DESCRIPTION:
This is my personal reshade + user.itx settings, the reshade profile is based
on my user.itx lighting settings.
The Reshade shouldn't eat much into your FPS, it's mostly used for my custom
made LUT, FXAA and Clarity reshade.
Feel free to modify and adapt, please credit me if you do so.
Thanks to the Reshade team.
INSTALLATION:
1) Install Reshade from Reshade.me
When it asks for the game you want to use, choose "xrEngine.exe" inside your
game's "bin" folder.
Let it download all ffects/shaders when prompted even as you may need them in the future.
2) Backup your user.itx inside COC's appdata\ folder
Merge these settings into your user.itx
r2_tonemap_adaptation 5.
r2_tonemap_amount 1.
r2_tonemap_lowlum 0.4
r2_tonemap_middlegray 1.
r2_sun_lumscale 0.8
r2_sun_lumscale_amb 0.4
r2_sun_lumscale_hemi 1.
3) Copy vodka.ini to bin\
Copy lut.png to bin\reshade-shaders\Textures
4) Launch COC and choose the vodka profile after doing the tutorial/initial setup.
5) Hotkeys are SHIFT-F2 (yes it may trigger a bandage) and SCROLL LOCK to toggle reshade.
NOTES:
If you merge my settings then you may want to disable AA in STALKER or disable FXAA in Reshade.
I've tested this with DirectX 10 but should work in DirectX 11.
Looks awesome and gorgeos, confirmed it has a low impact on performance, im running an old r5 240 and core 2 quad and the impact was 7 fps at best! Thanks!
Most welcome, glad you like it :)
You can disable Clarity and FXAA for a small boost but I'd suggest just reducing grass density etc and turning off EAX helps a bit in some cases.
I've been experimenting with nVidia DSR instead of FXAA - looks amazing but does have a FPS hit, but compensating by turning off sun shafts improves the FPS a lot.
Judging by all the other comments my GTX 1050 ti (4GB) combined with an i5-3470 (3.2 GHz) and 8 gigs of ram shouldn't have any problems.
Also does this work on CoC 1.5 with structures redux and Absolute Nature 4?
Phew! Sorry I only saw this now, been so busy with reallife things :(
I'll have to get around to uploading my CoC 1.5 mod, I've taken tons of textures from various STALKER mods and throwing them into my CoC 1.5 install, I'll have to try find time to release it and so on, right now it's a mess.
Yeah will work fine on your 1050ti, I recently got a 1070ti myself so I may work on a higher quality ReShade preset for more modern GPUs but I aim to get the best visuals before the ReShade - mostly use it to spruce things up a bit/colour correction.
For me it's much more darker (using DX11). Colours are darker, mostly blacked.
damn, i really love this, makes everything look more cold, which is a weather that would probably be in the zone most of the time, thanks a lot!
