    Default No HDR (Mod Request)

    I humbly request, nay beg, that a member with more skill than I make a mod that removes the HDR, bloom, glints and reflections from the game.

    I would have begged Mech_Donald but it seems he was last active 5 months ago

    His no hdr mod for Rome 2 was essential for me

    If there is one among you that will rise to the challenge I shall order 1000 white bulls to be sacrificed in your honour.

    Ye I'd like this too but I'm happy with the bloom etc, the darkening of the camera around the units really bothers me though.

    I agree on the reflections, for sure. Some of the metal helmets in the game look downright odd (and a little out of place) due to the weird glint/reflection system going on with them!

    I find the reflections odd too, considering I have them turned off and the helmets still shine like torches, it's a bit strange.

    I turned off all reflections because of the helmets, swords and the spears. Still they got that annoying space reflection.

    I thought I had turned off all the reflections too, but the helmets are still there twinkling like little stars. 'Tis annoying.

    There's a HDR line in the preference.txt, maybe that could do the trick?

    I said this before, but it looks like the units have been bathed in Criso, it looks horrendous.
    Shogun 2, no thanks I will stick with Kingdoms SS.

    So I had a sneaky look on my laptop at work. Preferences.script.txt has this line

    gfx_hdr 0; # gfx_hdr <int>, Set high dynamic range rendering quality #

    Which I take to mean that the hdr setting is on its lowest possible setting, possibly turned off. I assume it is on 0 because I have all the in game settings set to ''off'' or ''max performance'' on my laptop.

    Mech_Donald states in his op here

    Due to the sheer number of new weather lighting files that came with patch 8, i discontinued the developement of the other versions with additional contrast and saturation fixes. It needs a LOT of time to go through all files again and again. Sorry.
    I assume a similar method of modding is required for Attila, namely making adjustments in weather lighting files. Whilst I could rustle up the time to take a stab at it I have absolutely no idea what changes need to be made.
