Hi all, i just came accross this video regarding SweetFX:

h ttp://w ww.you tube.co m/watch?v=ajR 1rHboWiw (remove the spaces)

can i install this or is there a risk of getting banned?

thanks

the game doesnt need graphic improvements, at least for now....

I believe this runs as a wrapper/injector, if so I would be very surprised to see it able to run in release as that would mean extremely light security on the client. No big deal in a single player same, but could lead to real problems with certain communities that enjoy cheating in MMO's.

No i didnt checked the video, because I dont have time to erase gaps... I wonder why u did that...

But I ve played the beta and it looks fantastic.

"No i didnt checked the video, because I dont have time to erase gaps..."

yeah it is quite tiring to remove 4 gaps. can't imagine how tiring it will be to play this game and having to press so many buttons

Honestly? It just looks like a lower brightness and a higher contrast to me.

This is how I've always found SweetFX, too. I tried it in two or three games and it does nothing that you couldn't do using the game's ingame Graphic Options.

Yeah I dont see much change in the quality... It can just be done with the game's own settings.

I don't understand why you need to improve the graphics anyways...can't see much difference and I actually preferred it off.

I just hope ZOS that does not allow "random" code to be install on the client side, that just leads to cheats.

Cheats are going to happen regardless of what ZOS allows. Now, how fast and severe ZOS deals with it,will probably determine how much and how widespread they are.

On topic, I know people who play Battlefield4 who use\like SweetFX. The various anti cheat programs like Punk Buster doesn't have a problem with it, so I'm guessing it shouldn't be a problem in ESO.

Yeah.. it's gonna be interesting to see how they deal with it. It can completely break the game in worste case.

Thanks for the link. TESO's graphics look pale and depressing. This will definitely give it some life.

EDIT: Looks like most people don't know what this is. It's not a cheat or some kind of voodoo thing that changes the code in the client. I have a feeling we are dealing with older and not so much tech-advanced folks.

You can't post a link on your first post, hence the spaces

Also, this mod looks fantastic.

EDIT:

Thanks for sharing this. I don't think it will be a problem because it seems to just tweak the saturation and contrast levels.

That's where the part of subjective nature comes in... You don't need to install it.

Please allow us high resolution texture packs and ENB. That's all I'm asking. Give us the means to do that and we'll turn ESO into a gorgeous game, as we did with Skyrim.

Woah, thank you...

I just made a youtube account in order to thumbs up that video.

This graphics mod is not a cheat in and of itself, but just leads to other programs who can inject code into the game and those programs can be cheats. IMHO, it is best "nib it in the bud" before it gets out of hand. In other words, play it self.

For example, a graphics mod can can darken can highlight one type of texture file (an ore node or other players) thus they can not sneak or make to easy to farm matts. That can be a cheat.

@Nijjion Fair point.

I want it to, but isn't risk of cheating out weight the reward? That is the question that I am asking myself now...

I won't do any modding until I get word from ZeniMax stating that it's okay. It would be nice though.

I am not talking about you, just graphics modding in general. I would love some graphics mods, there is a reason that ZOS only allow UI add-ons.

SweetFX looks really good on ESO I must say, I really hope that Zenimax allows it, and same goes with high res mods.

Skyrim is a great game, I'm not comparing it to ESO, I'm just pointing out the obvious difference that texture packs can make.... But taking into account the cheaters will likely get out of hand
