can look the description in his long videos. It has all the mods he uses + his reshade.

[regal oak]

TY bro!

[valid kindle]

Bro I got PRZ 2.0 and RELOOK for Stalker 2 working with GAMMA.

Look at the moonlight😭 sorry for phone quality, only way to represent oled, a screenshot looks real different

Here's a screenshot, unfortunately on a normal IPS monitor the brightness and colors aren't the same, my phone doesn't really give a true accurate idea either, this looks insane though.

[devout kraken]

Before and After

[deft dawn]

hey, so looking for a spring mod, something like inverno but spring 😄

[boreal copper]

what texuters pack you have ? i want it xd

[vapid birch]

if you're trying to activate atmos_summer/winter
you have to activate atmos_neutral first, then it unlocks it.
Happened to me, idk why it works tho.

[rapid magnet]

?

atmos_neutral is a config file, not a reshade ini.. They are completely different to what that person was talking about

[rapid magnet]

?

[rapid magnet]

Not related to reshade at all

[molten marsh]

Could there be something wrong with my ReShade installation?
This is my normal map (DisplayDepth). I notice that my hands and weapons doesn't seem to be affected by Global Illumination like shaders..

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6xOSzYLeJB0&t=2s

[scenic cloud]

Turned that shit into cruelty squad

[molten marsh]

I've made sure to correct the preprocessor definitions first. It was the reversed buffer for me (1 to 0). Both normal and depth map then appeared to be properly working then.
Still does not work for the hands/weapons.
I'm playing with HDR on, as well as the modded MT exes. Few more trial and errors for me I guess...

Here's a screenshot with the GI's debug view.
(this is now on HDR disabled)

You can see the gun/hands appears flat.

[rapid magnet]

Some reshade versions have it pre-installed, others you need to do it manually, but there's an addon for reshade which does not change the HUD in any way.. This makes it so that you can play properly without your inventory and PDA being an overbloomed mess.. For some reason, weapons and hands count as the HUD as well.. So that's probably what you are dealing with

[molten marsh]

That makes sense. I have the full addon ReShade variant as I understand the addons that comes with the modded exes deals with the UI exclusion. I know there's ReshadeEffectsShaderToggler (REST) which I've fiddled around with another game to help with this specific issue, though with no luck. If weapons/hands count as HUD, I think REST would not probably hold as well, as I think the modded exes are actually doing the exact same thing what REST would if configured.
Though regardless, thanks.

[rapid magnet]

Yeah REST was the name.. I forgot the addon.. I read it up somewhere but forgot about it.. If you can reinstall and disable that addon or find a way to disable it directly inside of reshade then your issue should be resolved BUT it could also start affecting other HUD elements as well.. I know about the modded exes feature but that stopped working a few reshade versions ago (at least it did for me)

[molten marsh]

Yeah sadly didn’t work in my initial tests. I disabled the two addons I recall don’t ship with ReShade with default (other two aside from the Generic Depth). The UI masking/exclusion did get removed, but the hands/weapons still don’t have the correct normals/depth.

Modded exe UI masking still works for me for the most recent ReShade version (6.7.3).

Just had to make sure it’s the Full Addon ReShade version/variant.

The regular one doesn’t work with the modded exe UI masking.

I’m also using a more recent MT modded exe, so that may also be why.

[rapid magnet]

What if you try it without any modded exe? Like, base Anomaly from moddb exes?

[distant herald]

What are popular reshade these days? I keep hearing outdated, outdated.. but I can't find any recent ones

Whats good?

[rapid magnet]

Clarity and sharpening

[distant herald]

Thanks

[molten marsh]

I'll probably break a lot of mods in GAMMA that is depending on the modded exes.

I've tried different ReShade versions according to what I've been able to find and read on the modded exe's GitHub.

• 6.4.0
• 6.4.0 Addon
• 6.4.1
• 6.7.3 (latest)
• 6.7.3 Addon (latest)

Still no luck.
I've found 2 commits directly addressed with ReShade compatibilty from the modded exe's GitHub.
So I'm gravitating to the reasoning that it is indeed exe related.

My last option right now is to use the regular modded exe instead of the MT one. If that doesn't work, then I guess I'll just have to live with it...

[quaint dust]

What reshade presets can you recommend?

[inland path]

What Erandis said 2 messages above

[polar citrus]

i'm rocking Bloomdark lately and it' simply beautiful

outdated? maybe, but still a piece of heaven considering how good it looks

[rapid magnet]

Mostly meant to test it on vanilla exes like without GAMMA.. If you back up the exes and db modded gamedata file you can run the game without any modpack or modded exes.. The only issue is to find the base Anomaly exes unless you download the whole game from scratch

[halcyon mortar]

could you give a link to bloomdark ?

Bloomdark in question

[devout meteor]

how do you guys think this reshade looks?

[rapid magnet]

Dark af

[devout meteor]

it was 7pm in game about to turn night sooo

[rapid magnet]

Not a good time to show off a reshade preset your trees are also black for some reason

[fast sparrow]

does reshade work with linux?

[rapid magnet]

Yes

[timber depot]

how do i fix this please?

[maiden maple]

So, I wanted to post this in ⁠https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1036172060969410590, but I can't for some reason, so I'll put it here:
The GAMMA installation guide for Atmospherics (https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/hippos-shaders-and-atmospherics) on ModDB seems to assume that ReShade is already installed with GAMMA, and you can simply open the ReShade menu and select the preset. But that isn't the case, and the ReShade installation guide here (#╟🎑reshades message) says to delete the presets (.ini files) from Atmospherics in Anomaly/Bin, which would obviously be counterintuitive if you want to use them. Should I just follow the ReShade installation guide's instructions to delete it all, uninstall Atmospherics, and then reinstall it?

[near lotus]

.ini files in Anomaly/Bin are from the 5.7.0 version of ReShade which isn’t supported on newer modded exes versions
Grok didn’t care to remove them when the opportunity was there so people have to do it manually

Atmospherics doesn’t do the same reshade that this channel is about, instead its basically just a LUT (performance safe simple reshading/color correction and whatnot)

[distant herald]

I'm using the LUT from the Movie now. It lokis great

[long valley]

How I install the Badlands V6 Reshade? I already installed the Reshade setup and selected all files.
is the Badlands V6 on gamma by default, if yes how do I activate it ?

[quick basin]

looks very much like tarkov

[tall pulsar]

great and blooming

[tidal dew]

hey guys i just downloaded chroma density LUT and TWilight Plus .ini where should i put each?

[naive swan]

Put the twilight plus.ini in bin folder inside anomaly

For the lut itself just install through mo2

[tidal dew]

thanks

do i need to reinstall reshade?

[north cypress]

Do we need to manually install reshade for the game? When i press home it didn't open the reshade menu for me

[unreal mica]

im having the same exact issue here

saw from another discord that it means we're missing shaders so we didnt install them in the right place

You're joking right

The last 4 messages literally say that pins exist.....

[abstract sparrow]

hello! so i've read in the pinned messaged in this sections that some good LUT's are the ones of Forester which i've installed but the game looks purple now and activating the LUT via reshade gives me black screen.

also did i've install the LUT mod correctly? i am not even sure how to use the mod organizer to be honest

thanks in advance, i am pretty new here, so i am sorry if i am asking something that might be stupid for you guys

[frank trout]

Clean shader cache (delete the folder in anomaly/appdata)

actually worked!

[pine folio]

anyone know where to get edens reshadde?

[frozen wasp]

i need some help. i want to make shadow more smooth but i don't know how to fix it. my shadow look like double shadow 2 shade. anyone can help me?

[viscid hill]

screenshot ? sound like banding

[frozen wasp]

can i fix shadow better than this?

[viscid hill]

yer using Reshade? I remember there was a reshade that solve this banding problem

[frozen wasp]

yes i use it.

so can i fix it? or not

[viscid hill]

Do you use the one that solve the banding effect?

I remember there was one while first time installing Reshade

I think it's your Bloom that bled into the shadow and shade, trying to "ease" it, mess with its setting to get a softer bloom

[frozen wasp]

i don't know about banding effect. i just install and select all effect

can you teach me?

