    So, new to BeamNG and the forum. I got everything downloaded, installed properly, and once I re-assigned the hotkey to enable the filters I got it working. I have disabled SSAO as well. I'm really at a loss here. If I turn down the gamma far enough for the sky to not look blown out, then everything else it too dark. I've played with the vibrance settings and others that were recommended as well as removing any mods I had. I have attached a couple of screenshots to illustrate what I'm seeing on my end. I also tried to get the Carkiller mod working, but the Reshade.exe doesn't seem to do anything on my system.

    It is impossible for me to fix that without HDR implemented in the game, as told by the developers. Real life HDR comparison so you get the idea:

    I'm loving to mess around with ReShade in BeamNG...
    that mediator thing has so many options it's easy to get lost.

    But with your presets as a guide and a few tweakings now i have the image i've always wanted :D
    Many, many thanks!:D

    **puts sunglasses on**
    Back to the game :cool:

    Any tips on how to mess with the mediator setups?

    Hey, @cessni my GPU is slowly dying so I had to delete the reshade among other things in Beam, but my issue is now the "Reshade is loading... no reshade found." is stuck in the top left corner and wont go away. You know of a fix?

    You could always try to leave it there but disable all effects so its just doing nothing... :oops:
    It'll still try compiling effects but it'll do so lightning fast as it's compiling nothing. :cool:

    oh, the text doesn't disappear...

    try reinstalling reshade, run it once trying to get the effects to work and see if that also makes the text disappear...
    then disable effects and try again, if it worked...

    as a last option, you could reinstall the game itself, since mods and configs, etc are located elsewhere, there's nothing to lose (except time maybe...)

    if you reinstall the game and the problem remains then I really don't know what to do...

    Understood, thanks cessni. My graphics settings in game show an HDR checkbox though? And I'm familiar with real life HDR from photography actually.

    One thing I do to try to get around it is open up the map editor and fiddle with the values there...

    sunlight, moonlight, ambient light...
    but that's very hacky, can get messy and you need to do it on every map individually...

    also, in the past you had all HDR options in the game instead of on and off
    you can still mess with those settings finding it's file and editing it's values...

    if you have the patience you can get great results...
    still not real HDR, but maybe you can emulate it or something this way...

    Hello, it have been a long time I've been using your preset and, when I've seen a photo of @3DTunes using some kind of 3 strip technicolor process... So I recreated it on the base of your preset... So here's the question : if I post my preset on the forum, will I have to credit you ? And if yes, for what ?
    I let you judge by the pics :

    This mod is amazing, but for first-timers who have spent over 1000 hours playing BeamNG in stock graphics, it's gonna take a little used to process. Meanwhile, I got this pic, my question is, is it supposed to look this washed out?

    No need to credit me, but it'd be kind of you to mention it. I'm glad you did it :)

    Yes, it's a big change. It is intended to look like that, but as you can see in the pictures of the main post, it looks better in certain conditions.
