Sikkpin@Posted: Sat Sep 11, 2010 5:29 pm : For those of you that are experiencing screen flashes, see if you have "r_useSMP" set to 1. If so, turn it off and see if that solves it. Let me know if this works or not.
@vertex007:
The health vision should only be in effect if you are using regenerative health, which means there shouldn't be any health packs. Hmm, I'll have to double check the code.
vertex007@Posted: Sat Sep 11, 2010 9:02 pm : ok, my apologies, it seems all the problems I was experiencing were caused by the SMP command, I had it disabled in my autoexec cfg for the mod but after checking it in the console I discovered that somehow it would autoenable itself upon restarting the game, dunno why, probably because I have a multi core CPU.
after manually disabling it in the console all is good, no more flashes and strage little screes on the corners !
second thing I did was converting that Ashikhmin-Shirley_Lamb shader you recently posted in the D3 HDR thread and after tweaking some values I finally found some quite good settings for HDR.
looks pretty good.
about the regen thing, I didn't enabled it so I think is there anyway, but I am going to try enabling it and see how it plays that way.
either way, thanks so much for your awesome mod.
RipOutTheWings@Posted: Sat Sep 11, 2010 9:41 pm : before everything was normal, but recently had such a problem with textures.

DoomTra1n@Posted: Thu Dec 09, 2010 3:22 pm : Ok, I've downloaded the mod from the link posted in the original post, now what do I do with the folder AND the rar file named src? I know I put the Sikkmod folder into the main Quake 4 folder, but what about the src rar file? do I extract it somewhere? or do I put it along side the mod folder (In, out or around?).
When I can I'll make a video, but believe me, my results are no where near what the posted example screens are.
Sikkpin@Posted: Thu Dec 09, 2010 6:16 pm : The src.rar file is the source code. It's not needed to use the mod.
TRSGM@Posted: Sun Dec 12, 2010 7:55 pm : This just recently occurred to me, but I'd be willing to bet that Raven dicks with the depth ranges when drawing a portal sky, which may lead to the depth weirdery you're seeing. Unfortunately this is probably unsolvable w/o access to things like that, but I thought I'd point this out.

From what I remember dealing with this sort of thing a year or so ago... that's one of the depth effects playing up. try turning off motionblur, depthoffield & colorgrading. That should fix it. But if you want to run those effects, I'm pretty sure you need edgeAA on aswell... also try turning off SSAO.

Yes that's my problem! If I use DOF I see the gun anyway, have a look :

Sikkpin@Posted: Tue Jul 17, 2012 2:53 pm : For some reason, ui_showGun removes the view weapon but then draws the third person weapon. If you want to lower the weapon for screenshots, set g_dragEntity to 1 instead of using ui_showGun. The view weapon will still be there but it won't move with the view so you can essentially "drop" it somewhere out of the way for your screenshot.

Alexthegr81@Posted: Mon Aug 02, 2010 3:48 am : well i dunno about what other people are saying but i have a few things to say, everyone knows your sikkmod is the best thing that happened to id tech 4 so im cutting out all the compliments today. lets just move on to the bad.
-when i get hit my screen gets all screwy, not like im having double vision, but more like my view angle took a 180 and my fov changed to 40, only when im getting hit, also the same happens on the first level when the grunt pops through the pipes right into your face, the view gets screwy again. so i wonder if you can fix that.
-when outside like on the second level in quake 4, it gets dark. Really dark. In fact, it gets darker than the darkest nights
-gets too bright in some spots too, like the bloom almost washes out textures in spots, making everything look a lil over the edge glowy, but this only really happens when inside
other than that, i am quite happy with this mod, and love what you did with the color grading system, it really brings a robust quality out in the game that i just love!
BloodRayne@Posted: Mon Aug 02, 2010 9:22 am : I tried it out yesterday but I got a bug. Whenever I turn on an effect, it's shown in a small window on the bottom left of the screen.
I do not use ATI, these are my specs: Windows Vista 64 bits, NVidia - GTX 295, Intel i9 processor, 6GB ram etc..
RipOutTheWings@Posted: Mon Aug 02, 2010 4:13 pm : mc-rambo87
if you want to have graphics like on screenshots use "r_usecolorgrading 1" with default "HDR" config
Sikkpin@Posted: Mon Aug 02, 2010 4:16 pm : I apologize for all of the problems you guys are having. I'll to help the best I can.
@RipOutTheWings:
I set the cvars to default to the settings I use. Remember, don't use r_useBloom with HDR. HDR has it's own bloom solution.
@Alexthegr81 & @BloodRayne:
I had to jump through hoops to get post processes to work correctly with Q4. I had these same scaling issues before I fixed them but since I'm on an Ati now, fixing them for me may have broken them for nVidia cards. Do either of you have access to an Ati card to see if you still have problems? This would be the best way to start and narrow down the root of the problem. Screenshots would also help me see what it's doing exactly. Alexthegr81, if you are using the default HDR values or close to them (especially for lum_min/max variables) and you are not using ldr bloom in conjunction with it, I'm assuming that your problem has to do with scaling as well. If the luminance texture is scaled wrong as it's being shaded you'll get a wrong average scene luminance. BloodRayne, Does turning on two or more effects still cause it to draw in the bottom left corner?
BloodRayne@Posted: Mon Aug 02, 2010 4:21 pm : I'll make screenshots for you tonight. I don't have access to an ATI (well I have one lying around but I'm not in the mood to put it into my rig).

