Hi guys. I'm planning to release new version in next days as fast as possible. I did a lot of optimizations of screen space ambient occlusions and indirect lighting, many parameters for it's performance optimizations and now it look nice and performance is amazing, so this effect will be the most common for all future versions as it was developed at first time in my mod. If something wil not be done in this version, i'll do in the next one after New Year. Be patient.

Good luck!

SSAO at high framerates? I can't wait!

[Hunter1942]

I can't wait for the next version. It looks really awseome!

 

I am currently running 1.0.0.4 and it keeps crashing my game, so I'll have to wait.

 

Edit:

 

Nevermind, it is running now. I had done something else that screwed the game up, so I reverted those changes and my game looks great! I can't wait for the performance improvements you are getting ready for the next release!

I actually had put some new car models in the game at the same time I put the ENB Series files in. I had though at first that it was the ENB Series causing the crash, so I removed the files, but it still occurred. I finally thought back to what else I could have done, and figured it was the cars. I restored my backup of the file before I changed anything and the game loaded up again, with the ENB Series files in place as well.

 

One crash that does occur with the ENB Series on my computer is when I change the graphics settings while in game.

[P1ch3]

I'm wondering how to remove the reflection in Windshield only.

I don't know wicht line modify in enbseries.ini to remove this effect.

 

Thanks to Reply.

Hey guys,

 

I'm having trouble getting this to work. Upon starting GTA, it says GTA has stopped working and closes the program. I'm on version 1.0.4, with Windows 7 x64.

 

I've got a q6600 at 3.6ghz, radeon 5850 at 925/1150, etc.

 

I've set the resolution in the ini file to my native resolution, 1680 x 1050, but no luck. What am I missing?

 

Thanks

 

EDIT: I tried disabling my MSI Afterburner, and everything worked fine. Not sure why though...because now I don't have my video card overclocked for GTA =(

Btw, this is on a HD4670 512MB. Runs fine in 1280x1024, at default settings. Of course FPS dropped, but its still playable.

 

EDIT: sry too big pics

[corvettelover]

runs great for me... only thing is it is wayy to exagerated.

 

is there anyway to just enable the better car reflections and the better non-pixely shadows?

Well, like i said those are the default settings

[ikt]

Damn, those settings reallly need a tweak.

[physx20]

exactly which settings are you on about, GTAIV, or ENBSERIES

[LocutusH]

Of course enbseries, what else.

[physx20]

I wish borus could give us some explaination on wht each n every command in enbseries.ini does, cause i dont want to waste 3 hours in experimenting and ending up frying my card

You can't fry your card unless you use specific tools that are designed to fry your card. Or you have very bad cooling.

 

My settings now are f*cked up, so i need to get the normal enbseries.ini file again.

why did u change something?

 

I agree , that why i am using version 0.76b because the other ones just drop my framerate too much.

[Symbiote]

Sweet jesus, I guess the Environment Mod conflicts with this because my game is horribly bright. It's like staring straight into the sun. And I can't figure out how to fix it!

 

@robi29: Xfire, GTA4, and ENB all work together for me, however in-game Xfire makes GTA4 crash. Even if it's disabled, every time I open Xfire I have to go into Options and enable 'Xfire in-game' then disable it again.

enable originalpostprocessing

[Symbiote]

Well thanks but that didn't really fix it. Turning down AmbientSunMultiplier and AmbientSkyMultiplier helped but it still looked pretty strange. I don't have the patience to open and close GTA4 another 10 times, so sadly I'll just use the original reflections ENB until kriller or someone else can figure out the right config parameters to go with the Environment Mod.

Wait for the new Environment mod to be released, kriller said he would work on it to be compatible with ENB Series. But for now i'll ditch Environment mod and use VisualIV.
