UT2004 with ENBSeries

(1/3) > >>

[MiA]Raj:
What is ENBSeries?
ENBSeries is the project of graphic modifications for games. The main idea is to allow every gamer to configure how game looks like for their own taste, so every player could share settings with others. Many games may look much better and ENBSeries is the easiest way to improve them.

Tutorial for UT2004 usage
Download ENB Series for Black Mesa, extract, move following files into your UT2004's System folder:
- d3d9.dll
- enbseries.ini
- enbfocusing.txt

Download ENBSeries DX8 to DX9 Convertor
Move following files into your UT2004's System folder:
- d3d8.dll
- enbconvertor.ini

Open UT2004.ini and find UseCubemaps=True under [D3DDrv.D3DRenderDevice] section, set it to False.

Open enbseries.ini, use this config (the stock one probably won't perform well): http://pastebin.com/9RkYuJwj
Find DisplayWidth and DisplayHeight and adjust them to your screen resolution.

Run UT2004, the effect should be active. You can toggle it with SHIFT+F12. If something goes wrong or you don't like it uninstallation can be done by deleting the files mentioned above.

Example:
before


after



Troubleshooting
You may get an error like this:


In that case download DX9 redistributable from Microsoft or Filehippo, extract the package somewhere, locate the necessary DLL file and place it under UT2004 System directory.
The game may also not start at all with no message displayed, in that case reinstalling the game may help.

I think SweetFX does that too...
Didn't test it on this game but SweetFX does it's job pretty good.


EDIT:
I don't know why but SweetFX doesn't work for this game (at least not for the Demo [Idk why my original game won't launch]).

Veica:
All that postprocessing, oh god...

I don't like it... :\

UT2004 is a dx8 game, SweetFX is for dx9 games.
SweetFX should work if you use the ENB dx8 dx9 convertor.

I don't really like it either, atleast not for actual gaming. But it may come useful if I feel like taking effectful screenies/videos.

Or for those who want UT3 like graphics  ;D

Rocky:
It isn't working with mine. Menu is not loading up and all.

And when 2nd time I run it, it gives me C++ Run Time Error. :O
I think the new d3d9.dll file could be the problem. Pls can someone send me the orignal d3d9.dll file??
