Hmm... I was going on information provided by the PCGAMINGWIKI site. I hope I uploaded the right save file.

Thalixte, please let me know if that’s the proper save file.

"Cheat Engine to give a wider FOV"

Can this be done with many games?

It depends on what you're trying to do. There are plenty of ways to increase the Field of View (FOV) in games although it varies from game to game. Some games simply require you to edit a .ini file. Cheat Engine is a very powerful tool that allows for all sorts of things within games. I only used it here because apparently that's the only way to increase the FOV for this game because I'm also using Flawless Widescreen to scale the image to fit my 21:9 (3440x1440) aspect ratio monitor. If you're simply referring to playing it in a 21:9 aspect ratio then I suppose you could add letterbox black bars but you'd probably still need to use Cheat Engine. Otherwise it'll crop off the lower half of Leon's body.

No, problem, i will. Stay tuned Be aware that i am very busy those days, so it will take some times, but i wil work on it as soon as i can.

No rush. You've already done more than enough. Other than those few remaining areas with no depth buffer it works flawlessly for me. My dream was to some day play RE4 and the Bioshock games with AO and DoF, which you have so graciously provided, so even if you stopped development now I'd be happy with where it's at. I will donate to you later tonight because to me that's certainly worth my money.

BTW, I'll double check whether or not that is the correct RE4 game save tonight.

@OtisInf => I reproduced your issue. It happens when I switch adaptative supersampling to off. So, for the depth buffer to work properly in TitanFall 2, you need to enable adaptative supersampling. When i have some time, will investigate the reason why it does not work with adaptative supersampling disables.

PS: thalixte, sorry for being your advocate

Thks to be my advocate But the bug was my fault. In fact, when i released the build 85, i've realized i made a mistake: in this build, I introduced a resetting of some depthstencil instances, as well as the depth_source_table, that keeps track of the number of drawcalls and the number of vertices.
This resetting occurs when the depth buffer settings are changed, or when the frame does not use the clearing buffer method (for instance, when it switches into cinematics, a fix for Vanquish).
In this buid, I resetted the depth_source_table, but not the references of the objects inside it, so when the device was resetted, Reshade entered an infinite loop because all directx9 object references were not released. In dx9, you have to be extra carefull about references count
Moreover, the resetting code was not in the right place.
I corrected it in the next release, but to my surprise, you indicated me that the non fixed release worked better than the fixed one for source engine games.
That's why i try to reproduce it...

Absolutely.

Could it be possible for you to test DXHR without the shadows (in the settings, disable the shadows).

I found that, in DXHRML, the depth buffer works perfectly if i disable the shadows. I guess it has something to do with deferred shadow mapping...

I don't have a folder with that name so it can't be that. Here's where I got my info:

I will tomorrow.

Derp. In was referring to Deus Ex HUman Revolution's save location. Muh bad.

DX9 or DX11?

DX11

You got it, man!

It's the culprit in DXHR(DC)!

Cool Now, it is a pity not to have the shadows when depth buffer is retrieved...

No way to tackle the issue?

In some initial releases of your implementation of RS you can retrieve DB with the shadows enabled, but only partially (some parts with "Third", some others with "Fourth" depending on the scene/level.

Hmmm. The dxd11 implementation has not changed since a long time. This could be the shadow map that were retrieved in the third or fourth clearing pass, but if it was the case, we should retrieve the depth map at the first or second pass...

ah ok. Strange though I'd expect adaptive supersampling == on to cause no depth buffer to be present at all... Anyway, glad it's cleared up.

Maybe it was First/Second, and I remember wrong (probably).
The thing I remember clearly is that some levels/some parts of the same level got MXAO alternatively working.

Ok. On this levels, when you disable shadows, does it work flawlessly ?
