It not that easy. These cannot be adjusted directly from user.cfg as they are overridden by ingame settings.

Works for me but maybe i dont even need those in my user.cfg and it would suffice to turn AA off through the options ingame, idk doesnt really matter as long as sweetfx is working. I use the AA from sweetfx. But i also use the files from this thread to make my user.cfg work:

Heres some random screenshots, people should really try SFX:

Don't like it. Looks worse for my taste. The worst thing is, it seems to get more colorful which is horrible tbh. Mechwarrior needs to be dark and dirty.

Then set "#define USE_VIBRANCE 0"

I can achieve the same thing by playing with video / card settings! Intense color, sharp detail... bravo!

[Teralitha]

I added the files to MWO just with the default settings and the game no longer starts.

EDIT: nevermind just read the fix, its working now

Is this doable with nvidia cards? The sharpening effect? Cant find it in my cp, do i need inspector or something for this?

Ah, I tried this a while back (I'd been using SweetFX in GW2) and it didn't work. Thanks for making me aware of the file arrangement!

Addded 'the complete package' file archive to the OP.

[Jman5]

Do you notice any difference in Thermal and Night Vision? This looks so good.

[80sGlamRockSensation David Bowie]

Its amazing what removing that stupid looking film grain effect does.

[Ryvucz]

I like how it looks in some areas, although for immersion reason, some areas should be left smoke choked and poorly visible due to the environmental hazards.

Alpine Peaks and Forest Colony look best with this.

[Redshift2k5]

Tried it. Completely destroyed my framerate.

Would love to see a breakdown of recommended system specs to allow for these settings.

Very High is what I am running

System specs are

8350@ 5.2Ghz
32GB Ram
GTX 680 4GB
SSD's throughout.

I never drop under 100+ fps, but I cap myself at 60 with v-sync.

Did you try it with your settings or the user.cfg from the op? Heres a user.cfg with DOF = off and default high settings instead of very high.

Wow thx for sharing.

Game looks so much better at no performance impact at all.

Just as ENB these shaders show how much impact things like lighting and colors have on the visual quality of a game. In my view this stuff is a lot more important than Resolution, Anti Aliasing or Anisotropy. Can't wait to use it on Skyrim too.

Edit: Oh btw my specs are: AMD Phenom II x6 1055T @2.8 GHz, 2x Radeon HD 5750 in CF mode, 4 GB Ram
Game Settings are all on Medium, AA off. SweetFX has no noticable impact on performance on this.

Got a question: Did you cut that out or is there actually a way to switch off cockpit rendering? I know you can switch off the HUD.

Taken from an Awesome zoomed in 3x (2x works good to with an awesome but my fuzzy dice photobombed it ), Commando works great to (3x).



[edit] found a mando and atlas so i just link em here

[Wintersdark]

Does it work with overlay tools like MSI Afterburner - that do not work with ENBSeries mods? If I understand correctly, this is fundamentally the same thing, right?
