Metro: Exodus - 3D-VisionReadyFix - Losti - V5.01


Metro: Exodus - 3D-VisionReadyFix - Losti - V5.01


***This fix was made by Losti***


NOTE: NOT WORKING FOR THE ENHANCED EDITION!!!!

You can install 3D-Vision for the lates driver using this Method discriped here: https://www.mtbs3d.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=105&t=25361
















3DFM TEAM INFO:
Make sure you add this to user config, EVERY game start!:
r_game_mblur_scale 0.
r_base_fov 70.
r_dbg_stereo_separation_base 0
r_dbg_stereo_separation_zoom 0
r_dbg_stereo_auto_separation 0
Use config can alter, examples:
C:\Users\Losti\Saved Games\metro exodus\76561197960267366
C:\Users\Losti\Saved Games\metro exodus\7a174ee8118d4d298af35d6290982357
==> Starting the game via the 0MetroExodus_3DVision.cmd is the save way to do all the needed things here!
- If you are not using the 0MetroExodus_3DVision.cmd the user will have NO choice for FOV, and NO choice for the performance mode. Performance Mode is ENABLED by default, but causes flickering and culling issues, not needed to choose in the main game but must have in the DLCs.

  5. Hallo Losti,
    erst mal danke für deine Bemühungen und die viele Zeit die du dafür immer opferst!!!!
    Bei mir will der Fix leider nicht starten, es kommt immer die Fehlermeldung das er das "Savegamefolder" nicht findet obwohl ein Spielstand vorhanden ist der auch funktioniert. Hast du eine Idee?

    1. Do you still get the error if uninstall the fix completely using uninstall.bat? This is very unlikely to be related to the 3D Fix.

    2. Hi,
      if I completely uninstall the fix and reinstall, the error is still there. If I start the game without the fix I can continue to play from the last checkpoint

  10. Hi, being a user of helix mods for almost eight years. But havent been playing with it since a few years because oculus . So her my question is nvidia 3d play needed for this fix? and if so is the resolution still limited 1920X1080 @24 hz? Or has there been changes by now? Or can this mod be utilized without the 3dplay dongle?THX

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. If you are using a projector, you'll still need the 3D TV Play software to make it work. That is now free as part of the latest drivers though, so no pyramid dongle needed.

      3D TV Play is not required by the fix specifically, but we need 3D Vision active and working, which is either 3D TV Play, or native 3D Vision depending upon the output hardware.

      Delete
    2. ok and resolution wise? Restrictions as 24hz @ 1920X1080
      and Can i use sbs, top bottom setting from my tv?

      Delete
    3. Sorry, I'm not sure on resolution, I don't use 3D TV Play so don't know the restrictions. Based on what I've read though, you can probably bypass the 24hz restriction by using the built-in SBS or TAB shader that comes with 3Dmigoto used in this fix.

      Try enabling that in the d3dx.ini file, and play around with it. If you get a full resolution TAB image for example, your TV can probably convert that without needing 3D TV Play. If you run into trouble, join the Discord and ask there, or ask on the NVidia forums, because their are a lot more users there, with TVs.

      Delete
    4. Hello, i'm using a projector and confirm you can play at 1920*1080 60hz using 3dtv play and checking checkerboard mode in the nvidia 3d control panel. First you need to uncheck the " in the shadersbsrestriction line into the 3dmigoto ini file. You should be able to change between sbs or top bottom mode by pressing F10 ingame. Sorry for m'y english i'm french.

  11. Metro Exodus is a hard game for hardware. So I disable flimmering correction and increased fps. To decrease and even disable textures flimmering with this mode I use separation less than 50% and high level of convergence. Losti you should to mention this in header

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. How can I disable disable flimmering correction to increase fps? Using the controller, pressing 3 seconds menu xbox button does not work it seems (it just changes the graphics presets). Fps is really bad with 1080ti in 1080p.

  18. dear losti after loading from 0MetroExodus_3DVision.exe crashes game from going into game maneu and also if I load game from metro exodus.exe then 3d does not look good as I see reflections on faces I do not know how to explain it. can u plz help dear?i created diy according to ur instructions step by step.but iam not sure abt where to put formula values although ive seen the values from formula that was created after placing d3 and d4 values.