[viscid hill]

trying messing around with the bloom spread and bloom curve maybe?

bigger spread, bigger bleeding, less noticable banding, the curve idk what curve it is

[viscid hill]

the second one look kinda weird, overcast sky with hard grass shadow ?

[frozen wasp]

yeah. i just follow this setting from youtube.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yMGMaPoRVdo&t=2668s

[misty echo]

that shit looks nasty

[viscid hill]

how many fps are you playing on man...

I hope it is at least 3 digits... otherwise it's not worth it making stalker looks like eft

[frozen wasp]

around 50-60 for now

[viscid hill]

I would optimize for fps first if I were you... getting swarmed by dogs and reload saves is not fun...

[frank trout]

the good thing about being CPU bound is that I can play with reshade without worrying about it affecting my performance

[viscid hill]

how do you tell that?

[frozen wasp]

my PC can hold it. lol

[frank trout]

By (most) graphical settings not affecting performance

[frozen wasp]

So, is it bad now? Because I just wanted the lighting and shadows to look more realistic. Regarding the texture, I think I could either reduce it or find a better one.

[viscid hill]

oh really? I didn't know that

[viscid hill]

eh if it's not affecting fps too much, give it a go

[frozen wasp]

i just fix some bloom right?

now it look like

[viscid hill]

yeah, i guess it's your bloom, wait or use console to make the weather sunny to get a better look for that banding
since it's only available in harsh sharp shadow

the effect I said earlier btw

[frozen wasp]

perhaps the shadows I mentioned that seemed strange or overlapping might just be sunlight. I noticed the light from streetlights was sharp and normal. I tried increasing the Bloom setting as you suggested, but I didn't see any change.

nevermind i can play this. lol

[glad shell]

anyone got a fix?

[inland path]

The yellow part is telling you

[glad shell]

i read, i tried to fix it but it didnt work

not really a way to help dude, its pretty clear taht if im asking its cause itried to fix it by following the instructions

[frank trout]

the instructions tell you how to set up effect paths

or maybe you didn't install any effects during reshade installation

[frank trout]

I think I managed to make DXVK work with Reshade, need to do further testing but it's actually pretty simple

[fluid kiln]

guys pls help what doing

[frank trout]

Did you properly set up the shader and texture paths

[fluid kiln]

yes, after installing some mods like Arriva, Reshade stopped working for me

[pure grove]

posting this before bed but

first image with, second image without. going for something more subtle.

what the fuck was the compression on that jesus

[raven sigil]

Is anyone here willing to give me a little help to get my reshade console to work? :)

So I'm trying to activate a reshade in the console, I've changed the directories to reshade-shaders/shaders/ and reshade-shaders/textures/ which did something but still when I go to select a shader and press the "effect toggle key" it just flickers and nothing changes :). Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

[polar citrus]

you shouldn't do that

just keep the reshade-shaders stuff where they are and leave it there

I would reinstall everything if I were you

just delete reshade-shaders folder, and install everything again, 100% normal again

[copper plover]

decided to try reshade today - first preset i tried and it looks amazing ❤️

[fossil stump]

How do i make the Agressor reshade inventory not so dark

[misty echo]

just dont use 10yo reshade presets

[fossil stump]

very helpful

[misty echo]

agressor was always dark even when it looked decent. just untick the shaders until you find the one making it dark. its not that difficult

[fossil stump]

great insight

glad i could be of service

[wicked moth]

can someone help me fix my shaders? more than half of them give me a black screen and they aren't the LUT ones

[chrome spindle]

they changed how to install it @wicked moth

and @night swallow you have to go into this path

then copy the bin file and place it in the directory of your anomaly folder

Then go to reshade.me, download reshade, and then when ur installing it, click browse in the bottom right corner and select your anomaly folder. then set reshade to whatever graphics option ur using (DX10, DX11, etc.)

theres a more in depth tutorial in the pinned messages

[weak crow]

does anyone know why installing arrival anomalies would remove the dsitortion effects form my game

[rapid magnet]

Because you ticked it and it’s not related to reshade

[rapid magnet]

That’s definitely not how you do it now since you are effectively copying a lot of broken presets and old af shit.. The pins are the correct way since reshade support ended on GAMMA..

What I meant by “do it now” is regarding the statement of “they changed how to do it”.. They changed it by updating the pins and the bot command

[buoyant wagon]

how does one achieve this look lol

[crystal orchid]

the visible mods in this is atmos rc6, c-con summer grass, stalker legacy lut and relook reshade shaders with alot of tweaking, but my gamma modlist has 750 mods where not every of them are related to graphics

[molten tendon]

sheesh
any guide on how this works ?
also what r ur specs?
looks pretty high end

[crystal orchid]

well yeah i have rtx 5090 but its laptop so it translates to about a 4080 in raw performance, also im playing on 4k, the main mods you need before going for the relook setup are atmospherics rc6 which you can find here in the mods posting, just search atmospherics and look at the pins, and then i use c-consciousness summer grass, same deal, its here on mods posting just search consc, but the relook is a paid reshade shader which you can find by searching on google, it costs 1 dollar if im correct, and you just install that, do you also want my preset for it? so you dont have to tweak everything yourself?

but actually im pretty sure you can run it with almost same performance on a little lower because my old pc with double rtx 2080ti could also run it like this(tho the atmospherics wasnt updated to rc6)

i think its mostly about how the anomaly engine is limited, but having a great setup can help it massively, tho i still sometimes experience stutters, not bad, just a little bit, but that i suspect is just the way the xray engine is hard coded

[molten tendon]

aight thanks alot dude
but its probly not for me
i ahve 5700xt lol

[crystal orchid]

you can probably still do something, but yeah you are pretty limited by that, i would check out atmos rc2 if i were you, its little less perfomance heavy, and would also recommend you to not use reshade at all, because just having it installed and using small effects somehow fucks the performance up alot

[molten tendon]

dang
alright bruh
thanks alot

[severe knoll]

so i fucked my reshade settings, how can i revert to default ones?

[crystal orchid]

reinstall

[buoyant wagon]

heyooo quick question is there an installment guide for rc6? can't seem to find it

You install it like any other mod

oh bet i thought there would be special requirements for it thank you!

[crystal orchid]

#1036172060969410590 message

pretty important to do it is to manually delete the shader cache which can be found in anomaly/appdata and then important is to go in mod configuration menu, then scroll down to sss and in sss menu you need to click default on all the tabs, if this is not done, it will look different and have worse performance

I Installed Reshade normally, shaders (.fx) are there and I can tweak them manually. But when I load any preset, it loads with everything unchecked — no effects applied, image doesn’t change.

No errors in the log. How can I fix this?

[rapid magnet]

Tick the effects that are in the preset you exported without any effects enabled

[deft mulch]

i wish there was some reshades that made the game actually photorealistic (like how our eyes see it) rather than cinematic.

[granite sable]

twin tell me how tf you get 750 mods i need to know the elit ball knowledge you gor in there

[granite sable]

if you find smth like that tell me i want to know

[crystal orchid]

i asked that question alot, then when i looked at how people did this in other games i saw alot of people tweaking it to theire liking, meaning after what ive seen, i believe photorealistim is highly subjective

[deft mulch]

true, true

[crystal orchid]

its not really worth it tho, but 150 ish of them are individual weapon mods, alot of them coming from juan, then theres the the texture mods i use, i only use about 15 of those but its better to use less, then just alot of bullshit like small scripts

i tried installing Clikrads reshade and it made me replace a bunch of files on the reshade install, im not the biggest fan of the reshade and miss the base gamma look, can I patch my files somehow? or do I even need to?

[frank trout]

just disable reshade. You don't need to patch anything, that's just a preset.

it probably came with effects that you already have anyway, replacing them doesn't do anything

probably, thanks man!

