Horizons Horizons Detail FX

I think there's way to much sharpening going on in some of the screenshots, it makes the edges look very grainy and not blended properly.

Anyway, here's a tweak I use for higher res nebula (and more nebula visible at once) :)

<High>
<LocalisationName>$QUALITY_HIGH;</LocalisationName>
<NebulasCount>30</NebulasCount>
<NebulasInBackgroundCount>50</NebulasInBackgroundCount>
<LowResNebulasCount>25</LowResNebulasCount>
<HighResNebulasCount>6</HighResNebulasCount>
<LowResNebulaDimensions>64</LowResNebulaDimensions>
<HighResNebulaDimensions>256</HighResNebulaDimensions>
<LowResSamplesCount>40</LowResSamplesCount>
<HighResSamplesCount>160</HighResSamplesCount>
<MilkyWayInstancesCount>16000</MilkyWayInstancesCount>
<LocalDustBrightness>0.12</LocalDustBrightness>
<MilkywayInstancesBrightness>1.1</MilkywayInstancesBrightness>
<MilkywayInstancesSize>1.0</MilkywayInstancesSize>
<MilkyWayInstancesOffscreenRTEnabled>false</MilkyWayInstancesOffscreenRTEnabled>
<StarInstanceCount>4000</StarInstanceCount>
</High>

It makes quite a huge difference to how good they look. I've not tested it close up to a nebula yet, but it seems to make no noticeable difference to performance for me so far.

This is why I uploaded v2.0 :) It reduces the sharpening considerably as well as a few other tweaks. As far as I can tell only one screenshot posted using v2.0 on this thread and thats on the original post near top :)

The galaxy mod in the graphicsconfiguration is almost identical to what I use! Have you posted it before? I think that's where I got the base for it from?

Hi!
I have some problem with this. It starts, but does not log on. But if I delete it, it works. But I don't now why?! :/

I have the same problem on Windows7 64 pro. The game launches and I can see the effect on the splash screen and menu, but the client fails to log in. Removing the dll fixes that problem, but of course reshade doesn't work, then. Has a solution been found?

Which version are you installing? I just noticed yet another error on my part, the v2.0 doesn't contain the correct .dll so not surprising, I will get that sorted right now ;p

Cool. :) It was the latest version, downloaded a couple of days ago.

Ok, download updated :) Sorry about that... Really should have held off a couple of days to ensure everything was correct! Never mind :)

If that still fails to work, try renaming the included dxgi.dll to d3d11.dll and try again.

Hi Malek, and thanks for your efforts!

I just tried the new version, and the same problem occurred. So I tried to rename the dll, and that made no difference. The client still fails to communicate with the authentication server. Which is pretty weird.

Very weird! What gfx card are you using? And have you had any form of reshade installed and working?

Just installed this - scroll lock doesnt do anything and nothing has changed in game?

If scroll Lock doesn't show any noticeable difference in your picture the preset probably hasn't loaded.

When ED starts to load do you see the following at the top left of the screen?

Your log looks fine, I get the same {WARN} in mine and obviously mine works :)

Can you try renaming the .dll to ReShade64.dll, and try one last time please?

Thanks for the suggestion, Malek. There’s no connection problem, but Reshade isn’t loaded.

There’s a version of the dll in C:\Windows\SysWOW64\ and I tried copying it to the Elite folder, but the result was the same. No connection problem, but no reshading either.

Is there something else I need to install besides your zip file? I dont see that screen when ED launches. Is ED Horizons in a different folder?

It seems bizarre, be interesting to know whats causing the issue, but I am out of ideas, other than trying to install other reshade presents and see if you can get them to work, such as EDFX. https://www.dropbox.com/s/wuf9zn2kdvemv05/EDFX2316.zip?dl=0

Looking at that there is another .dll file option d3d9.dll. Maybe thats the one!

Like VictoriaG says Horizons in installed in that location. If the files are placed in the wrong location the preset will not load.

Yeah - doh was in wrong folder :(

Anyway the fps hit is when this is enabled is insane. My game went from playable in 4k to complete slideshow when the tweaks are enabled so I guess my rig isnt able to run it - despite using a GTX 970 :(

Its ok in 1080p but on a 42 inch TV take it from me it looks absolutely awful with these tweaks. Maybe better on a monitor. I dont get anything like the results you have here. I mean its like extreme contrast, i can see a white outline around everything, all the colours are blurred out...could be my TV thats doing that however.

Shame, it looked so cool!
