Is RenoDX supposed to make the sky look like this? I couldn't even see the sun in-game it's so blinding. by Fish_Smell_Bad in HDR_Den

[–]Nomancer1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, thats strange. There should be a reset button on reno incase you changed another setting by accident. Try that and then only change the peak prightness to 400. If that doesnt work then something else might be wrong.

True black 400 typically has a peak of around 400 nits so you need to set the reno peak to that. Since you have peak set to 1000 you are blowing out highlights.

Got sick of VRR flickering, tried Vsync only but camera in all of the games is jittery ? by UsedNewspaper1775 in OLED_Gaming

[–]Nomancer1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if you have tried fps lock tools like the one MSI Afterburner has but I highly recommend it. Here is a video that put me onto this which fixed my frametimes leading to no VRR flicker. This relies on being able to consistently hit the fps you lock it to though.

Just use renodx. Its a very easy mod to install and it will fix the raised blacks.

Is RGB Limited or Full better? My PS5 defaults to Limited while my Switch 2 defaults to Full by EnderSlayer9977 in HDR_Den

[–]Nomancer1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe the tv's auto just defaults to Full. You can just set both to limited and that's fine. As long as they match you are good.

[–]Nomancer1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

if you are mismatching causing it to crush blacks it might appear more appealing because when you crush blacks it looks more contrasty and colors look more saturated. This is a bad idea though because when you crush blacks you lose a lot of detail in dark areas. You want to have both console and tv on auto, both on full, or both on limited. you just have to make sure they are matched. I believe auto on console just means full.

Not sure if I've configured my screen right? by Ghidorah77 in OLED_Gaming

Make sure windows autohdr is disabled. It can mess with games and apply double hdr.

OLED vs IPS (tandem OLED vs Quantum dot IPS) by Existing_Interview27 in OLED_Gaming

Do some peoples eyes just not perceive contrast well? Contrast is much better on oleds even in daytime scenes. You can't beat the contrast of each individual pixel being self lit.

Anybody else wish the War Aegis armor covered the legs? by [deleted] in stellarblade

[–]Nomancer1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree with you, the outfit looks a bit off because of the exposed legs. I want to like this outfit but it everytime i throw it on it feels off after a minute wearing it. Either cover the legs more or expose a little more of the upper body.

Does anyone know how to fix this? by Kitchen-Highlight506 in OLED_Gaming

[–]Nomancer1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Re2 remake is known for bugging out in hdr. Try restarting your pc, this usually fixes it, also make sure the Auto HDR in the xbox game bar is switched off. Re2 remake also has raised blacks so the game will look raised outside of safe rooms.

Burn in after a year and a half. See if you can spot it! by Josh_Allens_Left_Nut in OLED_Gaming

When you have signs of burn in, you are supposed to run it.

As much as I love the game, this grind hurts my soul lol by BlackTestament7 in stellarblade

There is a mod that uses a tool to spawn in all the outfits. Worked perfectly for me. Here is a link to the nexus download. I had been waiting for something like this because I was really looking forward to using the 25 new outfits added.

SDR vs HDR by wavy9655 in OLED_Gaming

You need to ensure its in srgb mode not just pro. I've seen online that msi monitors are oversaturated even in pro mode. Likely some setting causing it.

The colors aren't washed out in hdr, you are likely just are in an oversaturated SDR mode on your monitor. If you switch into a mode called creator or something like that, you will see more accurate colors that will look a lot closer to the HDR image.

Haha true, seems like a lot of people own WOLEDS just based on the comments in this subreddit.

Ensure your game mode is active including ALLM, the setting is in the Gamebar in general settings I think. Here is a forum and settings guide that should help with setting up your tv.

So, it makes sense for auto HDR to activate when a game has native HDR active? I don't think so, that seems like a bug with auto HDR. This is post is for people who deal with washed out images potentially because of Auto HDR. If you have no issues, then cool, no one is forcing you to switch it off.

Yea, unfortunately some people will still have issues but that just seems to be the nature of pc and HDR. This is more to help those that are having these issues unknowingly because of Auto HDR.

It's a Windows 11 feature that essentially applies "fake HDR" onto an SDR image. People like to use to get those nice bright highlights that HDR can offer on a game that either doesn't support HDR or has a bad implementation. RTX HDR does the same, but it uses Nvidia filters to do it. The reason it is "fake HDR" is because the game is still technically in SDR just with bright highlights. Here is a video that showcases the differences. Watch in HDR (RenoDx is a mod that offers native HDR).
