Thread: Shogun 2: EVE

    Default Shogun 2: EVE
















    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    Hello everyone! So I decided to take it upon myself to start creating my own "GEM". This mod looks to improve the look of the game while also improving the performance as much as possible. This mod adds several features not included in Shogun 2 like SMAA, Sharpening of textures, Gauss Blur to soften edges and a Different bloom engine. This is currently in VERY early beta Stages and I appreciate ALL feedback. You may realize I am using the Basic GEM model settings script, I just use that as a base, it will be changing in the future. I do give credit to LuciferHawk for giving me the idea to try Shogun. I recently worked on mods for Skyrim, and ENB's so hopefully I can bring that knowledge to the table.

    Regular Install EXE


    If I did everything right it should work, should get an installer archive, just unload that and run through the installer. Im a little new at writing them so bare with me. It should install straight to the directory its supposed to. as soon as that's done just run Shogun!

    Windows 8 install

    This is the windows 8 version of EVE everything but the installation process is the same. To install, just extract straight into your Totalwar: Shogun 2 folders location, where the EXE is located

    ​TURN DISTORTION EFFECTS OFF, unless you want squiggly sperm as someone put it so kindly.


    Things that interfere with the Dll's, so Fraps will stop it from turning on, I believe MSI Afterburner and Xfire will as well, havent tested it yet, really anything that adds an overlay on your game will cause it not to work. Don't be removing files. PLEASE mess with the settings all you want and show me screens with the ones you changed. Im trying to make up another good setting as realistic default is all I have


    The normal installer does not work with Windows 8, use the alternative

    To take a screenshot just press the prtscrn key and it will show up in your Shogun 2 folder as a BMP

    I need screens from other users so Snap away guys!

    I am assuming that since this comes with its own SMAA anti-aliasing we should disable the in-game AA?


    Kudos on making one of these for Shogun II by the way
    Like Neverwinter Nights? Wondering where to go now that the old NWN Vault is gone? Come visit the new one at http://neverwintervault.org/!

    No, Anything that adds an overlay will either cause the mod to not work or the overlay wont work

    I know this is a noob question but does this work with mods that add new units (TROM3)? And does "unit detail" need to be set to Ultra for the effects to show?

    This mod doesnt effect any pack files so almost every mod is compatible, and no, no details need to be changed except turning AA off if you want sweetFX's AA on instead

    Is there any chance of getting this to work with the steam overlay?
