Depth buffer detection modifications

+ Fable III - Depth Buffer doesn't work properly it has major with problems.
Without "multiple depthstencil replacement buffer," it flickers really bad. But when enabled this problem shows up.

Strange, indeed. Does it really run offline ?

While they provide access to the depth buffer they mess up the shadow map in levels with directional shadows from sunlight, i.e. the shadows map's moving with the viewport. Tried several variations of ingame settings and resolutions together with with multistencil et al but it's always wonky. Might not be noticeable in indoor areas. Anyone encountered similar issues?

Sure. This should be the correct file. drive.google.com/file/d/1c2k57j_VSbn9JpZ...5Pd/view?usp=sharing

Can you check thalixte?

Up

(MXAO is SO important in Human Revolution or you get that totally flat-shading feeling, even using the original - imho really bad - SSAO!)

Unfortunately the new version only made them worse and there were no longer any buffer detection options under the settings menu. I've now reverted to the old version, but the tab entitled Buffer Detection is still nowhere to be found. I'm also missing a large number of options under the MXAO.fx configuration.

Could this have something to do with your modification?

EDIT: upon further investigation I was running Reshade version 3.1.2.72 when I had this tab and my Buffer Detection settings were at Before Clearing / First / 2. I was still seeing glitching and various the various other viewport issues I've been having with the depth buffer but these were subtle enough for my game to be playable. It does seem like the game is decidedly NOT playable using Reshade's default depth buffer clearing settings, since the depth buffer will consistently alternate between failing to be retrieved entirely, and rendering all game geometry inside out and upside down inside the aforementioned 1024x512 window.

I don't know if you've modified your detection methods since you first linked me to this thread but the modified DLL I got out of this thread (before all the links died) was by far the least broken way of doing things I've seen under either Reshade 3 or 4.

I'm currently looking into when exactly I first started having any depth issues under Reshade 2.0.3 and whether it coincides with a GPU driver update, a DX9 update, a major change in game data.....anything, really. Amazing how such a little thing can thoroughly ruin your day-to-day enjoyment of a game you've played weekly for 8 years.
