Sharpening can be particularly useful in games with “muddy” textures like the Dishonored or Bioshock series. Other interesting options are HDR which tries to mimic real HDR, and LUMASHARPEN which can be used to sharpen the detail of characters and items. You can turn on FXAA or SMAA Anti-aliasing by typing a boolean value (1 for “on”, 0 for “off”), but make sure to turn Anti-aliasing off in the game visual settings, as SweetFX will replace it. Opening the SweetFX_Settings.txt file will reveal a host of options. You can personalize your games further by creating your own SweetFX profiles, or editing existing ones. After installing the SweetFX preset, and using the in-built SMAA, performance improved to 58 fps average, along with a boost in visual quality. With the game settings set to Ultra and TXAA turned on, we averaged 52.3 fps. The preset used was “| ULTRA TXAA | NO BLUR” by Sp00ky. By disabling the Anti-aliasing processing in-game and using SweetFX’s SMAA instead, in conjunction with a sharpening filter, we can achieve not only better graphics but also improved performance. Some games that are poorly optimized like Dishonored 2 can greatly benefit from certain SweetFX profiles.
