Re: Shader Model 3.0 in Unreal and UT
It'll look horrible in some parts because bumpmaps are created on fly
. To create per-texture shaders/bump maps you'll have to check texture name and load from some location shader with exact name as texture. Or get the sources and link it with unused bumpmup variable in texture properties.

Re: Shader Model 3.0 in Unreal and UT
Where is my dunce hat?your not supposed to overwrite the d3d9.dll file (hypers instructions are off on his site)227e and 227f: "Can't find procedureadress ?StaticConfigName@UObject@@SAPBGXZ in DLL-file Core.dll", am I missing something obvious here?
Oh there it is..

EDIT: Oh btw, what setting is causing that 'fog' ?
EDIT Again: I suppose it's occulsion =P
Edit 2nd time: Jackrabbit can you send me your config? I can't get it to look as sharp and don't have time to fiddle w/ settings. ( the enb config )

Re: Shader Model 3.0 in Unreal and UT
you should be using the d3d9drv.dll file given from 227e. Why its not in there, I have no clue.I never had a d3d9.dll file in my system folder (until now).
I'm using the default config parameters that came with the ini.

Re: Shader Model 3.0 in Unreal and UT
JESUS!! When I first saw that screen shot (the small version), my first thought was "Wow, someone ported the Unreal 1 DP to UT3?" and then I realized "HOLY @#$% THAT'S UNREAL 1!!"
Oh, now I see what Shaders do. They make the lights more... I dunno... realistic. And I think the lights interact with the bumpy parts of textures, no? i'm not too sure, but this just reeks of UT3 pwnageness.

Re: Shader Model 3.0 in Unreal and UT
It doesn't work on my copy of 227. When I try to turn it on (shift+F12) everything becomes unlit
. And it's also shame that shaders are applied after HUD and Menu is rendered. But anyway it's beta version, let's hope everything will be fixed.

Re: Shader Model 3.0 in Unreal and UT
Installed it so:
Downloaded d3dx9_26.dll at http://boris-vorontsov.narod.ru/download_en.htm.
Installed it to Unreal227e folder.
Removed previous D3D9Drv.dll.
Renamed d3dx9_26.dll to D3D9Drv.dll
Shader isn't working and the game looks same than in software.
"Enbseries.ini can be edited (for advanced users).". It didn't include something called "Enbseries.ini."
Did i do something wrong?

Yes. You don't replace any files. You need the d3d9.dll, not d3d9Drv.dll. And enbseries.ini is included in the real archive, I got it from the thread linked at the first post.

Can't find anywhere.
Can you post the link here?
Also do I install d3dx9_26 to Windows or Unreal227e folder?
EDIT:
Can't find any more downloads from boris's site that include "D3" than this:
"d3dx9_26.dll - reqired to run ENBSeries. This library actually from DirectX9, but not available on some users PCs, thanks to Bill Gates."
And from BeyondUnreal:
"Sad that S3TC textures doesn't work. Maybe take a look at Chris Dohnal D3D9 to see what's missing (http://cwdohnal.home.mindspring.com/...d3d9r10src.zip )?"

Re: Shader Model 3.0 in Unreal and UT
D3D9Drv.dll is Unreal's driver to use D3D9; look at versions older than 227; it's not there.
D3D9.dll is located in %SystemRoot%/system32 and that is D3D9 driver for your graphics card; in other words, for all games and apps that use D3D9.
Same with D3D8.
I hope this clears it out.
Or at least, this is what I think. xD

EDIT: Where you have got ENBSeries.ini?
EDIT:
"Here it is. Try it out for yourself, see what happens. As a reminder, to run in D3D9 mode, you need to have a video card that supports shader 3.0. Use D3D8 if you don't have a fancy-shmancy card (D3D8 is still full o' nonsense, unfortunately).
Mediafire download: http://www.mediafire.com/?zytoymqohmy"
Found it from BeyondUnreal thread (i think), but this download includes a virus so i can't download it.

Re: Shader Model 3.0 in Unreal and UT
I don't know what should D3D9_26.dll or w/e be.
Probably new version [substitution] for D3D9.dll (in that case you need to replace it) but idk4real.

Re: Shader Model 3.0 in Unreal and UT
Succesfully install but:
Every texture look like they are frozen, is there a way turn it off? Especially grass look ogly.
No changes at all for: Water surface.
EDIT: This really should have a HDR effect.

That normally points to a failed S3TC rendering, but as i posted on the BeyondUnreal forums, its unclear to me if this is the case here as well, since all other S3TC textures are handled correctly. So i do asume its a Masking problem and not so much an S3TC problem.I'm playing with it at now. Some findings.
3. Masked textures are f*cked up beyond any recognition.

Yeap. Normal textures, non-S3TC, have this bug just as well.

What i meant under term "rainbow colors" is oversaturation of colors. Like the areas that are dark are too dark and areas which have brightnes on it are overbrightened ....

Thats probably from this being a dll passthrough rather than actually coded into the game, try tweaking with the INI
