One of the best, if not the only, video I've seen about graphics settings for recording and general gameplay, instead of about how many frames you can squeeze out of it. Definitely gonna be using some of these tips for my own videos!
I'd add the console command cfg_load grading_warm, since it help eliminate the dark circle around character and remove the blue tint. The Natural Reshade (RTGI Option) is also quite a nice choice imo. Color is pleasant, close to real life and light-weight. Personally I'd make my own preset using only quint_regrade (has everything) and Glamarye fast effects (mostly for AO) and a bunch of sharpenings :D
was 😟 going in today or do i you just did that a little little bit i you just don’t want it i you just don’t need it i you just did that a little earlier and and you didn’t want it for a real time 🕰️
@@comradesillyotter1537 Natural Reshade is on Nexus quint_regrade and Glamayre's are already on the shader lists, you just need to create new profile, enable and make changes on in-game reshade menu
1:40 "Mine is at zero because I smooth edges through the reshade menu which I'll share with you later in this video" You didn't share how you smooth edges with the reshade menu later in the video, in fact you never brought up edge smoothing again. I was waiting for you to touch on that again. What reshade settings am I to enable to smooth edges with the reshade menu?
Sorry, I should have been more clear. The presets I use (phr0zac's area X/grim) commonly utilize FXAA which is an option in the ReShade menu. It's less demanding and doesn't muddy up the image too much, which is why it's my preference. If you're having trouble zoning in on what settings you like, I suggest seeing how it's setup in a phr0zac preset as a starting point and go from there.
Thanks for this informative video. But having teased us with mentioning you can disable anti-aliasing, as you smooth edges using the re-shade menu, you never explain how you achieve this. Would you clarify this please? One thing I've found helps performance for me is to turn anisotropic filtering off in game and set this in Nvidia control panel.

>One thing I've found helps performance for me is to turn anisotropic filtering off in game and set this in Nvidia control panel Absolutely do not do this. Disabling AF will make distant textures at shallow angles (e.g. roads) look terrible. AF 16x is like 1-2 fps max on any decent GPU. As far as AA goes, in-game SMAA should be kept on max, but MSAA set to off (it's the general anti-aliasing setting). It's not that MSAA doesn't work, it's just that the performance overhead is terrible and better utilized for higher resolutions with DSR/DLDSR.
does it come with the GAMMA modpack or is it an additional addon? Also does it actually affect grass? Just asking because I was wondering, since grass can be adjusted for height and density, maybe it was never considered foliage in the first place? I have no clue, but if this works then thats awesome.
I have issue with the reshade preset; the button home don't open nothing, i already reinstalled everything and the problem continues can someone help me pls
I'm going to have to figure out what re-shading is because it wasn't well explained. I'm a new Stalker fan, but I WISH you had it great video though no hate just love!
Can you help me, my AtmosGAMMA is not the original one because i unchecked all of the shader option without knowing we actually can turn off it with END button, if you can send me the check shader option i will be grateful
I copied your gfx settings and then used the atmos preset for reshade and it looks like a dumpster. I guess some things have changed since this video was posted...?
you explained almost everything except for the anti aliasing. you said you do it with reshade but ended up not telling how. maybe you could explain? thanks
@@Tpachal yeah i actually found the setting in the reshade menu the same day i was writing the comment. Its just called FXAA or some other variation of anti-aliasing and you can even tweak how intense it is
Can you help me? I just upgraded my CPU and now im getting weird lagspikes/stutters, it is especially apparent when looking and moving my camera next to a campfire, I have no clue why upgrading my CPU would cause this weird issue
@hank6490 I had a similar issue when upgrading recently so you're not alone... Now this is completely based on my specs, my audio seemed to be bugging out my performance, especially around anomalies. In the mod launcher I enabled "turn this on if you stutter" and in the menu before launching (where you enable dx version etc..) I enabled- "prefetch sounds". This worked for me immediately and fixed my stuttering and audio issues around campfires and anomalies. Again, this might not work as I don't know your rig/setup but this was a solution that worked for me. Hope this helps Hank, good luck!
What CPU did you upgrade to? This is an older engine, so it just simply doesn't like some newer hardware. What I've noticed is that big multi-core builds don't jive super well with Anomaly, but anything with faster individual cores seem to run well.
@@brainjackt Home key was not opening the menu for me. But after I updated GAMMA, then it worked. I think my GAMMA installation was a one or two months out of date. Awesome videos anyway, both this and the updated one. Many thanks. I found FXAA, but no TFAA option. Does it need to be downloaded from somewhere?
look up some mic tips or voivee recording tips. its very unpleasant to hear saliva pops and tongue smacks right in your ear. also consider practicing your narration voice if you plan on making more narrated videos, as the low register tends to cause your voice to break or sound crackly. natural breathing pauses and proper pacing also help
Thanks for the tips! I probably won't dive any deeper into this sort of voiceover videos, I just wanted to get something out to share with the people who were asking for it. If I end up doing VO in the future I'll definitely reference your feedback.

