EDProfiler - A New Display Switcher/Robust Settings Profiler/Switcher/Detector!

Make sure audio is set to hmd in settings screen. (Graphics-3d-HMD headphones)

It was that simple. Thanks a lot! I don't know if it coincided with removing EDProfiler from my PC. I'll give it another try now I know what to look for when things go wrong. Cheers!
 
Minor Change

Hello all! First time posting here, so I apologize in advance if I'm doing so in the wrong way.
First of all, the app is great. It has been working perfectly for me since the first time (a few weeks ago). The main use was for logging during exploration, I find it really, really useful for the way it catalogs data. Many thanks for your time and effort!!
Now to the nasty bit of business, I know this is a tiny misshap (I even doubted posting it since how small it may seem) but figured that keeping it silent wasn't much help either. So the thing is, when using quotation marks the app would simply create a bar "/" in it's place and end the log there. Everything typed after the first " will be disregarded. Since the first time I realized this was a problem, the workaround has been using ' as a replacement...I know this is nitpicking, but I have lost some logs due to this and it could happen to someone else.
That is the only bit of constructive criticism I have. Appart form that everything works great, and as I said it is a great handy piece of software, thank you for taking the time.
Fly safe CMDRs! See you all out there.

Thank you! I will look into it!

So Drkaii any news on progress of new version for 3.3 ? Can the community here help your effort in any way?

Hey, not sure really. I haven't got any features planned, there aren't really any new graphical settings in ED after 3.3 (been keeping tabs).

I've noticed now that tone maps no longer apply to the game! Tragedy! Hopefully this will change at some point :(
 
GraphicsConfiguration.xml and GraphicsConfigurationOverride.xml, but if you are thinking what I thinking, it is definitely the game that is blocking out the Tone Map changes. I know this because they still do apply to certain areas, like the loading screen and the system map. We would need to wait and see what makes it to the live game and if necessary start a petition with FD about bringing them back! :)

To be fair, the new colours and tones by FD are really nice, so it would be hard to make a big case for it.

This! And I must admit I had some serious issues reverting the tonemaps to the original vanilla. The filmic one didn't do it entirely as the suns was still WAY too bright.
 
The 'Control Bindings' Button is disabled, and says "Working on this still .." ... this looks ike a fabulous way to backup bindings when theres an update!

Does it work yet, in 3.2, if not please let us know when it does work!

Thanks
Pete
 
Hey Dr. Kai! Question- so you said tone maps don't apply- my concern is that in VR with the new graphics changes, it's soooo bright. Do you mean that we can no longer darker things up at all using the tone maps tab you have in EDProfiler? That would be very bad for VR users :-( Oh also, do the 'extra settings' tab still work? Like changing localdustbrightness, etc.?

You can always turn down the gamma. I did that in the beta, it was really good and I didn't really notice the "bright parts" darkening when I did so. Seems they have adjusted the gamma curve? As for extra settings, these seem to be knocked off one by one as updates come out, so we will have to do some proper tests today and see. Would appreciate some help on that.

Hi, this is indeed working, although it shouldn't be disabled - you must be on a very old version of the program. The message is still there, only just saw it now! But it's been enabled for over a year

I hate to say it, but yeah it's awful right now- even with gamma all the way down, it's like there's an awful flashlight (using Oculus), blacks aren't black, everything is horribly washed out. I rely on your tone maps to make the game beautiful and black and right now without them, it's unplayable for me. I will help you get feedback and anything I can and hopefully return things to their glory! Good luck, what you've done before has been remarkable!

Ok thanks and appreciate your kind words

I've updated EDProfiler doing nothing but incrementing the version and disabling the Tone Map tool :(


Feel free to email community@frontier.co.uk and POLITELY mention that you used that functionality and would appreciate if they could reinstate it. Bear in mind they might have made the production decision to remove it because it won't work (well?) with the new lighting system.

The tone mapping tool has been really useful, especially now I've got an extra bright Odyssey+.
Thanks for your work Dr Kaii, I'll be emailing.
 
So there's no profile to reverse the colour grading effect that Frontier have unilaterally imposed upon every player?
Colour grading is just one more item in the list of changes made during this update that are pushing me away from this game.

Can i have your stuff?

Seriously, keep this thread clean of that crap. There are countless others out there for you to cry in.

Seriously, who made you moderator of this thread?

The original questions stands. Is there a profile that can reverse or reduce the effect of the colour grading?
 
FYI A D has just pmed me (BIG THANKS) with some suggestions about new settings that seem to work that could accomplish the same (or better). I will look into these over the next few weeks and hopefully we will see Tone Maps return soon! Not guaranteed yet, but very hopeful <3

Please do not email Frontier any longer until I've had a chance to check this out.


Zenith answer: Maybe!

Wonderful news!!!
 
Hi,

some graphics options did change, for example bloom is now all the way to ultra but edprofiler goes only to high, also detect settings is throwing an error
posted the details to pm.

The error I think is because if you set bloom to ultra, edp does not have a clue what to do with it, as setting it to high in game, makes the error go away on detecting settings