Sorry I didn't quite understand what I need to do)
I am using preset with 1600+ lines of config - I can set them manually because I have all the effects. But it is long process i better not bother then

[crystal orchid]

honestly im glad that stuff like chatgpt exists because it can help people like this, but it seems as tho people dont want to use it

[noble tapir]

I am using it and i still dont understand

[crystal orchid]

easiest way to do this honestly is when you try install reshade, after you clicked the game exe and stuff, when it asks you to check the effects, just double click up on the tab where it says something like "disable all effects" or something like that, it will enable all non paid reshade effects there is, then next, then it will download and install all effects, then place the reshades .ini in the same folder as the anomaly exes meaning anomaly/bin

[noble tapir]

I did this, I have all the effects needed for the preset I am trying to use

[crystal orchid]

you see the mouse?

click there, choose your preset

[noble tapir]

I open preset i want to try

but it loads only 2 effects while preset contain 100+ effects.
no errors in log either

[crystal orchid]

bromato

redownload the .ini, name it something else, try again

you dont even have to close the game

[runic grove]

is it okay to delete all these if I'm not using it?

[brazen sinew]

Uhh what? What does that have to do with anything I'm confused

[blazing breach]

Hey, I got a laptop, how do I open reshade menu xd

[icy notch]

Check pinned message bro

There's instruction for that

[compact belfry]

Can someone explain to me what the point of the 2 asterisks is in this step of the pinned guide?

[rapid magnet]

It means everything in said folders.. Since Textures and Shaders have effects and subfolders with more effects.. The double asterisk is so that reshade loads and shows all of it

[compact belfry]

Oh shit, I see. Thanks Erandis!

[blazing breach]

I will, thanks man!

[solid idol]

hey, i was wondering what visual mods are generally recommended for playing around with? ive not bothered to add more to the game before so idk what there is to work with

[nocturne light]

im getting an error in reshade shaders saying that the shaders were not able to compiled when i load into the main menu. i still have the presets for all the various shaders but none of the actual visual affects. what should i do.

for context, i originally installed gamma with reshade shaders DELETE on. so i saved my altered profile for gamma in mo2 and updated/installed gamma with the delete option off. now when i load into mo2 i choose my altered version of gamma

[nocturne light]

now i got it to this

[supple cobalt]

What layers do you use? SSGI and what else?

[rapid magnet]

Lmao you're joking right?

[supple cobalt]

no

Also does GAMMA use baked lighting?

[rapid magnet]

Ok.. You are responding to a dude no longer in this server.. If you look up why he's no longer in this server, you'd know how silly that question sounds..

[supple cobalt]

huh?

[rapid magnet]

Ok then.. Nevermind..

Just play the game

[supple cobalt]

I want to know how it works

not just play

[rapid magnet]

https://www.google.com/search?client=opera-gx&q=how+does+global+illumination+work&sourceid=opera&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8

[supple cobalt]

Does this game use SSGI? DDGI?

RTGI?

Brixelizer GI?

ik how the different GI techniques work, but im not sure which one it uses

[near lotus]

there’s no GI here

Base game one doesn’t work
SSS doesn’t do it

That’s it

Idk about reshade, we don’t use it either

[supple cobalt]

really????

[near lotus]

no one did it
No one fixed it

[supple cobalt]

looks really nice, even compared to like rtgi

[near lotus]

probably the amount of stuff crammed into sss like indirect light, ao, tonemaps etc etc

[blazing breach]

Ran into this issue when booting after installing reshade

[near lotus]

Check the Screen Space Shaders page

[near lotus]

Try launching again, this error usually corrects itself on next launch

[supple cobalt]

Does base gamma use baked lighting?

[blazing breach]

On it

[near lotus]

You mean static lighting?

[rapid magnet]

"S.T.A.L.K.E.R. Anomaly, built on a heavily modified 64-bit X-Ray engine, primarily uses a combination of Screen Space Shaders (SSS) and advanced DirectX 11 dynamic lighting to simulate global illumination. It simulates indirect lighting and ambient occlusion through methods like HBAO or SSDO"

[near lotus]

[blazing breach]

Working now, thank you a lot!

[supple cobalt]

yeah

[near lotus]

Then no, R2 renderer allows for use of dynamic lighting and that persists to R4 (DX11) which is used by default

Static lighting can be forced upon by using commands or DX8

[supple cobalt]

what, so this game doesnt use GI or baked lighitng

[near lotus]

It does not

[supple cobalt]

damn, still looks amazing wihtout those

[near lotus]

Like i said - SSS does the heavy lifting

Its not even tuned properly in gamma
The configs for various settings are awful if you ask those in the know

[supple cobalt]

damn, yet people sill be using shit like lumen 😭

[blazing breach]

I lowk might be stupid, but i just installed reshade and all the presets. However, when i navigate the presets inside the game with the reshade menu, the folders are empty. What am i misisng?

[near lotus]

Did you follow the guide in the pinned messages?

[blazing breach]

I believe so

[near lotus]

double check everything then

[blazing breach]

Nevermind, i missed a bit

[supple cobalt]

Also I was askign these questions becuase Im makign a game engine renderer and was wondering what tech this game uses to get it looking so damn good

[blazing breach]

Okay, so i did the full guide now, but still, i dont know how to choose a preset

[crystal orchid]

[hollow glade]

there are baked light maps that are baked for whole map geometry and are used alongside dynamic light sources without them game would look like shit sum baked lmaps ss:

[errant slate]

Do you have examples, or a guide how to set it up properly and make it better?

[blazing breach]

Playing in a computer, any recommended light weight shaders?

[light canopy]

Hi everyone! Could you please advise which shaders and settings can be applied to achieve graphics like in this screenshots?

[crystal orchid]

looks like simple bloom

[magic shore]

I installed ReShade but when I launch it, I get the error "Shaders compilation failed." I deleted the shaders_cache folder, but it didn't help.

[crystal orchid]

that cant be a reshade error

[magic shore]

I only got it when I installed it

[rapid magnet]

https://tenor.com/view/wait-nowords-nathan-fillion-nevermind-gif-3534534

[strong scaffold]

What's the reshade? It looks very juicy. Can you give me a download link?

[rapid magnet]

Was most likely a screenshot from someone else's game.. His question is looking for similar results.. He won't have the link man

[lean nebula]

the first screenshot likely has the volumetric light shader bumped pretty high in mcm

under SSS settings > shadows and light

to achieve that look the street light gives off

[pastel reef]

bro what do I do

[tiny hatch]

turn off LUT.fx in reshade

and read pinned

[pastel reef]

damn thanks

[trail talon]

how to disable shaders, my shader tab in mo2 doesn't open?

and the Reshade menu doesn't open in the game

[rapid magnet]

Search shaders in MO2 (unrelated to reshade)
The shaders separator hasn't had anything inside of it for years
Type !deshade in #🤖bot-commands to remove reshade if you want to
Read the pins to install reshade if you want to

To be honest I'm not entirely sure what you even want.. You want to disable shaders but you also want your reshade menu to open.. Two different things that can't happen at the same time

[trail talon]

all I want is for the shaders not to take away my FPS)

[rapid magnet]

#╰⚡fps-optimisation I guess.. Or go for the !dx command in #🤖bot-commands if you want to remove base shaders that are fundamental

[sour socket]

I need some help, when i install ReShade GAMMA simply dont open, i dont understend allways work nice, but from yesterday, i updated and dont work whit Shaders, if i desinstall them , work again. Anybody can help me???, please.

[supple cobalt]

do reshade effect the UI of the game?

[rapid magnet]

With the right addon, no

[barren drum]

You can try to launch Anomaly DX11 instead of Anomaly Launcher in MO. That helped me

[sour socket]

No, GAMMA dont open

[sour socket]

Yes i do it always thos one o DX11AVX

[sour socket]

Right addon??

[rapid magnet]

That has absolutely nothing to do with reshade applying to the HUD.. Figure out why your GAMMA won't open but it's not because of an addon

[rapid magnet]

The ReShade addon is called REST.. That will exclude the HUD from shaders

[sour socket]

Sorry , my english is so poor i dont understend this, The Reshade addon is called Rest

Dont work more in GAMMA, the problem begin when update to 8.4, the last week.

[rapid magnet]

When you download reshade, you get the one with full addon support.. And when installing it, it shows you a list of addons that you can choose.. The one that makes it so that shaders don’t affect the HUD is called ReshadeEffectShaderToggler or REST

Read the pins to install reshade properly.. What I mentioned was for someone else for something different and unrelated

[sour socket]

ah ok. i was playing Gamma 2 o 3 years a go, i make videos of GAMMA for a channel in Spain, woerking whit shaders for long time.

i dont know whats happened now.

