ILP

ILP_natural

ILP_linear

for 2d clouds I have to increase the advanced ambient light parameter a lot so the shadows aren't too dark. But if you prefer 3d clouds then this setting was redundant.
Now after switching clouds render method to 3d clouds setting ambient light back to default values.

only ILP filter and ILP_editable in the set.
ILP_natural and ILP_linear maybe added later.

at dusk, the headlights were too dim, fixed

made the night a little brighter

• Redesigned night lighting. Now on tracks with bright night lighting there will be no faded image due to too high gamma
• More realistic shadows during the day for all three filters
• ILP filter made brighter in sunny weather. If it's too bright for you, choose ILP_natural.
• Added more options to the PP tab to make it possible to customize the filter more. This way you don't have to overwrite the pure_config file that other filters use

ILP

ILP_natural

ILP_linear

fix for ILP_linear

• small fix for autoexposure
• increased gamma for ILP_natural

tested many combinations of different weathers + times of day and I think I managed to fix all problems with autoexposure.

increased the value to which the exposure can fall in the daytime

decreased exposure sensitivity to make autoexposure more stable

Now in dark places the brightness will increase and will no longer fall below a certain value.
v7.3

v7.2

• added ILP_natural filter - changed gamma, contrast and exposure so that in good weather the shadows are less dark than in a regular ILP filter.
• updated ILP filter - contrast, gamma and exposure adjusted more correctly for night. You can see better without increasing the exposure.
• updated ILP_linear filter - adjusted gamma and exposure. During the day there will be less overexposed areas and too dark shadows

On some tracks the night was too bright. Now night exposure is more correct, high beams will shine farther, early sunrises and late sunsets have more correct lighting.

• Added ILP_linear filter. ILP_linear uses another function for Tone Mapping, namely LinearSat. This makes the image on SDR monitors more similar to HDR.
  
  
• Slightly changed the default exposure settings for the regular ILP filter. If you changed the exposure settings on the PP tab, try the default values by clicking the "reset script settings" button
  
  
• The ILP_2 filter has been removed, since after the last update it almost did not differ from the regular ILP filter. Please do not use this filter anymore, because there will be no more updates for this filter

• now the exposure does not decrease in cloudy weather, dark places will be even less
• bright tracks will not be overexposed
• added additional sliders for exposure control to the ppfilter settings window
• fixed some bugs

• adapted to the new version of Pure - 0.154
• in the ppfilter settings window added exposure control separately for the interior and exterior.
• ILP_bright filter renamed to ILP_2 because it's not always brighter. I recommend deleting the old version to remove ILP_bright from the filter list
• some minor improvements
