So, n00bish question incoming, since the rest of you seem to have this figured.
I'm rendering Sine Mora at 4096x1755 but it displays on my monitor as 1920x822 since it's a 1080p monitor (the game has a weird aspect ratio 21:9 that is fixed).
When I try to grab a screenshot I get 1080p images, but seeing some of the insane resolutions in this thread I understand there should be a way to grab the original image before it's dowscaled to fit on my monitor.
Does this require a special tool?

WOWOWOW That shot might have sold me Last Remnant. I've been on the fence for years.
Also, I was about to post "where the fuck is Dennis?" then I noticed he was banned
It's only a matter of time before he shows up and kills all our shots.

He barely even posts screenshots any more. He's washed up, outdone by all the young guys

That guy is overrated, imo. He had his time when no one knew how to downsample.

I believe the way you render Sine Mora ( by adding launch options command lines in steam right ? ) doesn't work the same way as creating a custom resolution for the downsampling. In the former case the game will downscale to fit your screen "before" you can get a chance to grab the native shots whereas in the latter scenario image capturing software like fraps will grab the native screen running at the higher resolution.
edit : Nice NS2 shot
, don't worry that part is unobtrusive didn't really notice it until you mentioned it.efyu_lemonardo

ah, ok. So once I have a custom resolution set up via nVidia control panel screen-captures will be tricked into thinking that's the actual resolution, and act accordingly?
Would PrintScreen also behave this way?

Oh shit lol. I'm sure Dennis is reading this thread. His return will be vengeful.
THE END IS NIGH

Pretty much!
I don't actually know to be honest, print screen is so finicky for me. Sometimes I just get a black screen sometimes a jumbled mess...but that's at least how fraps behaves - i.e it takes a picture of a resolution that your game is set to.

Well, most new games should support 8K (7680×4320) anyway, Skyrim does. But computer display standard currently is at most WHUXGA (7680×4800), so we probably have to wait a few years for 10K to enter the formula.

I just sorted out the AA with the game, after this shot
Also, I messed with draw distance and holy shit. I think I actually prefer the foggier distance.

That is probably the best Morrowind shot I have ever seen.
What graphical mods are used here?

Thanks. There's a wonderful all-in-one mod Morrowind Graphics Overhaul, which includes many things, and uses its own detailed installer. Textures, new models, shaders, all that good stuff.
From the roaming around I've done, I find it much more immersive than Skyrim. Its a bummer the combat is so utterly horrendous.

The ingame AA options are turrrrble
This is how I'm imagining Cyberpunk 2077's open world will look. God please, I hope CD Projekt delivers.
Next-next-next gen.
Yes, they are basically what this thread is all about.
I read the OP and I saw nothing that prevents them. And it's called the "bullshot" thread
Edit: see above.
hey guys could you help me out with something? Does the Crysis and AvP shot I posted look really dark with way to much contrast to you? I changed my video card drivers this morning and I'm having some weird problems with viewing pictures.
When I look at it in photoshop it looks okay to me but looking at in now in Chrome and in windows photo viewer it looks super dark with a lot of increased contrast. The odd thing is when I look at it in full screen in the windows photo viewer it looks normal and looks the same as it does in photoshop. Looking at in the thread now it looks horrible tho : (
Edit: It also looks normal in paint, and Irfranview. Maybe I messed up the color profiles or something?

Shot in the dark, could be this :
Fix your monitor's color profile.
Right click the Desktop and click Screen Resolution, then Advanced settings. Click the Color Management tab.
You want it to look like this, no profiles attached to it.
They both look fine to me.
Okay thanks. It's very odd I just looked at the thread in Explorer and it looks normal but in chrome they're messed up.
Edit: Thanks Corky it was a color profile problem. Everything looks normal now!
