    I had the same issue at first because I copied the new files over the top of a previous installation of SweetFX, once I deleted all the old files/folders it booted fine for me :)

    Have tried it also in Windows 7 64 bit but after EFX and Watch Dogs logos, it crashed on the startup. Too bad since I really like the screenshots you posted there and wanna try it myself.. :(

    Thanks for sharing anyway. Hope one day you can manage to get it working on Win 7. :)

    Hi Maliris,
    I'm sorry for being so late to respond your post.
    I had to setup another extra HDD and installed windows 7 64bit to my PC, just for tested.

    I've already uploaded a new version for Windows 7 64bit (please re-check my first post, I've added some small updates there).
    Before install it, please clean up all files that already come with my first bundle (SweetFX + eFX bundled for Windows 8.1)

    I hope it will run properly in your rig, mate! :)

    Cheers

    Hey, CRUBINO

    I removed the redish aspect thx to your reply thats great!

    Is it the balance of white that is very strong and causes those lines ?
    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    Those "white lines" are annoying to me and could it be linked to this line: USE_CURVES ? I don't know anything about sweetfx ...

    And aslo it is too blinding to me sometimes, like in this one:
    [​IMG]

    Managment of the light/bloom ?

    Its difficult to understand when ENG isn't your mother language. Anyway

    Thank you

    Hi ToyTen,
    I don't have those lines in here.
    Did you try with other presets?
    Just make sure that annoying lines is from my preset or not.

    OR you may decrease this parameter:
    change it to 0.15 or even less?

    I've think my preset now is too bright when combine with TheWorse v0.7
    Especially with bloom. That's why now I'm back to using TheWorse v0.2 (LOL Version).

    Let's see if I can fix that later.
    But for temporary you may using the others preset (Realistic from TheLazy site, or Kop4ever's preset).

    same here too... :)
    I'm sorry my English is not so good, I apologize for that :(

    Hi,
    It might be this combo between the 0.7+1.03+VAAS AND your setting.txt don't know, ill give kop's or TheLazy's (don't have that one, haven't found it yet).

    Do i have to do as you said earlier: opening your settings.txt and paste in there the entire content of Kop's or TheLazy settings.txt ? Just that ?

    Thanks mate, really appreciated :)

    Edit: just reading your Edit: ok ill try 0.15

    Changed define GaussStrength 0.23 to 0.12 and no that's not it.

    It's ok, keeping eyes opened, with time all comes well eventually :)

    Thx and don't forget to enjoy the football WC :D

    Concerning my issue i made some progress by changing those lines comparing to your settings (so that's in my case):

    I still have "my" lines but way less blinding effect.


    /*-----------------------------------------------------------.
    / Bloom settings /
    '-----------------------------------------------------------*/
    #define BloomThreshold 12.50 //[0.00 to 50.00] Threshold for what is a bright light (that causes bloom) and what isn't.
    #define BloomPower 0.001 //[0.000 to 8.000] Strength of the bloom
    #define BloomWidth 0.006 //[0.0000 to 1.0000] Width of the bloom


    /*-----------------------------------------------------------.
    / Gaussian Blur settings /
    '-----------------------------------------------------------*/
    #define GaussEffect 1 //[0|1|2|3] 0 = Blur, 1 = Unsharpmask (expensive), 2 = Bloom, 3 = Sketchy. Default is 2
    #define GaussQuality 2 //[0|1|2|3] Warning: 2 and 3 are expensive. Default is 1
    #define GaussSigma 1 //[1 to 4] The higher the wider blur/bloom is (only effective when Bloom selected)
    #define GaussBloomWarmth 1 //[0|1|2] "Temperature" of the bloom - 0 = neutral, 1 = warm, 2 = hazy/foggy
    #define GaussThreshold 0.99 //[0.00 to 1.00] [DX10/11 only] Threshold for what is a bright light (that causes bloom) and what isn't.
    #define GaussExposure 90.0 //[0.00 to 100.00] [DX10/11 only] Exposure of the effect (the lower the brighter)
    #define GaussStrength 0.01 //[0.00 to 1.00] Amount of effect blended into the final image


    with eFX:

    without it:

    That's ok :) Lets get on with it

    Anyways je ne sais pas...

    The bundle of yours and eFX from Corsire is my favorite at the moment mixed with TW's DoF which i can't go without... at least 0.7 merged with VAAS and Ubi's 1.03.

    Soo much to try xD

    Thx you to sharing this OP

    Edit: With my modifications i get weird effects on dark/black zones of images

    Thank you so much. Got it working now on Windows 7 64 bit. :)
    I just love the "softness feel" you made for some far objects like wall, road and glass on the daylights.

    Here some ss from my computer, using Crubino Sweet FX+The Worse 0.7 mod :

    Nice working mate and I'm glad you made a thread for this. Cheers! :)

    Setting the calibration ingame to 10 while using these lines(compared to my previous modifications(4 posts above) ), it was set to 30 before clearly helps removing the lines i had and also less dark/black areas problems :), keeping your and Corsire's eFX quite as the same.

    /*-----------------------------------------------------------.
    / Bloom settings /
    '-----------------------------------------------------------*/
    #define BloomThreshold 12.50 //[0.00 to 50.00] Threshold for what is a bright light (that causes bloom) and what isn't.
    #define BloomPower 0.010 //[0.000 to 8.000] Strength of the bloom
    #define BloomWidth 0.016 //[0.0000 to 1.0000] Width of the bloom

    /*-----------------------------------------------------------.
    / Gaussian Blur settings /
    '-----------------------------------------------------------*/
    #define GaussEffect 1 //[0|1|2|3] 0 = Blur, 1 = Unsharpmask (expensive), 2 = Bloom, 3 = Sketchy. Default is 2
    #define GaussQuality 2 //[0|1|2|3] Warning: 2 and 3 are expensive. Default is 1
    #define GaussSigma 1 //[1 to 4] The higher the wider blur/bloom is (only effective when Bloom selected)
    #define GaussBloomWarmth 1 //[0|1|2] "Temperature" of the bloom - 0 = neutral, 1 = warm, 2 = hazy/foggy
    #define GaussThreshold 0.75 //[0.00 to 1.00] [DX10/11 only] Threshold for what is a bright light (that causes bloom) and what isn't.
    #define GaussExposure 75.0 //[0.00 to 100.00] [DX10/11 only] Exposure of the effect (the lower the brighter)
    #define GaussStrength 0.01 //[0.00 to 1.00] Amount of effect blended into the final image

    Im trying to resolve those lines issues, which occures when the source of the light is at the border of my screen...

    Less dark/black areas problems too :)

    (If im the only one having theses issues ill stop posting here, not willing to invade/poluate this thread at all

    So windows 7 version is just sweetfx?

    eFX doesn't have anything extra?

    Yes, mate.
    i'm using eFX just as injector/bridge, so SweetFX can work inside Windows 8.1 64bit. All effects actually come from SweetFX suite.

    Cheers
