ScreenEffects Reborn

This mod is my  attemp to recreate from scratch  the functionality of ScreenEffects by quetzilla for OblivonReloaded.  My aim is to keep a relative retrocompatiblity with  ScreenEffets for OBGE allowing mods that targetted it to work out of the box.

This mod allow modders to add to their mods some graphical effects, even when they don't know HLSL shader language.

This mod include:

- The ScreenEffects.esm

- OBGEv2.dll- A DUMMY OBSE plugin that pretend to be the Oblivion Graphic Extender. TO bypass some hardcoded checks is some mods (for example Fearsome Magicka). It is actually the obse_plugin_example stripped down to minimum.

- ScreenEffects.fx   The compiled post processing effect

- ScreenEffects.fx.hlsl  The source of the post processing effect. Needed in case you need to recompile the effect.

Requirements:

Oblivion script extender.

OblivonReloaded v7. 1. 0 or above.  NOTE: The first version doesn't require OblivionReloaded as it doesn't include any effect. Its allow to play SC dependant mods without any graphical effects.

Installation

for OR 9:

Extract the downloaded file into the Oblivion\Data folder

Activate ScreenEffects.esm

Enable Extra Effects with the OR Menu.

In alternative:

In Data\OBSE\Plugins   in OblivionReloaded.config:  Set      <Enabled Value="1" Type="0" Reboot="0" Versioning="11" Info="" />

<ExtraShaders>  <Status>

Installation

for OR 7 and OR 8:

Use the Version 1. 1 under Old Files

Extract the downloaded file into the Oblivion\Data folder

In Data\OBSE\Plugins   in OblivionReloaded.ini:  Set Extra to 1  (Under section)

Activate ScreenEffects.esm

Run the game (loading a savegame). After you can set these settings to 0 again.

You can test some of the features with the old ScreenControls.esp from the Original Screen Effects.

Technical information:

Despite this being a reimplementation from scratch of Screen Effects to achieve retrocompatiblity some thing had to be done similarly.

In the ScreenEffects.esm Container's references had to have the SAME formids (and editorids to consider script recompilation) of the original ones. This is something I actually had to look at the old mod master file.

Effects implementations are pretty standards , so the new shader look similar to the old one.

Also defaults values needed to be equals (They are generally 1 or 0 depending on the effect)

As suggested by GraficaObscura website I'm using a slightly tweaked values for saturation respect to NTSC standard values. These values are similar to the one used on the old screen effect but are more  precise
