That is pretty awesome! But if you're going to PNG, try FastStone
Here's a 7MB PNG. Let's play "Spot the Difference."
I guess somehow in the process I forgot to compress the PNG... oops
I'm gonna replace the posted image with that one, thanks.

Great shots Lime, I loved Adewale and that expansion. I wish he had been the main character of AC4. Maybe then the story would have been interesting.

Holy shit!
Thank you! And I totally agree with you - Adewale is a much more interesting main character and the historical contextualization of Freedom Cry and the motivation for killing baddies are much fresher and somewhat justified than Black Flag. The former should've been the latter, definitely - but then again, sometimes I think that if a game dealing with a sensitive and controversial subject matter like slavery and the transatlantic slave trade had to be stretched out for 15-30 hours instead of 5, then there would be much higher possibility of error in regards to doing injustice to the subject matter and the people affected by it. But at the same time, it would've been much more interesting to play and experience and it would signal experimentation by a huge publisher in their AAA franchise, possibly affecting other pubs and devs to push the envelope a bit more in their games, both design wise and narrative wise.

Do you have normal shot for comparison?Trying a new trick:
The way I've been getting shots of this game is to setup the frame at a playable res, switch to very high res with an SRWE preset (thanks Jim), and starting bandicam's multishot at 1 shot per second. 1 per second also being my framerate at that point, haha. Mostly that's to be sure I got the shot, as I see for certain the frame counter turn yellow.
What's interesting is its finally a good way to try something I've often wanted to. Many games have exposure ramping happening a lot. Whether its 'adaptation', or in this case, fading up brightness from the pause (pause > inventory specifically) screen, you have the material needed for an HDR exposure. Before it was impractical cause I couldn't get all the in betweens of the ramp, but the multishot snags it perfect.
So here I put together 6 images into one in photoshop, and boosted the clarity as is customary with HDR imagery. In video games, which are halfway to such visuals already, its especially nifty looking (I'm guessing, but I think this turned out nifty).
Wall textures look awful. They look like they've been though very heavy sharpening filter.

Trying to make panoramas once again, but it looks really off. Can someone please tell me how to make a proper panorama? I took 5 screenshots, rotated the camera horizontally whilst remaining stationary, and then stitched it together in Photoshop CC using File --> Automate --> Photomerge --> Spherical (same results as Automatic) and then cropped appropriately. What am I missing?

mmm, dinner?
That is true to the HDR effect! I think it looks cool as an experimental thing.
No need to quote your images in this thread bud. Let em loose! Only big portrait shots need to be quoted.
mmm, dinner?
How did you disable the mini map?

Open the console (~ key)
Type "UI.DrawEnable 0" to disable the HUD
Then "UI.DrawEnable 1" to enable it again
Type "UI.DrawEnable 0" to disable the HUD

Downsampled from 4k + I finally found an AO bit that doesn't bleed and looks great (the Aion profile) + HUD and FOV fixes. Shit's sublime.
That looks a lot better than I'd ever imagined Halo CE could look.

Screenshot all areas!
This is why I love PC gaming.
Lake Bresha was ruined on PS3 due to transparency dithering, even though it's one of the most stunning locations in any RPG ever. 16xCSAA at 4k resolution fixes that.
