Chameleon Post Process

Since you gave a 1 star review with the comment below;

When I purchased this I assumed wrongly that these were modular, they are not. You place a BluePrint into the level then it loads all the effects. This may sound good but if you only want to use a few effects you are still loading about 165 MEGS of texture memory. Also there is a ticket that is constantly running in the BluePrint.

If I had to do it over again I would have purchased the Post Process Blendables Volume 1 by Sameek Kundu for half the price and it is modular.

I did ask the developer about everything I posted here and he said that you will have to manually take his BluePrint apart. I spent at least 4 hours reverse engineering and was able to finally get them into individual BluePrints but like I said, I should have bought Sameek Kundu’s instead of this one.

I am not the only one who said this, I was looking in the forum and other people have brought these same points up. I would think the developer would want to make his product with better performance but he does not seem to care.

Please let me inline with my answers. No want to make this conversation further yet I’m using my right to answer each and of those claims.

> Why you assumed this “wrongly”****?

You place a BluePrint into the level then it loads all the effects.

> Wrong. It only uses the enabled effects.

This may sound good but if you only want to use a few effects you are still loading about 165 MEGS of texture memory.

> TRUE.

Also there is a ticket that is constantly running in the BluePrint.

> If not, how can it know your changes? Again this tick is only for enabled effects.

> You said:

Would it be possible to carve out 3 or 4 of the Post Process volumes? If I have a blank map and then load your BP it automatically takes up 160 MEGS of Texture memory. It would be better if these were broken up into individual BluePrints.

I replied:

This can be done by modifying the Chameleon blueprint. Keep in mind though, future updates would overwrite your changes so making your changes on a clone blueprint would be a smart move.

but like I said, I should have bought Sameek Kundu’s instead of this one.

> So much smell of advertisement.

I am not the only one who said this, I was looking in the forum and other people have brought these same points up.

> You wouldn’t believe the feature requests I’ve received over the years.

I would think the developer would want to make his product with better performance but he does not seem to care.

PS: You could just ask for a refund though.
