// Set to 1 for ON or 0 for OFF

#define USE_SMAA_ANTIALIASING 0 // [0 or 1] SMAA Anti-aliasing :
Smoothens jagged lines using the SMAA technique.
#define USE_FXAA_ANTIALIASING 0 // [0 or 1] FXAA Anti-aliasing :
Smoothens jagged lines using the FXAA technique
#define USE_CA 0 // [0 or 1] Chromatic aberration. You
can only use Chromatic Aberration OR the Explosion Shader. Not both at the same
time.
#define USE_EXPLOSION 0 // [0 or 1] Explosion : Scatters the
pixels, making the image look fuzzy.
#define USE_CARTOON 0 // [0 or 1] Cartoon : "Toon"s the
image.(Interferes with SMAA, CRT, Bloom, HDR and Lumasharpen)
#define USE_LEVELS 0 // [0 or 1] Levels : Sets a new black
and white point. This increases contrast but causes clipping. Use Curves instead if
you want to avoid that.
#define USE_ADVANCED_CRT 0 // [0 or 1] Advanced CRT : Simulates an
old CRT TV display. Set gaussian blur along with it to get a halation effect
#define USE_BLOOM 0 // [0 or 1] Bloom : Makes bright lights
bleed their light into their surroundings (relatively high performance cost)
#define USE_HDR 1 // [0 or 1] HDR : Not actual HDR - It
just tries to mimic an HDR look (relatively high performance cost)
#define USE_LUMASHARPEN 1 // [0 or 1] LumaSharpen : Also sharpens
the antialiased edges which makes them less smooth - I'm working on fixing that.
#define USE_GAUSSIAN 0 // [0 or 1] Gaussian Blur : can be used
to... blur, but also bloom/hazy/glowy look, also unsharp masking
#define USE_FILMGRAIN 0 // [0 or 1] Filmgrain effect
#define USE_TECHNICOLOR 0 // [0 or 1] TECHNICOLOR : Attempts to
mimic the look of an old movie using the Technicolor three-strip color process
(Techicolor Process 4)
#define USE_DPX 1 // [0 or 1] Cineon DPX : Should make
the image look like it's been converted to DXP Cineon - basically it's another
movie-like look similar to technicolor.
#define USE_MONOCHROME 0 // [0 or 1] Monochrome : Monochrome
makes the colors disappear.
#define USE_LIFTGAMMAGAIN 0 // [0 or 1] Lift Gamma Gain : Adjust
brightness and color of shadows, midtones and highlights (avoids clipping)
#define USE_TONEMAP 1 // [0 or 1] Tonemap : Adjust gamma,
exposure, saturation, bleach and defog. (may cause clipping)

saturates (or desaturates if you use negative values) the pixels depending on their
original saturation.
#define USE_CURVES 0 // [0 or 1] Curves : Contrast
adjustments using S-curves.
#define USE_SEPIA 1 // [0 or 1] Sepia : Sepia tones the
image.
#define USE_VIGNETTE 1 // [0 or 1] Vignette : Darkens the
edges of the image to make it look more like it was shot with a camera lens. May
cause banding artifacts.
#define USE_DITHER 1 // [0 or 1] Dither : Applies dithering
to simulate more colors than your monitor can display. This lessens banding
artifacts (mostly caused by Vignette)
#define USE_BORDER 0 // [0 or 1] Border : Makes the
screenedge black as a workaround for the bright edge that forcing some AA modes
sometimes causes.
#define USE_SPLITSCREEN 0 // [0 or 1] Splitscreen : Enables the
before-and-after splitscreen comparison mode.

#define USE_CUSTOM 0 // [0 or 1] Custom : Write your own

shader by editing custom.h, and then enable it here.

detection (slower but slightly more acurate) - 0 uses luma edge detection (faster)
