Hi Guys,

So i found that sweetfx works with Fallout 2, by setting the hires config to directx 9. Why is this good? well you can add shaders to the game, i've been experimenting with crt shaders that give the game a look similar to what it would look like on an old school crt monitor. Mind you I'm not very knowledgeable about sweetfx so perhaps others will be more successful than me!
Here's the shader im using, its a port of timothy lottes crt shader to sweetfx. I just copied the contents of the extracted files to my fallout 2 directory. Then go into the sweetfx_settings.txt file. change the advanced crt resolution to whatever you have fallout 2 set at. I also turned off the curvature barrel effect by changing that value from a 1 to a 0. I set my fallout 2 to 1920x1080 with x2 scaling in the f2 hi res config.

The attached image shows what it looks like. jpeg doesn't quite do it justice due to compression.

gog won't let me post links so just google "CeeJayDK lotte's sweetfx" its in a reddit post.
