Madden 08 MasterEffect + ReShade

Postby DarKommi » Mon Nov 14, 2016 8:22 pm

Hi to all. As always, I'm here constantly, watching what happenings.. but don't have much time for anything more. Recently, I found this little addon for games. Must say that this is great, colors are amazing, sharpness.. everything is much better then original!
For more info, here is the explanation.
Spoiler:
What is MasterEffect:
The MasterEffect shadersuite is a huge shader library for ReShade, containing everything from simple image adjustments like color saturation, contrast and brightness to complex post processing effects which let today's triple A video game titles look they way they do, such as Depth of Field, Ambient Occlusion, Global Illumination, Bloom, Lens Flares and many more. No matter if you want to compensate monitor specific color differences or spice up old titles to a point where they put 5 years newer titles to shame, MasterEffect contains everything you can imagine and more.
Originally a small shader collection for the popular ENBSeries mod in an attempt to unify all different shader plugins available, MasterEffect quickly grew to the huge shader library it is today. Powered by ReShade, giving your game a graphical rejuvenating has never been so easy.


Unlike previous versions of sweetfx, MasterEffect is more optimized and it should work on the older pcs too.
How to use:
1. Download .zip file EFFECT
2. Extract it to the game .exe location(default: C:\Program Files\EA Sports\Madden NFL 08)
3. When in the game you should be able to see text in the top left corner.. to enable/disable effects press Scroll Lock button.

Some examples:

Here is the link to the original site https://reshade.me/
They provide even newer(better) version. In the latest version you can tweak everything in the game by loading little window with shift+F2 but somehow it won't load in madden. Tested it on the other games and it works just fine.


btw. I would like to thanks everyone included in the FF/FI XVI mod on outstanding work, keep up great work guys! Thank you. Also, amazing work on the rookie portraits, RogerJinx.

If it doesn't work, then how did you get those screenshots? I'd like to use this, but if it doesn't work... :(

The one he linked to before the screens is the one that works, he simply gave a link to their website and pointed out that they have a newer version than what he linked, but it doesn't work.


On a sidenote, I tried it, it's a little strong for my tastes, and kind of distorts the colors and logos. I think this is great for like action/shooter games where there's not a lot of absolutes (specific colors, logos, etc.), but no so much here IMO

I see the text, but player models and just models in general are not showing up.
