SweetFX Shader Suite release and discussion thread #4

@castun: AFAIK, post-processing features such SweetFX works fine on Nvidia cards through RadeonPRO.

 

I have used RadeonPro on multiple Nvidia cards and drivers. Even on my 780TI SLI, RadeonPro works.

This is the first time/game where I am unable to get SweetFX at all and I use WIN8.1 64-bit. Usually one of eFX or RadeonPro works in some capacity. I've obviously double-checked that I don't have any OSDs on and files in the right places.

 

Nope, it works for Nvidia and Intel too, as it is just using via the DirectX api.

hmm...
Try enable RadeonPro logging funtion, and check what is showing on the logs.

 

Turns out I WAS able to get a screenshot of the glitch/bug with my Film grain texture

Notice how it's not just noise anymore, but actual pixellation (especially around high exposure elements like the light)

Weird, so I tried RadeonPro, and got SweetFX to work (had splitscreen enabled so it was obvious,) but the program is acting really funny, like different settings windows are all flickering. Then it crashed, and SweetFX won't work again.

 

The problem is the main.hlsl file for some people is poorly formatted. I had this problem also.

To fix, you need to go into the Sweetfx\Shaders\ subfolder and find main.hlsl and edit it.

There is a line that says:
#include "SweetFX\Shaders\ChromaticAberrationV2.hlsl"

change it to:
#include "ChromaticAberrationV2.hlsl"

Any other lines that have the SweetFX\Shaders could also be problematic (usually the Explosion and Chromatic ones are like this).

 

Yeah, RadeonPRO in Windows 8 for me is a flickering fest also, sadly there is nothing to do about it since development was abandoned.

About the crash, try to update all necessary libraries and reinstall the program (delete all profiles and possible leftovers, in other words just do a clean install).

In a important note, RadeonPRO is NOT compatible with SFX 1.5, so you will HAVE to use SFX 1.4 in order to make it work.

 

hi
latest sweetfx 1.5.1 for Grid AutoSport and Sniper Elite3 not working
why not working?!!

 

Windows 8.1 is why it's not working.. Refer to this guide here to get your games working, though I make no promises the 1.5.1 setup used here actually works with RadeonPro as it is only setup to work with 1.4, though the creator of the guide and few others claim it works just fine.

 

how come i only have this software installed in italian ? tried almost ten times, different sources, checked my language in google account ...


I ask this because where ever i DL this file from it isn't installed in my language nor in english. I also took the guru3d's mirror

 

Thank you, Sagitarius. I shall try this right away!


EDIT:


IT WORKED!!!!! THANK YOU A LOT!!!!! IT WORKED!!! IT LIVES!!!!!!!!!!

 

Just go to 'Radeon Pro settings' (click on the icon picturing two little cogs). A window will appear. On the left side of said window, choose 'Advanced' and you'll find at the top a menu that will allow you to select the language for the IU.
Hope that helps.

 

Glad it worked

My RadeonPro cannot export the preset file because of some error I can't find a solution for. In the Details it shows this:

Using Win 8.1 x64 + RadeonPro + the file: Boulotaur2024.Injector_CeeJay.dk's.1.5.1.Shader+ChromaticAberrationShader.rar

Anybody know how to solve this?

 

Norton AV thinks the boulotaurs contain a virus!

Hi,

My norton Av thinks there's a virus hiding in the dlls of the Boulotaurs ssweetfx files.. False positive??

Thanks.

 

False positive.

 

this whole not working correctly in windows 8 is bullcrap. wft microsoft

 

I think you means Windows 8.1....

 

Ok, Thx Andromedius i'll give it a try later today
