Still Wakes the Deep - HDR Optimized Settings
Added 2024-06-18 14:10:36 +0000 UTC
The game is NOT using/applying Xbox, Playstation or PC HDR Calibration app settings.
The game has a good HDR implementation as, even if it's not leveraging the system HDR Calibration, it actually offers an in-game Peak HDR Luminance slider in nits values which can go up to 10.000 nits along with an additional HDR UI Luminance slider.

If you have an LG OLED and:
> you're using Dynamic Tone Mapping or Dynamic Contrast:
Set HDR Content Brightness slider to: 4.000 (nits)
Set HDR UI Brightness to: 200 nits
> you're using HGIG:
Set HDR Content Brightness slider to: 800 (nits) or 1.000 (for G2/C4) or 1.500 (for G3/G4)
Set HDR UI Brightness to: 200 nits
If you don't have an LG OLED and:
> you don't have an HGIG option:
Set HDR Content Brightness slider to: 1.000 (nits)
Set HDR UI Brightness to: 200 nits
> you're using HGIG:
Set HDR Content Brightness slider to the corresponding real Peak HDR Luminance of your TV in "nits"
Set HDR UI Brightness to: 200 nits
BONUS:
Disable Film Grain & Chromatic Aberration: to much improve picture clarity. But if you want to preserve the '70s movie "style" you can re-enable them
Use Performance Mode on XSX/PS5: for the best smoothness, but notice that graphics will take an hit (especially animations). If you don't mind 30fps, re-enable Graphics Mode.
Enjoy :)

2024-10-21 06:36:44 +0000 UTCShould I just keep gamma at 110 percent even though that seems kinda high for default values no?

2024-10-21 01:02:04 +0000 UTCDefinitely. Personally I've disabled it in this and just use Frame Gen at 120fps for a real/pleasant (and not added) blur

2024-08-06 17:09:30 +0000 UTCConsidering you can exactly configure Peak HDR Luminance in nits: HGIG
