I know, after more than a decade there are still controversies about who's owning the brand, I think this is the main reason why it doesn't hit digital stores. Luckily I own my good ol' copy of the game, I just love it.

I have recently replayed NOLF 1, didn't make any screenshots though (didn't work for some reason with the stuff i used), i wish i'd had bought NOLF2 when it was new... i might Amazon or e-bay it.

How did you get AA working in NOLF? Last time I played it I couldn't get anything to work.

You can 32 xs+ 8 x sparse grid super sample that game with Nvidia Inspector (use Lith Tech.exe instead of NOLF.exe)

Edit: Video is in german but you can see the settings NOLF 32xssaa

 

[sertopico]

Exactly, since it's an old engine you can push AA far and beyond with no framerate drops.

No One Lives Forever Series not being available on any digital distribution service is a tragedy.

Game holds up so well too

 

[Slamtastic]

and it's pretty funny that not even PC can save Injustice from being a hideous game

Unless you use SweetFX to remove the desaturation on the game.

No NOLF3 is an even bigger tragedy.

Don't mention that, it hurts...

I'm going to play the NOLF series again after seeing those screens.

I have a question regarding this game. What exactly does enabling "supersampling" in the options do? I've enabled it a few times with minor hits in fps, but didn't notice much of a difference.

This pigeon was frozen in mid-air, lol.

Basically, each frame is rendered in a resolution, that is bigger than your monitor's resolution and then scaled down to your resolution.

ex. Playing at 1080 p with 4 X Supersampling means the game is effectively rendering an image at 4K. (Most of the time 2X is more then plenty as 4 is total overkill )

It is a highly effective AA method but usually comes with a hefty performance cost depending on what card you are using .

4x SS would be more similar to 8K, no?

1080p is, like, 2K isn't it? I never remember these things.

"You look like you need a monkey"
"I don't want a monkey!"

"Yes sir, I mean no sir! I mean, yes to the first part and no to the second part. Sir!"

Only replayed the first last week for about the 20th time. Brilliant games.

Are you insulting my monkey?!?

 

[GavinUK86]

God dammit guys! I only finished NOLF for about the 100th time a few weeks back and now I'm going to have to replay it all over again. And NOLF2..... and Contract Jack. (I liked that one even though most hate it).

 

[littlegrasshopper]

 

[One3rd]

Don't mention that, it hurts...

I found and installed NOLF2 a couple of months ago but had problems getting 16:9 resolutions working. Your shots made me want to try again but I now can't find the CD to start it up!

If you don't like the heavy film grain, it can be removed with TexMod. Further screenshooting tools here.

Decided to do a comparison. I don't know how people mistakenly think it is 1080p on ps3. Ico was perfect though.

pcsx2 vs hd collection

ps3 'HD' collection

pcsx2 3x native

 

[Cannon Goose]

Damn, now I need to replay Metro Last Light AND No One Lives Forever!

Great shots, everybody.

Is it? now you make me doubt myself altough i still question it rendering at 8k.

 

[Stulaw]

Yeah, it's more like 4K/UHD, 8K is like 16 times the resolution of 2K, just type the resolutions into a calculator to get the amount of Pixels.

1920 x 1080 (1080p) = 2,073,600
3840 x 2160 (UHD/2160p) = 8,294,400
4096 x 2160 (4K) = 8,847,360
7680 x 4320 (4320p(what T.V manufacturers will probably call 8K)) = 33,177,600

4xSS on 1080p I believe is 4K.

I think 2xSS is 2880x1620.

I have recently replayed NOLF 1, didn't make any screenshots though (didn't work for some reason with the stuff i used), i wish i'd had bought NOLF2 when it was new... i might Amazon or e-bay it.

I don't understand how he's so short

 

[Auto-Reply]

He ain't short, it's just everything else is so big!

 

[dr_rus]

4xSS on 1080p I believe is 4K.

I think 2xSS is 2880x1620.

4x AA is (most often) 2x2 AA which means that you increase X and Y by 2.
Thus 1920x1080 with 4x AA is 3840x2160 worth of pixels or what is called "4K" in TV space.
8K would be a 3840x2160 display resolution with 4x AA again. So to get from 1080p to 8K via AA you actually need 16x AA applied on top of 1080p resolution.

Glad to see there are so many NOLF fans!
Anyway, there was someone asking about widescreen resolutions, there is a fix around the net which works great. As I have written some time ago I can't go past 1920X1200 though. Going beyond resets the resolution to 640X480.

More screenies:

Arma 3 would look even better with percentage closer soft shadows.
