...

But he said that he didn't have a Twitter account, so you told him he can just grab them from Xbox.com. But...your description of how to do that necessitates a Twitter account.

Sorry about that hehe.


SO

Man, brazilian portuguese translations feel so forced. "Cuzão" :lol

Seems like after taking the shot I have to exit Upload, then start it up again before they can be shared. It's either that or there's a delay before the share options will pop up.

Yup, it's really unintuitive and kind of clunky.

Share option won't show up until they're uploaded. Every screenshot you take gets uploaded automatically like game clips, but sometimes it seems to take a little bit.

because its uploading. you can't share until its fully uploaded.

It seems like a temporary solution so that we can share stuff and because of that it's less than optimal. I expect it to get better each update they release leading up to the public release in March.

I think having lossless screenshots will help Xbone in the long run in regards to public perception. We're already seeing it here, people are starting to realize that 900p is not the end of the world and that Xbone is not some super weak ass machine. It's weaker than PS4, yes, but it's still a massive improvement over last-gen and has great looking titles already.

I don't think anyone here thinks of the X1 as a super weak system. It is clearly a very proficient game machine.

Alternate version of the Miranda one.

You'd be surprised. "Weaker" machine often translates to "weak" machine, as the message gets passed down grapevine.

I'll join in on the forza fun.

saw the buildings in the background of this pic, so I took the 2nd pic from up there.

Holy shit, now I desperately need to buy Horizon 2.

I've noticed a few people saying that the screenshot here don't look as good as they do on their Xbox... There could be a few reasons for that.

1. I assume most are viewing the screenshots on a different screen than the one they game on. For example, on my Note 4, the screenshots do really pop. They are very high res on a relatively small screen.

2. TV calibration. The Xbox One has a decent colour calibration tool. Use it and follow it as close as you can. At first, especially if you are making a lot of tweaks, it may first appear 'rubbish' (different...) but stick with it. Your eyes will adjust and you will have the best picture your screen can display.

3. TV/Monitor screen. Kind of linked to 1 and 2,the Xbox One can only look as good as the screen that the image is appearing on.

That's a direct translation of the game's original english script. Is that a word that isn't really used in Brazilian Portuguese?

Dragon Age multiplayer as an Elementalist means not seeing your enemies very often, or for long.

It's because the screenshots are rendering out at video blacklevels 16-235, so things that are black are grey and things that are white aren't as bright as they should be when viewed on a PC.

I can see this on the historgram when I've imported it into Adobe Lightroom

Most Xbox One owners will have the console set to limited RGB (and they should!)

I'll take some shots with full range to see if it matters.

I've saved a few other pictures from this thread and they are at 0-255.

I'm not sure if that is the game or the user's console

Yeah it shows up as they should in the histograms

So basically, if you are taking screenshots to share on the internets, you want to set your console to full before you do it.

Orcas in GTAV

I'm liking this feature.

 

[The English Conquistador]

Ugh the screenshot function isn't working for me. I double tap the Xbox button and just receive the normal "record that" etc functionality.

Anyone else having an issue?

Are you in the preview program? Have you done the update?

 

[The English Conquistador]

I got the update but I am not in the preview program.

 

[EvB]

That's not the update then.
You only get the update that contains beta functionality if you are in the program, you can either get someone to invite you and have beta updates (glitchy) or hang on a few weeks and get the public release.

 

[Orca]

I keep jumping into games I haven't played for a bit just to take a shot and see how it turns out.

 

[Doug Heffernan]

Wow.
Can I get a preview invite?
Gamertag is same as my username.

Wow, well that sucks. :/

Would anyone be kind enough to give me an invite to the preview? Since the screenshotting is so hot right now, waiting for the public release would be a bummer.

My Unity-Screenshots from the screenshot-thread.

How are you getting those views without Arno in the way?

 

[leobebes]

Just dress Arno like a dandy and have him pose with a shank up someone's chin.

I couldn't figure it out either.

Just experimenting now. Seems if you cover against a wall/object then turn the camera around you can sometimes remove Arno from the frame.

So basically, if you are taking screenshots to share on the internets, you want to set your console to full before you do it.

However, remember the full setting doesn't look right in many games because the Microsoft encouraged range and Xbox One default is limited....JStevenson talked about this when addressing crushed Blacks in Sunset Overdrive..

That said we're using HDTV standard called rec-709 for color space display. That standard uses a gamma curve that's darker, especially in very dark colors, and expects colors to be in the limited range (ie 16-235).

We use that standard by default, and it's the XB1 default and it is the encouraged range by MSFT since its HDTVs are what most people will be playing on.

 

[Kssio_Aug]

Hopefully they will add a option to upload your screenshots and videos to a external HD or OneDrive!

Also, I hope XboxClips.com update the website with the screenshots option.

Even if you get an invite getting into the preview isn't instant and you won't be getting this preview before it goes live, sorry

 

[Deviousx]

Been through every single page in this thread. These shots look amazing! The Forza Horizon 2 and AC Unity shots in particular... LAWD! I can't wait for the March update to drop.

Thank you MS! =D

Trying out the screenshot with Ryse. Good excuse to replay the game

 

[Suburban_Nooblet]

Sweet baby fuck. I love this so much.

Playing through Sleeping Dogs and figured why not take some.

Ryse is fucking awesome and looks absolutely glorious. I am wanting to play it again.

Major bummer! Thanks for the info to you and the others. Guess I'll just have to wait.

Just stand next to a wall and move the camera around until Arno disappears
