External Graphic Enhancement Applications to Enhance Jk3?

[Wundai]

Hello everyone,

 

I was wondering if anyone has experience to share about using External Graphical Enhancement Applications to make JK3's graphics look a bit better.

 

I myself have had some nice results with the Qeffects application (Bloom on lightsabers, An. Filtering, Anti-Aliasing).

But I remember in the past I also used ENB Series which could even project shadows inside a game. I never got that to work with JK3 though.

Shadows for me have always been a bit of a problem with JK3, CG_Shadows 1 and 2 work, but choosing 3 got the game to lag too much.

 

Curious if anyone can share their experience, and hoping this is not labeled as offtopic since I am using such things for enhancing beloved jk3

Reshade is pretty nice for some basic adjustments. I often use it for ambient occlusion, light lens flare effects, and screen space reflections. For a small fee there are users who have released things like ray-tracing plugins for it as well, although I haven't tested those.

Here's a link to the video, and some notes about what I did:

What exactly does the cg_shadows command do?

I don't know the answer to your question.