-when i get hit my screen gets all screwy, not like im having double vision, but more like my view angle took a 180 and my fov changed to 40, only when im getting hit, also the same happens on the first level when the grunt pops through the pipes right into your face, the view gets screwy again. so i wonder if you can fix that.
-when outside like on the second level in quake 4, it gets dark. Really dark. In fact, it gets darker than the darkest nights
-gets too bright in some spots too, like the bloom almost washes out textures in spots, making everything look a lil over the edge glowy, but this only really happens when inside
other than that, i am quite happy with this mod, and love what you did with the color grading system, it really brings a robust quality out in the game that i just love!
BloodRayne@Posted: Mon Aug 02, 2010 10:22 am : I tried it out yesterday but I got a bug. Whenever I turn on an effect, it's shown in a small window on the bottom left of the screen.
I do not use ATI, these are my specs: Windows Vista 64 bits, NVidia - GTX 295, Intel i9 processor, 6GB ram etc..

if you want to have graphics like on screenshots use "r_usecolorgrading 1" with default "HDR" config
Sikkpin@Posted: Mon Aug 02, 2010 5:16 pm : I apologize for all of the problems you guys are having. I'll to help the best I can.
@RipOutTheWings:
I set the cvars to default to the settings I use. Remember, don't use r_useBloom with HDR. HDR has it's own bloom solution.
@Alexthegr81 & @BloodRayne:
I had to jump through hoops to get post processes to work correctly with Q4. I had these same scaling issues before I fixed them but since I'm on an Ati now, fixing them for me may have broken them for nVidia cards. Do either of you have access to an Ati card to see if you still have problems? This would be the best way to start and narrow down the root of the problem. Screenshots would also help me see what it's doing exactly. Alexthegr81, if you are using the default HDR values or close to them (especially for lum_min/max variables) and you are not using ldr bloom in conjunction with it, I'm assuming that your problem has to do with scaling as well. If the luminance texture is scaled wrong as it's being shaded you'll get a wrong average scene luminance. BloodRayne, Does turning on two or more effects still cause it to draw in the bottom left corner?
BloodRayne@Posted: Mon Aug 02, 2010 5:21 pm : I'll make screenshots for you tonight. I don't have access to an ATI (well I have one lying around but I'm not in the mood to put it into my rig).

you need to disable "multicore..." to "0" in your graphics settings
i had the same problem

RangerMcFriendly@Posted: Fri Jul 30, 2010 10:25 am : If only I had Quake 4. Looks great.
mc-rambo87@Posted: Fri Jul 30, 2010 12:55 pm : Sikkpin pls upload your config
motsm@Posted: Fri Jul 30, 2010 1:02 pm : Looks great, thanks for the Q4 release.
Will soft shadows and or SSAO be released in a later version, or are they left out for some other reason?
smurkenstein@Posted: Sat Jul 31, 2010 7:08 pm : Hi, luckily I have both Q4 and a new GTX 460 and I'm itching to test the hardware, where do the assets go?
Thanks

Put the sikkmod folder inside the rar file in to your quake 4 root folder so it would be Quake4/sikkmod
smurkenstein@Posted: Sat Jul 31, 2010 9:20 pm : hmm..no banana..load through the mod menu and it gets stuck on "loading" - is there a point release I need?
RipOutTheWings@Posted: Sat Jul 31, 2010 10:07 pm : smurkenstein
you need to instal patch 1.4
RipOutTheWings@Posted: Sun Aug 01, 2010 12:13 am : hi sikk
can you upload your config? please
evilartist@Posted: Sun Aug 01, 2010 5:59 am : Wow, I haven't played Quake 4 in a long time, and now after seeing that grimy, dark strogg dumping level, I definitely want to play it again (while trying this mod, of course
)
Seriously, I loved that blood-filled waste level. Its atmosphere reminded me so much of fighting zombies in Quake 1.

but with those settings all too bright and shiny

these config is for doom 3
mc-rambo87@Posted: Sun Aug 01, 2010 8:31 pm : i cant understand Sikkpin, he posts his mod , but we dont get this quality like at screens...
both mods : of Doom3 and Q4 arent like at screenhsots that he posted
