poeNullEffects - for any PoE version.

You're right, editing shadows.ffx file doesn't make shadows invisible anymore.
At least it doesn't inpact on other functions and it doesn't crash the game lol.

I didn't check what's going on yet but seems like "delve lights and shadows" became global features. Not sure if we really need to disable them atm.

Is there anything we can do to disable them at the moment with the version that we have or do we wait for you to patch it? The shadows is the only thing that wrecks my computer :P

You can try to edit some vars in hlsl files (GGPK Search -> .hlsl -> Export -> edit -> Import -> check ingame -> repeat)
It could take a lot of time tho.

There's another issue: No Dead Bodies. Now GGG has changed monster.ot file format too. So it's like shadows#2 in the beggining of another chase. I'm not going to participate in it.

No fixes in the near future, sorry.

Why is No Dead Bodies an issue. Works fine with the last version on your GitHub. Also I don't really know what you mean by search vars in hlsl files, ill give it a go. I don't care if it takes me a lot of time, but what should I look out for when trying to disable shadows? Also thank you for answering in advance.

[poebota5]

we can do it together if you teach

I mean lines like:
#define <some_variable> <some_number> -> #define <some_variable> 0
return <some_object>; -> return <same_type_object_but_with_zero_fields>;
etc.
If you don't know hlsl, it's pure luck, don't waste your time, no guarantee you'll find the correct line. I've tried few oblivious edits in *shadows.hlsl file - got nothing.
Also GGG could hardcoded (.exe) the main checking function. In this case we're doomed.

Maybe you somehow loaded an old 3.4 backup with older monster.ot file and then applied No Dead Bodies function? My app definitely has no pattern for the latest monster.ot.
Or GGG made some different .ggpk patches for different users (?).

[gloomyr666]

btw just a tip - poe smoother (app) is up for 3.5 and it deletes corpses and shadows too. :O
maybe they found way to do it
i testd it, looks fine so far. idk,maybe there will be some glitches, but so far for a day mapping didnt found any

poe started to load slower than usual with this after the last patch. there is no problem without using it tho. is something wrong with shadows or deadbodies? im using 1 emitter no shadows no deadbodies option.

edit: tried 1 emitter option without applying shadows and bodies option and result is the same. somehow game doesn't use any ram but using 25 cpu constantly?

edit2: started to get in the game with 1 emitter option but still takes 2-3 minutes to just load the main screen.

edit3: clearing minimap cache files seems to do the trick. all is well now.

Update and remarks.

There are really important particle based effects in the final Betrayal boss fight, check some new "Except" rules.
The new "No Dead Bodies" parsing method was added as well. The logic is still the same. If GGG will change their monster.ot file format again, app doesn't edit it: "don't corrupt files" is my main goal.

"Disable Shadows" feature is no more the default option for several reasons. Well, you can still copy a modified Shadows.ffx file (or other - check config.ini: "localShadowsFile" & "ggpkShadowsPath") in the app/data/ folder and use it as before. Just make sure it's correct and you know what you're doing.

In the end we got what I wanted from the beginning - the tool for any PoE version without any attached files made by GGG.

someone have good except list for particles removing, or list for removing most annoing particles, becouse full nulling looks awful, alot of invisible projectiles and attacks etc.
