Hello Guys !!
The long awaited update is here !!

This update will look like nothing before
Is not often that a complete rework happens, but I guess today is not often xd
There was 2 main things that completely changed the look of the filter and many others also had to be updated to comply with this changes

The first and the biggest thing was the new exposure control
This was absolutely massive...
Changed completely how the filter controls light
It now uses CBE, its basically a very good algorithm
CBE controls the light in a very realistic way, having many parameters in mind, like reflections
This algorithm allows for good light control in high dynamic range situations and doesnt get confused with reflections
Appart from the algorithm itselft, with some help from Peter Boese himself, managed to improve on it
It is much brighter and realistic and it is also dynamic
Will adapt from day to night and will even have camera FOV in mind, this way when you zoom into the picture the exposure stays stable
Lovely for those high zoom photos

The second big thing is gamma
With the brighter exposure I managed to lower the gamma significantly
This allow for much higher contrast without clipping the dark areas
Gone is that greyish look that reminds you it is a game, now you´ll have a much higher and realistic contrast with rich dark areas and crispy bright ones

These very big changes asked for many other things to be also updated
The tonemap was updated, due to its dynamic behavior, it is able to adapt better to bright areas during the day and also to the darkness of the night, having better visibility
The ambient lighting also needed optimizations, since the overall look is much brighter there is no need to compensate with extra ambient light, making it more correct and good looking
There were advances in the Improved Reflections option, it too is now dynamic, leading to great looking reflections in every scenario you put it to
The sun light also needed tuning, it is more realistic now with better intensity and color
Headlights and light poles now have a more realistic intensity also, leading to more immersive night driving
Color temperature was also improved along with many more optimizations and bugfixes

Intallation
Extract zip into the Assetto directory
Select RealityFilter
Gotta say I like Pure Gamma a little more, but have a try and choose the one that suits better
Wont bother you with more details xd
Hope you guys like it
Go try it out !
Have fun !

Bug was caused by a pure update, by updating pure with this hotfix it fixed the problem https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Ia_ISHX6GYaofP1w_toVaEhIT6I4L40d/view?usp=sharing

installed correctly and my pure config does not work and throws a lua error when checking the lua debug doesnt do it with any other filter.
