@master2g "Vaseline on my screen" LOLOL. Yup, I never could figure out why NFS2015 was designed to be so blurry!
Being able to make adjustments on the fly is a great feature. I'm not sure of the current state of GEMfx because I haven't messed with it in probably a year. At the time, you couldn't make adjustments on the fly because it had to hook the game on startup. The games I adjusted with it primarily was Rome Total War 2, Batman Arkham Asylum, Batman Arkham City, and Batman Arkham Origins. I tweaked the Batman games shortly after they released the remastered versions for the consoles, and I was curious to see what improvements I could get by modding the PC versions... It took hours (I'm sure you can relate) but I'm happy to say they look incredible. By modifying the texture fidelity in the config files, maxing out settings in-game, using Nvidia control panel, and tweaking color and effects using GEMfx, I was able to duplicate the visual quality of the remasters. The only things still lacking were some of the effects that simply weren't available in the games 8- 10 years ago.
Unfortunately my GTX690 is unable to take any kind of a performance hit trying to run Payback (there's no SLI profile, which I could greatly use). I'm averaging around 34 FPS, which is playable for me, but in the tunnels it tanks to the low 20s and I usually crash because of it.
Anyways, for everyone else, sorry to get off-topic. I'll post some car pics when I'm home and have the time...
LOL..it was a odd visual issue in 2015 that's for sure. I love Payback for the most part but i found the lighting not quite clear and bright as it would be for real and the dark shadow areas were just that , to dark and the blacks were crushed. I had for me at least a annoying flicker to trees and grass texture when ever i drove to, as soon as i did any movement the flickering started. Almost like a overlay or something that was broken. Anyways short story is reshade did the trick in fixing what i didn't like . 🙂
I can related. We wont start on how many hours...ahem ok months I spent learning and modding that game. Saying that i can certainly relate. I have all 3 of those Batman games as well and i love them. Never got to Knight yet. Thats awesome you tweaked them and Id love to see some shots . Maybe PM some via a link to a site you may have some uploaded to ?.
That sucks about the SLI deal. I have been using a single card since back in my HD6990 DAYS So I never knew PB didn't support dual GPU .
I don't think it matters we got off topic....we are the only ones here lol :eahigh_file:.
@master2g Ah yes, I'd like to show you some comparison screenshots of the Arkham games because I'm quite proud of them.... I'll see what I can do... maybe I can sneak a few in here in-between some car pics LOL....
Anyways, for now here's a couple of my runner cars. The Charger takes loose inspiration from NFS Carbon, specifically the wrap design for Samson, one of your crew members if you choose the "Muscle" career path:
And here is Jess's Audi S5 Sportback with a little bit more flare than the stock version that she starts out with:
You can't see it but the license plate reads "ODDJOB." 😉
@Jabberwocky79, i like both but im leaning towards that really great stripe job you did on the Charger. Still the hood stripe on Jesse car is cool 2.
I think to hard when doing my plates. Always trying to come up with one offs for each of my cars. Its a neat plate you came up with .
Here's mine. I also have a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0E8GvHb82s0
Heh, thank you very much! Not many parts left from the silver green pearl base 180SX :D.
@Ristoro: To be honest I didn't click on your video the first time. Glad Master2g commented on it... Yeah, that was awesome! That's what NFS is about!
His build story idea in the video reminded me of the cool write up you did over in the Spring Event post about your Twisted Metal Volvo. I dig the back story ideas a lot.
