=O!!!

Nice... but what else does it add aside for the bloom?

EDIT: Tested it for a few minutes with ShW, the bloom was blinding o_o Also problems with graphical glitches/artifacts.

You can always edit the bloom effect's settings y'know.

@Sic: Yes If your PC is capable of it.

Some tweaking of the ini is necessary for it to look the best, but it looks weird... and amazing having ZH with shader 2.0.

[fjsgdfsdjgbsgkjfg]

Any chances of a 4.0 (DX10) version
Nice i gotta try this

[Kris]

After trying, I honestly like ZH WITHOUT the bloom lights. The Bloom lights just burns my eyes real bad. X_X

[Waris]

Now you know

I been screwing aroudn with this thing but I can't get a decent look out of it, could u share what u tweaked and how or perhaps upload the ini file?

[Lord Atlantis]

At the moment, I am still tweaking out the .ini so the lense flare isn't so... BAM! Right now, to prevent EVERYTHING from having that shining effect as much, I lowered the game's brightness to nothing. I'm still messing around with the bloom settings, but the game does distinguish between the "Day" and "Night" settings. Once I find a good batch of settings Ill throw up the .ini text for you all.

Aww it's not so bad, you'll just feel a looong and paiNFUL BURNING AFTER THIS!! /Thrax

[Lord Atlantis]

As of right now, I've found what controls how much bloom there is. Right now I'm fine tuning how much bloom makes it look good.

[CoLT]

Great! Upload if you would be so kind when you're finished, Atlantis.
I want to try it later without burning my eyelids off.

Here is the code to the ebseries.ini file. How I adjusted the bloom is so its a nice addition to the already superb graphics that are in ShockWave, but isn't the focus. Feel free to make suggestions to it here.
