C Cliff Underside You can mitigate or even completely eliminate the ghosting effect by findind the right X and Y TC Offset values in the HW Hacks for your resolution.

And yes, one could argue that the art direction, colour pallete etc (visuals as you said) were superior in the original, but you can't possibly say its graphics are technically better. 🤷‍♂️

Dang it Markie... that's genius. The wiki even has the exact variables, I'm an idiot for having missed it all this time. Now I'm gonna have to redo all my screenshots, but it's worth it. And yeah the remake has objectively better graphics, I just think the final result as a whole is always more important than things like total polygon count or texture resolution. It's not the tools but the vision of the artist.

Well, I buggered something up massively. I installed another handful of mods into Fallout 4 and went to fire it up to test things when everything froze solid. Apparently some settings I selected in Steam reverted themselves at some point and the game decided to update itself. It started reinstalling itself while it was running ??? which lead to a hard crash. I restarted the PC once I was sure it wasn't going to restart itself and the SSD all my Fallout 4 mods and game files are on is just messed up and needed to be reformatted. I have about 70% of my stuff backed up on my external Porn Dumpster, but there were several, possibly dozens of mods on there that have long since disappeared from MDB, the Nexus, and a couple more nefarious places (they make some really weird shit, but they also make good texture replacers and know the game files really well) that weren't backed up, like the giant Halo mod that had the armor I've always used. I had well over 400 mods running repacked into various combinations and a bunch of manually installed textures (157 GB of mods total) and it's all just a mess now. I can't even remember where I got some of them :messenger_grinning_sweat: I've been adding mods to this game for 4 years without a single issue, alas I flew too close to the sun and my wings have been burned away. The chances of me being able to use the save files I've been using for all this time are about zero since there are so many missing mods.

Apparently the big important update that pushed itself through was another paid Creation Club piece of shit (they still haven't fixed the PhysX/RTX card garbage that broke the weapon debris and jetpack flame effects).

The newest ENB update for the game has some options to tune subsurface scattering so I've got another effect to play with. I've hit two major snags though already.

- I have the texture streaming bug, where random textures remain as ultra-low quality and never refresh. I've spent three hours now trying to figure out how I fixed it last time. Once my 11GB of Vram was used up, I'd have other sources pitch in, and regardless of how many things I had on the screen all the textures would display correctly. I put it to the test by placing every item in the game in front of the camera. I was getting about 2 fps on a 2080ti, but every texture loaded in. I can't remember what I changed to make it work though

- My other issue is that the 250GB SSD I'm using is already full, I may have gotten greedy when I went Mod shopping :messenger_grinning_sweat:

I'd comment on the sheer amount of graffiti in whatever city HFS Heat is in, but after playing Pokémon go and realising that 90% of Pokestops are graffiti, I've come to the realisation that there are wall-size murals an almost every building downtown

All that artwork on the streets in NFS Heat is really nice, i like your shots Cosmic Smash Cosmic Smash .

On a sidenote, what's up with the road and environment textures? They often look low resolution or just bad. Not only in Heat but in Payback as well. NFS 2015 textures looked much better, both in terms of resolution and shading.

And let's not even talk about Heat and Payback still looking less realistic and impressive than NFS 2015 in general. I understand that 2015 was always at night and raining but still, that game is from 2015 and Heat is from 2019, we're the end of the generation so it should look better. Hell, i think The Crew 2 or even TC Wild Run look better than these two NFS games in a way. I'd say this series had the worst downgrade this generation.

Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit (2010) + Reshade

49222732997_7aa5f744c9_o_d.png


After countless hours, final version of my Reshade preset. I'm finally satisfied, not too much contrast or darkness, even at nighttime. The game looks more realistic than some more recent racing games at times :messenger_grinning:

I will NOT tweak Reshade in this game EVER again, i'm DONE. At least i hope so lol.

I'll share it on the SweetFX database sometime.
