Kiht Jakkya... Is annoyed with you!

RE: The Screenshot Thread - Elyscia - 02-23-2014

Clover: do you edit your screenshots per chance or are you just a really good screenshotter/photographer?  My graphics are set to Maximum but I don't think they ever come out as crisp and saturated.

RE: The Screenshot Thread - Clover - 02-23-2014

Haha, they're edited ^o^;
I wish I could mod the game like Skyrim to improve the graphics without Photoshop's help.

My favorite, so far~! (Album: here )

It took me a stupid amount of time to realise I wasn't staring at a rock.

The closest you can get to changing in game look is using SweetFX. I would explain it but I'm not that great at it so I would just Google it.

EDIT
My contribution to the thread. There are before and afters in my Imgur album in my signature if anyone is interested in seeing the differences.

Just at the wrong time, but it made this a little funnier, IMO.

Based on what I've seen in these and others that use Sweet FX, I think the lighting looks better and more natural without it. Same with the Photoshop filter. Love these screenshots, though!

The settings for SweetFX are completely customizable, that's the great thing about it. I choose settings that were warmer though so lights are a bit more red. The biggest reason I use it is for the sharpen option, whenever I turn it off everything looks blurry and I can't stand it. Not that I'm trying to sell it to you or anything!

Haha, Merri and K'mih would get along. I love seeing characters' charisma reflected in screenshots, very nice job!

Rinette: I used SweetFX in the past, until my comp died and I had to reinstall FFXIV. If I have to choose... I guess I've come to prefer vanilla FFXIV since it's softer, but SweetFX did really wonderful things at some maps.

Oh! I've heard that FFXIV's graphics will improve with the DX11 version @_@
I can't wait to see the changes, if any. This kind of update always makes me very excited.

RE: The Screenshot Thread - Aldotsk - 02-24-2014

I'd really like to learn Clover and Merri's method of screenshotting and rendering these photos. Does SweetFX actually make a lot of difference by enhancing it's shadings and coloring?
