Redesigned volumetric clouds in SEUS! Honestly, might be the best graphics work I've ever done. 1ms @ 1080p on a GTX 1080, and they cost nothing if you're not looking at them!

I've been working on ReShade shaders! I started a motion estimation shader that was originally only meant to be good enough for basic temporal filtering for AO, but now it's good enough to use for full TAA and motion blur!

Some more info: The images were taken with in-game AA, motion blur, and AO turned off, to demonstrate my own work on these effects. Motion estimation took around 3.4 ms at 4k on an RTX 3080 in these images. The motion blur shader itself is still very rough!

It's interesting to see it render motion blur on things that normally wouldn't get them like the flame particles here. If it appears to move, it'll get motion blur! Some rough edges, but it all looks pretty good in motion.
