No Option for HDR?

[Hyperplasia]

2080 Ti latest drivers
Asus pg35vq monitor (Yes, had HDR)

So HDR works in every game I have. Yes it's exampled in Win 10. But RDR2 shows me no option for HDR in the Display or Graphics settings. Yes my game is fully updated per steam.

Thoughts? Help?

I think it would make a slight diverence to change from vulcan to dx12?f

You have to have HDR Enabled Manually in Windows Settings i believe, then once you load the game up, go to brightness settings and should have an HDR toggle there.

It's time for windows to get its ♥♥♥♥ together. It's never the same for any HDR content... HDR works beautifully for me in Doom Eternal, but for that to work I need to turn it OFF in windows settings, but on in the game settings.

Just installed RDR2 and didn't see the HDR toggle anywhere. Now when I go into system settings, it won't even let me turn the toggle to ON. It just instantly switches back to off.

man that is tuff, may have to reinstall your graphics driver. A simple way i set up my HDR is i leave my graphics card driver manually set from RGB 8 Bit to 4:2:2 10 Bit and when i need to play an HDR game that requires/ runs better with Windows HDR Toggle ON, than i'll just enable and restart the computer and then untoggle when i'm finished lol.

P.S. When graphics card is set to RGB and the game or windows switches/ toggles HDR on without manually having it set to 4:2:2 10 bit, then Windows/ Graphics Card Driver will automatically switch to 4:2:2 12 Bit which adds additional input lag over 10 bit and colors just don't look right if that makes sense.

I know this is really old, but if anyone lands here looking for an answer.... If you have HDR turned on in windows, and there is still no option, the game has to be ran in fullscreen. HDR option wont come up in windowed borderless.

Seems logical to me, for I believe only an exclusive full screen mode can give you "send all graphical data to that said monitor in high dynamic range (hdr)

HDR is a monitor-wide setting (send data to monitor in hdr mode, or not) and as far as I know not an option for just an application-window or -pane / -layer.

Graphic experts might call me on this one, but I think, this is the case here.
no pun intended

ENABLED HDR in windows works same way as ENABLED VSYNC in NVIDIA PANEL - it gets disabled if you turn on HDR/VSYNC in games as it overrides windows/nvidia panel "on" feature to "off". So both features enabled outside games should be disabled in games.

Thank you for this.
