EDProfiler - A New Display Switcher/Robust Settings Profiler/Switcher/Detector!
- Thread starter drkaii
- Start date
I have that card (MSI version) and have no issues (unless you count it doubling up as a heater
) The settings I am currently using:HMD Image Quality 1.5 [makes the UI much sharper]
SS 1.0
AA Off [having it on makes the cockpit text blurry]
Model Draw Distance 3 steps to right [need to play with this more as I never notice any difference]
Texture Quality High
Shadows Off [only because they are buggy unless set to Ultra]
Reflections High
Ambient Occlusion Off
Env Quality Medium
FX Quality Low
Material Quality Low
DOF Off
I can tell that ATW is working hard when in the hangar but overall the card copes fairly well in VR. Usually get 90FPS in space.
Indeed and turning down Gamma as much as possible also helps with god-rays as this affects the whole image including station services menu. Oh and and set Bloom to Off.

Actually I found that High was OK (i.e. my ship's shadow when I'm landing at a planetary base actually looks like my ship rather than a weird vague flickering blob). Mind you, going from Medium to High still hits my framerate but I like shadows so I took the hit and downgraded my SS to 0.75 while keeping HMD quality at 1.5).
Yep that was it. Many thanks (and to Dr Kaii too).
Another quick hotfix to 2.2.1.7
1. Fixed the issue when creating a new profile, you get two entries in the profiles list
2. Fixed the message showing "profile saved" when you bring up the overwrite profile dialogue but close without making any change
3. Added a validation in case you pick the wrong ED install location (for the defaults) or the wrong program for the launcher
4. Added a rough auto-detect for the ED Launcher

Where, other than the exe file properties, can the exact version number of EDprofiler be found? Also, it complained my settings file was corrupted, I let it delete it (made a backup) and it recreated the exact same contents (as I inputted my own HUD colors in EDprofiler).
Also, if I click on "VR High" I get "Could not find a part of the path 'd:\steam\SteamApps\Common\Elite Dangerous\Products\FORC-FDEV-D-1002\OptionDefaults\vrhigh.fxcfg'" exception.
My ED is not installed in Steam.
I have shown it where the launcher is and it still happens. It's not critical, just to let you know...

You can't find the exact version without the exe I'm afraid. For the VR High thing, go to your Documents\EDProfiler\Defaults\paths.xml file, delete the path it has for your game install, and then click the VR High button again and locate it.
Make sure you have the latest version so it has the validation happening. Click to check for updates and let it update.

EDProfiler is the latest version as I've just installed it today. Never had it installed before. Does it attempt to autodetect the game path on first run? I ask because I did have and Elite Dangerous folder among the steam games (on drive D: to boot) so it may have found on automatic.
Did the paths.xml edit and it's fine now. Thanks.

Have you tried force closing it and trying again?
Yeah, I did. I uninstalled it and it failed when reinstalling. I managed to install after a boot. The prepraing eventually went away, after several minutes. But it will not launch in my system. At least I can not see it
PM me if you want to keep troubleshooting and errors off the thread edit: cannot see anything in task manager after double clicking icon

Uninstall, go to %localappdata%\apps and rename the folder 2.0 to something else. Also clear any files from temp. Install again from Internet Explorer (not chrome or ff etc). If still not working email me: kaii@dr.com
Thanks doc, that did the trick. BTW, on a different topic... I've tried using your hud colours and several other no20 versions, and while I do like how they look in the hud, I've noticed (at least on the ones I've tried which are generally blues) that objects in space change colours somewhat as well, getting a bit of a brownish-red tint. E.g., orbit lines look orangish with default hud config, and darker brown/red with your config (as well as the other no2o ones); the "clouds" in space also take on a bit this tinting as well.
Have you noticed this? I wouldn't have expected the hud colours to affect anything outside the ship, but it's definitely noticeable.
