What are your settings ParaB ?

Tweaked my settings some more:

8 AM:

12 AM:

6 PM:

Of course brightness especially depends on your screen and its settings.

@ParaB:

Hi,
könnten wir uns mal bei euch im DCS TS treffen? Würde gerne mal etwas mit dir besprechen`?!

JG52Krupi · #4 10-24-2012, 12:21 AM

Nicely done ParaB looks great

Jaws2002 · #5 10-24-2012, 12:48 AM

I think that's way too dark. This was suposed to be a summer map. The sun should set at least two hours after that 6PM shot.
Take one shot exactly at sunset, see if you can see anything.

GrandSurf · #6 10-24-2012, 07:02 AM

Here my TONEMAP settings and some shots... (only reduced from 1080)

Code:

*------------------------------------------------------------------------------
						TONEMAP
------------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
#define Gamma 1.20
#define Exposure 0.00
#define Saturation -0.70 // use negative values for less saturation. 
#define BlueShift 0.05 // Higher = more blue in image.
#define Bleach 0.10 // Bleach bypass, higher = stronger effect
#define Defog 0.055 // Strength of Lens Colors.
#define FogColor float4(0.00, 0.70, 0.00, 0.90) //Lens-style color filters for Blue, Red, Yellow, White.

Para, something in your settings is reducing the spastic tree shadows by about 50%

For some reason i am not able to get the Injector activated anymore.
I got it running last may to test the FXaa. Clodo got reinstalled in the meantime and i wanted to test the colour tones now, but it doiesnt seem to get activated.
I extracted the folders "Dx09-OGL" into the installtion folder of Clodo (means the root with the lauchner inside).
Aswell I treid to extract the contetn of the DX09 folder into the root, as the other folders are empty.

Anyway, where did u extract what files to?
Am using the HD6970 btw.

Make sure you're using the 'injectFxaa' version attached to my first post in this thread. Try copying and pasting the files from the 'DirectX 10' folder to wherever your 'Cliffs Of Dover' .exe is installed. Then make sure your Pause/Break key is working and see if the effects are switching on and off when you press it. Other than that I don't know.
