Thanks for the compliment Chuck! I missed you man!!
http://sfx.thelazy.net/games/game/136/ These presets for FSX are a good stating point.
I have bloom and shadows and AA covered via DX10 so the goal for me was to get rid of the drab look of default FSX!
Lift Gamma Gain, Tonemap and Curve settings are the only settings I mess with.
If interested I could upload a copy of my
SweeFX_settings.txt file to DropBox or PM me! I've only tested in DX10 though!
Glad your still tearing up the skies!
P.S. I'm using version 1.5.1
