Interesting, I read about this in THG, it improves blurs and light/particle shading by making it work in-game and cuts back on system resources right?
What parts of HL2 would it affect especially? (That I need to watch out for)

Genius is always allowed some leeway, once the hammer has been pried from its hands and the blood has been cleaned up.
To improve is to change; to be perfect is to change often.

Gah, THG isn't the best source 
Lets just say(2nd hand testesmony) it looks amazing, even on a broken FX5700.
EDIT: better review of what HDR is

Neither HDR nor bloom work for me, and I have a 6800 which is an SM3.0 card. This is probably because the HL2 singleplayer and multiplayer don't have HDR maps yet.
BTW, those screenshots you linked to don't look any different from a non-HDR shot.

"Right now we can tell you a report was filed by the family of a 12 year old boy yesterday afternoon alleging Mr. Michael Jackson of criminal activity. A search warrant has been filed and that search is currently taking place. Mr. Jackson has not been charged with any crime. We cannot specifically address the content of the police report as it is confidential information at the present time, however, we can confirm that Mr. Jackson forced the boy to listen to the Howard Stern show and watch the movie Private Parts over and over again."
This update apparently introduces some bugs, and this has led to complaints in the Steam forums.Ace Pace wrote:They did to meConfusing, but fits the confused nature of this update that no one reported, didn't appear on Steam update,theres a massive optimisation and Source engine update coming monday though.
But really, I know bloom when I see it. If bloom and/or HDR is really working then the effect is so subtle that I can't tell the difference. I've seen bloom from Garry's Mod and other games - light will bleed over polygon edges and that certainly isn't happening here. HDR definately isn't working because I would see exposure effects, richer colors, and bloom as a side effect but that isn't here either, not even in the screens.

Then I guess this was a false alarm
