By cleaning all you mean cleaning residue from registry also? I recomend using third party uninstalation software for cleaning im using revo uninstaller. Im teling you this becose your problems seam like some setings and some residue files remaining and make confusion with the new ones that hepened to me not with this game only then i sterted to use uninstalation software for true cleaning I do not advertise any software but cleaning registry base by hand is a drag and you can oversean something. Also have you try to install game and crossfire on another partition? I do that with all games and its working fine. And last but not least i recomend graphic driver update.

Hi i dont know if im eligable to answer you but i can help you with this. Answer is some will do some not you can use "transfer" button for the equipement you want on new ship. On the left is new ship on the right is stuff you dont want and will not be on new ship and acording to that price is lower check stuff on the right if you miss something important (like your hydroxin truster) after purchase that is gone . Stuff like shields come automatically with new ship so you need to transfer and mount your stuff before purchase.

The new launcher is crip man, not as much of a mess as it used to be; shaders working flawlessly & everything so far working as expected - I'm currently on the Utopia mission (Which I had graphical issues with before (Invisible Elements on ALLY side) so I'll letcha know how we look.
Outer Dyson Sphere fixed and no "Clipping" elements now
Just finished Utopia mission i had problems to navigate thry that planet fragments to find jump hole cos was a bit dark there. But with no errors or gliches or something similar. Well i forget to mention something when i was fighting 3rd ancient drone i was accidentally pushed inside of that bubble shield oround that machine where fight started. I didn't believe what is happening but after 2 min strugle i menaged to finally get free and escape the rest of drones. Drones cant hit me inside but also i cant use my weapons at all. First time easy finish that mission with 2 nemesis missiles 4 gatlings and 2 sunslays.

The gamma option on the game menu are separate from the shader option.
If you want to increase brightness you will have to open the shader options (home key) and do changes there.
Assuming you are on preset-1 it is very likely that the HDR option is causing your screen to go darker. Try to disable it or fine tune it. You can save the shader option or create a completely new one which fits your needs.
Ok i didn't know i can tweak shader but that resolved my problem i completely remove HDR i mean i unticked 2 squers and now im satisfied. Shader option window is a bit hard to navigate but i menaged with keyboard ty for a tip

Ive quickly tested new launcher and it works well. I have only comments to the launcher's overal look. To me it seems like central three squares and CF news network do not fit into overal design or together with other parts. Dunno, it could be just texts colour difference or some small detail like that nice red line below top crossfire text which is only there. Also icons on the right opens separatelly, icons on the right side opens all at once. ... however, it is just 1st look feeling, Im not sure what exactly feels to me disruptive.
Ok it seams that louncher not working same for everybody for me its perfect if someone like to look i provided small video as attachment. Sending as zip file Louncher preview.zip

Laucher seems to work well with all the options present and looks great. But it seems that clicking on any option opens 3 tabs in the browser, not that im complaining, I have enough RAM and more than enough, but there are people whose computers have problems with that. One question offtopic it seems that when I click on the gamma options in the game it gets even darker, do the shaders have locked settings and I shouldn't actually be touching them? I'm currently using those trial dx10,11,12 v2 shaders and overall I'm happy. I would like it to be even brighter, that's why I picked gamma options but nothing is perfect

Okay, I didn't see how big the file was when I downloaded it. In fact, I've never even seen that 3.1GB version. There are 2 places to download and both have a file size of 2.9GB Here on the Swat portal and on the MODDB page. So maybe you really downloaded something wrong. Since you have already downloaded the real archive, there is no need for me to give you links, have fun playing
-
Maybe you have taken everything into account, but I have to ask you, which version of windows are you using? Never mind, try to start the installation as an administrator, because sometimes Windows 10 does not allow writing to the system partition, so you need admin permissions or you simply install on a secondary partition. If you haven't unpacked the archive, but started the exe file directly from the archive, that also can be a problem. It is also possible that your antivirus has deleted or blocked some files, this is called a false positive reaction of the anti virus. Try to disable the antivirus while the installation is in progress. Don't worry, I am 100% sure that there is no malware in the installation files.

I just did a quick test of the new shaders. First of all, let me mention that I got a slight FPS drop from a stable 144 (which I locked) to a little over 100, but also stable without affecting the game, no lag, no sudden drops in fps, so the game runs smoothly. What is important is that the colors are good, in my opinion, brighter is better, unlike the old shader where everything was much darker. Just docking at the stations looks better, you can see more details, it's cleaner and without errors, which by the way were a lot on the old shader, to be honest. For those who like to watch the complete animation of entering the station, the experience is much better, or maybe I didn't pay attention to it before. In combat, seeing more details makes it easier to spot and hit the target, I guess because everything is brighter. Overall, I'm super happy with this, I haven't noticed any major flaws. I would like to mention that I personally prefer a brighter environment, maybe someone likes it more when it is darker.

Just tested, textures of vanilla ships do look much better like there is diference in a good way . No gliches btw this game looks better and better thanks to this mod. Great job you people are tireless. Have you done somethig to shaders? Cos the game now runs smooth
-
So it seams that diferent hardware have diferent issues.We need too much testers to help you. The best option is to wait another shader update and try to play as it is for now i think you cant handle so much problems and working on mod improvements at the same time. Noone is blaming you but we put big preasure on you crying obout small details. I sugest to open new thread obut this shader problems and game problems global so evrybody can post there issues and exange ideas of potentialy fixing them. If you need to test some fixes im offering my help every time dont hesitate to ask, maybe someone will also do that so we can test on diferent systems.

you should not share your device ID or Product ID in public. Here its ok i gues i consider this as healthy enviroment but do not do that on other sites.

Btw that shaders seam to use dx11 maybe integrating install of dx11 into the mod installer solves our little problems? So all we have to do is fresh install of game
-
I also experienced freezes but no stutter fps is fine. Think i solved little problems by updating the SP first then MP then run it at windowed mode and its working fine now its just ocasionall freezes at MP (i was thinking its server related lag) i dont try SP tho. Well with diferent computers diferent problems i use 2K resolution so graphic card do all heavy lifting CPU usage is almost zero even GPU usage is at 20% top. On 1080p CPU do most of the job. If you ask me problem is in shaders it self maybe reverting to older versions that worked will help. I need to mention that i did fresh install of Windows 11 and fresh install of the game but i neeaded to force install dx11 and all versions below also you need all redist packages dx12 not neaded but native to the windows.
-
Depending on your graphic card either via the ATI or Nvidia software.
Alternative to that you probably also can use the window mode in the launcher options. I think window mode does not have vsync on.
Yep windowed borderles mode dont have vsync on and solved my alt-tab pain in the ass problem

so I'm trying to push the game for faster FPS as 60 is ok but my monitor (and Gcard) can push to 144mhz refresh for 2K resolution (2560x1440).
could people share how they boosted FPS please?
Bear in mind I have done the graphics card thing to add my 3060
(have marked as tech difficulties because it technically is
Yep there will be pach in meantime you can turn off VSync in global setings at nVidia controll panel or for this game specifically seems to be a shader bug
-
There is an answer to my problems ty OP i had to update dx11 by force to my system that solved FPS drops but still locked to 60 i run win 11 and dx12 is native. It would be awesome if i can use dx12 in game ill provide feedback after this updates cheers
