[xenorevlis]

Downloading a bunch of demos and still have other games to try out, but here ya go:

Battlefield Heroes (doesn't like being in widescreen)

Audiosurf

Dark Messiah Might and Magic

Half Life 2: Episode 1

Far Cry

Far Cry 2

Gasp, a mod edited out my screen that had the ALTERED / FAKE CD key on it :lol

It read "YEH THIS ISNT REAL CODE"

 

[Ikuu]

Can people please remember to mention the name of the game when posting screens, it's usually pretty obvious but still would be nice.

 

[adg1034]

Say what you will about Dark Messiah of Might & Magic, it was a very pretty game.

Done! Although, I'm not sure if I should re-add the Far Cry 1 image with the fake CD key

Actually a lot of screens I thought I took with FRAPS didn't show up. Sucks, because it even works and shows up on the LCD of my keyboard

*praise for some Zeno Clash

I will post some the moment it release (I already pre-loaded it on Steam). Oh and btw, all the screens I posted are from a smooth running game. My slightly juiced GTX 285 is running things like Far Cry 2 at highest settings at 30-60 FPS 1920x1080

Yes, yes, we all like Zeno Clash. No need to make a big deal out of it.

 

[Tokubetsu]

Some Zeno Clash (resized from 1680x1050):

I have a couple more but tinypic is being weird.

 

[xenorevlis]

Here you go, some Zeno Clash at highest settings. After 15 minutes with "motion blur" enabled I turned it off. You lose the clarity of objects all around. Can't wait for REAL per-pixel blurring like in Killzone 2 to be the norm

With motion-blur:

Without motion-blur:

 

[Tokubetsu]

Yeah, motion blur was working for me at first and then all of a sudden it looked as if vaseline was covering my screen. :lol

 

[xenorevlis]

I'm also getting this weird pixel noise pattern along transparencies. Might have something to do with settings in that NVIDIA panel. Will check later, as I recall someone dealing with the same or a similar issue earlier in the thread.

Transparency aliasing? Enable transparency MSAA in your drivers and crank up the MSAA, works best with 4x or 8x MSAA.

Thank you sir. MSAA is at 16x already (all settings max in-game). I'm leaving to the hospital now, to help my mom home post-surgery.

Super or multi-sampling?

 

[Sibylus]

Wait, is that blur present constantly, even when you're not really swivelling the camera?

Hah, just the other day I was thinking I should pop over here and ask if anyone could do any Audiosurf shots. Very nice!

Lost Planet

 

[jon_irenicus]

Microsoft Flight Simulator X (R.I.P. ACES Game Studios) shots taken ~2 years ago on an ATI X1900XTX at 1600x1200. I've since upgraded to a GeForce GTX 280 but haven't installed FSX to take any new 1920x1200 shots. Still looks pretty nice though.

The Nvidia drivers don't have an option for 16xMSAA, its 16xCSAA you're likely using which uses 4xMSAA in conjunction with Nvidia's shader based antialising. So try using 8xMSAA (8xQ) and then transparency multisampling, as supersampling will kill performance. It should work with the ingame AA routines but if it doesn't force the MSAA level through your drivers as well.

Working on it myself haha. I've been waiting like 2 years for a decent pc. I'm glad I waited. Just sucks I had to do chapter 1/2 over again.

Silent Hill Homecoming

Hellooo boobie nurses!

Argh they bleed jaggedy low res blood!

 

[Durante]

Even more Sacred 2, tell me when you're starting to get tired of it :lol
I really love its visuals.

Somewhat crowded:

The amazing "evil sheep" quest:

 

[Stop It]

Some Dead Space pictures here, once I can get AA/AF forced onto the game I'll take some better shots:

 

[MNC]

D: Those are already practically jaggy free.

Er, they are? I personally thought the game looks quite awful especially in those shots thanks to a lack of filtering and AA, maybe I have become a bit too complacent!

