    Man, I'm still wishing someone would look into finding a way to use SweetFX's shaders without process DLL injection.

    Blargh, blargh, wishful thinking, I know...

    Thinking about it some, it should be extremely trivial to run it through the drivers, for example. They're just full-screen shaders, right? They don't need any depth information, any information from previous frames, none of that. Hell, if you just put it in an app that ran the shaders regardless of what's on the screen (windows, the game, or otherwise) it would work just fine, too.

    I'm going to need to do some research...

    warhammer online

    I have a weird issue with an older game warhammer online , the shaders work fine and it makes the game great looking but all the characters and npcs turn solid white and glowing. Any idea on how to fix this , i tried removing some of the shader files but nothing seems to work . I think its an issue with warhammer as enb series and fxaa injectors all cause the same issue as sweet FX .

    Also question asked earlier about Radeon Pro and LAA for swtor , you still have to set LAA to false on the swtor.exe file to get sweetfx to work with it and it causes crashes to desktop after awhile playing it. The only way to get it to work would be to somehow not limit the exe to 2 gigs.

    hi,
    i can't use RadeonPro with FarCry 3...:bang:
    the game crash and i have the last version..1.1.1.0
    why with a lot of people the program works and to me no?
    even Hitman Absolition don't work...

    Its working without problems in Dx9 , i use it that way. It gives a black screen in dx11.

    Here, i posted that before :

    You want me to make it deeper?

    Wanted to do it, but if i do decrease the Gamma more, i lose details, and well i am not pro at this, so i am all ear for recommendations on how to do it:)
     
  17. Do you really have to quote including all the screenshots?

    And Marcel - is it really hard to use 'spoiler' tag at least?

    " Post images no wider than 1024 pixels that link to the full size screenshots instead. If you post a lot you may also consider using the spoiler tag."

    6 shots(RE5) a lot? But ok if i send more than 3 images i add spoiler tag.

    Tom Yum 72

    i must try in DX9. tip for screenshots without hud in FC3. :)Use printscreen and game do screenshot without hud. Screenshot folder is in Documents/Mygames/Far Cry 3

    The in-game print-screen function will not capture sweetfx. It also produces blurrier screenshots.

    Put out a small update to the configurator. It can now import / export presets, and hopefully work better with games that need split install of SweetFX.
