MasterEffect ReBorn official thread

So that means that focus is almost camera itself. There is hardly anything closer to the camera than the focal plane, so almost nothing is blurred significantly in front of the focus plane. Only behind.

I can confirm - DOF_NEARBLURCURVE does nothing. Tested in Fallout 4 only with log depth off. When you tweak the value it just says "already compiled".
Can you please take a look at it?

edit: in Witcher 3 too

edit2:
also AO_FADE_START doesn't do anything right now. AO is instantly cut at AO_FADE_END.

I love the new toys btw. Thanks! AO_BLUR_STEPS is awesome!

Hi Marty,
I have been having issues with mediafire in general i.e. the page never loads .
I was presented with the same issue when downloading reshade, until "crosire" was nice enough to provide me with a mirror link.
Is it possible for you to provide a download link which is not mediafire?

Just wanted to point out that fade start does work with SSGI, but other than that it seems to be broken, you get a very visible cut at ao fade end.

Hi

Would it be possible to include Tiltshift again in the next update?

I noticed it was there in an earlier version of MasterEffect but only DOF is available in 1.1.287 and my dx9 game does not have depth buffer access so tiltshift is the only way I can simulate this kind of effect.

Alternatively if anyone knows how to enable Tiltshift in v1.1.287 or adding it manually without using a depth buffer please let me know. Thanks

I don't add new features to ME anymore, only bugfixes. Any new shaders, improvements will be Framework exclusive. If you use the Framework instead of ME, you have tilt shift.

Everytime I try to use this shader, Reshade gives me Error X3004 Undeclared Identifier "fBorderColor". How do I get it to work with the latest version of Reshade?

Are you possibly using an older config file with newest version?

Sir: I've just started playing with you various AOs within MechWarrior Online, and have noticed all the versions with ether "Raymarch" or "HB" in their names greatly reduce their costs to the GPU when you shift into 3rd person (F3); Is there a way to get the effect to ignore the first 3~5 meters of the image (in a game that can have sight-lines of 8km)?

there are a few settings which will lower the radius/falloff of the effect. #define AO_FADE_START,#define fHBAOSamplingRange every ao i think has a radius setting when all else fails lower your sample counts

StepCount, StepDirections, and TEXSCALE all seem important to GPU load; I should think the fade zone is one more equation to run.

you asked how to lower the radius this post makes no sense to your first question

… Your responses was clearly about addressing performance issues, as was mine.

you asked a question i replied with an answer and then you replied with a statement im so confused , before this gets off track and back to your question did you find a solution

Not at all, I'm afraid: Yeah the GPU loads up, but ether I couldn't find the effect(s), or else they went overboard. I guess there's something about the depth buffer under TXAA2x+MFAA in MW:O that makes it more trouble then it's worth …

Thanks anyways.

I want to use MasterEffect together with ReShade\CustomFX\Deband.h
How can I do that?

txaa cant run with mfaa btw , and no depth effects can run if hardware aa is being ran.On to why mfaa and txaa cant run at the same time they are two different aa types and both are temporal aa thats not saying txaa cant be tuned to take advantage of how mfaa works but its hardware specific and a waste of dev time to do

That is not entirely true in all cases. I use TXAA on GTA V and also my AO (which is obviously depth based).

Great work in LUT function
It works as it should be.
I really like it, and the image you provided in the package for 3d-lut is only 256*16, have tried to use 4096*64 but it messes with color that it shouldn't be, resulting bad color definition, used DispCalGUI version for image.
Isn't there any way you can provide 4096*64 image for editing?
I would be grateful that you provided a high res image

Best Regards

I rarely use LUT feature and only added it by request. I cannot provide any LUT from this size nor will I alter ME code to fit such a LUT, sorry. ME development is stopped, only bugfixes and this is no bugfix.
