FXAA Injector

FXAA (Fast Approximate Antialiasing) should only be used in three situations:

1)MSAA+TRAA is not supported
2)MSAA/SSAA is too costly
3)Used as MSAA+FXAA to get rid of aliasing that MSAA/TRAA do not work on (in this case the FXAA strength should be dialed down a bit)

FXAA PPI version is easier to configure and includes extra, optional post processing filters such as tonemap, sepia, bloom, anaglyph 3D and vignette.
The inject tool features an even easier to use GUI, speeding up the time required to find the desired configuration.

Place all the files in your main 2K12 folder

This is my setup

Place this in the injFX_Shaders folder

Run FXAA_Tool.exe. Then tweak it to your liking.

Place all the files from MyGame including that folder into your 2K12 folder.

Cool. I didn't know that this worked outside of skyrim. Can you post some screen shots in-game?

[JaoSming]

for some reason steam overlay crashed on me so I dont have the before/after shots I took, but it works great.

I think I'm just going to use it for the AA/Sharpness though. We can tweak contrast/HDR/etc and each come up with different values we like.

I just tested this, and I agree. You can get radically different visuals by playing with the settings. Great find.

Although i haven't got a hang of the sharpness settings yet, only using 'Post sharpen power' maxed out.

I just maxed all the AA and sharpness settings

I tried this with the followings settings that I got from Operation Sports Forums > Basketball > NBA 2K > NBA 2K PC Forum:

____(AntiAliasing)_________
-FXAA Quality> 9
-Blur Amount> 5
-Contrast Threshold> 9
-Darkness Threshold>9

_____(SHARPEN)________________
-High Quality Sharpen>checked/ON
-Pre Sharpen Power>3
-Blur Threshold>3
-Edge Threshold>3
-Contour Threshold>1
-Post Sharpen Power>3


_______(HDR) I have off._________

_______(Bloom) I have off.________

_______(ToneMap)______________
-Gamma>4
-Exposure>4
-Saturation>6
-Bleach>1
-Fog>5

________(TechniColor) I have Off.____

________(Sepia) I have Off._________

It's good, but still in my opinion 2k12 Crystal Clear Photo Mod (http://downloads.moddingway.com/file/15326.html) makes the game look as real as it gets. If you try out 2k12 Crystal Clear Photo Mod make sure you try the version called "2k12 Crystal Clear Photo Mod" and not "Crystal Clear Super Color Photo Mod".

Yeah that's my settings from OperationSports. You can also use both enb and FXAA together. Copy your FXAA files to the NBA2k12 folder then change the d3d9.dll from your FXAA files to something like d3d9injFX.dll then move all of your enb files to the NBA2k12 folder and in the enbseries config folder you change the following:
[PROXY]
EnableProxyLibrary=1
InitProxyFunctions=1
ProxyLibrary=d3d9injFX.dll

This is with no mods currently installed...YET just FXAA.

what about the other setttings did u just leave those unchecked?

[chicagoRAW]

if i use this with enb the frame rate is in the high 50's but its laggy

InitProxyFunctions=1

I also tried this option (enb + FXAA), but since I couldn't notice no visual improvement (no FPS drop..even with both mods applied, I am still having 60 FPS since I have Vsync ON..without Vsync its about 90-100 FPS) I went back to just having ENB mod. Are there any improvement to be noticed that I didn't ?

Really? What settings did you have on the FXAA? My frame rate was still high basically like normal but it was laggy for some reason and i always have vsync on.

Well with both ENB + FXAA I did notice a certain random lag, but no FPS drop. I used the same above posted FXAA settings

My system specs:
MOBO: GA-P55A-UD4
CPU: i7-860 @4,11ghz (1,360v vcore) cooled by TR U-120 Extreme
RAM: Corsair Dominator GT DDR3 (2x2GB) @1960Mhz (7-7-5)
SSD: OCZ Vertex 2 100 GB
HDD: WD VelociRaptor 300 GB
VGA: Saphire Vapor-X HD 5870 Rev. 2 (@950/1300)
SOUND: Creative SOUND BLASTER X-Fi Xtreme Music
PSU: Zalman ZM850-HP

Yea I have no problem running games. Just enb + FXAA gave lag consistantly. Just went back to enb. But i did notice it to be a little more crips with both of them enabled. Basically for FXAA I just maxed out the Anti-aliasing settings like posted above and left the color alone.
I have a 120GB OCZ Agility 3 SSD
AMD 1055T O'clock @ 3.72
4 GB DDR3 Ram Corsair Dominators
GTX 570 overclocked when i play
etc.
