So I followed the instructions and used the first download link, for some reason everything in my game is outline with a greenish light and everything seems fuzy. What am I doing wrong? If I go to the ReShade site and install using their installer, the game looks normal. If there is something wrong with the download file, how would I go about using this fx after installing ReShade + SweetFX?

Hmm an efx for homeworld? I had no idea one existed. This should be interesting.

Update: The blur effect is not translated in the screenshots, both screenshots look identical. So try it for yourself and see what version you like.

You can also tone down the effect if you like the blur in the same text file a little further down:
Everything is documented so you cannot miss:

/*-----------------------------------------------------------.
/ Chromatic Aberration settings /
'-----------------------------------------------------------*/
#define Chromatic_shift float2(2.5,-0.5) //[-100.0 to 100.0, -100.00 to 100.0] Distance (X,Y) in pixels to shift the color components.
//For a slightly blurred look try fractional values (.5) between two pixels.
#define Chromatic_strength 0.75 //Adjust the strength of the effect.

It looks very good in the single player campaign too.

@Koopak

Don't be shy or scared to change the values in the said file.

When you change the values in the txt file I mentioned in previous post and save it, the effect is immediately noticeable ingame, so if you alt-tab out of game, change a value in the SweetFX_Settings.txt, save it with a text editor like notepad (although I recommend notepad ++) it will be changed in game on the fly.

Alt-tabbing back in game should make screenshots here a redundant overkill. The mod is small enough even for ppl with a low bandwith. The screenshots are identical to the ones above,minus the blurred effect which is what ppl, and myself have been complaining about.

Can you update this with comparison screenshots?
S. Gordon Mar 2, 2015 @ 4:43pm 
Ok for all of you who like the effect, but want to get rid of the burry feeling of myopia, open the SweetFX_Settings.txt file (in the sweet fx folder) with a text editor and set the following line from this:

#define USE_CA 1

to this:

#define USE_CA 0

I ran this with vanilla homeworld 2 and it works fine also. Gives a nice dark mood to it if you like that sort of thing. Hope this helps.

Too blurry, i feel like i have myopia.

@Mr Freud

Well i do have an MSI laptop, why would afterburner make any difference?
S. Gordon Mar 2, 2015 @ 3:11pm 
I like the atmosphere it gives you ingame... it resembles this movie on youtube a bit:

However, I must concur with The Doctor here. If you could get rid of the blurry effect and keep the atmospherics at the same time, this would be a great mod and a real keeper. No pun intended here.

Good work, it's a rough diamond, polish it and I am sure a lot of people will use and download it.

Worked out of the box for me so no CTD issues.
Sorileus Mar 2, 2015 @ 11:08am 
Well I got it to work Once, but thats it every other time its failed, so I donno wth is causing it to not work at this point >.<'
Sorileus Mar 2, 2015 @ 10:38am 
Just Figured out what was Maybe causing me to get a blackscreen while tring to get this to work, Raptr!, could have swore I had that overlay disabled >.>' lolz
ZizZazZuz Mar 2, 2015 @ 10:29am 
I don't see the notes on the compatability page. How does it run with Homeworld Remastered? Campaigns and multiplayer.
Sorileus Mar 2, 2015 @ 10:25am 
That's the odd thing, I closed out of everything that has an overlay or disabled it *steam* and my MSI Afterburners OSD isn't even enabled, might this have a similar issue like Warframe where you have to start the game up 1st with out fraps for example and Then once the games loaded up run fraps ? In warframe fraps would actually crash the game unless it was start after logging in lolz, ganna go try this out lolz.
The Professor Mar 2, 2015 @ 6:07am 
Liking it, but the Chromatic Aberration is too much imho: the pixel shifting causes a sideways blur in-game, that both looks a little funny, but more importantly distorts the edges of the UI overlay of ships in-game (the diamonds and triangles that identify squadrons and ships in the view window against the background).

