code vein toggle hud (gameplay)

- description

Code vein a well lit game alas slightly a bit too much

of the 'lets sucker punch you from precarious ledges' school

of game play, but never the less still engaging.

This tweak allows you to toggle the hud through:

Key=XB_X hud off

Key=XB_A hud on

Key=XB_START hud on

These buttons have been selected as a form of auto

on / off however if you want something different see

further tweaking below.

- install

Copy the contents of the zip file to the install folder of code vein, the folder which

contains CodeVein-Win64-Shipping.exe. (code vein\CodeVein\Binaries\Win64)

- optional install

If you do not like using unverified dll's you can download 3dmigoto from

https://github.com/bo3b/3Dmigoto/releases

download version 1. 3. 16 and place the following dlls in the install dir of code vein

d3d11.dll (64bit)

d3dcompiler_46.dll

then copy ShaderCache and ShaderFixes from the zip file and the d3dx.ini

to the same dir aka folder.

!note: if you choose to use the d3dx.ini contained in the github package

make sure to set (line 248):

the default setting is:

which sets 3dmigoto to a debug mode.

- verify

After running the game the folder ShaderFixes should contain the .bin versions:

29666d32512b8309-ps_replace.bin

4f489b9956bd3e30-ps_replace.bin

645fbe441f81610c-ps_replace.bin

29666d32512b8309-ps_replace.txt

4f489b9956bd3e30-ps_replace.txt

645fbe441f81610c-ps_replace.txt

This means that the file(s) .txt have been compiled by 3dmigoto (d3d11.dll)

- tested

Tested with version 1. 01. 86038 of code vein on win 7 / nvidia 1050gtx ti

See screenshot for settings game.

- performance

No performance impact measured.

- further tweaking

If you like you can compare the modified shader, ShaderCache contains

the original shader, to alter values.

There are two shaders that have been modified for toggling (see comment in file):

// toggle hud with button or key

// toggle text companion name with button or key

if you do not want map transparency remove:

4f489b9956bd3e30-ps_replace.txt

// decrease opacity map more transparent map right top corner

or if you want the map to toggle add:

float4 iniParams = IniParams. Load(0);

if (iniParams.x == 1) {discard;}

float4 r0,r1,r2,r3;

uint4 bitmask, uiDest;

float4 fDest;

(see other shaders for example)
