@NickPal: your last TW2 shots look really better without the excessive bloom!

Thanks! Nattydread's right, the in-game bloom is too strong so I'm using the one in reshade. I made a preset for this last night but added your vibrance settings to desaturate it a little and I think it looks good. Almost looks like like Witcher 3 in some places. Mind you I used the Witcher 2 .ini tweaker over at Nexus mods to go above ultra settings for draw distance, foliage and shadows etc. to get it looking like this and added some HBAO through Reshade. The end result is that it wasn't playable in 5k so I may have to drop the resolution to 1440p but it makes for some nice screens. And I wish I could get Jim's CT to work with the 32bit GOG version.:(

Thanks Nick. You can find the preset on the Nexus now. I'm still working on tweaks, but I really wanted to share it with people.


Good to know when I buy the game, cheers. That's a nice looking preset you did there.

I don't normally link to other fickr members but seeing as how Battlefront is looking the bees knees I thought you guys should check out this one shot.

Excellent captures!

Imagephiles, can anyone else see a difference between these two images or is it just my monitor?



Abload.de (left), Imgur (right). Imgur appears desaturated and to be crushing the black levels with a custom curve.

If this isn't just my monitor or a color profile issue I'll have to stop using Imgur completely from now on for anything. I'll probably have to do some further tests.

Here's the difference image between the two. The closer to black a pizel is, the closer to identical they are.

Its PNG so should be lossless.
 
Why is this glorious graphics wasted on an empty multiplayer shooty bang bang ?

I want singleplayer Jedi Knight starring Kyle Katarn with this graphics :(

I can only think one is coming and they didn't want to trivialize the franchise with a tacked on campaign. I'd think a single player game would have to be handled very carefully and may cost a lot of money.

So, I was going to show some of my ReShade shots, but I haven't used Flickr before and the linking of the pics wont work correctly. Im going to try another website instead
1. Long method is to click download > view all sizes > click original > when image loads right-click "copy image URL" > paste that in image quotes here.

2. Quick method is to use alo81's "OG Flickr" extension for Chrome.

edit: Oh! You got it working.

Anyone else have the problem of images not loading completely?
Maybe when Firefox is getting towards 1GB of memory usage. I still have 32-bit Firefox since as far as I know, 64-bit support remains unofficial/experimental. I don't know if there's a coincidence or not.

In its final stages, entire windows and tabs of Firefox start going black, and restarting it fixes everything of course.

Great looking shots, jim2point0. It's been a while since you've posted, so it's good to see you back.

The textures really show it's age, but yeah it can still look good.

I really like the look of this mansion.



Legacy of Kain: Defiance at 1080p SSAAx4, forgot to put it on the title.

Did they ever make a widescreen patch for Soul Reaver 2?

Well I wouldn't say I'm "back." I had a baby 2 months ago so any time I get for gaming, I like to spend it actually gaming. No time for screenshots :)

Does it still have the always on blur filter which they seem to like so much since AC3 that they force it on us in every even series entry? Screenshots are way too soft for my taste. I'm guessing that those which are more or less ok are downsampled to combat the blurring.

So to answer my question - yes, they still think that it's a good idea to force FXAA down our throats when we want to use MSAA. Which kinda explains why most ACS screenshots I've seen looks like a blur fest. And TXAA is even worse in this one.

Well, congratulations are in order then! That sounds a bit more important than screenshotting fore sure :p

Here's the difference image between the two. The closer to black a pizel is, the closer to identical they are.

It's more likely how the browsers are rendering the color profiles (or lack of, if one host is removing it) of the images on monitors that can view the extended color gamut, rather than a difference visible in Photoshop via changing the blend mode.

Unless someone else with an wide gamut IPS monitor can't reproduce it I think that's my conclusion.

Probably browser cm related, EIZO CG222W here, pictures look the same using firefox (I think I forced color management years ago though and the latest versions should have that from the start) I thought that specific problem was Adobe RGB related tbh.