All fail after i updated the last week

And dont see any solution, GAMMA work nice whit out Shaders, when i installed this one GAMMA simply dont open from MO2

You are the man from Wet Puddles, no???

[rapid magnet]

I did post Glossy Puddles yes
I've heard many people unable to open Anomaly after installing ReShade but never had that issue myself

[cyan folio]

hi guys. what are some of your favourite GAMMA reshades?

[rapid magnet]

Clarity and sharpening

[sour socket]

Yes , GAMMA simply dont open and dont send you any report, only crash loading around 5 seconds and stop, MO2 refresh the screen and nothing more.

[rapid magnet]

Then try the other exe

Either AVX or non-AVX.. Try the one you are not using

Or, and here's the best advice:

Don't use reshade

[vernal notch]

GAMMA currently has an issue, patch fixing it will be May 8th

[sour socket]

No, i need to use ReShade for my videos serie, its something like my personal sign.

[rapid magnet]

Unrelated to the issue this person is having though.. Reshade is completely separate to the gamma issue and started long before the installer went down

[ancient pawn]

Did you update your launcher?

[calm sun]

anyone got any ideas to make gamma look like it wasn't launched in 2009. I'm not very good at modding it

[pine folio]

Atmospherics and Screen Space Shaders (SSS). Just look up how to update them if on GAMMA, or how to install fresh if using clean ANOMALY.

[calm sun]

Alr

[pine folio]

Also, texture packs. KVMA, GFY, or HD textures for GAMMA for characters. Whatever overall texture pack you want (I forgot all the names). A ground textures mod which I forgot all the names of also. A grass and trees mod like ccon or aydins grass tweaks which comes with GAMMA. I like ccon personally. That’s all I can really think of rn.

[calm sun]

Bet. Waiting until after 9.5 comes out to do all this, but I'll look into it

[pine folio]

Ccon will come with 0.9.5 btw. Everything else is game from what little I know.

[calm sun]

I see

[sour socket]

Yes

[ancient pawn]

Yeah you not supposed to till the 8th your stuff is gonna not work till then

[sour socket]

You think that??

[ancient pawn]

Kmva hates my pc fr

[ancient pawn]

I did the same thing and got told to wait till the 8th for the next update, baisically just not gonna work till then

[sour socket]

OK, i hope that

[ancient pawn]

Yeah I’m not too sure how it’s gonna work, I was told I may have to redownload the entire game again once the time comes

[obtuse aspen]

first of all, use gfy and the overhaul from erandis, ato 5 2k moddb stalker boss link, panceride optmized atumn bc7 mod db too cinematic vfx merge from gamma mods posting, second of wall get the aplha 13 Screen Space Shaders 24 from Asci discord it's like 3 bucks (worth it, trust me) and third tweak the settings from SSS 24 using the f11 key on your keyboard in real time. 4 lut reshade really helps

[fossil verge]

Should I have something more or hd textures and C-Conscousness gonna be fine for a start?

[rapid magnet]

Not really reshade related

[fossil verge]

ahh, ok, my bad.

I kinda understood reshades as graphics upgrades in general.

[graceful geode]

is there a way to remove the grains? im outside radiation and the world still looks grainy af

[surreal acorn]

how to fix missing effects on reshade?

[misty echo]

delete em

[primal iron]

what shader is that ?

[rapid magnet]

Excessive bloom slop

[nocturne raptor]

guys how i can fix this?

[spark imp]

ayo

i have rehade and all my reshade in my bin how do i reactivate after update lol

👋

[sly lodge]

does gamma come with reshade already and reshade shaders? and if not what are your recommendation for what shaders should i pick?

[frank trout]

Excessive AA, Clarity, and Sharpen effects can lead to grains. Some others too probably

At least in my experience

[misty fossil]

where are the reshade dlls located?

i mean .fx files

[hazy sedge]

How disable reshade ?

i cant open it

[rapid magnet]

Not the same thing

[rapid magnet]

!deshade

[void depot]

@hazy sedge Go to your [Anomaly]\bin folder and delete d3d9.dll and dxgi.dll files

[polar tusk]

I dont have those files in the bin folder, trying to deshade my game

[lunar hornet]

so you don't have reshade.

[polar tusk]

i downloaded that app for reshades yesterday and saw a bunch of shaders when pressing Home

was trying some of them but all look the same, so maybe I downloaded it wrongly?

[frank trout]

you have dxgi right there in the image, .dll is a file extension that is hidden by default

[polar tusk]

oh ok sorry lol
d3d9 isnt there tho

[frank trout]

ye I think that's some old stuff, I don't have it either

[polar tusk]

still having the same problem, sahder compilation failed

[frank trout]

shader compilation issues have nothing to do with reshade I'm pretty sure

in fact 100% sure, you have an issue with something else

[polar tusk]

dayium, ok thank you, will try one more to update gamma in the launcher

[spare cedar]

is the fog normal?

[rapid magnet]

yes but also not reshade related

[spare cedar]

by the pic can u tell if reshade on?

[hazy sedge]

I disabled that hideous mod, and immediately everything looked beautiful and there was less lag.

• Atmospherics Shaders Weathers and Reshade

[spare cedar]

i just did it and YES u are right for some reason

now it looks better (ignoring the rain)

[hazy sedge]

For a long time, I couldn't figure out why everything looked so blurry and the colors were so strange—the color grading was completely blown out. I spent half the day tweaking various settings, but now everything looks awesome after disabling those ReShade filters.

[spare cedar]

what did that mod tho? the hideout one

[hazy sedge]

Just Atmospherics Shaders

[rapid magnet]

[frank trout]

I love this channel

It really grounds you, you know? Makes you feel connected to the earth

[rapid magnet]

Makes me want to kill myself

[frank trout]

Might as well make the most of it, though.

[rapid magnet]

True

And on that note

Actual reshade screenshots in the reshade channel

With mods properly optimized and install correctly instead of disabling a base mod that's very important for visuals just to get rid of a weather effect

[frank trout]

Lovely

Is that new diolator

[rapid magnet]

Yeah it's damn good

[frank trout]

I can tell by the smooth tractor

But yeah good stuff. Wish I knew how to take screenshots. Ultrawide fov isn't helping

[rapid magnet]

Dof, clarity, and sometimes a border for screenshots

Everything else is base GAMMA with updated Atmos settings

google translate go brrr

[split crane]

yo whats the reshade???

[calm sun]

Я мог бы, но так веселее.

[rapid magnet]

Letterbox (borders), adof, and clarity.. Only first two are used for screenshots, not during gameplay

[split crane]

Is it a preset?

[rapid magnet]

Nah just ticked them in reshade.. Give me a moment to find the exact effects

[split crane]

Ok cool so custom preset?

[rapid magnet]

Kinda yeah.. It's not saved or anything it's just default reshade.. Not using a specific preset

Clarity came from god:
https://github.com/LVutner/reeShaders

And adof came from a bigger god

So you could download and install LV's shaders and use PIPNIK's adof as the preset I guess

[calm sun]

Очевидно, это тебя задевает. Ты продолжаешь говорить.

[split crane]

So what’s the effects? Just want beautiful sunsets and stuff

[rapid magnet]

LV_clarity.fx I think? I don't remember the full name.. The sunsets and stuff is just base GAMMA on my side

[calm sun]

Я почти уверен: эти провокации тебя задевают, чувак. Ты продолжаешь отвечать. Ты продолжаешь ругаться. Ты не знаешь, когда остановиться. Ты проиграл.

ey so like whats the effects total? clarity.fx thats it?

im sorry im buggin you just my game looks not very beautiful lol

[rapid magnet]

Yeah I just use clarity from LV during normal gameplay.. For screenshots I enable adof from pipnik

[split crane]

you sure? cus your gmae looks like beautiful beautiful like the skies look amazing

[rapid magnet]

Those are just with Clarity

[split crane]

DAMN

[rapid magnet]

I also use Atmos RC6.6

[split crane]

whats that?

