How did you toggle the hud? I couldn't get any hud toggle to work through cfg files and 3dmigoto crashed the game no matter what I tried.

(camera tools almost done btw, but will be Sunday at the soonest ;))

I didn't toggle anything, it vanishes by itself :D

This is the coolest thing I've seen so far in Space Engine.

This is RS 1228-2706-0-0-114 B1, in orbit around a white dwarf, which is part of a binary star system with a red hypergiant.

I've not seen a white dwarf before, and I've not seen a planet illuminated by two different stars that looked quite so striking either. It's beautiful. (No ReShade; SE 0.9.8.0)

Dude space engine! That is a really cool planet.

I haven't booted it in a while but this is the most interesting thing I've ever found.

The volumetric lighting in Alan Wake (and Quantum Break, which also benefits from global illumination) is utterly divine.

It really is. The game is showing its age, but the volumetric lighting is still amazin indeed!
 
Hi, I'm new to this, and some of these look insanely beautiful.

1) Is there a good reshade tutorial so that I can get some of these insane shots?
2) Are you guys cropping the UI out, or are you guys doing that through in game settings? I have played a lot of the games in here and do not understand how you're getting some of the crazy angles you're getting.

1) The best thing to do if you want to learn how to use ReShade is download someone else's preset for whichever game you want, and dig into the files to see how they set it up. Then mess around turning things on/off, and tweaking values to see what changes. There's no shortcut to learning how to use it, unfortunately - unless you just want to throw in someone else's preset and leave it at that (which is a valid way of using it).

2) If a game doesn't have its own dedicated photo mode, but you see people taking shots from interesting angles and with no hud, it generally means someone has made a freecam tool for it. That might be using Cheat Engine, or a specific tool just for that game. The best thing to do is look in the post headers on here if someone has put which tools they used and google it, or straight up ask someone what they used - most people are forthcoming and will give you a link if they're able. Sometimes a good old-fashioned "name of game + freecam" google search will give you what you need too.

Further to what amoebae mentioned, a couple good places to start are the old Screenshotters Compendium thread here on GAF and the forum on DET. Both haven't had much activity lately but there is a heap of good information in both locations.

Oh man, that brings back memories! How does the re-release hold up?

It's really faithful to the original (which you can always skip back to), it has remastered audio, it has commentary tracks, and it can even be played on a controller.

The camera tools for Prey 2017: https://github.com/FransBouma/InjectableGenericCameraSystem/tree/master/Cameras/Prey
(Freecam/timestop/fov/supersampling)

They're a bit like a shiny new car but no gasoline to put into it: no HUD toggle in sight, so it is a bit of a pain to get a great shot I think for now. They've confirmed on twitter they'll add a hud toggle, but when that is released is of course anyone's guess. 3d migoto bugs out with this game, so it's not usable to hunt for the shaders. The hunt is still on though, so perhaps it's found before the devs release their hud toggle ;). Sunbeam and I have dug up all references to objects in the game so it's highly likely one of them is the pesky hud renderer/menu system.

nice!!! But without No_Hud is not very useful. :/

You're doing the lords work, Otisinf
