DCS 2.2.0 tone mapper fix

The post from Cjhizh allows to compensate over brightness of 2.2.0: many thanks!

This looks like this (old image first , then new with tone mapper fix), all game parameters stay the same :

Very strange, it makes things much worse for me. It has the same effect as if I dragged the gamma slider all the way down. Shadows are even more unnatural now, and it messes up colors even more.

Nice, will try it ASAP. Hope it comes with the next update when it is a improvement! :thumbup:

 

THanks, Chizh

Screenshots look really good!

 

Any chance this can be an additional option added to the graphics tab?

I would assume we end up there, could simply be a test right now.

FYI, using VR this setting in the autoexec.cfg brings down my FPS from 90 to 25 in the start screen! Did not even dare to launch a mission.

GTX 1080Ti, NV driver 388.59, Oculus Home 2 beta.

[schurem]

yup, same for me. The file murdered my VR experience by bringing FPS output to the low 20s. Too bad. I liked what it did for the colours.

Installed the DCS 2.2.0 tone mapper fix: now it is too dark and it took half the fps away

I will remove the tone mapper fix.

 

The flickering and trembling shadows in DCS 2.2.0 are rather annoying...

SkateZilla: thanks for the pictures! Looks exactly like on my end: gamma 2.2 (neutral, middle position) looks darker and more unnatural with the mod than gamma 1.4 without the mod.

It isnt true, big fps drop.

Thanks for the pick up. Chizh

It seems some people are misunderstanding the intention of the mod (correct me if I'm wrong OP).

 

If you want non-crushed shadows (look around you at midday, very few things are actually pitch black - in the sim a LOT of things are) you have to turn up the gamma in game. I'm talking 2.4 or more!

 

But then the game looks too bright, the horizon (for example) is white!!

 

This mod reduces the brightness of the game, so that you can increase the gamma and not introduce those issues with over-brightening.

 

Essentially, with high gamma and the fix applied, you will have less contrast. Yaaay!

[beci43]

Not bad. Just FPS falls back to half ...

[Goa]

i confirm its fps bugged, had to remove it as well.

[M0ltar]

Really excited about this for 2.2. Unfortunately, my game had the FPS issues. My FPS in game fell to 13. Stoked for when this gets fixed as the colors for, as many others have said, are too bright.

[cichlidfan]

I am curious how you did not know this before you released it.

[Koriel]

FPS went in same mission without fix 90-100 fps, with fix around 37/38. So deleted fix

[Chelco]

The same here, massive FPS drop.

 

How do I remove the fix?

 

Thanks!

 

EDIT: Never mind. Fixed it.

Tried in VR, 19 FPS, so removed it.

 

Looks nice though :)
