SH5 Realistic Photo Thread.

[mr chris]

Thought it was about time we had a SH5 version of a old favourite SH3 thread.

Crikey ! Chris it took over a minute to open :o

Nice shot though :DL:up:

[mr chris]

:oops: Will try to remember to resize in future.

[SabreHawk]

Ahhhh just pullin yer chain mate, but my appoligies as I forgot to compliment the pic itself. :03:
It is nice................:rock:

[kylania]

:oops: Will try to remember to resize in future.

Photoshop can get that down to 700k or so by dropping to Medium Quality, you'll only lose a small amount of detail and color surprisingly. Resizing to 1024 can get you down to 300k. Personally I like the high rez shots. :)

[SabreHawk]

I use photobucket for all my online posted pics, and it has it's own editing function as well as a host of other things.
Resizing is a 5 second operation once the shot is uploaded and I always resize to 800x600 for posting on forums. And in this way it doesn't come out so wide that folks have to scroll left to right and up and down to view the entire image, and even then only seeing a small prtion of it at one time.
In fact it keeps the post to the same width as the rest and fits the screen.
Luckily on this forum a large image doesn't force all the post's on that same page to go that wide, only the post with the image gets stretched unlike some other forums which would cause the entire page to stretch and then one has to scroll left to right to read others posts untill the next page.

[captainprid]

That pic is truly brilliant!!!


Shame it requires better spec than SHV to open!!!:up:

Just drop me a message and i will upload it.

summer 42, 0400, fog, looking for a convoy in the Arctic.

[Ablemaster]

Nice shot Bilge rat, wonder what its like in B+W, may still capture that misty look.

[Caleb141]

How do you take shots without the UI on?

[Defiance]

Default keys to knock UI off are Shift + Z

ps: Ctrl + F11 takes a screenshot

[Defiance]

Two pics both unedited

Tried to capture a nice dank atmosphere

What did you use to get the streaks/creases on your photo? I've been looking for a good filter or something to do that.

Yea it a Hawker in front of a B-24. Both Hawker and B-24 Cockpit come from real photos across Internet and both planes still fly (that what they ve been doing in the original photos) :)

Very nicely done, man. We demand an encore production!

That shot is especially beautiful to me, for a couple of reasons.

1. Not all actual WW2 photos are grainy and scratched-looking. Some of them are exceptionally crisp and clear, and yours looks very real in that respect.

2. That doesn't work so well with SH3, since the clearer it is the more obvious that it's from a game. SH5 is so much better in that respect that your shot really does look like an original photograph.

I love it!:rock:

Here is one that I did just using a screen-shot by Kylania from the regualr photo thread. I don't have the game, YET!, but the graphics and photos are making my try my hand with the microsoft photo-album, picture marker, wish-I-was-photoshop.

All I did was place it in black and white, and threw the contrast way up. This was originally a twilight pic.


http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4019/4532814369_b35bb0f5c3_o.jpg

I've been having fun asking friends to date this photo. They are baffled when I tell them it wasn't taken in 1942.Page of the original pic.

Absolutely!
Thanks mr chris...
on another note, what program are people using here to create these?
Is everyone pretty much using the same app, or most of you different apps?
Which app is the best to use? And user-friendly?
The black and white effect in particular interests me...

[Task Force]

as in a screen shot, you can use a program like fraps/or press F11

to edit, Photoshop or gimp im guessing.

[mr chris]

Am in the process of uploading my screens. As soon as it is finished will post the link.
All my screens are in the folder. Black and white photo shops and the original in game shots.

Edit: I'm afraid due to Cypriot internet being absolutely farking useless.:nope::nope::nope: Im not going to be able to upload the screens until i move back to England in July. Sorry.

For Tweaking my shots i use Photoshop CS4.

[robbo180265]

@Feuer Frei link to my HiRez shots when they come up on screen Right Click Save As to your H/D I use Corel Paint Shop Pro X3 much cheaper than PhotoShop and just as good IMO.

I'm sorry to disagree, but Coronas doesn't post photographs. He's a master artist and posts his own paintings! :D:rock:

@ Sober: I keep looking at that liner and telling myself it really is a photo of a real ship. Do you have the original color screenshot for comparison?

smoke can be as dense as it wishes....one thing I hate though is
smokestacks that suddenly ends 500m up in the air.

Really kills the immersion for me.

Nice screen Gunfighter :yeah: , Silent Hunter 5 is the first of the Silent Hunter serie with the water weaves in three dimension , and this is NOT the only improvement over the older versions of this serie , walking all along the interior " and the exterior " of the sub , Full Dynamic Shadows, animated water flooding inside the compartements ,working engine arms ,etc etc etc and even the hot soup inside the kitchen, yes I know SH5 is not yet perfect but for 20 bucks we cannot get the Whole Earth and also the Moon

@Gunfighter: The new picture with the taller smoke columns looks a lot better, plus it looks like the smoke is dissipating more at the top. Very good work sir :up:

First thank You for reply I am aware you cannot sticky every Thread but it is very popular and has had over 20,000 hits alot more than some threads that are stickied and I think a Relistic Photo Thread is completly different to Photo N Video Thread besides that they dont like us posting Edited photos or screenShots in that thread. so I ask again please could we have Relistic Photo Thread stickied.I am sure the rest of the Guys that post here would want it.Or could you have a word with Neil:06:

@[501]Otto great shot (inside sub)

[Karasunx]

[501]Otto, your pics are awesome. The textures you used to make your screenshots look aged/scratched/worn are just amazing. Do you just photoshop it or is there another program you use?

[mr chris]

I have to agree with Steve and Jim.
The SH3 thread was always on the front page. If this thread continues to be as popular as it has been you will be able to find it easy enough without a sticky.

Keep up the great shots guys.

[Fincuan]

Nice, although it's sad to see they haven't really bothered with historical accuracy.

The first production Spit with a bubble-canopy, a MK XIV, was delivered in December 1944. The first prototype with this feature, a MK VIII, flew in September 1943. The squadron most likely to carry the id-letters VZ during the SH5 timeframe, No. 412 squadron of the RCAF (http://rcaf.com/Squadrons/squadronDetail.php?No.-412-Squadron-71), probably received it's first bubble-canopy Spits when they received MK XVIs in May 1945.

[[501]Otto]

[501]Otto, your pics are awesome. The textures you used to make your screenshots look aged/scratched/worn are just amazing. Do you just photoshop it or is there another program you use?
Thx.... and, yes, it is a mixture of Photoshop and another program, one quite simple to use. It´s called PhotoScape, once you have your pic "modified" with photoshop, use the other program; under filters you can find one that makes your pics look old (at different degrees). IMO it is better to apply low degrees several times than using a higher one once, makes it more realistic and clear.

I thought this as well but assumed that the Spit had been shopped on. Is it an in game shot then?