[rapid magnet]

#1036172060969410590 message Latest Atmos that's not on moddb yet

I have a mini guide here 1 sec

[split crane]

ok its a reshade preset right? and also im on a older gamma btw

[rapid magnet]

• Get the latest Atmos RC (NOT THE SSS24 VERSION)
• Install normally through MO2
• Place it at old Atmos location
• Disable old Atmos, enable new Atmos
• Go to Anomaly\appdata and delete the shaders_cache folder
• Go to Anomaly\appdata and delete ALL .ltx files except for the user.ltx <-- THIS STEP IS IMPORTANT
• When in-game, go to MCM > SSS Settings and click Default on every tab
• Restart game
• Once in-game again, open console and type cfg_load atmos_neutral

That's it

Nah not a preset.. Updated weather mod

[split crane]

ok uhh so wheres atmos? btw i should just disable it right?

[rapid magnet]

So it should look like this in MO2

[rapid magnet]

And Atmos RC6.6 is in this link

[split crane]

do i use PHORZACS presets?

[rapid magnet]

I don't use any of that.. All of the presets currently in GAMMA are a few years old and heavily outdated

[split crane]

what abt the saturaition? just nope?

[rapid magnet]

I use base 1.0
It just makes it more gloomy during gloomy weather and more colorful during clear weather

But you can choose any.. The differences are minimal but does help for the overall look

[split crane]

SSAO replacer?

ok im so sorry im asking so many questions just dont wanna break my game lol

[rapid magnet]

I use that at High quality

Just don't tick Dark Signal and the fog distance increase

Everything else you can tick

[split crane]

just tick everything BUT the soundscape overhaul?

[rapid magnet]

Yeah just 2, 4, and 5

[split crane]

i dont think ill do persistent puddles more realistic

[dawn lance]

Im unable to type this in the atmos mod post but, is there a way to reduce the green tint of weapons and models when indoors? with atmospherics?

[rapid magnet]

Your Anomaly\appdata folder should look like this when you follow this guide --> #╟🎑reshades message

[split crane]

cus i mean puddles aitn everywhere rn outside my house rn

[rapid magnet]

Yeah that's perfectly fine

[split crane]

this good? nothin break?

[rapid magnet]

It's very cinematic for screenshots but if you want realism then leave it off

That looks fine

[split crane]

cool installed do i just disable the old atmosphereics? and whats next? now that its installed

been a while since ive modded gamma so im just being cautious

[dawn lance]

is there a setting in sss that intensifies this?

[rapid magnet]

- Get the latest Atmos RC (NOT THE SSS24 VERSION)

No it's currently just a reflection thing from Atmos.. Hippo knows about this

Will post it there

[split crane]

ok once i do the CFGload atmos thing will it be permenant aka i dont needa do taht load thing

[dawn lance]

thank u

[split crane]

and i did all the stuff in the guide

[rapid magnet]

#1036172060969410590 message

[rapid magnet]

Yeah it only needs to be loaded once per Atmos update
As long as you deleted the old ones in Anomaly's appdata folder you're good

[split crane]

ok imma put the files in the weathers

ok im good now? i installed new ATMOS?

[rapid magnet]

You should be fine now yeah.. Once you load the game you can default every SSS MCM tab and check it out in-game

Pop on some LV_tinyclarity.fx or whatever it's called and you should be good to go from there

[split crane]

is it bad i got a memory crash? when loading into a new map? idk

game played fine

[rapid magnet]

Not really sure tbh.. If there was an issue with Atmos it would've crashed on game launch.. So it could be unrelated

[split crane]

yeah i loaded fine

[tidal sigil]

Was following all the instruction you gave the other two, thats why my stuff is now working, too. Thank you very much for that!
One last question: my Atmos is in place, named correctly, checked and old one unchecked...do it also uncheck the standard installed "190- Screen Space Sahers 23" or is it needed? That is order wise exactly above the atmos one by default.

[rapid magnet]

It’s the most important requirement

Only disable old Atmos and enable new, nothing else needs to be changed in MO2

[arctic umbra]

i also followed the instructions but i just wanted to ask if there was a way to get rid of the little glare you get from scopes

[pale laurel]

!sssupdate / but do not enable Bloom

[void depot]

@arctic umbra, follow these instructions :

1. Find 190 - Screen Space Shaders 23 - Ascii1457 mod in MO2 (use !mo2search command in https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1012510897136222293 to learn how)
2. Right click on it - Reinstall mod
3. Choose ticks in boxes as on the screenshot
4. Click Ok, then Replace
   ⠀

[pale zinc]

hey so I tried installing reshade now everything is a black blur lol. pls help

[arctic umbra]

Ok thank you so much sorry im new to this stuff 😅

[pale laurel]

!shaders - do this after reinstalling SSS

[void depot]

@arctic umbra 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.

[arctic umbra]

Thanks once again

[little reef]

im trying to follow a reshade guide on youtube but reshade is somehow gone from gamma for me now when I hit home it doesnt do anything

[gray geyser]

it was gone for me too after update, just download and put the files in the game folder again and delete the shader cache

[gentle fossil]

Using Chroma Density LUT causes my Fruit Punch anomaly to show up as gold instead of green. Dont have any overwrite/conflict problems as its highest in order and showing all greens across mod organizer. Any tips?

[rapid magnet]

That’s what the ferrum option does and says it in the fomod.. Reinstall and choose the other one

[lunar hornet]

[gentle fossil]

Well that worked, sorry and thanks ❤️

Доброго времени суток! Подскажите пожалуйста, как установить решейд на данную версию сборки, испытываю слюжности из-за языкового барьера, заранее благодарю!

[primal iron]

wheres this shader?

[primal iron]

wheres this reshader?

[rapid magnet]

The entire conversation below my screenshots explain it

#╟🎑reshades message <-- This person doesn't know.. They are looking for it themselves but it's just overblown bloom slop

[odd hound]

How to fix LUT???

[low mauve]

Guys, my gamma looks really bland, i didn’t change any settings but the default one just looks washed out, is there a way i can make it look better ? I looked into re shading but it seems complex

[rapid magnet]

Check the pinned messages.. You are missing a png file

[tawny robin]

theres quite a few tutorials online how to use preset reshade options and ones that are made with gamma in mind.

[rapid magnet]

#╟🎑reshades message
Start here and follow carefully.. Reshade is not needed to make it look good

Any base GAMMA reshades are severely out of date

[tawny robin]

I was just about to ask about this. Thank you!

[rapid magnet]

Ye they are unfortunately years old.. Atmos or Melancholy and an LUT mod is what most use these days

For reshade only Clarity, sharpening, and maybe mxao is worth using

[low mauve]

I just did, downloaded the reahade program and installed it now and will continue the steps

Guys, theres a step that says find and delete existing shaders and textures by pressing(-)

Is this what its talking about?

[rapid magnet]

Yes

[low mauve]

Okay im done and i pressed reload but the steps end , what now

[rapid magnet]

Did you choose any effects when installing reshade? That screen only pops up when you didn’t select anything

[low mauve]

I checked all the boxes

Is there a way to check if the effects are installed or not? I have gamma and anomaly in installed in my D drive

[rapid magnet]

All should be there

[rapid magnet]

That’s definitely not all of them

[low mauve]

Thats what re shade installed

Albeit at some point it gave an error saying a repository doesn’t exist anymore

Can i enable any of these ? Or are they not a full re shade

[rapid magnet]

You can but none will look good

#╟🎑reshades message
Just do that and you’ll be fine

[low mauve]

The atmospheric thing ?

[rapid magnet]

Yup.. It’s more than enough

[low mauve]

okay ill download it

[low mauve]

this is the guide for installing it ?

[low mauve]

I installed it and it looks better but my pda is hard to see now

[rapid magnet]

Yup

PDA I can’t say.. Mine works fine if not a little too bright

[low mauve]

yeah its bright

thank you so much for the help, i really appreciate it

[rapid magnet]

No worries

[low mauve]

If you ever fix the pda do tell, and thanks again

[rapid magnet]

Maybe reinstall SSS with these options.. Remove bloom completely

And don’t tick lasers, it breaks a new mod so leave it disabled

you have to delete all of the reshade related files from bin folder and then install reshade and make your own from scratch?

