Little Orbit; What are your views on us using RTW Shader Files?

[Guest]

Honest question because non rtw shader apb looks like absolute patootie.

I just really dont like the grey overtone of everything and how it makes colors all grimey and what not.  Its visually unappealing to look at.

Would be cool to see it allowed however there is no existing link for it

[Guest]

Well that depends on Little Orbits answer if you catch my drift here

[vsb]

little orbit what are your views on closing this thread before it turns into another shader debate

[Guest]

I vote that they answer and tell banned that he is a dweebnugget >:C

Shaders are not allowed, that includes the RTW shader, but I don't believe BE is kicking for it/blocking it from loading.

y not though. the game looks like shit in all honestly without shaders.

[Cheeseburger!]

It's pretty obvious why not with such a competitive game.

Q: Shaders and certain configs, will they be allowed back into APB?
A: I feel like that this would be a super slippery slope, to say we’re gunna allow custom shaders or changes to the game. Now having said that, I do think we need to make these options available in the game, we need to put them in. We need to allow players to change the colour of the crosshair for low accessibility, and low processing reasons (Editorial: He meant low processing power.). That’s something that we should be putting in. While we appreciate the community doing the leg work, we feel it should come from our side, because it’ll not only look better, it’ll come from us, it’ll work properly and won’t be flagged by our anti-cheat. It’s a slippery slope to say “sure, you can mess with the components of the game”.

Do as you please, but, I do believe that was Matt Scott, the CEO of Little Orbit, Owner of GamersFirst, Publisher of All Points Bulletin: Reloaded, basically saying, don't use shaders.

I am a firm believer, and user, of the Oxford Comma.

Not sure why you even need shaders in anycase, the game looks shit regardless. While lighting is a major factor for visual fidelity in games such as Skyrim, Fallout and GW2 to name a few. In this game, the shaders literally make 0 difference other than the game still looking like shit due to the graphics options and outdated textures, if you want a more "orange" glow or color, just use f.lux #EZ

The ToS clearly describes forbidding modifying files.

I saw some streamer uses custom shader crosshair.

BE doesn't kick... okay...

It goes in waves, the banning process that is. But now it does not do anything against modified files indeed.

Was also looking for peoples opinions too on the difference of unshaded vs shaded but oh well rofl. 

[magik]

I would much rather have the RTW shaders re-implemented as an option. Matt even said in the QnA that they should be providing those options.

 

An official implementation would be better.

I'm just using the advanced launcher, hoping for RTW shaders to come back.

[SelttikS]

Custom shader looks the same to BE as a cheat shader, so might want to think twice on that idea.

But yeah game needs some Moon Cosmic Makeover or something.
