Sun not blinding with DS on

[uri_ba]

I've been flying with HDR on for a long time now, mainly because I like how the sun is blinding you when you look into it.

 

However with differed shading this does not happen, which is very disappointing. I thought the whole purpose was to improve visual fidelity.

 

I've tried to remove the metashaders folder, just in case, but I just mad it worst :| as with lighting is now too harsh and all wrong. (it was better after the upgrade, I deleted the entire folder from "Saved game" initially).

 

any suggestions?

Both screenshots were taken with lens flare off.

Yes it will add bloom to the sun, but no, I have no 6 pedal Iris nor multiple lens elements to create internal refractions... Not to mention, each eye has a separate reflection.. it's twice the akward....

 

Heck I have actual lenses for my camera with less lens flare.

Suggestion:

any way to get a "Glare" lens option?

 

exactly same as "Flare" but without the aperture reflection BS.

i.e make light sources bloom with loss of contrast. it would be better suited for VR (IMHO)
