Armored Core 6 - HDR Optimized Settings
Added 2023-08-25 16:30:52 +0000 UTC
The game is NOT using/applying Xbox/Playstation HDR Calibration app settings.
The game has a decent HDR implementation providing proper in-game Peak HDR Luminance control in nits value up to 2.000 nits along with additional contrast and saturation controls. There is a problem tho: the corresponding, measured, nits values is usually a bit lower than the one setup in the game (e.g. 1.000 nits in game settings = 850 nits with measurements).
Another annoying thing is that for accessing the in-game HDR settings you have to first start a game mission, then open the in-game Settings menu and go to the following "Adjust Image Quality" section:

If you have an LG OLED and:
> you're using Dynamic Tone Mapping or Dynamic Contrast:
- Set Adjust Brightness slider to: 5
- Set Maximum Brightness slider to: 2.000 (nits; Max)
- Set Adjust Saturation slider to: 5
> you're using HGIG:
- Set Adjust Brightness slider to: 5
- Set Maximum Brightness slider to: 900 (nits) or 1.100 (for G2) or 1.600 (for G3)
- Set Adjust Saturation slider to: 7
If you don't have an LG OLED and:
> you don't have an HGIG option:
- Set Adjust Brightness slider to: 5
- Set Maximum Brightness slider to: 1.000 (nits)
- Set Adjust Saturation slider to: 5
> you're using HGIG:
- Set Maximum Brightness slider to the corresponding real Peak HDR Luminance of your TV in "nits".

2023-08-29 06:58:43 +0000 UTCJust curious why saturation is different for DTM and HGIG?
