Xarwarz Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 This was tried succesfully with Jedi Academy....Not sure if it works on any other games......Step one is ONLY for OPEN GL GAMES....DIRECT X Games skip step 2 Getting right to it i discovered a way to get JA to work with direct x shaders. The results are stunning when looking in game. Heres how to accomplish this...... 1. Download GLdirect 5--http://sourceforge.net/projects/gldirect/ 2. Download Sweet Fx 1.4--http://www.guru3d.com/files_details/sweetfx_shader_suite_download.html 3. Download Sweet Fx configurator--http://sweetfx.thelazy.net/?p=91 4. My preset for Jedi Academy game--http://sfx.thelazy.net/games/preset/317/ 5. Jedi Academy Forum--http://www.lucasforums.com/showthread.php?t=212110 Install Instructions. OPEN GL ONLY---Unzip all Gldirect the locate the bin folder inside is an opengl32.dll...You need to put this extension into the folder where the games exe is for single player. Now unzip the sweet fx folder copy all contents inside the main folder and paste them into the jedi academy folder with the exe. Finally install the sweet fx configurator as administrator make sure the folder is on your desktop. Once installed you can launch the application from the setup exe. Youll need to have admin right when you launch the application....I just right click compatibility mode and check the run as admin then apply. Now launch the configurator it will be blank at first..u need to go to bottom left and click add game then find the games exe and load it. Now click on add sweet fx at the right top of application. Once thats done you should see the words active next to the games exe you loaded. From here its tweak city you can mess around with the setting to get a look you like. Heres a link to site with preconfig shaders settings----- http://sfx.thelazy.net/games/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heres a link to site with preconfig shaders settings----- http://sfx.thelazy.net/games/ Sorry to bring back old threads, but I was looking to improve AA in KotOR and I found this post yesterday. It is a fail for me, not that I have much experience whit that kind of graphic boosting. I've done it like you said, I used SMAA, FXAA and BLOOM to medium setting. When I ask the SweetFX Configurator to start KotOR, the game tried to launched and then crashed. Maybe I missed something, maybe image of your steps would have helped, I dont really know. here's my old PC specs: Intel® Core2 Quad CPU Q8400@2.67GHz 8Go DDR2 EVGA 896-P3-1171-AR GeForce GTX 275 Superclocked Edition 896MB 448-bit DDR3 Did it worked for you if so, I would like to see the changes in pic or clip please. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LORD SPARTAN Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 If or trying it for Kotor or tsl no working it don't load shaderz I don't get it, I know what shaders are, but I don't understand your answer. But one thing is sure, I had to reinstall the game to be able to play it again. Now what I need is a way to add MSAA and FXAA in KotOR. Also I was looking to add some bloom in the game for ambiance. Can it be done? Have you done it with SweetFX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LORD SPARTAN Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Aww! Crap! I knew it was too good to be true. Sorry for the trouble, I really wish there was something to improve rendering in KotOR. If you know anything about this please show me. Beside your excellent KOTOR 2012 and every other great HD mods, I found no other way to push the graphics.

There is one called qindie gl it works but the kotor interface is blank what i mean is you wont see start or load text etc... in game or out so you have to memorize the ui lay out or print pics or something... https://code.google.com/p/qindie-gl/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
