I just uploaded a new wip version!
Link : http://www.mediafire...pic13_WIP-9.zip
New stuff :
-Lens effects (including water drops on the screen when raining!)
-Fog
-Little changes everywhere
This will be one of the last before I restart my thread, so I'd like to have some feedback about things to improve, performance or bugs.

Wow, sounds like you have been making some pretty huge strides Chocapic!

I'll take a boo when I get home, and see how they look!

Great idea! I had just updated to 327, and then all shaders stopped working. Also, I am running Windows 8, so yay. I will also try that change to composite.vsh, and let you know! Also, what version do you recommend for the Nvidia driver? The 320.49?

EDIT: It's the 650M, not 660. My bad

Well, I'm using 320.00 & 320.49 without any issues myself.

Sonic Ether recommends 306.XX with his SEUS shaders, and Karyonix recommends 314.XX (they are the most stable on his system, he experiences crashes with anything 320+).

I suppose it's whatever works best :)!

It's because your nvidia drivers are to high, downgrade them, running 306 here.

guys if mc forge does not work for you get the 1.6.4 version then magic launcher 1.1.7 then use your zip aarchive file any make a winrar or 7zip file on your desktop then open the mc forge and drag all the contents (including the folders) and drag them into the archive folder then open magic Launcher and choose the mods you want to upload and play with on your desktop do this by clicking setup then add and go to the top click desktop then all the mods on your desktop should be there then add mc firge and it should be good to go lol ;p bye

I'm *trying* to use this with a bunch of mods but keep getting this error: http://pastebin.com/V0ZgLPhM

Tried with and without optifine, and wiith the Optfine mod folder patch.

Tried with and without Sphax. Not sure what it is. On world load it crashes.

probably one of the mods I use. No idea what it could be though.

I suggest you create a new world for test. First remove all other mods. Install only Forge and ShadersMod. Test. Then add a few mods at a time and test (with test world) until you find mod that is incompatible.

Got it working. After breaking my graphic card, uninstalling it, and more hassle, I remembered that I wasn't supposed to uninstall it from the control panel (duh, how hard is it to remember). So I then undid everything, uninstalled it CORRECTLY, and installed 327.49. Now everything works great, aside from some lag. But that's common with my PC, unfortunately. It seems that even though I've got 2GB vRAM, I still get about 50 FPS.

Anyways, that's off-topic. Everything aside, I got it working. Yay. Thanks.

So, I've been looking around, and I can't find just a basic water shader. All I'm looking for is adding the water effects of SEUS, but I've got no idea how to edit it.

Try downgrading graphic driver if you using NVIDIA card(s).

Or, open composite.vsh, modify

	float timePow = 2.0f;

to

	float timePow = 3.0f;

OR

	timeSunrise  = pow(timeSunrise, timePow);
	timeNoon     = pow(timeNoon, 1.0f/timePow);
	timeSunset   = pow(timeSunset, timePow);
	timeMidnight = pow(timeMidnight, 1.0f/timePow);

to

	timeSunrise  *= timeSunrise;
	timeNoon     = sqrt(timeNoon);
	timeSunset   *= timeSunset;
	timeMidnight = sqrt(timeMidnight);

Hello.
Very good Mod!!
but don't work is nVIDIA Drivers new Vertions........

Nope, you must downgrade them. Like to 320.00, 320.49, 306.XX(Sonic Ether), and 314.XX(karyonix). Apparently, anything above 320 doesn't work.

Glad to hear that you got it all squared away!

Try downgrading graphic driver if you using NVIDIA card(s) to driver version 320.49 or less.

    float timePow = 2.0f;

    float timePow = 3.0f;

    timeSunrise = pow(timeSunrise, timePow);
    timeNoon = pow(timeNoon, 1.0f/timePow);
    timeSunset = pow(timeSunset, timePow);
    timeMidnight = pow(timeMidnight, 1.0f/timePow);

to

    timeSunrise *= timeSunrise;
    timeNoon = sqrt(timeNoon);
    timeSunset *= timeSunset;
    timeMidnight = sqrt(timeMidnight);

This is a nice fix for those (wasn't aware of the time fix) who want to use the nV 327 WHQL drivers, it should get rid of the composite.vsh cannot load errors.

Lot of fps-drop when i look the sun, "lens" are overpowered ? xD
*keep searching bug*

Config :
GTX650ti 2go
AMD 8350fx
8go ram

(Fault to the card ? your WIP-7 is the moar optimized :> !)

I'm curently trying to get lens effects running a bit faster.

I also tried the new nvidia beta drivers ... I get 10fps with shaders so I recommend to use 320.49 (327 cause bugs). It's interesting only for those who have an sli and want to try the bf4 beta (I don't have any gain with a single gtx670).
Note : most of time beta drivers are as stable as whql drivers. "whql" is just the useless microsoft certification

The fog blur effect from SEUS N1 no longer works after beta 9. Please fix it, it is an awsome effect

Hey I would just like to ask something.. I keep on seeing for people telling to downgrade their nVidia Graphic Drivers to 320.49 or something.. but I currently have 327.23 and It works for me and I would just like to know what kind of problems there are for these people have trouble because of the drivers version.

i'm using the latest beta nvidia drivers and have no issues. though i have put 2.01 in line 47 composite. new beta18 works with optifine features when optifine is installed to jar. thanks karyonix

O.O

That's a huuuge difference...

Yeah, wowzers! That's incredible.

From what Chocapic / Sildur say, rolling back further to 306.XX gets you even more FPS..

Quote from Toutsimplemain

For those who have a bad framerate with lastest chocapics shaders, use an older version of Nvidia Drivers:
I made a comparaison, with newest, and older drivers:

327.23
<snip>

320.49:

PS: Thanks Chocapic, this update is cool, and my hand isn't transparent anymore

BTW, what is the HUD you have in the lower-right that dissects your JVM memory allocation there? Funky :)!

You can do this with shift+F3!

Also, here is WIP-9.2 : http://www.mediafire.com/download/fhhp5wksc9cysi4/WIP-9.2.zip
It fixes bug on amd gpu (thanks to karyonix for his help) and give a 10-15% performance boost.
I'm starting doing the different versions and then I will re-open my thread!

Ahh, I knew about F3 to get the full written HUD, didn't know about the graphical pie chart ;). Thx for the tip!

Great work getting your shaders back up and running, btw, loved your WIPs and V3 back in the 1.5.2 days!

Sildur is finally going to get some competition back (especially for the older GPUs) -- used to love your Lite/Low versions on my NB.

I will be away for a week. I cannot make any progress during this time.
