(Redwing, Mysticpuma and many others) I'd tell You, but then I'd have to shoot You down ? Seriously, I don't have any "magic settings" but I think every plane has it's own best angle of view and when you combine that with a right angle of light and reflection, sometimes you get nice results. Downside is, I can easily spend one hour working for that one right shot...! 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Redwing, Mysticpuma and many others) 4K, free camera. Nvidia settings are pretty much run by the game, but I have all the BoX graphics settings on maximum, then it's a case of playing with the time of day for better lightning, playing with the clouds to get an interesting set and then different levels of zoom and camera position (free camera). As Redwing says, it can take a while but worth it in the long run? Edited July 20, 2023 by Mysticpuma 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's hard to believe that post processing wasn't needed... and, no, I'm not doubting a bit. Just goes to show that excellent quality can be achieved with the raw screenshot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mazex Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 (edited) Fun idea, this one actually made it into the release notes of some patch after I posted it in some thread the day before. I think that the patch included visual stuff to make cannon hits more visible EDIT: and wow, been a while since I visited the forum due to vacation - so I can see it's already concluded. And a worthy winner! And a 70:ies comic book version of it that I made after that Edited August 6, 2023 by mazex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