Silent Hunter IV

<3 Silent Hunter series

American subs are pretty cool, but dont stand a chance against the german.

Downsized from 1650x1050

 

[brain_stew]

Some Dead Space pictures here, once I can get AA/AF forced onto the game I'll take some better shots:

You can't force AA in Dead Space, only use the built in edge AA. At high resolutions ts not too bad, really. Be sure to use D3DOVerrider to force Vsync/triple buffering as the game's built in vsync locks the game to 30 fps.

Well I suppose you could always try a bit super sampling anti aliasing, considering the engine is so well optimised.

Well, this is coming from someone who's best videocard is a 7600GT so to me they really are :lol Ofcourse I can discover jaggies in them, but imo they are really minor and basically gotten rid of.

 

[Broseybrose]

brainstew - simple question: will forcing supersampled transparencies in NVCP work properly if i leave the NVCP AA setting to app-controlled?

because that is how i play my source games (8xAA in-game), and sometimes i wonder if the supersampling is taking effect. Like maybe i need to use 8xQ in order for the supersampling to work? can you clear this up?

Yeah, I googled the issue and it turns out Dead Space uses and engine that hates AA, so that's out of the window. I already have triple buffering on it seems as I had VSync on and ATT reported 60fps but will get D3Doverrider anyway.

Anyway, now for shots of a game that'll make Bish very happy, it finally arrived in the post

 

[Stop It]

Here's some pics from a free Ferrari based game that I found thanks to this thread: here

And some shots of Race 07 using a F3000 car.

And finally:

Oops.

I feel like a troll for saying it, but I feel like this thread has gone downhill a bit. There are lots of huge screenshots of...really jaggy-looking games, even newer ones. Those Dead Space screenshots really look kinda ugly. I guess I got spoiled by the graphics whore-ness of the first few pages, and since then we've been posting older games? :lol

While there is a bit of PP missing from those Dead Space shows, we can't do much about the lack of AA as the game doesn't support it, which is a shame.

Anywho, while the first few pages were nice, it was becoming a Crysis fest, and theres much more to PC gaming than that. However, if you feel that the quality has gone downhill feel free to contribute!

Please, post some Burnout Paradise and Empires: Total War shots.

I don't have good shots. And when I do they look worse than they do ingame, probably partly due to compression, AA, or whatever.

Get some transparency AA on them, spoils the otherwise perfect IQ.

I was kind of contributing to the Crysis-fest because that's what I happened to be playing at the time.

I'm gonna go take some good Lost Planet shots now.

 

[Nikorasu]

I return bearing QUALITY screenshots! BEHOLD.. Lost Planet with all DX10 effects enabled, 4xAA, 16xAF and vsync!

 

[Zeliard]

I wish The Darkness had come out for PC. It would look marvelous.

 

[NameIess]

Decided to download the PC demo of Lost planet.
I managed to max out all the settings at 1920X1080 DX9 with a smooth framerate over 30FPS.
I have to agree the game looks very good at the higher res maxed out.

Since I never finished the game on 360 I may make a purchase and try DX10 mode with all settings maxed. I will even use the 360 controller since the control scheme was obviously designed for a controller layout.

This thread has motivated me to start PC gaming again since I recently updated my rig and monitor...

Considering this same engine further optimized was used for RE5 I can only imagine how a PC version of RE5 would look...

With all of the DX10 effects on it really is a stunning game. DX10 gives you far better fur effects on the human outfits and akrid, much better motion blur and improved colors and postprocessing (some scenes are noticeably duller on DX9/xbox 360 with no colored lens flare or corona effects). It is gorgeous, especially running at a solid 60fps. It really was the posterchild for DX10 (other than Crysis), and arguably still is.

And yes, I dream of RE5 PC regularly.

 

[Nikorasu]

Just sum Bioshock:

I hate the lack of AA in this game. Can't even force it through CCC.
