There is no God . . . . Rays

[EIF]

I'm missing the God Ray effect in game and nothing I do in video settings will help. God Rays disappeared from my game long before I ever installed any weather mods or shader patches.

I saw this post : https://www.racedepartment.com/threads/lost-my-god-rays.137216/

and tried changing DEPTH_MASK_THRESHOLD to 0.9991 in various ppfilters but that doesnt work either. I've tried various settings such as turning AA up/off, motion blur etc but nothing will work. Any ideas?

Now I think of it, that was something I noticed as well. Don't use motion blur anywhere, all it does is kill FPS and I never really noticed much difference with it off. It could be a Sol or Shaders patch thing. Raise the issue there, maybe Peter might have an answer.....

I dont use motion blur typically, tried it on just to see if I'd see those lovely god rays again. I dont think it has anything to do with any weather or shader patch either. I cant remember when exactly they disappeared but it was a while ago, long before I used those mods.

AC God Rays were a nice effect and I was puzzled when they first vanished from my game but never got round to trying to fix it.

I'll have a play and see if anything emerges.

All I know is they've never worked even a little bit on triple screens so I've ignored that feature since it was added.

Probably work in vanilla AC, with no Sol and JSGME for mod installation!

I'm afraid that one's as-designed.

... oh., you said "rays."

 

[Peter Boese]

In Sol it's a designed as, because it causes problems in triple screen mode. Just select another filter and set the option "sol modifies godrays" to off with the sol_config app, If you use Sol...

Thanks for that, I could be wrong, but, when I tried that just now, the sky flipped, the clouds looked to do a 360.

They're real!!

I intstalled JBX Settings and Reshade and the accompanying ppfilter that you can download from that page, you want number 5. Open it in notepad and turn off auto exposure.
