They look good, but there's a lot of compression still going on. Dunno if it's on your end or Imgur's, but I'd look into it if I were you.

It's because these are actually JPGs when shown here. Try saving any of them - you'll get a JPG file. I guess Imgur compresses them on the fly for anything that is not Reddit?

Welp, apparently the source png file was too big. Imgur has a 10mb cap on file size and if a still image hits that cap, it gets converted to jpg.

I downloaded the converted file down to the same folder as the 12mb source image and viewing both at 100% zoom, there is very little difference between them. Yes there's a difference but not a lot. I had to zoom in to 100% to start noticing details that mainly were around the light bloom areas.

To keep inline with the rules you'd be better off just converting to high quality jpeg locally then uploading.

Saw the earlier pics and had to run around these new maps for myself. Looks and runs fantastic.

That's some hot shit.

I just tested converting the source down to a 6mb jpg rendering it at max detail settings and there is zero difference at 200% zoom between the 6mb jpg and the one that imgur compressed from the PNG I uploaded.

According to Imgur's faq, they use a lossless compression and pixel peeping between the two images seems to backup that claim.

I'll dump future shots for this thread into my flickr album

Anyone happen to know if there's a timestop, free cam console command for Ryse? I can't seem to find a CE anywhere..sending an SOS to jim2point0 :D

No freecam commands or CE for RYSE. As of now the only thing is just the HUD removal command "gfx_draw 0". By using it you somewhat get a timestop since the command also seems to disable the menu elements, you just won't be able to change in to different angles when in timestop/menu so it's kind of useless.

That's too bad. Yeah I've been using the gfx_draw command and you're right it does pause the game and disable the menu but it just makes it very difficult to capture good action shots. I'm having to pan the camera around to get the angle I want with each split second pause..a bit stressful ! Cheers mate.