I don’t think stalker 2 will be able to even compete with stalker anomaly
i fear that too honestly. gona buy it at release anyway ^^
Thank God you were wrong

How do you bring up the preset menu?
Thank you so much I love your style and music!❤
Could I ask what your mic or headset is? Your voice sounds so natural like I'm in the room with you.
Keep making vids! Great stuff
Hey great video. Would you have any idea why my trees and foliage have blurry edges. The edges on your foliage looks nice and smooth.

@@brainjackt Do you use any specific settings or just default once you enable it?
@@StonyCephalopod Pretty much default. I may disable film grain or enable RadiantGI occasionally, but outside of that I run it how it comes

bro just wake up
meanwhile my FPS is killed running Sun Shadows on low quality lol
its because of atmospheric's SSS settings, they really tank frames
Nice work bro
Where do i get the reshaders the last one you showed that you said you like playing with looked good
Im new to all this so will probably fuck it up
For me, the sun godrays appear out of the ground aswell as out of the sun not sure how to fix it other than keeping the godrays off
The grass in my game looks quit blurry and static, it keeps flickring, can anyone help me ?
Nesesitaba esto, gracias camara.
In Mod organizer you can turn a mod on too where stalkers cant see through foilage
does it come with the GAMMA modpack or is it an additional addon?
Also does it actually affect grass? Just asking because I was wondering, since grass can be adjusted for height and density, maybe it was never considered foliage in the first place? I have no clue, but if this works then thats awesome.
it makes them really stupid in my experience
It also messes with stashes in certain areas
Dose anyone know how to fix the “fatal error” when you try to load in game
I have issue with the reshade preset; the button home don't open nothing, i already reinstalled everything and the problem continues can someone help me pls
Same for me, did you find anything?
don't forget to turn on msi afterburner to show how it burns videocard, reshade is true evil in that cases 🎉
Mind me asking what your setup is?
I'm going to have to figure out what re-shading is because it wasn't well explained. I'm a new Stalker fan, but I WISH you had it great video though no hate just love!

How do you open that menu with the presets? Really want to try out some reshade options

Hi, help please how to open reshade menu in Gamma 2.4.4?😇
Reshade is disabled by default, need to enable it again. Instructions in gamma discord
What button do you press to get into the reshade menu?
press the "home" key to pull it up. also, this video is old and out of date, updated graphics guide here: th-cam.com/video/SIRNAO_XPh4/w-d-xo.html
you explained almost everything except for the anti aliasing. you said you do it with reshade but ended up not telling how. maybe you could explain? thanks
I could be wrong as this is my first time using reshade but I think the presets apply some sort of AA themselves.

@@brainjackt an Ryzen 5 5600, i had an 5 2600x before
You need to disable core 0
Oof, I see your MO is also scrambled. Shame the only way to get it working for me again is to reinstall Gamma...
How do you change the shaders?
Press the 'Home' key.
If you have any installed Shaders.
(GAMMA mod has it by default.)
Are these presets already in the reshape menu?
how do I edit the mods without makin my game unusable lol
How can you open the reshape??
what is ur Gpu and cpu ?
thanks man
Have you changed your ZCP settings at all?
Man needs to start an asmr channel
nice one, thnkx for that, my game looks SO MUCh better now. but stop whispering pls, other than that, good video
