Graphics in The Witcher
So, although the vast majority of what I have seen so far has impressed me greatly there seems to be a few individuals that keep popping up in different forums that seem to think the visuals in this game are somewhat lacking. ???As I think these people must be on some form of medication that’s altering their perceptions I decided to try and break that illusion by uploading a tiny (less than a minute long) look at one of the very first environments in the game (during the tutorial phase) so as not to spoil anything for anyone.Its worth noting although it has “Bedroom” in the name its not that kind of movie, its just a quick look at one of the countless stunning environments in the game running of a decent user rig (not an uber games show rig).I recorded the clip at the full 1680x1050 resolution I play at with the frames per second limited to 29 in fraps but as I needed to convert the file from the 2 Gb avi file that Fraps created I used Windows Movie Maker to make it a much more manageable 1280x720 25 fps wmv file that weighs in at less than 30 Mb.The only problem now is finding a free video streaming host that allows that res to display for uploads I tried everyone I could find with the aid of google but at this point none of them retain quality or even work in some cases so I have resorted to using FileFront, sorry I know people don’t like downloading files but I just cant find a single video host that can handle what it needs to.Anyway, here a couple of quick images showing the room followed by the link to the mini-vid.[IMAGE Link] The Witcher – Location 01a (1680x1050)[IMAGE Link] The Witcher – Location 01b (1680x1050)[VIDEO link wmv (31mb) version shrunk to 1280x720][VIDEO link divx (22mb) version 1280x720][VIDEO link divx (7mb) version 600x400ish]
