PostPosted: Fri, 17th May 2024 05:50    Post subject: Preset
Opening a game and picking the 'very high' or 'ultra' preset, which theoretically should max everything out without having to go through each dropdown manually



But then having to go through all the options anyway, to see they're actually all maxed out, because you always know there's a chance some won't be.

Well, it's the 17th of May 2024, roughly 2 hours past noon (AEST), and this is still a thing.

I have it set to HBAO+, but there's some XeGTAO setting, which I assume is some intel thing

Im gonna try it tonight when Im finally gonna have time to play it:

Menno and the team also implemented XeGTAO, Intel’s implementation of Ground-Truth Ambient Occlusion. Like SSAO and HBAO+, this solution is based on screen space. Therefore, this technique does not enable the level of realism that RTAO does, but the performance cost is much lower and comparable to that of the HBAO+ implementation. XeGTAO is selectable as an option in the game and works with graphics cards from all vendors.

“XeGTAO generates a very high-resolution ambient occlusion that shows even the smallest details in geometry,” says Bil. “Overall, the output quality of XeGTAO is very high and results in a pleasant look.”

Let's take a moment and lambast the dumb motherfucker who made that field of view slider, shall we?

FOV = 0? FUCK YOU.

How about FOV = the actual fucking FOV and label it as vertical or horizontal so that we know what we're actually selecting? What the fuck is 0? 50 degrees? 65 degrees? Fuck knows?!

It's been 20+ fucking years and still there are dumb fucks out there that don't know how to properly make and label an FOV slider. Evil or Very Mad

Since i started working, it occurred to me that whenever you're the only one responsible for fulfilling a task, it often is the case you do not pick the best way to perform said task (either lack of xp, distractions, various other real yet irrelevant reasons). I accept that is the way most people work, but the real tragedy here is that no one caught it until release - which makes me assume there wasn't even anyone reviewing said work - just fire and forget Sad.

Also, settings in-game that have no indication of where "high" lies in the scale. Some games have like dots under the setting to tell you, but many don't. So you go through them all clicking right until it either maxes out or rolls back to low.

Yep, that's exactly what all of them need. All these million/billion dollar companies failing at basic UX

Could try, cant hurt. But pretty sure you'd have bigger problems you'd trade into in exchange for the presets working. Up to you if the new problems are less than the old ones.
