My shots are vanilla, I think next time i play it I'll try Sikkmod too.
I think 24bit TGA shots are uncomressed, but I could be wrong.
Haha ok :) Did you start playing Prey with Sikkmod? Nice crisp shot!

Nice!

Wow thanks man! All this makes screenshoting Prey easyier :p

Yes that first shot is with Sikkmod installed but I didn't realize it needed to be enabled in the menu settings. None of the features are turned on in that shot...which actually works for it I think! I realized it wasn't working and imported the default config file that comes with sikkmod but that enables almost everything and it took me awhile to whittle it down to what I actually wanted to use. I suggest enabling the features one at a time to see if the results are what you want; HDR and coloration are pretty nice, DoF and the special light bloom effects I used on a per shot basis.

Are pictures of Dark Souls II boss fights considered spoilers for the game? Just curious.
If you don't have context, would it really spoil much?

Anyway, these DS2 shots are 4k, which I now use as my playing res since borderless windowed downsampling support started working :p

I know at least for me personally, boss designs are one of the most exciting things to discover about the game.

The surprise of a new boss is always exciting.

At the same time, I recognize that's kind of crazy to try and avoid all bosses in a game where bosses are such a big role.

I'd probably prefer links to screenshots during this first month, but I'm obviously not enforcing any specific rule.

I love these, but can not for the life of me to get it to look anywhere near this (granted my hardware plays a big roll in this).
Is the game still playable?

On a side note; Skyrim screens like this make me so bummed out that Bethesda went for the whole snowy pallet, and not the same style as morrorwind/oblivion

Yeah it's playable.
About 30-40fps I think.
Having a Titan with 6GB of VRAM helps a lot because with ENB and ugridstoload tweaked to go higher and hd textures for everything I've seen my VRAM hit 5gb+

Yea, that would definitely help =).
Anyway the screens look gorgeous.

It's only worse if you're active on FlickR. People post Skyrim every day.. and always the same stuff too.

Welcome to Gaf :)


After Soontrolls's eviction from here by Evilore himself and Midrhas stopped posting here ,the amount of regulars on this thread was starting to get a bit thin .

I thought the game could only use 4GB VRAM because it's 32-bit?

Almost missed this , are you using Durante's tool To get to 8k ?

Probably just SRWE. You play in windowed mode, line up your shot, then resize the window to the resolution you want to capture with SRWE. Take screenshot. Resize back down.

I think Durante's tool is only DX9, right?

Yep! But i used some autoexec commands that i binded to some keys. I think SRWE didn't actually force the game to render at a higher resolution.
Altough.. not sure if i actually tried it in Crysis 3.
