Default Boom effect and distance blur in EQ client

Hey guys, was messing around with some software found here: http://enbdev.com/index_en.htm and was able to get it working with EQ. I like the bloom effect after some tweeking and the distance blur is pretty awesome although my laptop struggles to run it, Ill upload a How-to later, just wanted to see if you all had any interest first.

The bloom adds a great blend to the world if done in small amounts, I kinda had everything a little exaggerated for the video. The distance blur makes the game look oblivion-like IMO, kinda cool! you may also notice in the video that I have the newer textures and char textures found on this form (that's why the humans and robes look so clean)

The program offers a few other options I was not able to get working, One being reflections. It would be so awesome to see yourself in someones shiny helmet reflection, but no dice. I also couldn't really notice a difference with occlusion effects on (not even quite sure what that means)

Watch the video, Click here Make sure its in HD! Its kinda hard to tell the difference as is.

thanks Runlvlzero!

Kevynne, On the website http://enbdev.com/index_en.htm , It offers the ability to add Direct X effects to any DX8 or 9 game. I will post my set up and tutorial in a couple days probably, still experimenting with it.

I added some more screenshots.

My magical weapon fool! I guess you didn't notice but some items have a light effect to them which give the same result as if you had a greater lightstone in your inventory.
