ReShade Framework Released (5102.04.28.1120)

Only one and a half week after the prior big release, here is the next update on the ReShade framework. Many of your requests have been take into consideration for this one!

Download this ReShade Framework Release from the download section of this website or HERE

As requested::

• AL control of the HeatHaze shader can now ignore depth buffer values (under "AL ADAPTATION PARAMETERS" in the GemFX_settings.cfg)
• Improvements to the adaptation algorithm (hopefully now with a little less compile time)
• Added TiltShift effect (based on my GEMFX implementation)
• Added TuningPalette shader which allows use color palettes (e.g. from Quake) or color maps (as used for ENB) with plenty of values to play around with

Further changes::

• Little improvement to the UI-Mask algorithm
• Many fixes for bugs introduced in the previous release

Enjoy and leave comments, impressions, pictures and videos as usual

//As for last time, a preset for GTA V you can use as a foundation for creating your own can be found HERE

As promised

0.18.1 the very good there are more fps optimized


sorry bad english .......espagnol

Thanks a bunch for the update, nice to see Tiltshift back, and the TuningPalette seems awesome.

Could not get ColorPalette (TuningPalette) to work in any games.
I enable it but it has no effect.
EDIT: Made it work, had to change the square size to 16x16

I have a question i can get the sweetfx+reshade to work with no problem. Copy over the sweetfx_setting.txt file in the sweetfx folder.
In the first version of the framework all i did was rename sweetfx_setting.tx to sweetfx_setting.cfg and it worked.

in the new version 18x and 18.1 something as change i can't get it to work and i get errors and it don't work.



Also if i don;t change the files it works but i want to use the same setting i was using in sweetfx.

Can someone tell me what i am doing wrong.

Thanks for your hard work.

#define TuningPaletteEffect 1 //[0 or 1] 0: ColorPalette; 1: ColorMap

Having this set to 1 is a huge hit to the shader init. on my end.
Setting it to 0 however works super fast in comparison.
Set to 1 it's nearly #Ambient_Light speed (which I NEED )

The SweetFX configuration files might differ plus the framework uses namespaces which needs also a file for cleaning up after each suite. I recommend to check the values you use in your configuration file and change the ones from the framework configuration file accordingly.

I guess you mean the compile time at the start takes longer. Using the ColorMap effect activates the algorithm that retrieves the overall image brightness. This same algorithm is used for the adaptation shader of AL, HeatHaze, Bloom,... However, it will only calculate image brightness once so you have no additional impact if you use the ambient light shader with adaptation already

Been meaning to make a post thanking you LuciferHawk for the work on the UI masking. Fantastic stuff

Also a request... since some UIs change over time (thinking bringup the character screen in Pillars of Eternity atm), can we get to a stage where the shader code can recognise which mask to apply based on what's on screen? Lets say there are two masks, and we have a full frame in memory, being able to automatically apply the most similar mask to the frame?

Thanks, there are yet some bugs with dx9 that I have to figure out (it seems to work different, which it should not in ReShade).

About your request, I thought quiet some time about constant mask changes but unfortunately there are many problems you will run into::
- creating a mask with some tolerance takes some time and would not apply instantly
- comparing two entire images (even estimates) for each frame is costly (especially for compilation)
- you would need to run the algorithm(s) the entire time instead of only once like now

If you have UI changes that will change a -lets say- 10 min on screen UI to another at least 10 min on screen UI, I suggest to just reset the mask you have in memory (which is already possible on pressing a key). With the current method you will not automatically identify a in-game menu cause usually you cannot move around while having it open. The helper works best for static UI - elements that are open during gameplay

Lets hope we get some sort of UI-By-Pass in the binaries sooner or later!
