@Windshifter1 No that’s completely fine, I’m so happy I finally have someone for them. Thanks so much in advance, I’ll tag you on the unlisted version.

@Rocketguy2079 Sure, I'd be happy to - but only if you can wait until monday. I'm currently overseas right now, hence the late response.

Hey mate, I was recommended by @Tingly06822 for some screenshots. I’ve got a build that I’m hoping to post soon, and your screenshots look great!

@windshifter1 can you make reshade thumbnail for my plane?

@windshifter1 those look way better imo

@32 What do you think about my latest screenshots, for the BMW-M340i by Tingly?
Here are the shots, using the new reshade preset.

I found taking off SCurve (Whatever that is - I saw it was recommended by a few people and just threw it in) improved it quite a bit. I also added a bit of far DOF, and a few other bits and pieces.

Now those are some crispy shots

@windshifter1 afaik LevelsPlus just straight up increases contrast on everything. I'd try disabling that or at the very least trying to tone back the effect. If you're using LevelsPlus for some other reason, or this just isn't working, use a different preset with a higher priority to lower contrast or straight up edit the image in literally every editing software ever made. I threw that last one in the Windows default image viewer thingy and put it at -90 contrast and it was perfect.

also in my last comment I accidentally said saturation instead of contrast, my bad

dayum

@32 And thanks on that last part!

@32 I entirely agree. The first and last shots are the preset itself, but for the middle two I had to add Adaptive Tonemapper to brighten the scene. The scene was so dark, even at midday, you couldn't see a thing.

That's the one issue with the preset, its too dark, making it struggle in low light environments. Any suggestions other than AdaptiveTonemapper to enhance the lighting?

It looks great but that saturation is way too high. Try toning it back a little bit. That last picture looks quite good except for how weirdly dark the plane is. If this were a night/sunset shot it would be perfect but direct daylight is weird. Gives off crusty vibes on what are otherwise very well put-together images. I would like to compliment the framing and composition of these screenshots, that's one part of your skills that I have seen improve quite a bit.

@windshifter1
Interesting.
Do you have a different present for night scenes?
I love those ones.

also that last picture is fire to me

@windshifter1 ill have smthn for you to do screenshots on soon. just waiting on someone to do something

@windshifter1 ah

@TheMouse I see what you mean. The issue was that the scene was way too dark from that angle, so I had to add something extra to boost the light. This preset does best in high light environments, but fails at things like sunrises and sunsets.

@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26
Use the following effects:
MXAO (Ambient Occlusion set to 2)
Scurve
SMAA
LevelsPlus

In certain scenes you may need extra light. If so, add the following:
AdaptiveTonemapper

Oh, and they're all the same preset! The one you pointed out just used the AdaptiveTonemapper as well because it was too dark.

I really like it!
Although, for the second comparison, (and for the others too, but not as much) it seems almost as if there is too much saturation or smth. (Idk what that is called in reshade terms).
The aircraft carrier looks too black and white over in the back left.
All the other ones are perfect though, especially the first one, there is a huge improvement there.

As much as I like the second one, it would murder my pc, can you give me the reshape preset for the first please

@TheUltimatePlaneLover @Icey21 @Solent Fixed. I had to use a different hosting platform.

@Solent @Icey21 @TheUltimatePlaneLover
Its just refusing to cooperate, even on my end. I managed to get some working, so at least you can get a bit of an idea

yes i do love nonexistant screenshots

Photos not visible but will note anyway :fire:
