Absolutely love your shots, but I can't help but notice the banding in a lot of them. I had the same issue yesterday. What method of resizing are you using?

Yeah I see it too. I'm using Lanczos2. What should I use?

 

[Thorgal]

Use lanczos 3 or bicubic .

Lanczos 2 is notorious for creating banding.

Yep I was using it too lol. Apparently its known for creating banding. Bicubic and Lanczos3 were better solutions (and I noticed Bicubic reduced it almost completely). Its more about preference though.

Cheers guys. I guess I will re-upload all of them after using bicubic... sigh.

no need .

Just keep it in mind for next time .

Sorry, World of Tanks apparently only supports FXAA =(. Also I can't downsample stuff. Captured using PlayClaw, let me know if it looks bad.

 

[BONKERS]

With these sorts of screenshots, there's going to be aliasing regardless of your resolution, due to the resolution of the Textures themselves.

Also the lighting model. The specular component is the core issue. (Also along with the resolution of say the specular/normal map)

People have been trying to figure out solutions for WoT for a while now. Not much help, one person will have one issue. Another won't have it. But a separate issue.

AA with this game is an unfortunate situation along with another small number of games where good AA just isn't possible yet.

Also guys, You can get Photoshop CS2 for free basically
http://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/how-to-get-photoshop-for-free/

Just use that, downsample using Bicubic. And all is well with the world. Bicubic is the closet you will get to what kind of IQ you actually get when downsampling in real time. As least it seems so to my eyes.

This DLC starts pretty strong with the scenery. Still has that overwhelming red though.

I think tonight I'll try to get Warframe to work again... but I'm not very hopeful.

Sadly i'm running AMD so no luck here

I'll not argue with more Warframe.

 

[jim2point0]

The problem I have with it is that if I set the resolution to 3840x2160, it works fine. But If I choose a resolution higher than that, the game is just a black screen. Even if I run it in windowed mode and use SRWE to change the resolution. That's unfortunate. I was hoping to try it with 5120x2880 =(

 

[Krappadizzle]

These two shots made me just buy this game for PC. Such a fun two games.

 

[UnrealEck]

I started playing this game a few days ago and upon noticing I could make a wee dog as a character, I had to make Doge.

Try disabling settings and running with dx11 disabled?

 

[Lime]

Great Space Engine shots, soontroll. I'd love to see more.

Hair Blowing in the wind sort of....

 

[Krappadizzle]

Is that SkyWind? I thought that got cancelled by the Mod creators.

Nope still up and running....skyblivion whatever its called got it's download links taken down temporarily.

 

[One3rd]

Those Riddick shots are awesome One3rd.

Thanks, I really enjoyed settings some of those up.

Full size PNGs are just a PM away!

I love what you did here.

Totally agree. Glad I was able to sway someone to check out this great game!

Love these two.

Thanks. I didn't think I'd ever say this but I'm running out of shots. Things are starting to look too similar to me but I guess that's the disadvantage of procedural generation. I might put SE aside for a bit and come back later.

There is like limitless terrain in that thing. I've seen a ton of environments you've not visited yet. I don't really know the complexities on how you get around in that... engine... but I do know there's a lot more you could probably explore.

The reason I've never looked into that is because the vastness of it just seems so intimidating O_O

I'll give that a shot.

Wanted to down sample this oldie but it's maxed at 1080 with 16xAA lol.

Loved fly the Anansi in multiplayer mode,nobody stood a chance all those years ago...

Sure has aged!

 

[VisceralBowl]

^ Is that Quake Wars?!

Does anybody still play that game?

 

[legacyzero]

Why can't I get my Space Engine to do that??

I never gave that game a fair chance..

Downsample.....look good....what?

Yep, not sure if the servers are still up tbh but for me it's the best game I ever played.

 

[legacyzero]

Firstly, my planets that I find never look like that. Always flat and no features..

I'm probably doing it wrong.

Start by turning the LOD to 2. From there you have to wait a minute or two* for it to generate the surface. Really depends on the speed of your PC.

*Times may vary

greatly

Yeah especially when you end up stuck with low res textures like in those screenshots for some reason. Might want to check your settings.

Here is a random screenshot where they don't look like ass.

Odd, I have everything set to max??

Then there is something wrong with the game, but its clearly not loading the higher detailed assets.

There is an update but it's failed to download twice. What is your AA set to?

That's just a random google image search. I don't have the game on hand right now to check anything, sorry.

 

[Dio Brando]

such a missed opportunity, this game. Don't really think the open world added anything to it. Feels like a worse version of Phoenix Wright

 

[Pjsprojects]

Dementiom 2 HD (remake of a DS game) 2560x1440 down sampled to 1080.

Don't think this is going to be worth any further shots but we will see.

[jim2point0]

I just noticed this rule. Hah.

Stretching: Do not post stretched screenshots. Do not take 2.35 screens unless you know what you are doing.

Were there some bad anamorphic screens posted that prompted that or something?

 

[MrRoderick]

I thought had sorted things out with this game, but it turns out the only car I can really start a race with in DX9 is the RUF. wtf. I was able to load the ol' Merc as well, so I'm thinking that it is some issue with the higher poly models, which most of the rest of the cars are. I don't think the shots are particularly nice, but the IQ is quite purty

 

[Stallion Free]

Yes, and 4:3 screens stretched to 16:9 aren't uncommon still.