    ReplyDelete

    1. First of all: If you weren’t able to handle the black screen you haven’t read the description carefully enough:

      - As soon as the black screen occurs, several times press the left mouse button to ensure game window is in foreground
      - if you end up in a black screen after starting the game for more than 20 seconds, restart the game and try again ---- you can also try ALT+TAB and back

      Second: Just trying the DIY without any sense will not help you. If you were able to run 0MetroExodus_3DVision.exe without any error (i do not mean black screen while loading, see above to handle this) you’re in game selected resolution is OK. You can also read the description listing the supported resolutions:

      1920x1080
      2103x1183
      2351x1323
      2560x1440
      2715x1527
      2880x1620
      3325x1871
      3840x2160

      There is also a hint in the DIY fix that you DO NOT NEED it if you are on any of these resolutions.

      If you were not able to place the values in the right place in the opened ini file, i can’t help you here. This is really easy and there is an example that values completely matches the FORMULA above in the RegEx so you can easily see how to place. There is also a detailed description. I can’t explain it better where to place the formula values from the excel sheet.

      Anyway....You do not need DIY, there is something wrong with your setup. The Script checks all necessary files and locations and will NOT start if everything is matching. I think you have some writing permissions for the 3d3x.ini or some missing admin rights.

      If you start the game with metroexodus.exe everything should be OK if the 0MetroExodus_3DVision.exe runs until game start a first time. if NOT there should be some errors in adding values to the d3dx.ini. This means you have to choose your correction formula to match the in game graphic preset with the "-" key on numpad. Same for 3D Vision Fix manager ....this reminds me to give a note to pauldusler to update the manager to the new metro version, because the manager uses FOV 80 I think and this one have some issues.

      Double check things!!! Reinstall the fix!! Make a clean installation of your graphic cards driver using DisplayDriverUninstaller and get the latest NVidia driver. verify your game files!! Start the game using the 0MetroExodus_3DVision.exe and handle the black screen with the mouse clicks if you see the game starts.

      You can send me a link to your current d3dx.ini and ill check if this is basically OK but THAN please do the suggested things.

      Any screenshots are very helpful in case of issues, as well as system specs, settings in game and so on!!

      The 0MetroExodus_3DVision.exe will automatically set DX11 if there are no admin right problems, but double check you have selected it in game after starting it.

      You can also give me your user.cfg (a numerous sub directory in XXX:\Users\USERNAME\Saved Games\metro exodus) and ill check if settings was applied here also.

      Delete
    2. And make sure Shading Rate = 1.0 ingame !! (i should add this restriction to the script and as it seems i missed to mention it in the description here @ the blog ^^)

    3. dear losti thanks for ur reply.really ao appreciate ur help.first of all yes ur right my game resolution is 2560x1440 so I do not need diy rather I will directly try 0metroExodus.exe.currently ive removed game along with 3dvision fix completely and reinstalling it now.iam using nvidia 419.65 version of driver and donot know if I should update it because latest one does not support 3d.my game settings were fov 70,motion blur low and graphic ultra.
      my system specs are asus rtx2080, i7 4790k, ram 16gb, power supply just now replaced from Silverstone 600watts to 750watts as my pc was rebooting all of sudden during loading metro exodus or some times in windows 10 version 1809.so I completely formatted my hard drive and reinstall version 1805 which so far is working normal.

      Delete
    4. also when I was loading from 0metroexodus 3dvision.exe game was running fine until it was going into menu exactly at that time just when menu should come game crashes into desktop.my shading rate is 1.o in game.my game was running fine with ur last fix which was released in middle of april until now.

      Delete
    5. Currently I am @ driver version 425.31, everythiong is fine here. The latest driver is 430.39 but this will not have 3D vision driver anymore as i saw....FCK NV for this (YES this is my personal meaning!!!! We fix so many games and you still quit 3DV-Support.....My hopes lies in DarkStarSword and BO3B for creating a standalone driver....1000€ still put aside to spend from me for this project!!!

      The next days ill try the new driver without 3D-Vision support but install 3D Vision driver from the latest version that have this one included. Ends up in NEW driver and 3D-Vision....hopefully....


      Annyway. Problems here so far ???

  19. even if I play directly from 3d vision fix manager shadows are not correct.

    ReplyDelete
  20. Dear losti I completely reinstall fresh copy of windows 1705 along with NVidia driver 419.35 and metro exodus and then I install 3d fix manager and I launched game from there after installing 3d fix and game was looking better although some shadows and lights were in wrong place in 3d then I launched game from 0MetroExodus_3DVision.exe and game was same like yesterday with wrong shadows

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Use the - key on numpad to match your Graphic preset to the choosen ingame Graphics settings. 3DFM will not so anything other than the Script except adding things to the d3dx.ini for automatic settings the correct formula. And 3DFM will der FOV 80 currently that have issues. Looking better is not perfect and the game is perfect if you will not fail. You can also reinstall the fix and read the description for settings up the game without the Script exe by directly starting the Metroexodus.exe. ich only have to do some config changes.

