Psamyou'll Real Ray-Tracing Lighting + ReShade - 30 TEAM PACK

Making a separate thread for this because I feel it's of bigger nature and don't want it getting buried in my catalog


Stadium Lighting Link (arenas are made by rtomb and Santicruyff): https://bit.ly/3ox5i94

SRT LeBron floors formatted to work for this mod (REQUIRED): https://bit.ly/3D5pi6F

ReShade Link (MUST READ INSTALL GUIDE INSIDE): https://mega.nz/file/ec4jGYDB#zSmzEmq7E ... Zj_Hdu5Cyk

REQUIRED 2K21 Stadium Compatibility Fix: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/ ... sp=sharing




Ray-Traced Lighting

These stadiums have ACTUAL ray-tracing built into them within the .SCNE file which activates the lighting effects through the game engine. No more ReShade plugins for ray-tracing.. this the real deal. You'll experience real-time shadows casted by objects in the stadium and from the players on the courts.

DISCLAIMER: There are a few small issues that occur with this. 1. Net Physics do not work in Instant Replay. 2. Artifacts during pregame hype videos. 3. Lighting sometimes doesn't work during the halftime highlights. 4. On rare occasions the lighting system might break after halftime (this is fixed when entering the next game).

ReShade

This is here to help add some next gen effects that can't be done through the lighting. 2 versions are included... "Natural Colors" which keeps the game's color palette near default, and "Rich Colors" which is a more beautified look.








HOPE YOU GUYS LIKE IT!

awesome man!

is this required RTX GPU?

Cool, but fps drop is significant for me. Beside that it looks awesome.

is this required RTX GPU?

Should not need an RTX card, but I can't say it wouldn't make a difference either. As long as you have a good GPU you should be okay

A true beauty but damn this eat up my gpu card in frame rate. maybe cause i have aliasing at 8. i tried using aliasing at 1 but it didn't look to good. overall thus looks amazing!

Can Someone please tell me what Files exactly go into the Mod Folder and which go into the main folder. Thanks In advance

everything goes in the mods folder. When downloading the arena compatibility fix, you need to right click where it says "shared" at the top and donwload that folder. Then you will place that "shared" folder into your mods folder.

THANK U

The brightened crowd looks amazing. How/what did you edit or do to make the whole crowd bright in the stadium?

It's a product of what I've done with the lighting. I didn't do anything special for the crowd specifically.

Thank U it looks awesome. One question some floors The Raptors in particular is a little too brite. anything i can do to lower the exposure

Great mod!!

The only issue I have (and it could just be me) but when I try to edit a player in my MyLeague everything is blurred except for the player. Meaning I cannot even see what to edit.

Its not a deal breaker because I have two PCs so I can edit the players on my other PC but just wanted to see if this could be fixed or not. Or it could just be my PC, not sure if anyone else has this issue.

But overall, this is great!

Hit F3. That’ll fix it for ya. That’s how you activate and deactivate reshade. I typically deactivate it when in the menus!

1. Net Physics do not work in Instant Replay

doesn't works properly outside of instant replay too, the ball often goes trough the nets

1. Net Physics do not work in Instant Replay

this is only true if you're using custom net physics. With default net physics the nets move normally outside of replays.

I’ve downloaded the files and put everything in it’s correct location. But when I start playing, the players look like shadows and there’s no crowd. Only a couple of stadiums look normal. PLEASE HELP!!

I'm using your global, yeah nets moves normally outside of replays, but there is collision issues depending on how the ball goes out from the rim.

it seems there no replay physics issues with heat arena, so took a screenshot.

This is .. any chance we will get something like this for classic arenas or WNBA?

MY GUY! I will actually look into doing this for the classic teams for sure, and possibly the WNBA as well. Classic teams will be a priority though! Gonna be releasing an update down the line, and it would have all of that in there.

This means you've installed the compatibility fix incorrectly. I'm assuming you put all of those files directly in your mods folder. They need to be in a folder called "shared" inside your "Mods" folder! That will fix it for you!

I put the compatibility fix files in the shared folder but I still have player shadows.

Never mind I have it working now. Mod is AMAZING!!! Thank you

My game cant run with the dxgi.dll file, when I remove it the game runs but with the same issues as you.
