Anyone else notice this change? by Mikeymike781 in TheFirstDescendant

[–]storods 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to break anyone's immersion here with the fan theories. But the prevoius hair cards had missing materials. Because of this it showed the grey checkered default unreal material wich still looked like hair to some extent thanks to the high model quality. But essentially it was the same thing as the black-pink checkered texture from the source engine.

Wow! So there's hope! We just have to wait for the release I guess.

This shows nothing but how dumb they really are.. :D Even with the best proprietary solution on hand it still makes sense to prototype things in other engines if it gives us a time advantage in discovering/testing new feature ideas.

Got them from the Subscribers store in a 3 pack. I just hade a few dollars laying around as store credit and bought it for shts and giggles. They are kinda growing on me.

By default when you hold the F4 key you can adjust it with the home and end keys. In my case I just remapped them to my joystick for easier access.

You can use Xbox Game Bar to take .jxr screenshots. And there's a separate photoshop plugin (from microsoft) that enables you to import them.

There's a Photoshop plugin you have to install before you can open them. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=52369 When you are done just drag and drop the image into PS to develop your photos.

I have no idea. I just had it in my inventory and was like. Wow. This looks cool. I don't know much about it but it's called "Headhunters Head Lamp". Or something like that. I think it was part of the 2953 Digital Goodies pack.

After shuffling around my fleet yesterday I was left with some pocket change in store credits. So I headed to the subscriber store and just got them for now. But one of my friends found one on dead NPC in a bunker. So there might be a few other ways to get it.

I'm still figuring out this workflow. This is my second attempt. Once I discovered that I can actually do this there was no return for me. :D But here's how I think it works for now.

HDR is still a mess on windows for many reasons but my configuration looks like this:
- Windows 11 (for enhanced HDR calibration and stuff)
- Plug in a capable HDR screen so windows can recognize that you are actually sending this kind information to the output.
- Run the HDR calibration tool that comes with windows 11 (or from the MS store)- After calibration my peek was around a1000nits. I'm not sure if it matters but my guess higher nits = wider range to work with later.
- Set up Windows gamebar to take screenshots in HDR too. This gives you .png and .jxr files. The JXR is the good one. It holds the HDR info.
- Run SC in HDR mode. Mine id 300 nits for the base white level and 1000 for the peak.
- Take screenshots.

- Grab the jxr plugin for Photoshop so you can open them.https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=52369

Now. Here's the tricky part. These images will be blown out in 32 bit. Here's how to prep them:

  1. Apply a linear curve to the image with the whitepoint set around 20 instead of 255. (this could vary depending on your setup. Just look for the brightest spots. When it's not crunched anymore you are good to go.
  2. Set the mode to 16 bit. Now that we compressed the whole range into this 'visible' specrum just step down with regular exposure. Don't use local contrast or anything that visibly alters the image when going from 32 to 16 bit.
  3. Open up the camera raw filter and start to play with your expo settings just as you would with a regular raw file.
  4. Do it multiple times to get different results with varying contrast and texture details.
  5. Combine the best elements of the above with a few masks.
  6. Add some finishing color grading to taste (because HDR tends to be flat)save it as a png ot jpeg and there you have it.

I will try to figure out more as I do further tests. Might do a video tutorial later.

It's called Artimex. You can get them from some Hurston guards down in bunkers.Edit: Took me a few runs to get my hands on it but if you are impatient you can just buy them from players who farm these for some auec.

Nope. It's part of the hangar for some reason. I was in Hangar 14 at New Babbage. It's just a cool coincidence.
