Tone Mapping - Let's Make Space Dark Again Mk II

[Paul Bambury]

Fantastic work by all! Horizone and A D for the initial research, and now drkaii for the live preview

 

[Turranius]

Just updated EDProfiler as well. Love these changes =)

 

[drkaii]

Yep, added preset creation and profiling, true to EDProfiler's name

I already have a vive, but I caved in and got a cheap Lenovo Explorer WMR headset too.

Owing to the lcd screens, black is an attrocious dark grey, and he colors are less vivid than on the vive. Which was expected.

Is there a profile that I can use to make the blacks a bit darker?

Hi the LCD's darkest dark is unchangable so probably can't do anything. That being said on EDPROFILER try and start with mine or horizone's and see how they goes. They already make he darks darker

Thanks Drkaii, that's what I'm going to do! Curious of how it will look.

 

[Nelina]

Thanks drkaii, will try it next playtime

Okay, for the Lenovo Explorer, this is just brilliant! Greys of course won‘t become black, but the contrasts are much better than vanilla.

I have one problem though: how do I disable the filter? I found, playing back in my Vive, the colours are to bright and too popping, and I prefer very much the vanilla colors with the Vive. I can‘t seem to disable it.

Just make a separate profile for when you use your Vive, with the Elite Default Filmic Tone Map set

Btw I just found this really dark one, can't test right now. Someone wanna give it a go?

Ah, the Elite Default Filmic tone map is the vanilla? Doh, didn‘t realise that! Hahaha, that‘s just all I needed to know.

Holy cow I just tried it in the Vive Pro...WOW. It actually makes space completely black, but the brights are untouched. It even makes the galactic backdrop and nebulae darker and feel more realistic....I think I found my new way to play