Anyone got any good reshades?

[split crane]

yo what reshade should i use to make the game more colorful?

[rapid magnet]

Clarity and sharpening

[rapid magnet]

Saturation

[stuck quartz]

Hi, where should I install Reshade? Which folder?

[rapid magnet]

Read the pins

[split crane]

hey dude so about RCS 6.6 aka the newest ATMOS

the sun in the sky is just a ball not actual like blochy and stuff just a simple circle

[rapid magnet]

Best bet is to mention that in the Atmos channel.. Many updates and changes have happened since the moddb version to RC6.6.. It's either intended or still needs to be ironed out

[split crane]

ok and where do i put the files for weather? aka the green shadow fix

[split crane]

like the ones you gave me

[split crane]

it is uhh NOT there.?

tf i had to reinstall anomaly cus i messed smth up with another mod but no enviorment is there oh wait is it gamma?

[split crane]

so uhh what do i do now?

https://tenor.com/view/say-that-again-gif-968943876633031890

[rapid magnet]

It's in the Atmos RC6.6 folder...

[split crane]

at this point i dont think im built for fuckin modding sometimes

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/864320092182413312/1503089781129871461/watermark.gif

but thx bro ive been putting that in my anomaly folder this entire time. no wonder it didnt fix crud lol

[split crane]

Ok last thing i swear how can i make it vibrant? any reshade presets you reccomend?

[rapid magnet]

None that I know of.. I usually just play with default settings without messing with what was made.. But just a vibrance effect in reshade should suffice

And if you install CCon with the Spring option it'll be even more colorful.. I personally wouldn't mess with the in-game vibrance settings since Atmos resets that every now and then anyway..

And Nvidia cards have Digital Vibrance which will have the same effect as in Reshade

[split crane]

whats ccon? maybe i should use that

[rapid magnet]

Grass mod

https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1279805292472832101

Not reall reshade used here but you can either use Sickhowl's grass on moddb and up the saturation in reshade or use ccon spring and do the same

[split crane]

can it work with Aydyns grass tweaks? do you use it?

[split crane]

does the mod have like different grass stuff like ya know atum etc

[rapid magnet]

CCon has seasons.. Sickhowl doesn't

I don't use Aydin.. Mod sucks and is outdated

[split crane]

do you use ccon? and also how do i make MO2 not blinding?

[rapid magnet]

I use CCon

MO2 --> Tools --> Settings --> Theme --> Style --> Paper Dark

[primal iron]

any good reshades?

[rapid magnet]

[primal iron]

wheres that?

[primal iron]

pls do tell

[rapid magnet]

There's literally a search bar in reshade

Pick your poison

[primal iron]

than kyou sir

ive dowlnloaded the recent reshade and its not on here

[rapid magnet]

I downloaded reshade this morning.. I have them.. So

[primal iron]

i got told to

[rapid magnet]

You can also just search Google and download the effects directly

[primal iron]

where do i put this?

done

[rapid magnet]

Read the instructions from where you got it.. It tells you

[primal iron]

i think i tagged you coupledays ago asking for the reshade of something else, you posted images

is that the same reshade?

[rapid magnet]

I only use Clarity during normal gameplay.. With screenshots I enable ADOF and borders, that's it

[primal iron]

these are the ones

ooooh

[primal iron]

yeah true dw tho lol

[sly lodge]

i am an complete noob at reshade stuff can someone tell me what reshade i should use cause i dont know any

[sly lodge]

is this supposed to be like this?

[primal iron]

yeah it is

download the latest reshade and then press the "home" button

on the right side and then pick your preset at the top

[sly lodge]

i have no presets only alsoft.ini and reshade-shaders

[primal iron]

wtf, that doesnt happen to m

did you change anything?

like in Atmos on mo2

[sly lodge]

i did the setup in the pinned

[primal iron]

oh

[sly lodge]

i deleted all the things

[primal iron]

what things?

[sly lodge]

and then downloaded reshade

[primal iron]

reshade shaders you deleted?

[sly lodge]

there was like atmos.ini atmos++.ini

i deleted those

IF YOUR ANOMALY/BIN FOLDER STILL HAS RESHADE-SHADERS, ReShade presets like Atmos.ini etc. and RESHADE.INI FILES, REMOVE THEM AND THEN FOLLOW THE GUIDE:

[primal iron]

i keot mine and just installed it and it worked lol

just install it again and then download reshade and then play

Guess is not today the day

[tawny robin]

Would this help with making things seem less "dry"?
For me every map is just grey and dry, enemies silhouettes are extremely difficult to make out.

[lunar hornet]

Yes.

[compact yarrow]

Does anyone know what caused the changes?

[idle wraith]

green

[frank trout]

Some reshade effect with some extreme settings, other than that hard to tell

[compact yarrow]

Reshade was working fine . I came in today and there were changes

I didn't touch the settings and mods

[austere ledge]

what the reshade does if may ask

[frank trout]

Maybe another preset got loaded? Is it the same preset?

[primal iron]

might be to do with the other version of reshade? the addon supported one

download the other one

[frank trout]

can you click the reload button at the bottom for me

[compact yarrow]

it costs 6.7.3

[frank trout]

Perezarguzit or whatever

[compact yarrow]

done

[frank trout]

did it help?

[compact yarrow]

no(

The brightness is set to minimum

[frank trout]

hmm I don't know, I've never seen this happen

can you check in settings if there is a hotkey to disable reshade effects? And see if it at least looks normal without reshade?

[primal iron]

i had the same thing

[frank trout]

in reshade settings

[primal iron]

i downloaded the addon supported version of reshade

[frank trout]

hmm I guess that might help idk

[compact yarrow]

And how to do it?

[compact yarrow]

I will try

[primal iron]

why do all of the presets look the same?

[fringe sierra]

How to fix?

[rapid magnet]

3 options:

1. Google that .fx and install it manually
2. Reinstall reshade properly and choose every effect like the pins mentioned
3. If the preset you are using doesn't use that effect, then just ignore it

Wait there's a 4th

Install kumo's reshade preset properly.. I see you are using the Iris Light preset which is from kumo at https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1476945769251475477
He included that fx file in his reshade

Just copy that entire reshade-shaders folder to your Anomaly\bin and replace when asked and it'll be there

[primal iron]

do i select all of these?

liek uncheck and then check all?

[rapid magnet]

That’s what the pins say yes.. But you didn’t follow all of it because I see AtmosR.ini at the bottom

@dusty zodiac

2-3 frames
not enough. even OG sss jitter needs 4 frames.
(see link below, there is a formula to make 'dynamic' ass blend factor based of framerate or smth)

filter size
prev frame input is resampled with spatio-temporal bicubic - one center (prev frame) tap, and 4 taps (top/b/l/r) from current frame.
aaaaand its size cannot be configured.
(see: https://www.activision.com/cdn/research/Dynamic_Temporal_Antialiasing_and_Upsampling_in_Call_of_Duty_v4.pdf - slide 69+)

also:

that's the secret sauce to ghosting-free reprojection
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyy-3j4KFik

TAA-compatible as long as you can figure out some good weights (based of prev-frame depth/velocity/something else).

[rocky stirrup]

i pressed home to see reshade menu but nothing happened. any idea why?

