Having a problem with HDR it seems. Not sure if its the color settings in this mod but everything seems greyed out as if I'm trying to play dx11 and running HDR. Removing the xinput file from FFVII Hook seems to fix it but, preferably, I want to be in Dx12.
Try enabling HDR in windows before u launch, or switching window screen modes. DesiredScreenWidth=3840 bUseDesiredScreenHeight=True DesiredScreenHeight=2160 FullscreenMode=1
Removing the script hook will just disable the engine config, I've hade issues with HDR as well especially recording just try: bUseHDRDisplayOutput=true HDRDisplayOutputNits=2000 r.AllowHDR=1 r.HDR.EnableHDROutput=1 r.MobileHDR=1 r.Tonemapper.EmulateHDR=1 ;Not sure about this u can try deleting 1 Reset Mod - Save by Running the game without the Engine config and Hook dll u can just remove your entire save folder run the game then exit, delete the new save and replace old save folder. 2 toggle enable HDR in windows first then in game and switch your resolution, somehow it re enables HDR.
Also in nvidia control pannel ru using RGB full or YCbCR 444 and did load your monitors color profile into windows?
this is insanely helpful, the black levels in this game were driving me insane. Thank you!
Well that stopped working but I found the most bizarre fix if anyone wants to get HDR running properly. Turn HDR in game, then in another window open up a youtube video, right click on it twice, select picture in picture and have it run ontop of FF7 (you can resize it and put it in the corner, just make sure at least part of the video is covering the game). After hours of research this is the only fix that actually works... wtf
Just wanted to come by and say, I was playing up until Chapter 8 in 1440 res and were getting around 50+ fps. I went for that res because 4K gives me under 40 fps. Then I tried using this mod and was so amazed I can now go for 4K while having 55+ fps while also looking better.
Kudos! Goes to show how certain optimizations make games run better.
Hi, does the "Cinematic UE4 Quality" preset offer better graphics than "Epic Cinematic Quality"? Because after a fast look, the first seems to have better values than the later.
Hi, thanks for this config preset. I'm using "Epic Cinematic Quality" and I notice a lot of shimmering, especially on Tifa's shirt. Playing on 1440p with an RX6800. Any tips for changes? I don't know much about UE4 and there are quite a lot of settings.
That's what i don't get about modders, they're intelligent enough to modify a game but are incapable of actually showing you how to install their mods most of the time. As for if it's working or not i don't know, it just crashes my game at at startup but i don't how to install it properly because his instructions are beyond vague.
I recently got the game due to the steam sale and wanted to look into mods on how I can improve the image quality. The documentation is really not for the average person so I'm taking a pass on this.

Changing the value of "r.MipMapLodBias=-2" to "0" fixed the issue for me.
[/Script/Engine.RendererSettings]
When FF7Hook !:
[SystemSettings]
Impressive btw ;)
OKay, so it's older way to use settings, Hook uses new way.
I have a rtx 4080 with 16gb vram and ryzen 7 5800x3D and Playing at 4K.
i copied and pasted over the”cinematic” engine ini but am still getting bad stutters?
any help would be appreciated :)
