MELE Photo Mode

Argh, since Legendary Explorer has been released, and I'm impatient waiting on other modders to provide Femshep with some decent hairstyles, I have been busy trying to do it myself.

And succeeded in porting some ME3 ones done by others. Now choices, choices...

Trying to try some new hairstyles (credits @ Anto, Kittentails, NameIsLooney etc. for the original Meshes and ME3 conversions):





Since hairstyles is now easy to do, next thing to do is outfits. And Traynor's hair, since "Classy" is way overused (no insult intended for you Classy-lovers!)

Out of those options I would prefer the third one.



Speaking of which though I was playing Citadel today and wondered, not for the first time, that the hoodie...while quite awesome and fetching...I really wish they would've included the N7 t-shirt and just the t-shirt...hell maybe even throw in some shorts . Just hoodies are cool and that hoodie is the coolest but it could probably get more then a little warm wearing it while 'in doors' all the time. And it might make some cutscenes even *better*

Her reaction to this was very sheepish when I told her.    Sadly she doesen't think she has anything to contribute given she says she isn't 'as big of a bioware fan as the rest of us'.  She's just into the trilogy...and sometimes I think just into the Garrus Shepard ship.

It's your TV settings. HDR is awesome. Assuming your TV does in fact have HDR, I could get it looking awesome in less than 30 minutes. 😉

Some people really do just like things super bright. I worked in a "High Performance" audio/video place for a while. We'd put a "retail display" next to a carefully calibrated beauty, and some people preferred the "display mode".

To be specific, display modes are super bright in order to outshine overhead fluorescents, sun glare, and the 200 units next to it. A calibrated TV gives finely balanced colors, darks and whites. You can see great detail in even the dimmest light. Some people just didn't care. Of course, they were probably in the wrong store. 😄

I'm going to see if I can find any good article or video tutorials.

In a few minutes of browsing, I did discover that HDR is appearing on many TVs, now. It was pretty much Sony's game a few years ago, unless you were able to spend a lot. CNET had an article saying that some TVs simply do not do HDR well.

I'll see what I find and PM you. It might not be immediate, since I shouldn't even be on BSN right now. I'm supposed to be involved in a Zoom meeting right now. Oops. Guess I prefer talking Mass Effect with my BSN buddies. 😀

Note that these shots involve the use of Nvidia filters, not just in-game photo mode:

Everyone's pics look great. This is a photogenic game and all of you grab good pics.

I'm strongly considering finally getting into PC gaming. Threads like these, and others featuring all the great mods, make me want to do it.

Yay and then you can carry me in MP. 

I don't normally play MP because I don't like being the weakest link but I tried MEAMP because I really liked combat in MEA about 4 months ago and quite enjoyed it but then dislocated my thumb. Keep meaning to pick it up again but have been too busy with AC Valhalla and now MELE.

Do you use Origin to play MET etc.? If so you can friend me if you want DazK1805 and maybe we will cross paths.
