anyone figured out the hdr settings?

[DeadJericho]

the ui setting is kinda obvious. 150 approx should be sdr - you dont want a bright ui burning in your oled

the other setting is weird though. it only goes up to 500 (i can get way above that on my oled tv)

that guide is useful and ive set the ini file accordingly

but what should the values be? my lg cx oled only goes up to 800nits max. so whats the corresponding hdr brightness setting?

brightness should be calibrated through the Windows 11 app:

so does the game pull the values from the windows 11 hdr calibration app?

otherwise changing that wont do anything to the game.
hdr brightness in the game maxes out at a value of 500. what does 500 equate to in nits?

yes, it says in the tooltips

No you can't. OLED sucks at brightness and full screen you can probably only get 100-200 nits with one. Full screen brightness is more relevant here because that specific setting is essentially the brightness of the screen minus the highlights, so think of it like the SDR baseline slider (the highlights are what matter for HDR, though OLED sucks at those too).

Anyway, regardless though it looks like the HDR setting is broken so it's not your display. I'm testing it and it appears to still show SDR regardless of it's ticked or not.

it seems at some point my system calibration went wrong. it was saying 1499 nits max.
i recalibrated again and it looks ok now.

what have you set the two hdr sliders to? (hdr game brightness, and hdr ui brightness)
i cant remember the defaults.

that's a bug with Windows... it does that sometimes (1500 nits is its default)

Maybe you meant OLED monitors? I don't know what you mean by OLED only gettin 100-200 nits at once, but this is just false. My C1 does 800 and top of the line OLED TVs do 1500 or more. Unless I misunderstood what you meant. Also first time I hear anyone claiming OLED sucks for HDR, which is a weird take, not my experience.

i think that user is referring to fullscreen sustained brightness being only 100-200 brightness.
which is also incorrect. even my years old lg cx does 100% full field at over 200nits in both sdr and hdr

A shame they didn't include HDR black levels slider like the mod did..

[Espresso]

It is mentioned in game menu. Hdr brightness IS NOT your peak brightness. It's the general brightness of the screen....I can only guess something like paper white or grey scale or something....
I've set mine to around 200 though I think I prolly have to raise it...
Peak brightness is grabbed by the game through your widows calibration if done correctly or you can edit it through the renderer ini in the games folder.

Preset 2 rocks btw