[deft pike]

Just a quick question about reshade, if i install reshade can i just simply uninstall it to get the game to original? Want to try it and see my performance and if its bad i want to know if it simple to uninstall or if should make a copy of the game

[rapid magnet]

You can use !deshade command in #🤖bot-commands or just rerun the reshade installer, it has an option to uninstall it

[tepid portal]

Hey guys, how do I know which .ini files to delete? I'm worried I might delete something unrelated to reshade or the presets and break the game

[tepid portal]

Thanks mate!
Could you perhaps tell me what I need to do to make my game look exactly like that?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yyHVwdIkszw

[rapid magnet]

That's really old.. Like, REALLY old..
Start here --> #╟🎑reshades message
End here --> #╟🎑reshades message
And you'll have something 10x better than that

None of the shaders, effects, colors, and/or textures in that video exists anymore

[tepid portal]

But do I still need to go through the steps of installing Reshade and deleting all the .ini files?
Sorry for the silly questions, I'm new to this, and so far it all seems pretty complicated to set up and install, but I really want my game to look insane

[rapid magnet]

That's up to you.. Personally, if you follow that string of messages and include an LUT mod with Atmos RC6.6, you won't need reshade

But you can still do reshade if you prefer.. The LUT I linked in that conversation has a reshade preset that compliments it

[tepid portal]

In that case I'll try it without installing Reshade
Judging by the messages above, that's already a big improvement over the default GAMMA

[rapid magnet]

It definitely is.. #╟🎑reshades message <-- That dark screenshot on a rainy day will look like Hippo's video if not better.. It's all his base settings after all

Atmos RC6.6 (and maybe above when updated) will be included in GAMMA eventually.. There's lots to do before an official moddb release

[tepid portal]

Damn that's just gorgeous

[rapid magnet]

All of these are base settings (no changes) mixed with https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1476945769251475477

And well.. Reshade was used for ADOF but that's just fluff for screenshots

[tepid portal]

That's right order? I just clicked on the "Install a new mod from archive", than proceed the installation process, after that drop Atmospherics 2.69 RC6.6 from GAMMA Disabled into GAMMA Fixes below the current 290 - Atmospherics Shader, and enable it and disable the old one

[rapid magnet]

Just delete the text in the search bar to be 100% sure that it's actually below the old one

[lunar hornet]

[rapid magnet]

Ye that looks good

Now just do the thing where you delete the old .ltx files, default every SSS MCM tab, and load the new config

[lunar hornet]

rearrange my 🎀 𝓈𝒽𝒶𝒹𝑒𝓇𝓈 🎀 daddy

[tepid portal]

By the way, I was playing with HDR turned on earlier, and the game looked a little better that way. Should I turn it off now?

[rapid magnet]

I don't think Atmos has any setting, config, or values for HDR

[tepid portal]

Got it

[tepid portal]

I reset all the SSS settings to their defaults and enabled cfg_load atmos_neutral in the console, but I might have done something wrong, because it feels like the game looks a little worse now 👀
Something’s off with the anti-aliasing, and the graphics overall don’t look that impressive 🙁

The overall image looks flat, and there are no lighting effects such as pretty sun flares, etc. What am I doing wrong?

[rapid magnet]

Grab:
https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/ccon-grass-n-trees (install any season)
https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/addons/ixrtr
https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1476945769251475477 (optional but recommended to get the Legacy LUT)
delete shaders_cache after installing all of them

With ccon:

• Open console
• Type r__detail_radius 180 and press enter
• Type r__detail_density 0.24 and press enter
• Type r__detail_height 0.9 and press enter
• Type vid_restart and press enter

Disable Aydin's Grass in MO2 along with it's SSS LOD Fix

[tepid portal]

Alright, let me try that
Btw how to install that LUT? I download .7z archive, what I need to do next?

And these two texture mods, do I just need to install them via MO2?
Do I need to set them up in a specific order, or disable other mods (except for Aydin's Grass)?

[rapid magnet]

Nah no other disables
Place all of them at the very bottom of MO2
The LUT mod you install like a regular mod in MO2 (it's not a reshade lut)

Regarding that weapon sight you have:

• 1st method :
  The Simplest But Not Most Effective Method (a small amount of glow will remain on collimator sights and the PDA)
  See screenshot 1, everything is shown there.

OR

• 2nd method:
  Reinstalling SSS Without the Bloom Module
  Find the MO2 mod "190- Screen Space Shaders 23 - Ascii1457".
  Right-click on it and select the "Reinstall mod" option. Untick PostProcess - BLOOM like in screenshot 2

[tepid portal]

Oh, so it's a bug? I thought that's how it was supposed to be after updating to version 0.9.5

[rapid magnet]

MT exes currently bugs Bloom a bit.. It will be fixed in SSS24

[tepid portal]

So, did I do everything right?

[rapid magnet]

Also disable

Rest looks good.. Just remember the grass settings

[tepid portal]

Yep let me try

[split crane]

hey do you know how to make atmospherics way more nice looking? mine looks grey ish and i need it to be vibrant and have great lighting and not be washed out its just it feels wrong??? like i wnat it to be more like expediton if youve ssen what that looks like and the sky to not be as blue?

just dont need it to be lala land type skies lol

[rapid magnet]

That'll require much more editing than just reshades or mods since you want it more vibrant but also want the skies not as vibrant.. I don't really know how to edit weather values like that

[split crane]

ok. uhh what abt bloom?

[tepid portal]

Yeah now that's look better! One more issue left - Anti-aliasing. Any idea how it can be fixed?

[rapid magnet]

Try:
MCM > SSS > Post Process > TAA > Jitter to 1 > Sharpness to ~0.4 maybe

And mip_bias to -0.5

in console

[lunar hornet]

-0.5
since TAA is blurry

[rapid magnet]

Ah.. Well then

[lunar hornet]

thats just me ofc, but i found -0.5 to work quite well

[tepid portal]

-0.5?

oh you mean mipbias sry

Yes that's look's much better now!

[tepid portal]

I turned on HDR and tweaked the settings a bit - now it looks absolutely amazing!
Thanks so much, @rapid magnet, you've been a huge help!

The screenshot is a little overexposed because it's HDR, but it looks amazing on my screen

I can imagine that it looks sick on your screen haha.. Glad I could help!

[daring knot]

спасибо, тоже по твоим сообщениям настроил

[torpid grove]

any recommendation for Reshade packs?

[dusty zodiac]

unfortunately im stupid and deleted the contents of the shader folder in my base anomaly gamedata folder the other day instead of the shader cache in appdata, the game appeared fine but is there a place i can copy from to replace what was in there/is it even necessary if just running gamma? ive got an old clean anomaly install but idk if theyd contain the same stuff

[light quiver]

i actually jsut did this myself, if you are able to just restore it from the recycle bin, do that

[dusty zodiac]

omg thanks for reminding me that exists

[arctic umbra]

so i just followed these steps but now my headlamp absolutely blows lol

[limpid sand]

Do you guys recommend HDR? I only just got a Monitor that can employ it and with the new performance buffs to the game, I figured it’s worth it. No the dizziest idea how to set it up but will tinker away and check out all the posts on the DC 😬

[dusty zodiac]

if your volumetric lighting is enabled and forced on try decreasing the intensity of it. i know the last time i played it pre-update, i had to turn it down to 0.1 even with the bloom at bare minimum settings as well. its just the only way they looked natural to me in a fogless environment.

[arctic umbra]

THIS WORKED thank you so much

kind of sucks i got to turn down volumetric lights though since i do like the way it looks in a way

[dusty zodiac]

yeah theyre super nice to gawk at but ig realism autism or something it gets the best of us

[arctic umbra]

oh and also have the bloom completely disabled since i cant stand the glare of the scopes 😅

[dusty zodiac]

yeah i might do the same i was just reading about how its actually supposed to be bugged rn but fixed SSS24

[arctic umbra]

yea when i first installed a lut it was super noticeable

hopefully it does get fixed fully

[dusty zodiac]

faith and patience, i believe

[plucky pewter]

Are you on 9.5 and running latest Atmos? You can grab Peak Volumetrics, install it and turn it on in console to get performance boosts.

