Some games - like TS - profit from different effects at different daytimes or maps. Some games and game engines won't work with certain adjustments. You can 'live-edit' for example the 'MasterEffect.h' file (written in plain English) activate effects by simply turning a 0 into a 1 and change values of all the available effects to your liking. you can adjust them to your liking! It takes only a little bit of editing and you can make the game look all kinds of ways.įrom slightly enhancing existing graphic effects (Depth of Field, Ambient Occlusion?), to all sorts of crazy things (like Chromatic Aberration, old CRT monitor look and scanlines included!) The beauty of these home-baked shaders and libraries is. Now, I know, what some of you are thinking.

It has a great depth effect, making the trains look like the train models you all seem to still keep around (or even play with?!).Īnother way is to use the aforementioned post-processing graphic effects. But for 3D you need either glasses or a 3D monitor anyway). You should try it out! (My old screenshots on the earlier forum pages are now gone forever. Train Simulator works really well with stereoscopic 3D. One way, I like to play Train Simulator, is using Nvidia's 3D driver. In short - graphics are important, in my opinion. On the other side, there are moments of - may I say - beauty to be found!* When you get a pre-baked sunset to look at, starring at that evening sky, those non-volumetric clouds passing majestically and slowly by, while you are passing a red signal, or a train - with lights on - passes you, and you see some surprising shader effects by that lightsource, that flashed by you(r train), getting some passes too. Yet there is only so much you can do with these 2D texture maps for trees, or the un-bump-mapped gravel on the ground, etc, etc. The improvements in the last iterrations helped a lot on the rendering side of things.

On one side, the base code is old - really old (look at those static water maps). sorry, Dovetail's 'Train Simulator' games are a two-headed snake, in that regard. Among video game players, we get called a dirty name, I won't repeat. Our modern graphic cards may still get to sweat when they have to do brute-force 3x3 SSAA or equal tasks, like rendering in 4K and preferably in >60FPS, but otherwise, there is plenty of power to do additional number crunching.

Ever since I first layed hands on Boris' ENB Series home-baked D3D9.dll's - and later on SweetFX came around - I am a firm believer in Post-Processing visual effects.
