How much does it require from your PC? I'm already having FPS issues on some maps, so I don't know if it's worth trying.

the following solution has been given by SAM. You can find it on the first page :

Known bugs :
using ALT+TAB will crash the game (you can use Fake Fullscreen to fix this issue for now)

Or will the shift+F.. button, switching ENB OFF ingame, make Alt-Tab possible when switched off? (Or will ENB still be "running" somehow and make PR crash?)

Its alright for me, just a lot of contrast and sharpness, but I can probably tweak it for my own settings :)

Looks awesome though!

That's an interesting question. Reminder that it's RIGHT Shift + F12. I just tested this and, unfortunately, it's the latter and will still crash anyway (I was flanking an enemy last night and had him in my iron sights when damn Windows decided to install an "important" update and forced Alt + Tab asking to reboot! Grr..).

If you need to Alt + Tab only to restart Mumble, you actually don't have to. You could set a key to bring up the Mumble overlay, create a new Mumble server favourite (defaults to mumble.realitymod.com), and disconnect (shortcut Ctrl + F4) and reconnect (shortcut Ctrl + O, then Enter) in the in-game overlay.

For those wondering what's "eye adoption" from the thread's first post, it's the mimic-ing of the human pupil reacting or adjusting to light, i.e. when you're outside a building at day time, rooms inside appear dark; but when you walk inside, it's suddenly brighter and easier to see. Unfortunately again, this only works in certain maps. If I'm not mistaken, it's due to the lack of light difference between the inside and outside caused by a high value set for environment/ ambient/ global/ minimum brightness for the map. So this has to be changed at map level.

All in all, I think this is a must-have for PR (I'm still considering Anders Soundmod while is awesome is also reportedly not accurate). Installation was quick and painless (for some reason, I didn't even have to overwrite any BF2 files and so should be easy to roll-back), colours are richer and more realistic, textures appear more crisp, desert maps actually look hot, and it made me squint looking at the sun!

The only thing I don't like about it is the blue tint in menus (white text is now pale blue), and pressing Enter doesn't quite register when logging in and at the server query filter fields (have to hold Enter instead). Bug?

ya agree, would love to see it in 1.0 (and everyone should learn to play in window mode anyway :D more productive during mapload imo )

Afaik BF2 in windowed mode will make the pixels in the windowed mode/ingame even smaller (they seem to get closer together), by that some details might get smaller (harder to see) / disappear too... ?

it should. Just try it. You shouldn't be able to damage anything, so worth a shot.

Downloaded extracted and BF2 Stops working before splash screen...forgot to back up.
Win 7 64 Bit.
REBOOT - SOLVED FTW.

Says 'Half Life 2' Version during splash.

Not tested in game yet. Full servers. Desperately waiting for 1.0 player increase.

You can delete the files. Check which files are part of the installation (only 5 or 6 IIRC). They are all in the directory that you installed them to. No sudirectories. Delete the files and that's it. Uninstalled. ;)

Thanks for this. Like it a lot.

I have a question though. I now have a fps counter in the top left of my screen. How do I turn it off?
