Hey guys

Can someone help me out with the settings for dirt rally the game feels kinda blurry. I dont have any issues with AC for example. My specs r

I5 4670k 4.4 overclocked
16 g ram
980ti

My settings are low and medium to maintain 90 fps but the game looks washed out and blurry am using the debug tool at 1.5 and turned off the AA in game. Any suggestions? I just want the game to run well and looks ok without the blurry crap. Any suggestions are highly appreciated thanks

Don't have the game so I can only guess potential reasons:

1. This is just a matter of design. It's blurry and washed out because it's how dev likes it.
2. You have some kind of post-process type AA mode enabled. Check in game and in Nvidia panel to ensure it's disabled
3. Check if you have DSR enabled. I don't know if it even works with VR, but it can blur and wash out the image. Disable it completely.
4. Post-process effects in some games can be altered by changing shaders/shading settings. Search the game options and experiment a little.
5. You can use digital vibrance slider to adjust colors. Increase the strenght of the colors by moving the slider in Nvidia panel.

Not an Oculus hater, but not a fan anymore. Still lots of respect for the team-Carmack, Abrash. Oculus is driven by big corporation principles now. That brings painful effects already, more to come in the future. This is not the Oculus I once cheered for.

@Hellfiend - I agree, it looks like it has post processing on and there's no way to switch it off. Can someone please find away to switch this off and post it here. Thanks!

Unfortunately as with most things nowadays, "newer" means worse instead of better, so judging from the fact that from Grid/DIRT games to Grid 2/3 they went from "you can change the setting manually" to "go fuck yourself" I don't hold much hope they went back to the old, better way, but you never know so here it is:

Try to search for files with process text inside. In Grid 1 game it was hardwaresettings.xml. You could disable the whole bullshit, I mean postprocess (same thing IMHO) there by changing from TRUE to FALSE. It was NOT accessable through game menu.
This game was created under somewhat different environment compared to typical recent Codemasters games, so I hope it helps, but I estimate the chance for you to find such a file at below 1%.

I think there must be a setting somewhere in the options, as i notice this when switching between High and Medium .... High looks great, but some change when you go down to medium makes it all look washed out.

Luckily I have a 1080 so can run on High, but its still right at the top end of the cards performance and running on ultra the performance HUD says its about -10% resources all the time.

@Hellfiend - I find the graphics and image quality in Dirt Rally to be superb on my CV1.  I have all in game AA turned off and just use the Debug Tool to set pixel density to 1.4.  I have most settings on Ultra but using a 1080 overclocked so on your 980ti you can just turn graphics down to High or Medium and you should get a similar image quality.

the setting shadow details is a huge use if you turn that off youll get 90fps even when everything is on ultra I tested this the other day

but it removes a lot of things youll notice right off the bat great thing is you can change the settings in real time and see the inpact wish project cars did that

I'm getting terrible framerates on my 980Ti, even when everything is turned to medium I can't maintain even 60fps. What am i doing wrong? Running Windows 7 and the following specs:


Intel Devil's Canyon 4790K OC'ed to 4.7Ghz

Nvidia GeForce EVGA 989Ti

32GB DDR3 Ram

2TB Samsung SSD

Does Windows 7 support ASW?

if not, that would be one good reason to move up to Windows 10, right there.

before ASW dropped, I was using fairly low settings, but was able to move them all up to the highest level afterwards. Ok, I have a 1080, but your card might still allow you to do the same.

if you need any comfort about moving from 7 to 10, I was a bit of a win 7 fanboy, but was very impressed with win 10.
