RealityFilter beta7
This update was a hell of a curveball haha
A little detail changed completely the way the filter was developed
From an improvement to a complete core rework...
Thats why it took a bit more time than expected haha
Ok ok... But what changed ?
Remember that I had to force the ambient v2 off to prevent bugs ?
Now it is forced on for a better look
The filter is now able to use the ambient v2 without any weird bugs
During daytime ( high sun angles ) the look is improved, less clipping and a more " correct " look, but thats not where the biggest differences are...
It gets darker, it is now getting closer to a sunset...
Now the core filter rework gets more noticeable...

Ambient lightning is now much more natural
The sun light is also much more realistic


A completely different look
It´s now night time...
You now have more visibility

Oh and its all adjustable, so you can tune it to your liking

Now we move to more difficult situations
The Achilles' heel of RealityFilter...
The filter is now unrecognizable in these situations
Fog
Take a look

Look how different it looks, so much better !

And the transition to night time during fog is now soo much more realistic

Heavy rain is also reworked
The whole ambience feels much more real and cold almost



Lets talk Performance...
The filter´s script execution time is now up to 200% lower
For those who dont know what it means, dont worry, its more performance haha
Oh, and remember those extra, extra, long loading times after selecting RealityFilter ?
Those 20-30 seconds...
Those are gone now
Loading times now only take 13% of what they used to
Color...
The colorgrading is now much simpler containing just a color corrected file to ensure a more realistic color feeling
It contains the RealityFilter´s recognizable foliage color fix


But this time I collected the specific color code of that annoying and fake green, this way no other colors get changed in the process

No more Fake Ikea plants on Assetto haha
First one is Bloom Sensitivity
It controls, as the name says, how sensible is the bloom
More sensitivity will make " everything bloomy ", less sensitivity will get that thereshold higher
In conjuction with the bloom boost you can tune it to make the game look exactly how you want
I know I said it wouldnt be ready yet...
Truth is that I´ve been working on this feature for the last 5 days straight in hopes it would be ready for you guys by this release
It isnt perfect, yet xd, but it is in a pretty healthy state
Ok Dário, what is it ?
I present to you...
Ultra Photo Mode

This feature works best during day time, even until it gets darker
I dont recommend to use it at night, not yet at least
How does it work ?
In the PP section of Pure there is a new check box at the top, activate it and thats it !
Yep a 1 click thing
1 click and now the photo almost looks edited !
Take a look




Hope you guys liked the surprise !
Beta7 being the first version with this new reworked core will not be as optimized as beta6 right off the bat, so, as always, all the feedback is appreciated
Other thing, Sol now has it´s own separate filter for a better look
This will improve the look of Assetto for the Sol lovers
Also, the supporters list is absolutely giant
Thank you all so much !
