- description
Tomb raider anniversary edition crystal dynamics second outing with Lara
is a bit of a 'best hits' compilation from the older tomb raider series.
The reshade tone map reduces the rather heavy darkening and a
'poor mans form of tessellation' gives the assets (characters, environment, etc)
a bit of relief plus some color tweaking by reducing red and green.
Further disable the in-game AA, this package sets smaa.
The screenshots contain AO (ambient occlusion) this is applied by
a slightly tweaked shader made by Pascal Matthäus aka Euda.
An alternative would be to force ao with nvidia inspector,
of course if you have a nvidia card, flags that work are
0x00000006, 0x00000007 and 0x00000008.
How ever apart from using slightly more gpu power the ao
can disappear when the camera is under certain angles.
Never the less keep in mind ao is generally expensive gpu wise.
update 28/11/2022
- tweaked ao a bit less bleeding (presence with fog, mist, etc)
- reworked tonemap added a bit of fake ambient light (orange)
- reworked sharpening a bit less aggressive
- tested on windows 10 (v1903)
- see v1.1 screenshots for an impression
- install
Copy the contents of the zip file to the install folder of
Tomb raider anniversary edition, the folder which contains tra.exe.
note: for updating to v1.1 do the same.
- optional install
The following instructions are only needed
if you do not like using unverified dll's you can:
download reshade from
https://reshade.me/ (preferably version 4.3)
Then copy the reshade folder plus d3d9.ini and reshade.ini
contained in this package to the install dir of
Tomb raider anniversary edition.
- verify
Press 'F1' in game to toggle reshade shaders on or off
or press 'shift F2' and use reshades gui to toggle
shaders of. Toglling originalbeforesplit and splitscreen_tech
on gives a vertical splitscreen (right side shaders on left
side shaders of)
- tested
Tested with version 1.0 of Tomb raider anniversary edition
on win 7 and windows 10(1903) / nvidia 1050gtx ti and reshade 4.3
- performance
reshade gpu usage (game capped at 60.7 frames) plus fast sync
without - clock 734Mhz gpu usage ~30%
with - clock 974Mhz gpu usage ~46% *
approximately 32% increase (1050gtx ti on win 7)
max gpu: 1784Mhz gpu usage 100%
* AO alone adds roughly 20% gpu usage.
- further tweaking
Press 'shift F2' and use reshades gui to toggle shaders of.
Note the shaders contained in this package are rather
specific mix and matching with other shaders might cause
issues.