(though I don't know if that works with SSS24)

[arctic umbra]

yes i am running ver 9.5 and i have atmos 2.69 I'm not 100% sure if that's the latest version correct me if I'm wrong ofc

[arctic umbra]

i did notice that with the new update my game runs significantly better specifically places like rostok

[plucky pewter]

Then yeah, grab .peak volumetrics, follow the instructions except for the executable bit because MT supports .peak

Hippo also I think runs it but he's also on SSS24 so it might not be necessary with that one, but peak optimizes volumetrics and I've been running forced volumetrics at all times with it

[arctic umbra]

ok thank you for letting me know 👍

[plucky pewter]

You can install peak as a mod, then remove the bin with executables, keep JUST gamedata with the shaders folder in it, turn it on, wipe shadercache, go ingame and input "pfx_volumetric_mode 1". That SHOULD get you better performance with the volumetrics on

[arctic umbra]

by remove the bin folder you mean move it somewhere else right? sorry if this seems dumb im just making sure 😭

[plucky pewter]

So, starting from the beginning, you download peak volumetrics, drop it in downloads of MO2 and install it from there. Once it is installed, you will have to open in explorer the peak volumetrics mod, remove bin from it because that contains the executable the author did (it's unnecessary, you can rename it if you want to bin2 and it won't matter, just don't overwrite the MT executables) and that's it. You can toggle it on as a mod after that and just follow the rest

[arctic umbra]

ok i got it and it seems to be working thank you so much

[dusty zodiac]

when i set my monitor to 120 and boot the game it reverts my monitor to 180hz, is there a way to fix that?

[lunar hornet]

[tepid portal]

Absolutely, it requires some tweaking both in Windows and within the game itself, but the end result is a much richer, more vibrant image, the lighting works better, and as I discovered yesterday, HDR works really well with Atmospherics + Kumo’s LUT (you can find the full instructions above)

[void phoenix]

Can someone help me figure out how to maintain a balanced graphics performance (60fps) using SSS + ES + Atmos on 4GB of VRAM? Is it possible? Should I "cut down" the mods to achieve balance (upscaling)?

[dusty zodiac]

pray

[lunar hornet]

nuke every single unoptimized texture/npc/gun mod.
disable useless modules [sss - you can keep TAA]
set mipbias to 1 (for lulz. small perf boost)
don't use hdr addon (because it hurts bandwidth even more)
resize skybox textures (atmos)
set smap resolution to 1536x1536
if you feel fancy, fork modded exes and fuck around

[tepid portal]

Hey @rapid magnet, sorry to bother you, so I decided to try installing Reshade, and I have a question about which .exe file to use. I'm using DirectX 11, but there are three files in the anomaly/bin folder. Which one do I need to install Reshade?

[lunar hornet]

Reshade only cares about DX version

[tepid portal]

Understood, thanks!

[void phoenix]

How do I do this in practice, resize the Atmos skybox, etc.?

[split crane]

hey what does color grading do? i wanna make my game look more vibrant with the Emergent Zone LUT

[dusty zodiac]

does enabling it in console persist session to session or would i need to put the parameters in the exec target box for that?

[plucky pewter]

Seems to persist

Will need to be input again if you update

[dreamy reef]

You guys have any idea how i can make my game look like this?

I followed this video but im missing the blue haze.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slHOznY3nZE

[jolly moat]

G’day lads, I’m trying to get preset reshades working, I’ve done the replacement bin thing, but when I open the menu, it says “no effect files”. Something I did wrong?

[rapid magnet]

The video has a reshade on it and explains where to get it

[rapid magnet]

Yeah, follow the pins more carefully.. You didn’t select all effects during installation and/or you did set the paths correctly

[lunar hornet]

Use GIMP with DDS plugin/other software. Cubemap consists of 6 layers, you need to downscale them and then export as a cubemap (iirc even old dds plugin could do that)

But maybe theres a better way. See anomaly modding book

[jolly moat]

Not sure that I saw anything about effects or paths, so, going to need a bit more help when I get back from school

[rapid magnet]

Paths

Effects

Doubt it'll be pinned in a reshade channel.. Atmos is mainly just a weather and shader mod

But you can always ask and hope for the best

[split crane]

should i use the base GAMMA atmospherics or the rc 6.6 for more vibvrant weather and such?

[rapid magnet]

That I can't really say.. RC6.6 + https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1476945769251475477 + vibrance cranked in reshade will maybe help

[split crane]

just wnat the game to be very vibrant in all weathers if thats possible like dying light 2 almost?

[rapid magnet]

CCon Spring with that LUT is already pretty vibrant

[split crane]

as in color grading tho i wnat a warm atmosphere not like green atmosphere that reddish orange

[rich ore]

prob not. but its a great help, just finished following that and the LUT one. thank you.

[rapid magnet]

I would then still say https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1476945769251475477 but the Stalker 2 Legacy one

[split crane]

just needa know how to do that. and what atmospherics should i do? the base one or download the rc 6.6? like as in nicer weather? not bleak

[rapid magnet]

6.6 imo

[split crane]

aight ill try it. anyway to NOT have cloudy weather be everywhere? and starting? idk

[split crane]

ok YEP rc 6.6

[rapid magnet]

Yeah 1 sec

https://www.moddb.com/addons/wpwm-weighted-probability-weather-manager

You can adjust the MCM so that Clear is mostly up

I would post more but I don't usually take screenshots where I look at the sun

That's all I have that shows the sun..
With Atmos RC6.6, and even previous versions, 7-about 08:30am and late afternoon ~17:30 is when it's nice and brown

[split crane]

adn what do i do to install rc 6.6 again? might needa scroll back up i know im supposed to like delete the atmos stuff and the shdaer cache correct?

[rapid magnet]

Around here --> #╟🎑reshades message I think

Yeah Atmos ltx in appdata and shaders cache

[split crane]

cool

do i needa reset my SSS settings?

and cfg_load neutral? cus the neutral makes my game very bleak

[steady marsh]

you could try warm instead of neutral

but i believe the lut was designed with neutral in mind

[rapid magnet]

Yup

[split crane]

ok and also dont i need soemthing to get green tint to go bye bye?

weather files or smth right?

[rapid magnet]

Oh yeah.. I forgot about those

[narrow girder]

hey guys... so i downloaded reshade and added the files to the anomaly/bin folder. i still cant access in game when i press "home" key. do i untick in the launcher and update to gain access?

[rapid magnet]

Follow the pins instead

[narrow girder]

thank you

[radiant coral]

Guys anybody else had Zenwork.fx, fail to compile?

Could not open
"normals.fxh"
"ZenteonCommon.fxh"
"albedo.fxh"

[rapid magnet]

1. If your preset doesn't use it, don't worry about it
2. Download reshade properly according to pins
3. Search each fx/fxh in Google and download them manually

• Place them in Anomaly\bin\reshade-shaders

Pick one and do that

[radiant coral]

I installed+reinstalled step by step, some(not all) of presets (phroZac, Atmos, edens) i used in older version of gamma just cause black screen now in 9.5

but it also seems they dont load properly

[rapid magnet]

Black screen is because of a missing png from lut.fx which is also in the pins

If you reinstall step by step, and not select everything (which is one of the steps), then you will sit with missing shaders

[radiant coral]

Interesting, thanks for posting

[dreamy reef]

I did rewatch it i am still not understanding where i missed it

Im sorry im just very new to gamma

[neon plaza]

guys, how delete reshade?

[rapid magnet]

!deshade

[void depot]

@rapid magnet Go to your [Anomaly]\bin folder and delete d3d9.dll and dxgi.dll files

[rapid magnet]

Or rerun the installer and just choose the uninstall option

[olive bay]

brb jumping into this rabbithole

[trail meteor]

I got this sweet sun ray shadow block..
Anyone got some idea what is causing it?

[lunar hornet]

a missing lens flare texture. see .log file.

and make a placeholder

[dusty zodiac]

ik hippo already made some tentative patch files to reduce the greenness of weapon reflections for atmos rc6.6 but is there anything else i can do? like is it specifically the skybox inducing it?

[lunar hornet]

greeness?

i guess it's hemi_color / ambient_color in weather configs. sky reflection should match the skybox
dunno about ssr

[high oxide]

what is the best reshade?

[valid lark]

Imo its CHROMA lut and then the twilight reshade on top of it

https://discord.com/channels/912320241713958912/1428109898431991878

[lunar hornet]

your own

[simple fulcrum]

[mild folio]

[valid lark]

perfect

[raven sigil]

Everytime I try to launch Gamma from MO2 It crashes saying Shader compilation failed. Has anyone suggestions?

[rapid magnet]

Badly installed custom shader mods.. If you have custom mods, send your log file to #🔨modded-gamma-support otherwise #🔨base-gamma-support

Shader comp crashes is not related to reshade

[peak onyx]
