SSAO for NBA 2K13- Radeon graphics card

I'm not sure if anyone else is aware, but i recently found this program for Radeon graphics cards. Its called RadeonPro, and you can use this program to apply ambient occlusion for 2K. Here is the link to the website: http://www.radeonpro.info/en-US/Changelog_Preview.aspx
If you want stronger Ambient occlusion for the game go to this link and it will tell you what to do: http://community.radeonpro.info/questions/339

i'm going to check this out first thing in the morning, praying wife and son are better, so i can boot up my pc

Yeah make sure you do that

It would be really helpful if there was a step by step guide

I have not noticed a difference ... if someone has a preview of the game, I would love to look more

I'm gonna do a tutorial later

watch this for some of the basics: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rj8-PpmJ6pI

To apply the ambient occlusion, go to settings (it looks like two gears on the top of the page)
Then go to Ambient Occlusion and select "Enable Ambient Occlusion"
Where it says "Toggle ambient occlusion" make your own hotkey to disable or enable it in the game. For example i set mine to Shift+Control+F3. So while in game if i want to turn it off or on, I just press the hotkey i have it assigned to
If you want your ambient occlusion stronger go to the second row where it says nba2k13.exe and click it once and then click edit. Where it says variables, it should automatically have it set to nearZ:1.0,farZ:5000.
If you want it stronger just LOWER the farZ number, but make sure the nearZ is not higher than the farZ. I have mine set to nearZ:1.0,farZ:1000, but it depends on how strong your graphics card is. When you're done click save in both windows.

In the visuals tab at the main menu of RadeonPro click the box to enable the AO and pick either HBAO or volumetric AO and pick the quality of the AO. then right click on the 2K profile you have and click apply now, then start the game

Go here to see the effect the AO on games. They give you a before and after picture: http://imgur.com/a/lMhri#89

Click on profile not global. Then select the quality

tried that, nothing changes.

I have a problem ... I can not run the game until the application is open. If I start the game as an administrator then the program does not work

Mine only gives me a slight shadowing around the jerseys and faces. But the shadow in your screen is just WOW :O Tell us more about it please.

Is there some rule where the game is installed must be? To me the game is installed on the D partition. Windows, of course, to C. I do all right but the game does not want to start off: (

Same thing is happening to me. I even reinstaled my driver. The result stil the same.

I solved the problem about starting ... But, I still do not see a tremendous difference
