"Bloom" software for FS9

[olderndirt]

My dabbling in the screenshot 'pool' - still in the shallow end - has brought this software to my attention.

Hi.
Without trying to look ignorant.
WHAT ON EARTH ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT???

Daube brought this to our attention a while back, and it is VERY nice IMO.

It also works just fine in FS9.

Here are some shots from Daube featuring the bloom in FSX:

And if you click on the, "Got Bloom?" in his signature, it will take you to the thread where he discusses it.

Just read all seven pages and am perplexed

It is, but as far as I know, the FS people are only interested in a certain older version of the bloom, and then only the bloom section of the .ini file.

It's a mixed bag of results for me. In FSX, I get white screens, but in FS9, it works just like it should.  Some have it work perfect in both, some get nothing in both.

It's all about that wonderful Russian roulette style game of computers.  Everyone's is different, and you never know what you'll get for results until you pull the trigger.

It's worth trying, as all you do is drop 2 files into your FS9/FSX main folder, and if it doesn't work, simply delete them and that's it. No mess left behind, and nothing overwritten to backup.

My second love in flight sims is Strike Fighters, that community has just jumped all over this Bloom dll, the vast majority of guys into that series are finding that this program gives a HUGE boost in FPS as well as the cool effect

I think it's the 0074g. (newer versions may work, I've never tried. )

You put the files: 'd3dx9 26' and  'enbseries.ini'  into FS,  
they just go right in the main directory, no special folders or anything.

When that's done, open up the enbseries.ini with notepad,
and erase everything in it,  and replace it with the one Daube posted in his thread.

Start FS9 and press shift+F12 and see what happens.

If it doesn't work, or does weird things, just take those two files out of your FS folder, and it's all gone.

it's all gone.

That's the part that worries me - thanks
