GEM - Graphic Enhancement Mod (Version 3.0) автор LuciferHawk. (17.10.2013) Патч №5.

Описание: Мод расширенных графических настроек и ENB-эффектов для Rome II.

Установка:
1. Скачайте R2-TW-GEMv3-HD_installer.zip (использует SweetFXNext), или R2-TW-GEMv23-HD_installer.zip (использует SweetFXNext), или R2-TW-GEMv201_installer.zip (использует SweetFX1.4).
2. Распакуйте инсталлятор.
3. Запустите инсталлятор, указав папку с игрой (например: "D:\STEAM\SteamApps\common\Total War Rome II\").
4. Если инсталлятор не запустился, то распакуйте его вручную программами WinRar или 7zip в папку с игрой.

Внимание: Если вы используете DX9, в файле preferences.scripts.txt (C:\Users\..\AppData\Roaming\The Creative Assembly\Rome2\scripts) исправьте соответствующую строчку на gfx_enable_directx11 false.
Если ваша видеокарта использует шейдеры версии 3, то в файле GEM_settings.txt надо установить USE_SHADER3VERSION в 1.

По умолчанию работает вариант GEM-Realistic.
Для активации GEM-Cinematic или GEM-TrueColor вам надо открыть файл GEM_settings.txt и изменить USE_GEMTRUECOLOR на 1 или USE_GEMCINEMATIC на 1 и USE_GEM-Realistic на 0.
В файле GEM_settings.txt можно изменять настройки или активировать другие шейдеры. Можно использовать настройки других пользователей см. пункт "Optional Files & User Settings" (под спойлером).

Если возникли проблемы с запуском игры с SweetFX то смотрим To view the link Register возможные решения.
Некоторые видеокарты работают только с R2-TW-GEMv201.

Удаление: из папки с игрой удаляем все файлы с sweetfx в названии, также удаляем shader.fx, dxdgi.dll and d3d9.dll.

Download & Installation. (Reveal)

Before downloading these files, make sure to read the section License Agreements.

1: Download the file: (if the links are "not working" do the following: right click on the link and use "save as", repeat that until it works -normally like 3 times-)

Support for DX11
(if you get a sudden performance impact press the "pause" key of your keyboard to refresh the shader)
<::> R2-TW-GEMv3-HD_installer.zip <::> >> (uses SweetFXNext) No Steam Overlay Possible (might be possible with win8), HD
<::> R2-TW-GEMv23-HD_installer.zip <::> >> (uses SweetFXNext) No Steam Overlay Possible (might be possible with win8), HD
OR
<::> R2-TW-GEMv201_installer.zip <::> >> (uses SweetFX14)

Support for DX9
<::> sold out <::> >> (uses SweetFXNext)
OR
<::> sold out <::> >> (uses ENBseries and SweetFXNext) Fraps and Steam Overlay Possible, WIP
(You have to use some program like fraps for screens; If installed, delete noHDR mod before; For using DX9 set gfx_enable_directx11 false; in the preferences.scripts.txt of Rome 2)

2: Unzip the installer file.
3: Start the installer and point out the location to your Rome Total War II folder (something like D:\STEAM\SteamApps\common\Total War Rome II\).
4: If the installer does not seem to work you can still open the file like a normal archive with WinRar or 7zip and paste the files manually in your R2 folder.

Attention: If you are forced to use shader version 3, open the GEM_settings.txt and set USE_SHADER3VERSION to 1. (game crashes otherwise)

You can further adjust your settings or activate other shaders in the "GEM_settings.txt". Also check out the User-Defined-Settings from our users in the "Optional Files & User Settings" section.
I strongly recommend you to use my R2 settings from the Settings section if you want it to look similar to the preview.DEFAULT SETTINGS:

The GEM-Realistic version is activated by default. To activate the GEM-Cinematic or GEM-TrueColor version you have to open the GEM_settings.txt, change USE_GEMTRUECOLOR to 1 or USE_GEMCINEMATIC to 1 and USE_GEM-Realistic to 0.

If you have problems starting the game with SweetFX, check here:http://sweetfx.thelazy.net/?page_id=112
!Some graphics cards seem not to work with all versions of GEM!

To Uninstall: "Simply delete the files from your Rome 2 folder: Anything with sweetfx in the file name in addition to shader.fx, dxdgi.dll,d3d9.dll and the GEM_settings.txt"

In this section you will find the content of the default GEM_settings.txt. Do not worry cause the shader is complete itself and there will not be much for you to do in the current version.
I suggest you to start the game with the default settings, check what you do not like and then find a value in this section which may help you.
If there is something you want to have changed but cannot change with the following values, post it in this thread and I will try to help.

Check out his OP for information, questions and +rep
(I currently do not use it but used it for the dx9 supported versions)

I use the default settings of GEM but due to the variation in taste I post a few personal settings of other users.
You should check the default settings first and if it is not what you like switch through the following user settings to find your favourit.

В шапке последняя версия мода. С аптчем №5 не тестировалась (автор к слову только 10 минут назад узнал, что вышел новый патч ).
Но мод не затрагивает файлы игры, а работает с настройками графики, обработкой изображения, по-этому он должен работать с патчем №5.
Мод обновляется не всвязи с выходом патчей на игру, а в связи с выходом новых To view the link Register.

Так что пробуйте, должно работать.

[kdemonk]

Патч №5. Если заменить USE_GEMTRUECOLOR на 1, то игра не запускается, а в чёрно-белую игру с тусклыми цветами играть не хочу. Верните мне мои легионы!

[Arahnas]

Шапка темы полностью обновлена.

Не знаю о чём Вы камрад говорите, но я запускал и играл игру с патчем 5 на всех возможных настройках графики и на GEMTRUECOLOR тоже. Попробуйте переустановить мод и сделайте все как написано). Удачи!)

Всё дело в настройках и в Вашем железе. Внимательно изучите все инструкции.


Мод не затрагивает файлы игры, по-этому совместим с любыми другими модами и не зависит от патчей игры.

Мод не работает на Windows 8 (эта ОС не совместима с sweetfx).
Все работает!!!

Мод не работает на Windows 8 (эта ОС не совместима с sweetfx).
Все работает!!!

Ну может я не так понял.
Автор мода писал: "- sweetfx was never made to be compatible with win8.1, so some might have issues due to their OS but it was the same before GEMv3.0".
Т.е. могут быть проблемы, т.к. sweetfx не делали совместимыми с win8.
