Sethos is banned? What did he do?

I was wondering about this too. I saw him arguing with some guy in the pick-up thread but he was definitely in the right, so I don't think that was it. I hope he comes back soon.

Damn, those downsampled screenshots look awesome. I tried following a guide but I get stuck at the first passage, when using my plasma I don't get the option to set GPU as the scaling method in the nvidia control panel. Any hint?

Skyrim Jasmin looks like ass in my opinion. Too much contrast, too much filters, too much saturation, but I guess that's down to personal taste.

EVE Online - first time I've played in 5 years. I think it holds up well considering.

You're using an ENB profile for this right?

Dont think he does. The magic thing for making Assassin creeds series to look great is to turn down the brightness 1 or 2 steps. The colors and everything looks 10x bether after that.

yeah off the bat the games usually look watered out even with brightness at 5, turning it down to 3 or 4 is better

I just built a new PC (and it's pretty awesome!), so I'm stoked to start posting in this thread. Quick question, though: Why not use imgur? I have a pro account there that allowed for ultra-large images that don't ever* get deleted, and aren't compressed (up to 5mb). Is it cool if I use imgur as long as the screenshots aren't over 5mb?

pro is ok, just the regular accounts that get their shit compressed

I think I'm gonna have an Assassins Creed series weekend, almost finished the second one though. Does anyone have a source for any settings for the series, I'm using SweetFX but it's doing something crazy to the shadows. They look shit to begin with anyway but now they are going haywire.

 

[Prozel]

i have no idea, if i had to guess maybe port begging GTAV PC in one of the news threads

as for 3000x resolutions, a beasty rig could handle it and deliver 30fps or more in some games, but for the most part its screenshot candy

Nah. It was the pick-up thread. Just asked him.

 

[iNvid02]

checked it out, pretty funny. electro seemed to have a bug up his ass

I need to get this. I can literally see my house from up there....
Though there aren't as many trees there as show up here.

Try an ENB profile, for AC it's just colour correction, but it's really good if you like it.

I'm interested too in this ENB profile you guys are talking about. Any guide online to set this up?

Which one would you recommend?

Will it work for AC III as well?

Yeeaaahh. If you just want to go ahead and give us your full mod list that would be greeaatt.

Holy crap, people! They're not even close to "incredibly distorted" or "incredible blurry"! Where were you guys when someone posted motion blurred Crysis 2 shots earlier?!

Either way, not having this discussion again. You can skip them or block them or whatever, and you don't even have to tell me about it!

A)Motion Blur =/= poor textures & low polygon count
B)No reason to get butthurt, dude. Unless you made the game or something, then shame on you.

You are the man, man.

 

[Gbraga]

Wow, and how does the game run after installing so many graphical mods? And what's your rig?

Wow, and how does the game run after installing so many graphical mods? And what's your rig?

Curious about this as well. I'm going to wipe all my Steam Mods, install all the bolded mods at least from the NMM, and make a new character when Dragonborn comes out.

Needless to say, the mods certainly take their toll on my fps. My rig is an unlocked (meaning 4 cores) X3 720 BE @ 3.3ghz and an unlocked AMD 6950 @ 900mhz, so they aren't not the most impressive specs.

And I get ~30 fps in-doors, while outdoors with a lot of trees and grass will move between 20-30 fps.

Oh

I have a GTX 680 + i5 3570k, do you know which mods I could install and still keep a good framerate all the time? Doesn't have to be 60 all the way, but at least never drop below 30.

Trying to get AA and SSAO to work with Assassins creed 1, but no luck.

Im becoming a bit frustrated over here. :/

GPU: Asus Geforce 670
Geforce drivers: 306.97
Nvidia Inspector Version: 1.9.6.6

Tried Nvidia Control panel by doing the following.

1) Click Manage 3d setting
2) Click program settings
3) Click on button add
4) Add assassins creed dx10.exe
5) Set the following
* Ambient occlusion to Quality
*AF 16x
AA FXAA OFF
AA Gamma correction ON
AA-mode Override any application settings
AA-Setting 8x CSAA
AA-Transparancy 4x Supersample
Texture filtering- Negative LOD bias Allow

After that the Apply button in the left corner by the cancel button. This is a no go when i start Assassin creed dx10.exe file

Nvidia inspector

Nvidia Inspector Version: 1.9.6.6
Geforce drivers: 306.97

1) Click the button Create profile Assassin creed dx10
2) Add application to current profile. Click to the Assassins creed dx10.exe file

Under compability

3) AO compability set to Fable lost chapters
4) AA-compatibility 0x000012C1

Under Antialiasing

5) No AA- behavior flags
6) AA-mode override any application setting
7) AA-setting 4xMultisampling
8) AA Transparency Multisampling on
9) AA Transparency Supersamplin 4x
10) FXAA off

Under Texture Filtering

11) AF filtering mode User defiened
12) AF setting 16x
13) Texture filtering LOD bais -1.375
14) Texture filtering Negative LOD bais Allow

Under Common

15) Ambient Occlusion setting High Quality
16) Ambient Occlusion setting On
17) Triple buffering and V-sync On

After that I press the Apply changes button on the top left of inspector window.

And also here no difference in the game.

Do anyone know what I am doing wrong, because its not the first time I cant get AA to work in games that other can.

And also thanks in advance for any answer, its much appreciated.

First of all, everyone gets on me about 'blur' and nobody mentioned anything about the game's actual assets until this post, so of course I'm going to assume that's what people are talking about. And that is what everyone else was talking about, except you, so why speak for them?

Secondly, I'm sick and tired of it already and I really don't want to hear it. This is, what, the fifteenth time already? Enough is enough!

So is Pso 2 in English now or are these from the Japanese version?

JP version with unofficial English patch. I don't play for the story, so the Japanese doesn't really bother me (plus I know enough conversational JP to get by, which makes things easier).

NA version is slated for release 'early 2013', which is to say, any time from January -> June. Personally, I'm not patient enough to wait and I most certainly don't feel like suffering from a massive content gap like I did for PSU.

:lol

With a i5 3570k and a GTX 680 you should be fine from my point of view. The 720 BE is nothing compared to the 3570k, and a 680 is a massive improvement above the 6950.

Really? So I can just install everything and play it? Thanks a lot! I've played it on the 360 and really loved this game, so not only playing at better resolution and performance is already enough reason (plus DLCs) to double dip but also being able to experience it looking that good... :O

Love this game's art style. Just kinda wish I could disable or reduce the film grain effect...
