    So I've been messing around with reshade on beamng and i've come up with this so far
    beamng reshade.jpg

    This is beamng WITHOUT reshade just for comparison.
    beamng reshadewithout.jpg

    Some effects that I added to beamng using reshade include:
    very nice looking depth of field
    ambient occlusion
    bloom
    lens dirt
    and multiple color grading and tone-mapping effects.

    If enough people want it, I will upload the files and give a brief tutorial of how to install and how to customize the configuration!
    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    INSTALLATION
    1.Download the reshade.zip folder from here: View attachment ReShade 0.18.7 Public Beta.7z
    2.Copy either reshade32.dll or reshade64.dll (depending on what your system uses) and paste it into beamng.drive\bin64 OR beamng.drive\bin32 (depending on what your system uses)
    3.Rename that reshade.dll file to D3D9.dll
    4.Download the MasterEffect.zip from here: View attachment MasterEffect 1.1.287BEAMNGCONFIG CAUSTICCATS.zip
    5.Navigate through the folders until you see 2 files and one folder. The folder name should be MasterEffect and the other 2 files should be named MasterEffect.h and Reshade.fx copy those 2 files and 1 folder into the same place where you copied the reshade.dll file


    BTW THE ONE I UPLOADED IS SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT FROM THE ONE IN THE SCREENSHOT VERY MINOR TWEAKS


    Congratulations on getting it to work on your first try!
    Oh.. wait what's that? it didn't work on the first try? try reading the instructions and the README file included in both the reshade and master effect.zip files, and if you're still stuck just ask in the forum and I will try my best to answer any questions.
    Tutorial on how to customize the config will come a little later :)
    BACKSPACE TO TOGGLE EFFECT
    Also if anyone wants me to make some other presets just try to describe what you want and I'll try my best to make it

    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    ADDED VERSION WITH ONLY DEPTH OF FIELD EFFECTS DUE TO SOME REQUESTS
    View attachment for Sando.zip <--------- download
    TO INSTALL IF YOU ALREADY INSTALLED MY FIRST VERSION:
    1.Replace the mastereffect.h file with the one you added during the installation of the first version.


    -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    So I thought its time I should probably let people know how to customize this, I'm pretty sure people have already figured out. (it's really easy)
    simply open the mastereffect.h file with note pad or notepad++ (I prefer notepad++)
    now you should see under "ENABLE EFFECTS" those are obviously all the effects. now if you scroll past them there will be all the parameters for each effect. But really read the readme in the master effect folder I'm pretty sure it gives you a run down on the basics. ENJOY;)


    NEW MORE SUBTLE CONFIG NAMED "Realism"

    I tried to keep to the same look of beamng with only a few effects, these include:
    A slight "vibrance" boost.
    A slight "color mood" where the color is set to white with a slight touch of blue and yellow giving it a brighter more appealing look IMO.
    Some bloom that's not as crazy as my OG config.
    DPX which semi boosts color and light
    and lastly an edited version of the DoF from my OG config.

    here are some screenies comparing it to both my OG config and without reshade enabled

    DOWNLOAD FOR REALISM
    View attachment REALISM CONFIGS CausticCats.zip
    to install take any of the versions located in the .zip and replace it with the mastereffect.h folder that you already installed and rename it to mastereffect.h.






    Give me suggestions for other presets please I'm really addicted to messing with reshade on games right now.:cool:












    BTW I DID NOT MAKE RESHADE OR MASTER EFFECT I JUST EDITED THEM INTO MY LIKING.

    CREDIT FOR MASTER EFFECT GOES TO: Gilcher Pascal (aka Marty McFly).
    CREDIT FOR RESHADE GOES TO: Crosire.
    And if you are using my config in a video or something please credit me for the config.

    Yes yes yes. I really want it. BeamNG has a lot of potential to look good; I'm glad people are realizing the potential.

    Just seems to be white washed out and a little too bright, tone it down some like an in between. Would look good imo

    You did a great job with the in-game postFX, but this mod is an external injector; it can do things that the in-game postFX can't do.

    i would download this, but I have 3 MB of free disk space. ughhh

    I really like the look of it.
    The only problem is that it makes my FPS go from 80 on Gridmap to 20.

    Sadly, yes.
    I guess my 750 doesn't like all of the stuff that has been added with it.

    Re: Reshade Master Effect (Graphics Enhancer)

    I've done a lot of tweaking to this, while the preset included was great looking, it was a little heavy on the FPS. The DOF looks amazing, but it sucks about 20 FPS from my usual 60.

    I'll post some nice screenies from my tweaked version. This one isn't as... cinematic or good looking but it runs nearly the same as the vanilla game.

    PS. @CausticCats; I really like this mod! I tried to get an ENB working with BeamNG but it didn't, I'm glad I found this.

    If you would like, I could try and make a performance version without as many effects to see if that benefits your fps?
