Grafikmods & Downsampling:
GeDoSaTo by Durante
NVIDIA AA & AO Tipps


-------


Meine GeDoSaTo Settings

Dies sind meine Downsampling Settings, welche mir am besten gefallen bzw. zu meiner Hardware passen. Ihr könnt es gern anschalten und selbst rumtesten. Auch für AO gilt, probiert rum und nutzt das, was euch am besten gefällt. Sollte ihr eine NVIDIA Karte haben, könnt ihr auch HBAO+ nutzen.

Der erste Wert (1080p/1440p) stell immer eure native Auflösung dar, der zweite Wert ist die render resolution von der downsampled werden soll.

WICHTIG: Deaktiviert euer Steam Overlay, da derzeit noch ein Bug existiert und euer Bild weiß wird. Außerdem kann es zum crash von Dark Souls 2 kommen, wenn ihr downsampled und via Alt aus dem Game tabt. Als workaround hier einfach das Game in die native Auflüsung oder windowed Mode stellen und dann raustabn.

Wenn ihr das ingame AA deaktiviert verliert ihr alle Effekt bis auf das Downsampling ansich.

Meine Post/SweetFX Settings:

Beachtet: Das sind meine bisherigen Settings, welche mir subjektiv am besten gefallen. Gerade bei den Sweet/PostFX Settings kann es hier komplett unterschiedliche Geschmäcker geben. Also nur ein Vorschlag von meiner Seite. Auf die Unterschiede von vanilla DS zu postFX DS am besten zusehen, deaktiviert/Aktiviert einfach ingame das AA. Das AA muss aktiviert sein, wenn ihr die Sweet/PostFX Settings nutzen wollt.

Die entsprechende Datei findet ihr unter: GeDoSaTo/assets/post.fx (ihr müsst dazu postprocessing in der .ini aktiviert haben)

Spoiler

// Post processing effect file
// most shader code taken from SweetFX 1.5

// -------------------- Settings -----------------------------------------------

// Set to 1 for ON or 0 for OFF
#define USE_BLOOM 0 // [0 or 1] Bloom : Makes bright lights bleed their light into their surroundings (relatively high performance cost)
#define USE_HDR 0 // [0 or 1] HDR : Not actual HDR - It just tries to mimic an HDR look (relatively high performance cost)
#define USE_LUMASHARPEN 1 // [0 or 1] LumaSharpen
#define USE_VIBRANCE 1 // [0 or 1] Vibrance : Intelligently saturates (or desaturates if you use negative values) the pixels depending on their original saturation.

// Bloom settings
#define BloomThreshold 20.25 // [0.00 to 50.00] Threshold for what is a bright light (that causes bloom) and what isn't.
#define BloomPower 1.446 // [0.00 to 8.00] Strength of the bloom
#define BloomWidth 0.0142 // [0.00 to 1.00] Width of the bloom

// HDR settings
#define HDRPower 1.30 // [0.00 to 8.00] Strangely lowering this makes the image brighter
#define radius2 0.87 // [0.00 to 8.00] Raising this seems to make the effect stronger and also brighter

// LumaSharpen settings
#define sharp_strength 0.14 // [0.10 to 3.00] Strength of the sharpening
#define sharp_clamp 0.035 // [0.00 to 1.00] Limits maximum amount of sharpening a pixel recieves - Default is 0.035
#define pattern 2 // [1|2|3|4] Choose a sample pattern. 1 = Fast, 2 = Normal, 3 = Wider, 4 = Pyramid shaped.

// Vibrance settings
#define Vibrance 0.3 // [-1.00 to 1.00] Intelligently saturates (or desaturates if you use negative values) the pixels depending on their original saturation.
#define Vibrance_RGB_balance float3(0.3, 0.4, 0.5) // [-10.00 to 10.00,-10.00 to 10.00,-10.00 to 10.00] A per channel multiplier to the Vibrance strength so you can give more boost to certain colors over others

Workaround für bekannte Probleme:

-These workarounds are not guaranteed to work for everyone-

1st WORKAROUND
For AMD graphics cards.
- Go to the AMD control center.
- Go to Properties (Digital flat-panel)
- Enable GPU scaling.
- Apply and start the game

For Nvidia graphics cards.
- Open your Nvidia Control Panel
- Go to "Adjust desktop size and position"
- Set "Perform scaling on" to "GPU" // Some people seem to not have the GPU option.
- Apply and start the game

2nd WORKAROUND
- Select Dark Souls 2 in Steam.
- Unplug your HDMI/DVI/VGA Cable
- Hit Enter (this will start the game)
- Plug it back in.
// Using this workaround the game is locked to windowed mode 1280x720
// After setting your resolution and Fullscreen mode in the options menu, restart the game using the same technique. For some people this will allow the game to be played at their desired resolution and in fullscreen mode.
// As a result of this workaround, there will be no sound sent through your HDMI cable.

3rd WORKAROUND
If you are using a multi-screen setup disabling either screen might solve the issue.

