SweetFX Shader Suite release and discussion thread

can you give the confige you use to try it?

 

sidspyker

thanx man..really appreciate it..if u did any upgrade on ur settings
let us know..

Ninja

best wishez for ur next presets..i really like ur COD BO2 preset ..i love this game man
MW2+BO+MW3 was **** for me..didnt injoy them ..but BO2 was hell yea the real deal
but i really wished they changed little bit and gameplay like walking and running

any presets for Bioshock 2 and I AM ALIVE?

 

I have a simple question...How capture screen with fxaa enable?

Msi afterburner and Fraps dont work...

 

Do you mean screenshots or videos?

Screenshots press Print Screen key in a game with SweetFX, it gets saved in the game folder.

 

any sweet settings for hitman abs. ?

 

I speak about Screenshots.

With SweetFX print screen key, FXAA is not apply in the shots.

 

config settings?

 

confing please ?

 

can you please post your planetside 2 settings? your screenshots look amazing

 

Hi im new to this sweetFX but ive been reading on here for a few days and ive seen some awsome work on a few of the games but 1 game im looking for some settings for is euro truck simulator 2 as any of you got any settings u would kindly share

 

Thank You very much and get better soon.

 

Hitman Absolution dosne need any fix
but need little bit sharp and deep colors

this's the best bro

Injoy

 

ask Xanvast , he posted some screenshots but not the preset

 

Can someone tell me why when i saturate colors (using tonemap or vibrance) grey colors always turn into blue. Is this a bug or its normal? Btw, theres a way to fix this?

Cheers.

oh bro thats good for begining , thanks

 

Quite surprisingly, here's an answer from Duncan:

Which leads to your question:

I would too highly appreciate some step-by-step guide to tweak it wisely.

its because the grey you see isn't balanced in R G B
for example a light grey will be 6e6e6e or 110 110 110
the one you see will have a little more in blue than in red and green


so i suppose you could do a
#define RGB_Gamma float3(1.000, 1.000, 0.850)
to reduce 15% of blue in midtone
but if it's a darker grey you will have to remove less in RGB_Gamma and more in RGB_Lift
and perhaps need to add 5% red green

 

Tks ninjafada, i will try that.
