Advanced Tweaking Pt. Conclusion. Sweet. FX Re. Shade. Sweet. FX is a free tool which can apply a range of post processing shader effects to games. This ranges from the shader based antialiasing methods of FXAA and SMAA, to image sharpening, color tone and saturation changes, and other special effects. In short it provides you with the ability to alter image quality in virtually any game with minimal performance impact. Configuring Sweet. FX can seem quite complex at first, so the simplest method of using Sweet. FX is to download the free Sweet. FX Configurator Tool, a graphical interface tool which also includes the latest stable version of Sweet. FX. Download and extract the Sweet. FX Configurator files, and launch Sweet. FXconfig. exe. The best way for me to demonstrate how to use the Sweet. FX Configurator, and the types of changes possible with it, is to run through an example of applying Sweet. FX to a game. In this example, I will use the Steam version of The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim Note Before we begin, we must disable any program that provides a screen overlayon screen display, such as Fraps, Dxtory, or Afterburner, as they will prevent Sweet. FX effects from being implemented in a game. To implement Sweet. FX in a game, several files need to be copied into the directory where the games primary executable resides. Sweet. FX Configurator automates this process, but needs to know the path to the game executable. So we click the Add New Game button, navigate to C Program Files x. SteamSteam. AppscommonSkyrim, select TESV. Open. 2. With TESV Skyrim highlighted in the game list, we can now select which effects to apply in the Categories pane. The most popular effects are already ticked in the list, so well untick them all to start with, and implement them indvidually, describing each. AE8C3C73A71DD87BFBCB15997152A15C5210ADDC/' alt='Texture Filtering Driver Controlled Lod Bias' title='Texture Filtering Driver Controlled Lod Bias' />First well tick the SMAA Anti aliasing box, and in the Category details pane at the bottom of the Configurator, we can highlight each component of SMAA and adjust its value in the box just beneath to alter the appearance of SMAA. In this case, well leave these at their defaults, and click the Save New Config button to save this change. We can now launch Skyrim to view the SMAA, implemented by Sweet. FX automatically, and we can toggle Sweet. FX effects on or off during the game using the SCRLK key by default. This key binding can be reconfigured if you wish by clicking the Sweet. FX Injector Settings button. SMAA Subpixel Morphological Antialiasing is a very efficient form of shader based Anti aliasing, similar in principle to FXAA covered on page 5, but without the noticeable blurring that FXAA introduces. As the screenshot comparison above shows, SMAA fares quite well against 8x MSAA in Skyrim in terms of smoothing out most jagged lines, most prominently the line of the wall just to the right of the crosshairs. But as an added bonus, it also helps smooth out transparent textures such as foliage, similar to Transparency Anti aliasing covered on page 6. It does all this at a fraction of the performance cost of 8x MSAA. If you want a cheap, effective form of Antialiasing, SMAA is highly recommended. Note that you may have to disable any in game AA for SMAA to work. The next effect well enable in the Sweet. FX Configurator is image sharpening by ticking the Luma. Sharpen box. In the Category details pane underneath, Im going to select the sharpstrength parameter and assign the maximum value of 3. Save New Config button again. Im using the maximum value for sharpening strength so as to give a clearer distinction between when its off and when its on in the screenshot comparison provided above. In practice, lower values are recommended since too high a value makes the game world look unnaturally brittle, for want of a better description. Luma. Sharpen in Sweet. FX does not actually add more detail to textures, like the various Texture Filtering settings See page 7, or raising in game Texture detail settings do Luma. Canada Velcro Flag Patch'>Canada Velcro Flag Patch. Sharpen is a form of edge enhancement that artificially increases edge contrast. However, if used in moderation it can increase the perception of clarity, making the game world seem more crisp and detailed. Finally, well increase color saturation by ticking the Vibrance box in the Sweet. FX Configurator, and in the Category details pane underneath, Im going to select the Vibrance parameter and assign the maximum value of 1. Save New Config button. The screenshot comparison above demonstrates the richer colors when Vibrance is in effect, though just how rich the colors look on your screen also depends on your monitor and its settings. Having configured the effects, Sweet. FX Configurator can now be closed it doesnt need to run in the background for Sweet. FX effects to be applied. As long as you click the Save New Config button each time you make a change, the settings are stored and automatically implemented via the files placed in the games directory when we added a new game in Step 1 above. To remove Sweet. FX effects from a game, highlight the games name in the Game list in Sweet. FX Configurator and click the Remove Sweet. FX button. Unfortunately, a major drawback of the current stable version of Sweet. FX included with the Sweet. FX Configurator is that it wont work under all circumstances, particularly in newer Direct. X 1. 01. 1 or 6. This makes the instructions above more suitable for older DX9 based games. If youre uncertain about whether Sweet. FX will work in a certain game on your system, refer to the Sweet. FX Settings Database. The database provides user feedback as well as custom user Sweet. FX configurations Presets you can download as. TXT files, and import using the Sweet. FX Configurator by clicking the Save Load Configuration button, then clicking Import Preset. Luckily, a newer Beta version of Sweet. FX is out, with support for Open. GL, Direct. X 1. 01. It comes as part of a new, more comprehensive post processing injector called Re. Shade. Using Re. Shade is more complex than using the Sweet. FX Configurator, but the underlying method is much the same. Update The instructions further below refer to an older version of Re. Shade. A newer version is now available which comes with a configuration utility to make things easier. How To Crack Rar Files. See this Fallout 4 AA Tweaks page for a detailed example of how to use the new Re. Shade to implement changes on a 6. Direct. X 1. 1 game. Download the Re. Shade Sweet. FX package from the link above, extract the contents, and launch the Re. Shade Setup. exe file. Once again well run through an example to illustrate how to configure various effects using Re. Shade. In this example, I will use the UPlay version of Watch Dogs 1. Upon launching the Re. Shade Setup. exe file, a Welcome window appears. Here we need to click the Select Game button, and find the main game executable. So we navigate to the C Program Files x. UbisoftUbisoft Game LaunchergamesWatchDogsbin directory, select watchdogs. Open. Re. Shade will attempt to detect the games API, but in this case it fails to do so, so I manually select the Direct. D 1. 01. 1 option, as I know Watch Dogs is a Direct. X 1. 1 game. If in doubt, a web search should clarify a games API. With the game executable and API selected, the Select Game button turns into a Run Watch. Dogs button. Clicking this button launches Watch Dogs, but first a Re.
