F1 2015 A blurry mess

[hollow]

Has anybody found a cure for the blurred image yet? I tried all sorts of different settings, including the hardware settings config.xml file changes (motion blur and depth of filed = OFF), but the image is still as blurred as hell. SweetFX could help...

The graphics are a big letdown in this year`s edition. It`s a shame as they finaly got the handling and FFB quite right.

I am using NVidia also GTX 970 . I was wondering if amd guys had different AA options in game .

The problem certainly looks like chromatic aberration to me. The way there's a rainbow effect bouncing off the bald guy in the garage's head makes me really think that's it. It's intensely and purposefully blurred with some kind of post processing effect probably to hide low-res textures. It looks terrible, and I absolutely need to figure out a way to unblur the game, even if I see shitty textures.

I think chromatic abomination describes it better.
They really need to do something about this before I go blind!

go to hardware settings config....change vsync from false to true....and motion blur to false....its a <snip> diffrent game for me now...lol

mod edit - cut out the swearing pls

 

[Kromey]

I've done that. It still looks like I'm looking through an oculus rift on a normal screen.

I think its a bug, if you watch the AI onboard whilst you're in the garage there is no blur.

hello everyone, I changed the graphical configuration file, my feeling got better.
Anyone can test, save the original file

Screenshots AA (SMAA+TAA vs Completely off) on my GTX970 http://oi58.tinypic.com/23w4g06.jpg Can someone please post a blurry screenshot?

People are talking about motion blur, which occurs when the car is moving at speed. You're screenshots show a car standing still.

As requested, see comparison shot below.

Please note: I had to set the hardware_settings_config.xml file to Read-Only to prevent the blur setting from reverting back.

For those that are interested in depthOfField, here you go.

Btw, this is with all settings Ultra High and SMAA+TAA

seems to be working quite well! will try on my pc as soon as i get home! so the xml file must be set to read only?

 

[Mike85]

Ok, I tried it. No depth of field and no motion blur in xml file: doesn't seen to solve much to be honest, but still a slight improvement. The problem occures when your car moves. it's TAA (temporal AA) that makes the image so blurry. Very cheap console version of antialiasing.......

You only have to disable DOF and Motion Blur if you don't like the blur effect. The other settings are fine to leave at default. With the in-game AA though, anything less than SMAA+TAA results in bad aliasing. If you can't run that settings, you might as well just disable AA. Unfortunately there's no other AA options, I've tried to SGSSAA and SSAA with no good results.

Is there any joy to be had by turning in-car AA and AF off and instead forcing settings (FXAA, for example) in driver settings instead? I've tried fiddling around but I'm no expert.

Also can anyone get SweetFX working with this game yet? I've tried it both in the game folder and via RadeonPro, but it doesn't seem to activate.

That did it for me its a lot better ! , thanksc.

I noticed that any resolution under 1920x1080 made everything blurry for me. Anything over 1920x1080 is clear as a bell.

I've seen no way yet to force any other method of AA other than the in-game settings. If you can't use SMAA+TAA in-game with the performance hit it brings, then you might as well turn it all off because the other options, SMAA only, or TAA only don't do much on their own. I don't use SweetFX so I couldn't tell you if that works.

Your custom settings should not revert back on their own unless you go into the graphics menu and change something there at which point it will overwrite your custom xml settings. However, I have read reports of graphics options not saving which is being called a bug, however I haven't seen that happen since the first patch which was supposed to fix that.

I swear 1440p is just 1080p up-scaled
