Qick and DiRT(y) Rally 2.0 Fix -- Losti
  2 / 3    
After reading your last message there was a "PING" in my mind and i know what to do and what all is about: FIRST OF ALL you should ready my instructions ..... The strange shadow behavior is causes by MSAA. I have written in the first post and some posts later: DO ONLY USE CMAA or turn it of.... but DO NOT USE MSAA !!!!! Your game does not render than mine....thats what i was sure and i poved it. No Migoto = fixed all except the shadows like you say. Hence, this is a migoto setting....and this is the automatic mode...The game seems to have its own sterreo rendering mode, thats what i allready have known but i was blind ^^ Using Migoto we will kill some stereorization (only seen for the dust at the moment) .... it was too easy i am stupid i dont have get this earlier. We only have to stereorize the screen depth effects here. I have done this for the fog/dust. I dont want to play this game, hecne ill skip this here. If there is any effect that is screen depth, please HUNT it and post the VS shader here. (VS !!! not PS !!). Than i will do a fix for it <=== if there is something left, may be water splashes or something.... This is the update and my last hands on here ^^ Game looks 3D vision ready now (for that what i have seen). If there are any ScreenDepth effects (except lens flairs) hunt it and post it as i wrote above. DELETE THE OLD FIX (if you do not allready have done this ==> delete the shaderfix folder!!) or use the uninstaller. https://s3.amazonaws.com/losti/QuickAndDiRTyRally2.0_Fix_Losti2.0.rar There is an effect also in 2D that i dont understand. Its some thing over the dust of your car if its damaged. that can be disabled with key "3". I have left it enabled because i dont know what it is for in other situations. I have fixed the depth and this is all OK but the apperiance is unlogic but its also there in 2D ^^ ==> First post updated!

Bingo! That was it Losti. Changed AA to CMAA and shadows fixed with your fix. Apologies for not changing it earlier. I use 3DTVPlay and without high AA it looks very jaggy so I always ramp up AA. Anyway, that was indeed the issue. Shadows kill performance on this game... Even with my setup i7 7700K@4.8 w 1080ti 1280x720 I get dips below 60fps with Shadows. Great job btw. Thanks very much for your help.

Yes even in sli the Performance is not really good. But there are many Options to try to reduce. Often there is a good Performance Report that shows you the Options that will effect much. Only for to have mentioned. Use Version 2.0 not the fixes before. The dust is correct now in 2.0 By the way:AA often cause Problems in 3D and cannot directly be fixed .... this is not a shader like othet effects. If AA is broken we often have to live with. But hey you can disabled the fix and the shadows and have AA :-) Performance Thread: https://www.game-debate.com/news/26623/dirt-rally-2-0-performance-breakdown-and-most-important-graphics-options

Hey Losti, thank you for this wonderful fix. You say it's not done but I think it's 3D-vision-ready. Works perfect. One question: I always have to press the "2"-key one time (for the HUD in game) and the "3"-key one time (to get rid of the weird effect in the smoke) before every race. Is there a possibility to "lock" those values somewhere in a file? I wouldn't need to cycle through the values every time because when I press the 2 and 3 keys one time it's perfect for me... It's not a big problem of course but I'm just asking if there is an easy way to make it perfect for me all the time.

Hence try to play it and please report back. Making the HUD automation is not a problem, I just skipped it because I only have seen a little part of the game and don’t want to play it and don’t know if the fix is ok for all the parts of the game. If you can confirm, let me know. Ill care about the HUD than. This is not a big issue (even if I can’t promise that I can fix the back mirror ^^)

Tried it again and it seems that shadows and some smoke effects are at screen depth. Everything else is fine. But the game would look so much better with shadows on. Is there anything that can be done?

Because the DUST fix was not @ a RegEx, i can make this. //checked. 1. I missed to set the stereo flags in the migoto ini, this causes shadows @ screen depth after driver installation, ill fix this. 2. the dust shaders have changed with the update, ill create a regex for this that will catch it even if the hash will change in the future.

Just released the update @ the blog. Its now fixed completely via RegEx, hence it should also work for upcoming game patches. https://helixmod.blogspot.com/2019/03/dirt-rally-20-3d-visionreadyfix-losti.html Please reade the description refering the Key-Settings (slightly changed) and the settings for the InGameGraphics you HAVE TO USE!!! (or lets say NOT use ^^)

[quote="Superbauch"]Any chance this fix could be used on F1 2018?[/quote] Try it and report back :-) If the regex is matching the game it could work, F1/2018 is also EGO engine. But may be there are more broken effects or the RegEx will ned an adaption. But in general, its EGO engine, it COULD work. But no promise. Just try it......but i think iw will NOT work ^^

So this is how it looks. new screens ... had to disable mblur in .xml. sry... Broken shadows for me ... And as soon as 3DMigoto is used, FPS go down to 20-25. No matter what settings and even with 3DV disabled. (Hey Losti, we are both "wash real germans" ;-P, so maybe we should talk via PM or Messenger...)
