You could achieve the same result, but you have to copy values from PTA to TS.

This is about a PTA preset that can be fine tuned to each personal taste with EF , as everyone uses different sky/cloudsets and has calibrated the displays differently...

is it possible to only activate the reflections in tomatoshade and just elt EV do all the rest of shading..? and if so what?

 

Would I also achieve nice results? 🙂

No TS NO PTA.

But an update.

Today I turned ON within SF & EF HDR clouds etc, Turned ON P3D HDR so to let HDR work in EF. Today I did not change any setting in EF mini UI, I did nothing.

I lost my dark green lights in the FSL for the FD and LS but it did make a huge difference using HDR and EF using all its HDR in AUTO.

 

 

 

 

I personally prefer indeed the ASP4 + SF + EF combo with P3Dv4.5HF1 HDR and since my hardware upgrade (I9-9900KF / 32gb /  and 2080 and several M2 drives) I can use far more shadow settings.

This alone transformed the sim into a different experience in it's own, to have far more objects receive and cast shadow stuff in combination with EF is an amazing experience here local.

I've got a profile for you that was shared which does that... sent me a PM

At this point I don't use TS or PTA shaders...

Like I wrote : the preset will be released tomorrow.

Make sure you first have installed the default Shaders. Then install EF. 

Load the preset with PTA and close PTA. Run EF and use manual mode , so not Automated, as there are expressions in the PTA preset ( already making dynamic changes ). 

Use the EF sliders for finetuning to your liking, as one may like more saturated colors and someone else likes less bright colors etc.

Keep in mind that sky colors have a big influence on the overall look. So someone with Skyforce might finetune different from someone using ASCA or freeware skies.