  22. Are you using EDID-K mod????

    ReplyDelete
  23. No iam not using edid mode as ive asus pg27vq 3d vision compatible monitor and after launching from ometroexodus.exe i can change shadows light correction with - key but none of it my match my current game settings i.e ultra.
    And always first time launching from ometroexodus.exe game crashes from going into menu but on 2nd attempt it goes into game menu but in game shadow light correction is not matching.and ive increase game depth along with reduction of convergance.

    1. Hi, Losti here:

      So WHY do you have choosen "YES i am USING Edid" in the starting script? Please start the script, answer the question if you want to use the prev. choosed Settings with NO, than choose "I am NOT using EDID" and go with a 3D-Vision ready game :-)

      Delete
  24. great work dear seems like I got rid of my problem actually shadow light correction was not getting applied due to crashing of game during restarting.thanks lostiii.big thanks to u.

    ReplyDelete
  25. I suppose shadow light correction is suppose to work 2nd time when game has to restart and if game crashes during that time then I guess correction will not be applied according to game settings.

    ReplyDelete

    1. OK this was a bug in the starting script that skipped adding the FOV 70 to the user.cfg ifyou start it a second time. This was caused by the EXE conversation of the script that skipped some jumping marks in the file !! FATAL !! Fixed now! get Version 2.02 and DELETE the exe script, uste the CMD script here ! Your problem should be fixed now!!

      Delete
  26. Hi, Losti here:

    I dont think so because thethe scrippt will apply the Settings BEFORE the game start. Means it will add this to the end of the d3dx.ini file:

    [Shaderoverride_Menue_DetectPreset]
    hash=527431898925ff6d
    if Z11==0.0
    x30= 4.0
    x31= 70.0
    x32= 1.0
    Endif

    x32= 1.0 ==> EDID USAGE
    x32= 0.0 ==> NO-EDID USAGE
    x31= 70.0 ==> FOV (60. or 80. are possible but 80 has reflection Problems in some Areas in the game)
    x30= 4.0 ==> Graphic Preser (1=low/2=med/3=high/4=Ultra/5=extreme)

    All this will be applyed as soon as the shader 527431898925ff6d became active in the game. As this is the main HUD shader it is present from the beginning.

    If the shader is NOT present, as soon as ist present ist applying the Settings.

    Lets assume the game will not apply the Settings automatically, you can set the values for x32/x31 and x30 in the constant sectioon @ the begining of the d3dx.ini to your likes:

    Here you can see this:

    ;shadow depth adjustemnt ref graphic preset
    ;;1.0 = low
    ;;2.0 = medium
    ;;3.0 = high
    ;;4.0 = ultra
    ;;5.0 = extreme
    ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;set x30 matching your in game choosen graphic preset to avoid adaption via "-"-Key after restart
    x30=5.0
    ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;set x30 matching your in game choosen graphic preset to avoid adaption via "-"-Key after restart

    ;FOV
    x31=60.0

    ;EDID-4K use (0=off / 1=on)
    x32=0.0

    Just set it to your likes.

    In some Special cases thegame will kick of the migoto hoock results in a complete unfixed game. You can check this with the "-" key. If you will not get a green text in the lower left, Migoto is "offline". You need to testart the game. Sometimes (depending on your System Performance) you Need to prss the "-" key a bit logner than only tapping it.

    The "-" key will cycle the grapfic correcrion formula "low/med/high/ult/ext" so it will cylce x30 (x30=1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0). This is for user that are switching the graphic in game and do not want to restart. OK may be in some cases the automatic Setup will not be applyed and you do not have changed the x30 constants to your likes in the constant section.

    NOTE: Having x32=0.0 (NO EDID) and x32=1.0 (EDID) will have different formulas. Means having x32=1.0 but NO EDID usage, you will not be able to get the game working, not even with the "-" key.

    1. Than you do not have installed the fix in the Metroexodus main directory or you do not have started the game as admin or you have created a shortcut to the cmd script and use this for starting the game. That will not work! You cannot use shortcut for cmd script to run it. Start it directly from the Metroexodus main directory.

