Please note when tweaking settings that higher numbers does not
always equal better (nor does lower).
Finding the best settings for your game and your taste is about
finding just the right amount to apply.
If you made a good setttings preset please share it with your
friends, on forums and websites,
and/or submit it to the SweetFX Settings Database :

aliasing : Smoothens jagged lines using the SMAA technique.

aliasing : Smoothens jagged lines using the FXAA technique
#define USE_CARTOON 0 // [0 or 1] Cartoon :

#define USE_ADVANCED_CRT 0 // [0 or 1] Advanced CRT
: Simulates an old CRT TV display. Set gaussian blur along with it to
get a halation effect
#define USE_BLOOM 0 // [0 or 1] Bloom : Makes
bright lights bleed their light into their surroundings (relatively
high performance cost)

actual HDR - It just tries to mimic an HDR look (relatively high
performance cost)
#define USE_LUMASHARPEN 1 // [0 or 1] LumaSharpen :
Also sharpens the antialiased edges which makes them less smooth -
I'm working on fixing that.
#define USE_GAUSSIAN 0 // [0 or 1] DX9 only -
Gaussian Blur : can be used to... blur, but also bloom/hazy/glowy
look, also unsharp masking
#define USE_FILMGRAIN 0 // [0 or 1] Filmgrain
effect
#define USE_TECHNICOLOR 0 // [0 or 1] TECHNICOLOR :
Attempts to mimic the look of an old movie using the Technicolor
three-strip color process (Techicolor Process 4)
#define USE_DPX 0 // [0 or 1] Cineon DPX :
Should make the image look like it's been converted to DXP Cineon -
basically it's another movie-like look similar to technicolor.
#define USE_MONOCHROME 0 // [0 or 1] Monochrome :
Monochrome makes the colors disappear.
#define USE_LIFTGAMMAGAIN 1 // [0 or 1] Lift Gamma
Gain : Adjust brightness and color of shadows, midtones and

Darkens the edges of the image to make it look more like it was shot
with a camera lens. May cause banding artifacts.
#define USE_DITHER 0 // [0 or 1] Dither :
Applies dithering to simulate more colors than your monitor can
display. This lessens banding artifacts (mostly caused by Vignette)
#define USE_BORDER 0 // [0 or 1] Border :
Makes the screenedge black as a workaround for the bright edge that
forcing some AA modes sometimes causes.
#define USE_SPLITSCREEN 0 // [0 or 1] Splitscreen :

color edge detection (slower but slightly more acurate) - 0 uses luma
edge detection (faster)

HARDWARE? (software version doesn't matter) if so this needs to be 1
- If not, leave it at 0.
