  Frequently Asked Questions

  
  

  Will this boost my performance?

  I can't say for sure. This mod is not intended to be an optimization mod.
  
  

  Is this compatible with the Lower Shadow Map Mod?

  No. Both mods modify the post processor file and thus conflict with each other.
  
  

  Can you make this a Mod Override mod?

  No, the files I modified for this aren't supported.
  
  

  How do I install this?

  Follow the instructions in the Official Payday 2 Modding Guide:

[Mr Pyro]

looks brilliant, great work!

[Peneke]

Awesome! Can you please upload it to dropbox or another server? LBG download rate is super slow for me.

[Sandman332/Docholiday332]

To bad can't get the blured looking contours/outlines with this mod. :(

[Dave The Ripper]

Dam looks pretty amazing and it works with Lower Shadow Map (I dont know how that affect this mod) but for me it worked" and all looks better with both mods

[Nousentre]

Going to try this with LSmM. May I be blessed to run this without any difficulty.

Edit: Can confirm that not only does this mod make the game look superb, I'm attaining an additional 8-10 FPS alongside the Lower Shadow Maps Mod. I noticed no conflicts. As a heister who could barely reach 30 FPS with decent settings, this is just essential. Many thanks Zdann.

For my wasnt no crashes or something like that

[Burnt Toast]

If possible, could you create a version that only includes the camera?

[Hawk]

Would this conflict at all with the GEM for PD2?

[Zalgrodhal]

is it affected to all maps ? Some video preview would be cool too, with before/after split screen.

MAJOR bug: It disables screen flashing when damaged. I would overlook it if there weren't skills tied to reducing this.

Addtionally, it seems to disable flashbang effects too.

So, <effect name="color_matrix"> makes manu rendering and <effect name="default"> <!-- FXAA --> makes blurs?
Your tweak pointed me in the right direction, thanks.

Sadly disabling Anti-aliasing makes GEM[gem.codeusa.net] work not that well.
Also, if I do editing core\textures\cg_matrix.texture or core\textures\cg_he.texture I could change mian menu color grading? (Without editing post_processor)
Edit: isn't working.

Great, and I am unsure as to how to remove the settings and files that GEM installs...

Not sure about flashbangs, but confirmed to disable hit feedback (except for sound). It makes keeping track of your damage and if you're getting hit a lot harder, because you're focusing on the GAME, not your HUD. This needs to be fixed right away.

I'll be looking into this, thanks for the reports! I'd refrain from using the mod at the moment until I fix these problems.
