Keep in mind that I'm not sure if it's pain that sharpens or irfan that blurs.

Possibly both! I'm not sure.

 

[Wanny]

I'm using FastStone image viewer w/ Lanczos 2 here. It's a middle between Paint and Irfanview.

 

[Corky]

After a quick test it seems paint sharpens a wee bit. You'd be better off using Irfanview, which is free, but best off using Photoshop, which isn't. That bicubic resize is some magic. If you're interested I have comparison results.

I'd enjoy some comparisons.

Isn't CS2 free now?

 

[azumihack]

irfanview downsample is blur. I use it with "Apply sharpen after resample".

[scitek]

Irfanview blurs? That's what I use

 

[Corky]

Is that regular bicubic? Or smoother or sharper`?

 

[Durante]

I still have the raw 1620p SMAA high images if you want them.

Looks like a painting. Amazing.

I also really like the insane Dark Souls shot on the previous page.

Something much more pedestrian: (Fallout New Vegas, Honest Hearts DLC)

Original's actually there now . It's bicubic smoother, which I didn't mean to use. So here's sharper, which I prefer:

This thread always makes me feel an unhealthily strong urge to upgrade my PC even though I have absolutely no real need to do so. It also reminds me how much I don't need to worry about my plans not to buy the new consoles.

Do it Chris, imagine playing lords management 2 in 4k!

You should check your PMs, I sent you a message/question sort of relating to it.

By the way, I hope the message doesn't come off as rude because if so it wasn't intended.

 

[iNvid02]

consoles are heading to 1080p now, 1600x900 will no longer suffice for ma shots.

I heard the ps4 does 8k

 

[IcyBlueStrawberry]

I heard the ps4 does 8k

That was before they doubled the RAM.

It does 16K now.

hmmmmmmm. Mine was blurring after that. but the sharpen seems to clean it up.

 

[Wanny]

Oh shit I discovered that r_HDRBloomRatio=0 turns the game into even more MAXIMUM SHARPNESS
edit: Actually 0 might be a bit too low but the default 0.15 does blur everything else a bit. Check it out. I'm using a value of 0.075 now.

Very refreshing Spawn, excellent shots.

Is it just me or the does the plane in that 4th shot look like it's just sitting on a table that happens to look like a landscape?

I was more concerned about who the hell forgot to remove the watermark on the picture, until I noticed it was part of the paint scheme.

Hahaha, I thought the exact same thing at first glance.

We need a new game release, it gets boring when every single page is filled with Crysis 3.

 

[Sethos]

Wait, one second you didn't have the game MrRoderick and the second the game hits the pirate scene there you are?

 

[KyleN]

Nice shots MrRoderick. Need to see some shots from level 2 with that IQ.

 

[Xyber]

To mix things up a little.
They just need to add the option for longer draw distance on shadows and then I'm happy with the port. Looks good and clean right now.