4th WORKAROUND
For AMD graphics cards.
- Open Catalyst Control Center, navigate to the Gaming section and select 3D Application Settings.
- Locate section Texture Filtering and turn off Surface Format Optimization.

5th WORKAROUND
- Launch the game.
- When you see white screen press Win+P and select Duplicate.
- The game should launch.
- Press Win+P again ans select Extend.
- Navigate to the video setting, select Windowed to access all available screen resolutions.

Some people have reported that switching their cable to something other than DVI fixes the issue. If it's possible on your graphics card you could try that. Please report back if this worked for you or not

Das bezog sich meines Wissens nach nur auf die retailversion in der UK weil es dort Verpackungsprobleme gab.
Ich warte darauf, dass ich gleich den Installer anwerfen kann, weil ich mit meiner Internetverbindung ungern 8GB laden möchte.
Ich bin unheimlich gespannt und hab mich versucht den letzten Monat so gut wie spoilerfrei zu halten.

 

[Uftherr]

Bald ist der Preload fertig, dann kann ich endlich damit anfangen. Darauf warte ich seit Ewigkeiten!
Zu schade, dass ich es schon fast auswendig kenne

 

[Dominik20]

Bei mir startet das Game nicht so ein Mist

 

[guthufri]

Gott was für eine Kacke immer mit dem Preload, erstmal 10min gedauert bis alles decrypted war und dann musste ich es extra noch auf meine SSD schieben, weil Steam es einfach Blind auf meine HDD installiert hat.

[Neon-Andre]

Wenn mein Englisch doch nur besser wär, ich verstehe leider kaum etwas von den geposteten Links.. Mir ist klar, dass es dabei um Verbesserung der Grafik geht, auch um Mods - gibt es schon welche oder sollen bald welche kommen?

Ich warte schon sehnsüchtig auf meinen Key, ich hoffe G2A schickt ihn endlich mal raus.

 

[guthufri]

HAHAHA! Ich hab gerade angefangen und bevor man noch Klasse auswählt wäre ich fast gestorben. So ein kleines Vieh mit den Fäusten gekillt und dann ist eine Horde von denen auf mich gestürmt und hat mich fast gekillt o_0

 

[Mika911]

Ihr müsst wie beim Vorgänger Länkräder und möglicher weise andere USB-Geräte abschließen,
wenn euer Controller nicht erkannt wird!

 

[Dominik20]

Für alle die Probleme beim Starten des Spiels haben, ihr solltet möglichst nur einen Monitor angeschlossen haben sonst kann es passieren dass das Spiel crasht.

 

[Thunfischsalat]

ich wollte mal fragen wie es Grafiktechnisch aussieht? Hat sich das werten gelohnt und es sieht aus wie das Versprochene auf dem Screenshot?

Ich würde nämlich gerne mal sehen, dass das:



in den schatten gestellt wird.

Was man bisher auf den Konsolen gesehen hat war ja wirklich nicht mehr zeitgemäß

 

[Neon-Andre]

Hat hier vielleicht noch jemand bei g2a.com bestellt und wartet vergeblich auf seinen Key?

Edit: Für die, die auch bei g2a.com bestellt haben: Ich habe mit dem Support gesprochen, die Keys werden zur Mittagszeit in Deutschland versandt.

 

[Uftherr]

@Thunfischsalat
Es sieht genauso aus wie auf der Konsole, nur in höherer Auflösung.
Ich kann nur empfehlen, dieses Pseudoantialiasing im Spiel auszuschalten. Es macht die Texturen nur unschärfer!

Ich habe gestern auch schon überlegt, ob ich um 0.00 uhr wieder aufstehe, um DS2 anzutesten, aber aus dem Alter bin ich raus
Nach der Arbeit geht es dann los. Ich freu mich schon total drauf.

 

[maloz]

Jaja qhil, unsere Arbeit hindert uns irgendwie stark am zocken, sei es in EVE, D3 oder nun DS2.

Ich werde heute auch zuschlagen, obwohl ich derzeit noch zig andere Sachen zocke. Aber DS2 ist einfach so ein Pflichtkauf!
Ich habe auch durchgehalten und mir kein Review, Let's Play oder sonst was zu DS2 angeschaut, um mich so wenig wie möglich zu spoilern.
Bin gespannt, ob es auf Anhieb gut mit Maus/Tastatur läuft. Ich besitze mittlerweile einen Xbox wireless Controller, würde aber Maus/Tastatur bevorzugen.

 

[Tobear]

Insbesondere die Spielbarkeit mit Maus/Tastatur würde mich auch brennend interessieren. Wenn also jmd. von euch hierzu Feedback geben könnte, dann wäre ich euch sehr verbunden. ;-)

 

[txcLOL]

Für alle User, wo sich die Hardware langweilt, gibts schon die DS2 Version vom DS-Tool von Durante:

Wird auch in dem pcgamer Post behandelt.