  38. In principal yes but in real live no. All weapon textures have to be adapted and there is no way to do this for shadows lights and reflections for only the weapon. I dont think there is a Shader that disabled only the active weapon so disable is also not an option.

  39. Hi. Love your work, and I have just contributed to you via paypal as a thank you and to keep 3d vision alive.

    However, the performance I am getting from exodus in 3d is terrible. I get very low framerates on medium setting, with hairworks turned off. Have tried multiple suggestions on performance tuning. Still very bad in 3d. I am running 2080ti in sli, with 9900k processor. Do you have any suggestions?

  43. It's strange... but if I try DIY script it always returns ADminError message with empty %SAVEFOLDER% in it. My savefolder is c:\Users\admin\Saved Games\metro exodus\292733975847239680\ and I set full access to Everyone on Saved Games and run script from main game folder as administrator on Win7 x64. Could you simple add 1600x900 resolution in main script? Damn I've almost broke my brain in tryings of reverse enginering of this DIY script...

    1. Hey neova,

      First thing: DO NOT start any cmd script via right click start as Admin. This will make tue Script running in system32 folder and it have to run in the metro folder. Means Start it normal. No right klick as Admin. I should das this to the description. The second thing is that lower resolution than full HD are not working as far as i know. I think the corrections here are different. But please try it. I can check this this evening if i am right that it is not working and if there is a Quick solution i can make this for you and das lower resolutions to the Main Shader RegEx. But no promise. Dont want to spend much Time dir that. Never expected anyone play lower than fullHD. But i will Check posebilities here.

      Delete
    2. I have used DIY script and YEAH its working even for lower resolutions. So just start it without rightklick as admin and you should be able to do it. Something to the thing you asked:

      "Could you simple add 1600x900 resolution in main script?"

      EACH Resolution in combination with a FOV and than with a Graphic preset needs a separate formula for the correction that needs to be caculated. This means tracking down the Constant Buffer 26.z Value from the main screen, write it down, than some script calculation. This has to be done FOR EVERY combination of resolution/FOV/graphi preset. I i skip the low setting because of problems you have 4 graphi presets in game. This means 8 calculations and adding the forumlas to the regex script. You can open MetroExodus_ShaderRegEx_FIX_by_Losti.ini and see what mass of formulas i have added for the resolutions between FULLHD and UHD.

      ==> I will not make any work thats not realy necessary for simply one or 2 users. Thats why i have spend many hrs in the DIY Script. Please just try it again.

      BTW if you run it via right click as admin you should get another error than admin error.....we have to debug your problem. Please contact me @ discord.

    3. Btw. If your save game folder is empty you may have fresh installed the game???Than you need to Start it once without the 3D fix, set up your ingame settings and exit, this will initially create the config file in the save folder.

      Delete
    4. I'had hanging game every time after frame analyse launch at step 2. SAVEFOLDER is empty when you start script second time at the Step 2. But if you manually delete all DYI*.dat files variable will be OK but you'll start from begin. I even made some trick - at the good frame analyse attempt I've copied FrameAnalysis folder to another place, then deleted DYI*.dat files and when game hanged at step 2 I'd copied FrameAnalysis folder to the game folder and continued script

      Delete
    5. Whatever, you will make your way ... ot not ... im done here :-)

      Delete
    6. If I start script normal (not as administrator) the result is the same - ADminError message with correct path c:\Users\admin\Saved Games\metro exodus\292733975847239680\. And I started script via Windows Explorer - not from Total Commander with Administrator privileges

      Delete
    7. I've understood reason after analyse content of script - I haven't *ps-cb8*txt* file in FrameAnalysis folder. May be I should press F8 in loaded game not in Main Menu ? ADminError is your default message

      Delete
    8. So you have completely deinstalled the old fix and replaced by the new one?The hashes for the shaders has been changed.

      Delete
    9. If you are using a cracked Version or an outdated one of the game the nee fix will not work for you!!!

      Delete
  44. Hey Losti, first of all I'm very greatful for your efforts in that amazing 3D fix. Even the reflections on the surface, who are by the way often a tough job, look great. I'm really looking forward to your next fix espacially after the release of Dying Light 2.

