I have asked CS about whether the use of Sweetfx and RadeonPro can get your account suspended, they replied saying that whilst they could not specifically say which programs were allowed or not, they confirmed that they found no programs that would cause any problems on my PC. I was using SweetFX and RadeonPro at the time. Read into that what you will.

not really sure what dynamic contrast is. I do not own a TV and I wouldn't get caught dead on a console.2nd pic looks like the game is running in dynamic contrast mode to which I have on my TV via PS3 version
Saw 2nd video yep dynamic contrast for sure looks to be about medium level
the game has much more detail in objects and everything is clear, the game just seems hazy and low quality without sweetfx on.
Which is something id expect from them as its a logical move to not outright ban people but instead try to understand how programs like this function. Also as to why so many people are using them because of the current state of the industry releasing 8 year old graphics in games. Its a smart move to stop and try to grasp why tons of pc gamers have resorted to increasing graphics on their own, due to the industry failing to deliver good enough quality to pc gamers. That's smart business and may even help put them ahead of the curve.

Thanks for sharing this, never heard of SweetFX before. Also thanks Myrken for sharing your settings, I'm using them and the difference is amazing. Looks beautiful.
Why thank you I'm glad you like them.

Finally tried out SweetFX on Definace. It works flawlessly, and improves the visual quality immensely.
I currently have a variant of the Defiance HD settings running and tweaked it to accentuate the hard lines to make it more 'cartoonish.' I always liked the almost cell shaded design Defiance went with, but I wish they went all the way- theirs is like a hybrid. The game's visuals look very similar to Borderlands now.
Its annoying we can't get an official answer.
I had sweetfx running, then took it off as someone said they got banned for it.
The game looks like ***, has jacks **** for graphics options. All this high end PC hardware for nothing.
Do they just dole out a 24 hour ban? If so might just run it to see what happens, if I only get a 24 hour ban, then remove it.
Just don't want a perma ban, already spend $100 on game and pass, jesus.
Just put this on my game and wow its beautiful.
Could this program be used to reduce the graphics?
