    People, did you know how long is a day (24h) in the game?
    I want to ask, how much is real minutes/hours a day in the game (24 hours)?

    Today I tried it every 5 minutes to save a screenshot. And so 16 pictures in 1 hour and 15 minutes.

    Click: http://makeagif.com/i/02hyXz

    I had to go so I was not able to finish by the end of the day IN the game.

    for those of you wanting a fix for the low volume, try this: http://www.ghacks.net/2014/04/02/enable-sound-loudness-equalization-windows/

    I have actually had that problem regardless of which mod I use (or not). It happens for me if I click my mouse anywhere on my desktop while the game is starting up. Not really sure why it happens.

    Could you add the E3 version with MalDo's textures and Yizen's perpective to your first post? I think many would like to test it out.

    I tested your camera view and it is like in the E3 2012 Gameplay Demo! Awesome! Much better than the Far Camera options that you can find here. The best camera oprion so far! Combined with the best Mod!!!

    Also using raj7095 Light DOF! Excelent work!

    I apologize for the off topic question but i'm curious: How is it for you regarding GPU overclocking while playing Watch_Dogs? It seems to me that this particular game is very sensitive to overclocking.

    For me, the game pretty much scaled linearly with gpu overclocking. I got around a 16% performance boost with a 16% overclock from 947mhz to 1100mhz. however the gain wasn't good enough for me to ignore that my r9 290 sounded like a jet engine :p. Surprisingly this game is also extremely cpu overclock sensitive. I overclocked my 2600k from 3.8ghz to 4.7ghz and it became much smoother.

    Mod is good but would be better with theworsts 0.7 bokeh/DoF its a bit intense in this im finding and it compromises gameplay.

    Can you apply your DOF to all cameras? It doesn't work when taking cover. Great DOF regardless!

    Well, I usually run Watch_Dogs at 1110/5400 with my Asus R9 290x and it also sounds like a jet engine, so you're not alone :gape:

    I have tested again over and over all the four atmospheres in different day/night scenarios and I still think E3 Original is the most realistic. Maybe it's my eyes, but I really can't see where the Warm is better than E3. It's probably a matter of taste...

    Sheesh...

    The spamming of images in this thread is getting out of hand.

    No need for the plethora of images. :puke2:

    It's actually not my DOF. I am using Boss's DOF version 1 from TheWorse 0.8. It is only supposed to work while taking cover when your crosshair is moved over your cover. This is done intentionally so that it doesn't interfere with the gameplay. I personally have no clue how to modify those DOF settings.

    Could somebody test the Skin Rendering of Aiden through the TOD and different weather Light Conditions with Lunyahs mod and post results ?

    See my above post with the Generic Render Results of the Different Light Responses over the TOD

    Skin normally changes it's color dynamically over the TOD in Vanilla and even different weather states but it looks like it doesn't anymore with Lunyahas mod i might be wrong and the render states are practically savegame frozen due to TOD weather manipulations and require a new Game Start.

    Btw i posted Vanilla Render results above all the time it was a test of subjective realization of Watch_Dogs Lighting no one seems to have realized that this wasn't Lunayahs Mod output @ all ;)

    I've actually been experiencing this too from day 1. Didn't know if it was just my set-up or if other people were having the same issue. But the sound is very low in this game.

    I actually just logged in to ask if this was just the same DOF from 'The Worse' V8 mod. Guess you just answered my question.

    The DOF transitions for that mod were slower though. I didn't think they reacted as fast, this one seems to work better for me. Maybe it's has to do with this mods since it seems to perform better to begin with compared to TW 0.8 (less drama too). ;)

    I personally don't think it does perform better than MSAA x2 at least from my testing.
    I also find this game can have a big performance difference depending on which AA you choose. So by making SMAA more taxing, some people might actually have to drop their settings to just SMAA to get good frame rates.
    If there was actually a benefit from a SMAA Temporal x2, I am pretty sure UBI or Nvidia would have included it (considering how many other AA techniques are already in the game settings). I really don't think messing with AA has much benefit and in my case (with this mod) MSAA x4 performs fine and looks better and MSAA x2 actually performs better then SMAA Temporal.

    Don't take offense this is just what i'm experiencing. Other than that, it's a great mod. You've done well.
