    They looked very bland. I did your directions, and it barely changed anything, am I missing something or what?

    I might need to make that installation vid :) The files from the zip should all be in your Documents\Beamng.drive folder so that that folder contains new folders called Art, Core, Levels, Shaders and also the postfx preset file. If done that way then you can just delete the cache folder called "cache.0.21.2.0" and it should load my stuff next time you start BeamNG. In Beamng, make sure all the postfx stiff is checked in the Options - Graphics menu and then hit the PostFx button and Load Preset, find my preset file andf load it. Should be done now :) Ive deliberately choosen to keep the bright down midday cause ive been getting a ton of complaints about it so the changes should be most visible earleir/later in the day.

    Not sure it looks like it should, change Time Of Day and see if it gets different. Also make sure youve enabled all postfx stuff and reloaded the post fx preset. To be sure, check my comment above this quote to make sure its installed correctly :)

    AL10 Filmic released




    -alittle more filmic (obv) than AL9 :)

    Install:

    1. ALTERNATIVE 1 - Open the Beamng launcher, hit Support Tools, Clear your cache. Dont start Beamng.
    ALTERNATIVE 2 (i do this) - Go to your Documents/Beamng.drive-folder and delete the latest cache-folder, at the moment its called "cache.0.21.2.0". That way you wont loose as much stuff as compared to the Clear Cache-option.

    2. Unzip the folders and the postfxpreset-file from the AL10FILMIC.zip into your Documents/Beamng.drive-folder so that you get the folders called Art, Levels, Shaders and the AL10FILMIC.postfxpreset-file into your Documents/Beamng.drive-folder like this:

    upload_2021-1-7_20-50-22.png

    3. Open Beamng, click Options from the main menu. Make sure you have advanced menus activated to see the POST FX button.

    4. Scroll down so that you see the POSTFX button. Click it. Click 'Load Preset...' and look up the file that was in theAL10FILMIC.zip. should look like this:
    'This PC\Documents\BeamNG.drive\AL10FILMIC.postfxpreset' , that way you also know youve extracted the folders and file correctly.
    * Make sure you activated all the PostFx stuff including light rays, its check boxes are above the POST FX button.

    Done!

    Changelog from AL9 to AL10FILMIC:

    Colors throughout TOD incl night BUT night transition isnt perfect yet
    More stuff which i cant remember

    AL10Filmic, WCUSA, D-Series, Evening should look like this:

    Looks great, especially when paired with Reshade! (first pic with the Vivace in WCUSA is using AL10, rest are AL9 btw)

    Thank you! It reduces fps slightly nowadays, only around 2-5 id say :)









    Playing around with controlling the tonemapper and exposure in a different way:
