Nice trash there tatui ! xD

[Stryfaar]

EPIC trash tatui! - Don't get it wrong, lol.

 

@TheD94 - Tried removing colormod, but still doesn't mix well. Maybe it really does have a copyright.

Thank you Methodunderg JF-Mir2

I discovered "anim\anim.img" is unused by default. Instead all files from anim.img are identical, placed in gta3.img.

[Ivars]

Today's best shoot, no bump maps, ssao. Looks fantastic for me, I managed to get that quality with playable settings.

I know that too.

Did you also known that stream.ini isnt needed at all too? I mean, you can leave a empty stream.ini without anything in it and SA works. Well it's for me. Does it also work with a empty stream.ini for you?

I always found editing the stream.ini unneeded and only a waste of time cuz the options doesnt change anyway anything

 

ivars, looks good, but only black ground isn't looking good.

Some of options are unused after writing values to memory. List:

memory or devkit_memory - both do the same, it would control streaming memory, but it`s overwritten later by EXE function, doesn`t work in effect. Value given in KB (Kilobytes)

vehicles - equivalent of "Streaming Vehicles" options in SALA, doesn`t work since it`s overwritten by EXE function to static value later

dontbuildpaths - unused

pe_lightchangerate - works, unknown for me

pe_lightingbasecap - used by many unknown function

pe_lightingbasemult - works

pe_leftx, pe_rightx, pe_topy, pe_bottomy - unused, i think it is somehow related to direction of PS2 controller, but as said earlier it`s unused in final gta_sa.exe release.

pe_bRadiosity - we must set byte_C402CE to enable radiosity option.

byte_C402CE is never enabled by default

 

    if ( pe_bRadiosity )   {     if ( !worldLightting )     {       if ( byte_C402CE )       {         v49 = dword_8D5118;         v46 = dword_8D5110;         v45 = dword_8D510C;         v44 = dword_8D5114;       }       else       {         v49 = dword_8D5118;         v46 = dword_8D5110;         v45 = dword_8D510C;         v44 = CurrentTimecycleProperties.m_nCurrentFluffyCloudsBottomAlpha;       }       sub_702080(v44, v45, v46, v49);     }   }

 

 

def_brightness_pal - obvious and used

 

                               if ( !stricmp(v5, "def_brightness_pal") )                                 menu.brightness = atoi(v4);

Yes, some functions work. But most doesnt. I never seen any change in the memory settings... I use always a empty stream.ini with StreamIni Exdenter options only

 

Btw, do you know, what these setting exactly do?

pe_lightchangerate

pe_lightingbasecap

pe_lightingbasemult

As i know they work, because i changed them sometime with other numbers and I see more contrast and so on, but which one is for what? You maybe know?

Those lighting settings may be something good to use for enb series.

Playing around with bump map, reflection and colorcorrection settings.

What do u think about it? Please comment

Your bump map looks good and smooth, and not so grainy if you know what I mean. Probably best bump map setting I saw. Love it. Depth of field looks good, but if i were you I would lower the strenght of DoF a bit. But just a opinion of me, because I rather have smooth DoF than strong ones, and your are a bit between. But still nice

Reflections are looking very nice too. Too bad, there isn't a option to edit the resolution of the reflection by yourself.

You have a good Enb Setting

[GameModder8]

@TheD94 - Thx, man! Nice to know that some people like my work.

I don`t know, perhaps in the future it will get explained when IDB will be more documented.

Awesome settings

Could you pass me your reflection settings, plz?

[TheD94]

Yea, perhaps. Gonna take some time later to check them for myself.

 

GameModder8, Yea, no problem. Your pics aren't looking best, but I see, the enb looks somehow very good. Seems, that they are good gameplay settings you got there. But In my opinion, I don't like reallife-looking enb now somehow at all, beause I know that they aren't playable and they look sh*t in fact when you play with them yourself. They only look on some screenshots good and nothing else. Your settings are looking, like if they are everytime that same, you know? Good looking gameplay settings are best, cinematic settings are bad. But that are just my thinks and my own preferences.

Btw I would lower the strenght of the vignette effect.

[Razurbow]

epic stuff !! keep on

[Jacko427]

@Jacko427 - Lol, you really love that game, don't ya'? Anyway, thanks, oh and by dark, do you mean more like this?

@Razurbow and Jacko427 - Thanks!

@XMakarusX - Download link for the epic clouds please. And what timecyc are you using?

@GameModder8 - I guess it's honesty time, well, I'm not really impressed by your setts before, but now, I'm pretty sure that I'm starting to like 'em. It's a big improvement, if you ask me. BTW, too much DoF.
