#5677 closed enhancement

Sharpening Pass — at Version 6

Description (last modified by OptimusShepard)

The new antialiasing implementation FXAA makes the game a little bit blurry. Therefor a sharpening pass should be implemented. The level of sharpen could be selectable by slider.

AMD has released a free implementation on git, which seems to be the current best one, which is available. https://github.com/GPUOpen-Effects/FidelityFX/tree/master/FFX_CAS

It has been already ported to reshade. https://wccftech.com/amd-fidelityfx-cas-got-ported-to-reshade/

In the following I made some screenshots with reshade. The settings are CAS=off, CAS=0.0, CAS=0.3, CAS=0.5 and CAS=1.0. Good noticable on the detailed tree shadows, and textures of bulding and ground.

No CAS Non CAS

0.0 CAS 0.0 CAS

0.3 CAS 0.3 CAS

0.5 CAS 0.5 CAS

1.0 CAS 1.0 CAS

It'd be better to use PNG or any other lossless image formats. Because sharpness difference isn't so visible because of JPG artefacts.

Also you don't need the whole screenshot, since even the whole screenshot doesn't show all possible cases. You might use cropped image, like 512x512 or 256x256 to show more noticeable details.

Replying to Vladislav Belov:

Ok, I will replace them. My current png are much to big.
