Windows Defender does not seem to like Otis's camera tools. It keeps getting deleted until I turn defender off... grrrrrr. Otis, why you trying to install malware on my system?

:P

EDIT: Malwarebytes throwing it out too.

Turn defender off, and add a exclusion for the file, then turn it back on and you're good to go! That's what i did.

Yeah Windows really doesn't like it.

Indeed. I love Langgi's Nier shots :)

Thanks! You guys' shots are far better than mine tbh.
Automata is such a great game, I wish Square/Platinum would eventually patch the PC version. It's silly they never did anything to the game despite its commercial and critical success.


The vegetation / foliage in this game is surprisingly detailed and well-made. Many of your shots seem to highlight this, which was really cool.
Before that, I was under the impression the game's all brown, sand and desert with some structures to climb :D

These AC:O shots melt my eyes. I want to play it but I am playing Black Flag right now. Argh!
You're playing the better game.
ACO really isn't anything special graphically compared to other AC titles & my god it has to be one of the most boring games i've ever played.
Black flag was the last good AC game imho.

Thanks for the warning. Hopefully it will not be a boring game as I love Egypt setting. I like AC in general so I am looking forward to it.

Huh, I thought Origins supposed to be good. I mean, many reviews said so.

I guess I'll pick it up once the Discovery Mode released (and probably on good discount). Virtual tourism is always my reason to play AC, the gameplay never clicked on me xD

It's not a bad game, it even runs pretty well which is a win by itself for Ubisoft.
It's just an incredibly boring game with the same old ubisoft filler content everywhere & the story is just so uninteresting.
You'll find yourself skipping dialogue all the time just to progress.
And don't get me started on the combat, you'll either like it or completely hate it.

Edit: Nice Nioh shot, Nvidia should be ashamed of themselves for that disgusting Ansel restrictions in the camera AGAIN.
I really wish they would give users more freedom and allow ReShade overlay to work over Ansel.

It's a shame the assets are the same across all versions. If the textures in this game were better on PC... dayum. Wish we could have mods for it.

NFS Payback

Just a few quick shots taken while playing around in photo mode. Photo mode desperately needs an option to toggle motion blur on/off, otherwise it's perfect.
I also noticed the game has some unknown (to me) ambient occlusion technique called AAO, doesn't seem as profound as HBAO, even so at times it seems like no AO is applied at all when using AAO.
I have to say now that I've played it myself, it isn't as "realistic" looking as NFS15 but it definitely does not look worse. This is a game that has to be seen in motion to actually understand how good it looks. I love the way Ghost approached the dynamic usage of different post processing effects like vignette, ca, film grain, crossprocessing etc. As I said, wonderful in motion.

Does the game actually have many bad assets/textures? From what I've seen it looks fine to me in that area. I'm more concerned about the lack of SSR or decent reflections in these environments making the game look like a whole other game.

Those were captured with in game photomode, which disables post processing and made the reflections look worse. This one was captured with Otis tools and made it look better. Reflections while looking lil bit better, still are a far cry from what we wished it would look like.

Finally, daylight in NFS! Do they let players fine tune individual effects this time? Because that'd be cool.
I remember Frostbite games always dump all postprocessings in one 'Effect Details' option, going from low to ultra. Which I personally dislike, because I can't tell what I am adjusting.

They're ok? I just see a lot of blurry rock\terrain textures. And some rather poor quality armor textures.

Look at this road right next to me. And the terrain up ahead. Some of that is due to LOD\grass rendering distance... but still. Ick.

Well ok that's not okay. I just said from what I've seen and that's basically shots in this thread and watching my brother play the game on a 4K tv and I didn't see anything like that then. Since I didn't notice such, are those kind of textures something that come across constantly?

Yeah alright that's a lot better.

Well in photo mode you can adjust RGB hue, contrast, vibrance, different dof variables, vehicle damage, passenger visibility, color palette (filters), vignette, film grain, lens distortion, ca, etc etc...
As for post processing or effect details options in graphic settings, there's an option for both effect detail & post processing ranging from low to ultra. I have to run the game on high graphics preset because 1xxx series cards suffer DirectX error crashing issues with everything on ultra.

Eh. Kinda. I didn't go looking for them. That just happened to be where I was at the time when I loaded up the game. Sometimes everything looks great. But it's mostly out in the open world where I notice stuff like that.

Anyways... this armor looks fantastic. Massive slog to get it though.

I admit I'm always a bit... miffed and yet amused, maybe? when I see complaints about "blurry textures" or whatnot, on a massively high-budget, jaw-droppingly beautiful AAA game rendered gloriously in 8k etc. I just think, "man, these people will never be happy". :P

....That's one of the coolest armour/out designs I've ever seen. Holy hell, it is glorious. <3
