Hey Jim, are you still going to make a tutorial on how to go about making freecam/timestop/playersonly etc. with CE, or is that no longer in your plans?
Not trying to push you as I imagine it being time consuming as hell and there might not be one way of doing things but several, but I just remembered this topic from a year ago and wanted to know if you changed your mind about it or if we still can expect anything coming from that corner?

Well I can tell you now that it can't be done in the Batman games. One step in the process is disabling the game code that updates the camera.... but that always results in a crash in a lot of UE3 games. You can modify other stuff in those games... like camera distance and left-right offset. But I'm not a huge fan of that.

The problem with doing those tutorials is that I would have to assume that people are coming into Cheat Engine with no knowledge. So I'd have to create tutorials for....

1. Scanning for the various addresses you need and narrowing them down to the right one.
2. Creating scripts to retrieve those addresses so you don't have to scan for them the next time.
3. Finding camera coordinates \ FOV in 3rd person games.

That's not even account for the game-to-game quirks you have to overcome to get things to work.

Some day, maybe. In the meantime, you can always do the tutorials that ship with Cheat Engine to get familiar with it.

You guys shouldn't post your screens as links to your images...
Right click your image and select copy image location and paste that into "Insert Image" when posting here

I agree!

Way too many images

I feel like I'm throwing this rule at people more often lately.

Limits: 2 screenshots per post. If you have more than 2, make more posts or use thumbnails.

Also, if you're going to post PNGs, downsample them. Posting them here in 4K is just murder.

I finally started playing Dark Souls 2 and had low expectations because of people always saying it doesn't compare to the first. Well fuck that, I'm loving it maybe even more than I did the first and damn it looks great with ENB and and downsampling.

 

[jim2point0]

Finished it. Wished I didn't. I want more!

 

[Jazzkokehead]

LOVE IT.

looks great

Very cool!

Thanks!

Is that grain effect part of the ReShade? If so, can you do it with ZDOOM?

Are there other filters you can throw on top like scanlines or a curved screen?

That is definitely ReShade's grain.
For those other filters, there is LeiFX which simulates the use of old 3DFX render engines. You can check this page to see how it looks: LeiFX
Then there is Chromatic Aberration shader which is able to "bend" your displayed image to make it appear curved. Kinda like the fisheye lens effect...
ReShade works in most games that use OpenGL or DirectX 8-11.

No problem, I can see how difficult this can be. There are already a few good tuts out there on basics, how to get to some addresses/dynamic pointer scanning etc.
Would be cool to read your process on how you go about it as there are few people around that have much experience in these specific areas. Maybe some day

Cryengine is so wondeful, Ryse really does look like CG and you don't even have to downsample from 20K! I really hope temporal aliasing takes off in a big way, the very slight blur is more than worth it.

It`s reshade+mastereffects reborn. Getting different results in different games, this one has grain, dof(awesome), bloom, filmic filte etc. Didn`t see any scanline filter on the list though.
This was doomsday engine, ZDOOM work too i guess. I hope ReShade gets more improved because it`s fantastic in old games.

Some UT2004 demo screens. Dof works only in spectate mode :/

And another one, JJ Abrams edition.

I think i should play this game on pc, looks awesome

You can almost feel fresh air Images are big panoramas so i quoted them.

No need to quote them. They are automatically fit horizontally to the post width.

It's actually less convenient to have them quoted because then clicking them forces it full size.

Okay, because in another thread people are starting to talk about running ZDoom with a scanline filter.

This looks incredible. What ENB/other mods are you using? I was waiting for Scholar of the First Sin but the latest trailers look fugly and I figure I can make the game look better by modding it, so would be interested in your setup.

CLEARLY NOT ENOUGH.

That's the 2nd skyrim spammed post in this thread.

THE RULE IS 2 SCREENSHOTS PER POST. GRRR ALL CAPS MAD.

Also, if people could stop posting links to pages and just post the images instead, that'd be great.

Getting back into Skyrim purely because I want to finally play through the Dragonborn DLC, but I keep getting distracted. Distraction #401239 is the fantastic Skyrim Winter Overhaul mod. Really changes the mood of the game.

I've also stopped using an ENB because it was a drain on performance and the results were never satisfying enough. Skyrim is the kind of game that will simply never look particularly good, and all an ENB can do is make it look occasionally decent. Problem is that the differences in graphical quality become so distracting that I end up getting annoyed, so I'd rather just have consistently bad graphics instead of occasionally good graphics with jarring throwbacks to what the vanilla game looks like. Also, no ENB = much more performance leeway for better image quality on my aging GTX 670.

Well..... that's definitely not true.

"Skyrim with mods" is always brought up when people talk about the best looking games available. And those mods always include ENB. It can look pretty damn incredible.

I really have to disagree, and I'm surprised that you think otherwise, Jim. Low poly assets, poor lighting (most lights aren't light sources at all), terribad vegetation, awful animations, and none of that promised water that flows in the right directions or tree branches that swing realistically. Not even simply cloth physics, when Star Wars: Battlefront had them all the way back in 2004. Sure, the game can look good in screenshots that are carefully cropped and measured, but in motion, during regular gameplay, Skyrim has always been an ugly game IMO, even in most of Hodilton's landscape videos.

Wow, legacyzero... Those are some absolutely fantastic Elite shots! I've been craving for a new epic Elite screenshot to serve as my laptop wallpaper and now I finally have some candidates for it. Please do more!
