Man, I am anticipating this so much it's ridiculous!

 

[KeeperOTF]

might be interesting: I asked essenthy if he already did changes to the bad wether envs, and got this response; slightly nothing major, more dof, more ao and consistent coloring with normal weather

 

[rejzorback]

Did he betray the date of issue 2.3?

 

[minicrom]

Unfortunalty noooooooo

Essenthy wrote on twitter that KM was never shown in E3 2014 graphic style. I will leave this here... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vHw8dqOIB4 (I know it is very short but shows enough details I guess)

That's just Velen.

Edit: That's probably KM, you were right, if you look on the mountains it seems like it is Kear Morhen.

This is from Sword of Destiny trailer


Don't know if this is actually in-game screenshot, or just pre rendered custscene.

did think of this one too, and it is actually how bad weather should look if you ask me.

No Title

One more pic from Essenthy

 

[minicrom]

Not only it's a new pic but he also said he manage to change fog according to the time of day! That's amazing !!

 

[Spiderous]

Yes he did, and I quote:

finally managed to create a proper automatio curve for the fog density, sunset/dusk/night= foggy, daylight = very low fog !

Nice well on another note, still lighting /env. related, this http://www.nexusmods.com/witcher3/mods/2139/? was just released

 

[Quantifiable]

that entire trailer was pre rendered

Why would it be pre-rendered? What reason is there to assume that?

At first. Every SS is just soo beautiful. That KaerMorhen looks fantastic. But essenthy . Guy in that https://goo.gl/nUvLZE page made another lighting mod. I think he made the lbrightness of this version is perfectly same with E3 build. Shiny sun and not over saturated colors. It looks like it is still achivible with current engine. So only weak side of STLM is it is a bit dark. If you can make the brightness (or whatever it is technically) same as this STLM almost will be E3 build version.

2.3 in Novigrad is way brighter now. Almost identical I dare say At least according to the wip.

i explained this over and over again but you dont seems to understand, they changed the lighting system from the E3 build, its not possible to achieve the same brightness without breaking many things ( exposure, sunligh, sky, sun shaft, bloom ect ...), and those things are extremely hard to fix, many variables are linked together making it nearly impossible to adapt to a brighter tone mapping, just looking at that mod screen shots i can see many problems already that ive gone thru months ago

and to make things even worse, they made the assets with a certain level of exposure, wich mean if you make everythings brighter, everythings break, you lose details on textures, characters skin become bruned ect ...

and even then, the game simply look flat if i make it look exactly like E3 ( its very easy ) because of the assets quality downgrade to begin with

you can take any game that was released since this new consoles gen, they all have the same level of brightness when it come to lighting, its juts a consoles limitation that cant be overcome

 

[minicrom]

But you still managed to make a brighter right? I had the feeling in the wip that 2.3 Novigrad is brighter than 2.2 but maybe it's just me.
