Looks great, thanks for the Q4 release.

Will soft shadows and or SSAO be released in a later version, or are they left out for some other reason?

Hi, luckily I have both Q4 and a new GTX 460 and I'm itching to test the hardware, where do the assets go?
Thanks

Put the sikkmod folder inside the rar file in to your quake 4 root folder so it would be Quake4/sikkmod

hi sikk

can you upload your config? please

Wow, I haven't played Quake 4 in a long time, and now after seeing that grimy, dark strogg dumping level, I definitely want to play it again (while trying this mod, of course

)

Seriously, I loved that blood-filled waste level. Its atmosphere reminded me so much of fighting zombies in Quake 1.

i cant understand Sikkpin, he posts his mod , but we dont get this quality like at screens...
both mods : of Doom3 and Q4 arent like at screenhsots that he posted

the best way if Sikkpin post the config from screenshots.

well i dunno about what other people are saying but i have a few things to say, everyone knows your sikkmod is the best thing that happened to id tech 4 so im cutting out all the compliments today. lets just move on to the bad.

-when i get hit my screen gets all screwy, not like im having double vision, but more like my view angle took a 180 and my fov changed to 40, only when im getting hit, also the same happens on the first level when the grunt pops through the pipes right into your face, the view gets screwy again. so i wonder if you can fix that.

-when outside like on the second level in quake 4, it gets dark. Really dark. In fact, it gets darker than the darkest nights

-gets too bright in some spots too, like the bloom almost washes out textures in spots, making everything look a lil over the edge glowy, but this only really happens when inside

other than that, i am quite happy with this mod, and love what you did with the color grading system, it really brings a robust quality out in the game that i just love!

I tried it out yesterday but I got a bug. Whenever I turn on an effect, it's shown in a small window on the bottom left of the screen.
I do not use ATI, these are my specs: Windows Vista 64 bits, NVidia - GTX 295, Intel i9 processor, 6GB ram etc..

if you want to have graphics like on screenshots use "r_usecolorgrading 1" with default "HDR" config

I apologize for all of the problems you guys are having. I'll to help the best I can.

@RipOutTheWings:
I set the cvars to default to the settings I use. Remember, don't use r_useBloom with HDR. HDR has it's own bloom solution.

@Alexthegr81 & @BloodRayne:
I had to jump through hoops to get post processes to work correctly with Q4. I had these same scaling issues before I fixed them but since I'm on an Ati now, fixing them for me may have broken them for nVidia cards. Do either of you have access to an Ati card to see if you still have problems? This would be the best way to start and narrow down the root of the problem. Screenshots would also help me see what it's doing exactly. Alexthegr81, if you are using the default HDR values or close to them (especially for lum_min/max variables) and you are not using ldr bloom in conjunction with it, I'm assuming that your problem has to do with scaling as well. If the luminance texture is scaled wrong as it's being shaded you'll get a wrong average scene luminance. BloodRayne, Does turning on two or more effects still cause it to draw in the bottom left corner?

BloodRayne · **Posted:** Mon Aug 02, 2010 5:21 pm

I'll make screenshots for you tonight. I don't have access to an ATI (well I have one lying around but I'm not in the mood to put it into my rig).
