Tone mapping

• For this filter, I have been working to implement my custom tonemap, 'ExilitayRealism'. It's based on Uchimura tonemapping, but is more advanced and created to my spec.

• Compared to Uchimura, my tonemap has a more pronounced S curve; therefore, there's slightly more contrast in the highlights and shadows, and the mid-tones are more flattened out.

• I have also tweaked the values of the normal Uchimura from v1.06, and I've added a 'FilmicContrast' slider for the 'Sensitometric' tonemap.

Color Grading

• There are now seven color grades to choose from: Exilitay_Autumn, Exilitay_Summer, Exilitay_Film, Exilitay_Cinematic, Exilitay_Pop, Exilitay_Winter, and Exilitay_NFS.

• Here is an example of some of them below:
  
  

Reflections

• There are still 3 presets to choose from: Default, Exilitay-Spec & Shiny. There are also additional reflection strength sliders for both day & night.

• As well as a 'Polarizing Filter' slider, which reduces window reflections and glare, intensifies colors, and darkens skies, enhancing the contrast and clarity.

• I have also added a new 'Iridescence Effect' slider, which adjusts that rainbow look on glass, such as headlights; however only works on cars that support it.

Glare Presets

• In this update, I have completely reworked the glare & bloom. I have also added a new Glare Preset, 'Star' & 'Bloom'.

• I've also changed the adjustment sliders to make it easier to adjust each specific setting.

• Here is an example of some of them below:

Color Profiles

• I made changes to each color profile, and there are still seven to choose from: Exilitay-Color, Spicy, Grey, Warm, Cold, NFS and Neutral.

• Here is an example of some of them below:

Exilitay Realism v1.06 vs v1.07

• It's hard to tell in just one photo, but I've made a huge improvement to the overall visuals for this update. I've focused on enhancing auto exposure, colors, bloom & tonemapping.

• I've practically re-coded my color profiles, exposure & bloom code. This filter also features tunnel blinding and improved auto exposure/adaptation.

• I also focused on world lighting in this update, specifically shadows & tones, sun lighting, lights & emissives, and ambient lighting, which look a whole lot better compared to v1.06.

Exposure & Tunnel Blinding

• In this update, I've coded my implementation of tunnel blinding, which emulates the exposure increase/flash on a camera when in an occluded area and entering & exiting tunnels.

• I've fine-tuned and improved the auto-exposure & exposure adaptation drastically, alongside adding a couple more exposure sliders to fine-tune the exposure during day & night, as well as separate interior exposure adjustments.

Additional changes made:

• Fixed that big glare star bug that would sometimes show at night,

• Added more adjustment sliders for Glare & Bloom,

• Reworked the GodRays & MoonRays & tweaked the default values,

• Replaced 'Exilitay NewYork' Color Grade with 'Exilitay Winter' & also added 'Exilitay Pop,

• Renamed 'Cinematic' Color Profile to 'Exilitay Spec' as they were very similar,

• Removed Fog customisation sliders,

• 'Exilitay Style Fog' checkbox is in the 'World' tab,

• Removed Lottes tonemap & replaced it with my custom tonemap,
