******Official Star Citizen / Squadron 42 Thread******

Hey guys,

Do you feel the graphics are washed out in certain places, for example when I come up on Port Olisar flight deck everything seems so white, the sun reflections blinding etc.

I have a config file with certain settings but I feel sometimes the graphics are great then at other times they don't look that great due to lighting.

\o/ I know it s alpha but I videos from streamers and theirs does not look like mine so I am trying to figure out what to change.

Can you add some example screenshots? it would help if we could see what you are talking about.

If you haven't already DL MSI AB, Scroll right to the bottom and get the last one on the list, install... to get screenshot click on the gear cog, screen capture tab and set it up how you like.

Some of us do yes, not all the time tho, usually we have one or two organised sessions a week.

There are Org's on page #1, most of the regulars in this thread are here..

The Olisar pads are somewhat washed away with the lighting, although im not sure if its fully justified because black space and black surface but with sunlight hitting the deck its going to look grey and a bit wishy-washy.

However with you mentioning you feel your version looks worse than streamers, makes me a little confused and perhaps you're getting something emphasised even more.

Ignoring your possible issue, its quite likely that the lighting is just a placeholder for the time being and once that lad who's already done some impressive stuff in the budget hangar and GrimHEX (A18 too i think) is tasked with stuff like this, it could look much nicer on the eye and not like you're at 500% gamma.
It could do with a touch of colour, like a colour blinking light around landing pads, the markings being coloured too. Just feels very sun bleached as it is, but then the basic Olisar was built in ~2wk iirc so not built like your average planetside location or ship would be, with a style guide and various iterations till CR & co was happy with it.
 
Wait for the screenshots to see whats up, if those streamers are using SweetFX it will look very different.
 
I am so tempted to get an Andromeda in the future I flew around in it a few times and fell in love with it!

I had a 4 way firefight near Kareah after a few people snuck aboard someones Connie, once the pilot got out it turned into a close quarters battle on board the ship haha. I ran out of ammo but managed to kill everyone else and take the ship for myself muhahaha.

Ducking and weaving through hatch ways god it was fun.

Heres the video anyway.

 
Man, this game looks awesome (CCP do this with EvE, please)... Imagine if they did a ABP like game next, I would 100% play that if they got rid of the bugs, made it where it had this much to do & got rid of the hackers... Hope when it comes out a upgrade won't be $1k...
 
Edward if in doubt, wait until release which is likely 18 months away for single player and 2 years + for multi player, hopefully less on both of those I guess..
 

Having some fun at Kareah killing campers haha.

I was flying around eva and either getting close enough to board or come down from above and kill them as they left there ships!

Was so much fun!

Can't wait to join yall tonight.

Not that i mind, i like watching others SC vids.

Thats a good point, and i suppose letting us roam around freely would not be a good idea, Impman will be crashing into everything in sight, Worzel will want to kill everything he sees, Raumarik will spend the rest of his life burgling residence for Whisky and no ones 300 series ship will be safe with me in the area :D

That video looked really impressive. Looks smooth as butter.

I also lol'd at the 3min mark when the guy gets shot at, and the HUD looks like it takes damage on the 'blood loss detected' bit. I cant quite understand that, seems excessively novelty and unrealistic, funny the first time but kinda weird after that.

Someone has transferred it to youtube, however apparently YT's quality for 60fps is junk compared to Vimeo, so theres no point in linking to that because IMO its not all that impressive if the silky smooth-ness is gone.
In fact, im going to leave a link just for a 2nd viewing to see how bad YT seems to be, even with 60fps video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAbtzAh5NXs just make sure you see the Vimeo one (only viewable via RSI website it seems, blocked on vimeo itself)