    Is in your current fix for Metro Exodus any possibility to change the depth of the cracks and drops on the screen while the gas mask is in use? I would prefere if they are behind the weapon. It would be enough to send me the position and the value in the .ini file I have to change to see them as a pop out like in GTA5 while you are wearing the helmet on a bike. Looking forward to your reply,

    best wishes

  45. hello! appreciate your work with this, i've run into an issue and hope you can help. followed all the steps, but im stuck at launching the game. configured things correctly (or so i thought). i've gotten to the launch step (with the epic games launcher open) and the 0MetroExodus_3DVision script is saying that the game launcher isnt running, thus not trying to launch the binary or however you're going about it. i've tried restarting per the instructions, but hasnt worked. tried launching the 3dvision script while the launcher's running, start the launcher while the script's running, etc., but nothing works. any thoughts on this?

    1. Can you open the taskmamager and tell me the name of the launcher task (exe) ?

      Delete
    2. yes! EpicGamesLauncher.exe, it's also running two processes named UnrealCEFSubProcess. the exe's path on my machine is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Epic Games\Launcher\Portal\Binaries\Win64"

    3. i'll be at work for the next 8 hours, so apologies if i cant reply to this thread until then

    4. Ill check this in about an hr or so. The Script is searching for a task Name. If this is correct than i can imagine that you do not have System Admin provilegues to run the command. But so mit Start as Admin. This will not work. I give you an answer and solution if i have checked some things.

    5. Can you please get this litte script here, copy it to the metro folder and run it?
      https://losti.s3.amazonaws.com/launchercheck.cmd

      This creates 2 TXT files. launchercheck.txt and launchercheck2.txt. Please provide the content for each file here.

      I prefere you contact me @ discord but i see you are at a complete different time zone. so reply here if i am not present @ discord.

      THX.

    6. Damn i hate that i cant edit posts here ^^

      I think i am @ sleep if you return here. Next to the script and the text content you should provide, you can try to disable the task check for the launcher. But this is strange that this fails so i need to know why. BUT you can try to disalbe this and report if this is working for you to start the game:

      open 0MetroExodus_3DVision.cmd in a propper text editor.

      Go to line 607, here you can see these lines:

      tasklist |find /i "EpicGamesLauncher" >nul
      if %errorlevel% == 0 (
      goto EPICVERSION
      ) else (
      goto LAUNCHERNOTRUNNING
      )

      Please replace this with the following, to skip the launcher task check:

      ::tasklist |find /i "EpicGamesLauncher" >nul
      ::if %errorlevel% == 0 (
      goto EPICVERSION
      ::) else (
      ::goto LAUNCHERNOTRUNNING
      ::)

    7. haha no worries. i've been running in admin mode, so i dont think that's it, but i'll dl & run that script you've got in s3 when im home and report back. i'll drop the text files here, if not i can upload to your host of choice. appreciate your help :)

      Delete
    8. did as you said, it says it's found the MetroExodus.exe, but the script hangs for 2s, exits, and the game doesnt start. i would run the script at https://losti.s3.amazonaws.com/launchercheck.cmd but i get an access denied response, could you throw the file up on mega or something?

      Delete
    9. You have a strange System:-) Before i will reupload you also can run the Script even if the game will not Start. Run it and wait until its finished and closed. Than you can run the game from epic launcher directly. You need to do this every game start. But given all this sounds like your launcher is not running :-)

  46. Is there any way to get rid of the screen/visor effects? E.g. frost, and water droplets on gas mask. I like to play games with high convergence on my projector so that the scale matches real life but unfortunately with this game the constant screen effects really mess things up since most of the time the game geometry is closer than the screen effects.

    1. Do you Start the game using 0MetroExodus_3DVision.cmd ??

      Delete
    2. As a data point, this was working great for me here. Graphics and 3D are perfect. Win10 2004, Driver 452.06, using GoG version of game (1.0.7.7) graphics on Ultra, 1080p, and HelixVision/3DFM to do local driver hack and auto-fix the user.cfg file. I had one crash at the start, but uninstalled the fix, ran game once to create settings, then reinstalled, and it was working.

      Tried the 0MetroExodus_3DVision.cmd file, but it does not support the GoG version (user.cfg is in game root), so I used HelixVision/3DFM to make the settings. Blur is properly disabled.

    1. The Crash can be normal. Change it without having 3D enabled. If you suffer from blur you may have installed the fix wrong or the config changes was not made. Nur if you use 3DFM everything should be cool. No idea. Use DDU fpr driver clean up and install driver 425.31

  61. Did you guys play this game through the 3D Vision driver? The stereo is just great and the game itself is interesting, but I have such a defect - in the upper right corner a rectangle is formed about 1/5 part of the height of the screen and 1/3 from the width of the screen in which there is no stereo, i.e. simply 2D in this rectangle.