Thid distortion of those shapes makes them appear a few pixels to the side of where they actually are, meaning you often end up trying to click on ship icons to the side of where they actually are in the game, meaning you miss and have poor visual feedback.

have you tried reunpacking files?
Sorileus Mar 1, 2015 @ 10:11pm 
This also for some reason doesn't even work with HW2:R O.O I am at a loss now as to wtf is causing it not to run.
Sorileus Mar 1, 2015 @ 9:56pm 
Doesn't work with HW1 Remastered for some odd reason :/ may want to look into it >.< been fidling with is for awhile now :/
Mr.Freud  [author] Feb 28, 2015 @ 12:43pm 
Don't know. Maybe you running software like MSI afterburner?
Brig. Gen. Kelly D. Ripper Feb 28, 2015 @ 5:54am 
Ive found the mod to be crashing HW2RM straight away on launch, not even getting to the gearbox logo
OHM Feb 28, 2015 @ 4:16am 
Brilliant, I've been looking for this!

I couldn't figure out how to get SweetFx to work, thanks for saving me the headache!
omg I didn't know SFx was 2.0 already...
Andy_Pipkin Feb 28, 2015 @ 1:07am 
Ok thx, fair enough.
Anubis Feb 27, 2015 @ 9:13pm 
唯一?
Mr.Freud  [author] Feb 27, 2015 @ 3:47pm 
No, to enable the mod you have to download and unpack files manualy.
Andy_Pipkin Feb 27, 2015 @ 2:54pm 
You say I dont need to subscribe...but what if I do, will it still work like any game with workshop support?
I like to use Steam as my mod-manager, without having to go into my files.
Chilled Legumes Feb 26, 2015 @ 5:14pm 
Holy cow, screenshots look gorgeous. Definitely subbing and installing this :D:
Mr.Freud  [author] Feb 26, 2015 @ 4:22pm 
Glad you fixed it ) Cmon guys, show your screens :)
Raiden_chino Feb 26, 2015 @ 4:17pm 
I did that twice.
But now I decided to redownload the mod and not change anything until it's installed (I think I changed a few stuff before copying to the folder) and now it works perfectly.
Thanks for the support!
Mr.Freud  [author] Feb 26, 2015 @ 4:09pm 
Definatly something's wrong. Have you tried reunpacking the files back into the folder?
Raiden_chino Feb 26, 2015 @ 4:01pm 
OK, maybe I'm doing something wrong, but the game has this strong orange look, specially in the menu (it even change the colors of the menu itself and yes, I turned off UI effects) even if I turn off every effect in SweetFX it doesn't go away D:
That's what I wanted to change, but now I don't know if it's a feature or I did something wrong.
Dazven Feb 26, 2015 @ 3:21pm 
Chromatic Aberration was it, thanks. Being on Windows 8 I can't thank ya enough for this(Never knew about reshade until today), I missed sweetFX and it is a pain to get it working properly on 8.
Baleur Feb 26, 2015 @ 3:10pm 
Cool, really didnt know about Reshade. Time to update my other games SweetFX packages :)
OpenGL games here i come!
Mr.Freud  [author] Feb 26, 2015 @ 2:48pm 
Not sure what blur effect you mean. Try disabling FXAA. Also try disabling/tweaking Chromatic Aberration.
Dazven Feb 26, 2015 @ 2:33pm 
I really like the look of it, but what is the setting for the blur? Maybe I just need time to adjust, but it is way different from what I'm used to and I rather like the other effects.
Mr.Freud  [author] Feb 26, 2015 @ 2:08pm 
ZizZazZuz Feb 26, 2015 @ 2:04pm 
Heck yes, reshade.me has arrived! What are the odds that this will work with both?
Mr.Freud  [author] Feb 26, 2015 @ 12:40pm 
Turn Off /tweak Vibrance. It's the main effect for adjusting colors. Tonemap and Curves make the image darker.
Raiden_chino Feb 26, 2015 @ 12:26pm 
Nice! is working right now, but... Is there anyway to keep the original colors? I turned off Tonemap and Curves, but the new colors remain the same.
