The Very Best ME:A Screenshot Thread (with tips)

I do have a gtx card -- and see below, lol

Thanks for the answers praxati and amoebae.  I did try Ansel as it seems to finally be working with Andromeda, but it really does not let you pull out far at all.  It has nice effects for my own personal stuff, but doesn't hold a candle to the stuff you guys post.

Space is at a premium on my computer so I probably won't be downloading anything for some time, so I will just admire from the shadows and perhaps join in at a later time.

Thank you both and narcoticbiotic for all the answers and help.

Yeah, I'm getting stuttering in cutscenes that wasn't there before. And I'm not sure what to call it...the adaptation?...drives me nuts in places now. Where things are uber dark and then lightens up when you look at something else, or vice versa. It was there before, but not so extreme. I'm honestly starting to wish I could take back the update, lol. The only thing that I'm happy about so far with it is that I'm getting way more banter. 

I'm surprised by how much I enjoy taking pictures of the Nomad. I follow a lot of people on flickr who take a lot of Forza and NFS pictures, and while I certainly appreciate them it's not really my kind of thing.

But here I am, thinking about how I can make the Nomad look more badass, and which paint job looks the best in pictures (tip: don't even consider anything other than the shiny platinum black on Voeld - or most other places, but definitely Voeld), making sure I have 6-wheel drive on for the spiffy little orange light, making sure I turn the wheels at *just* the right moment before I hit pause so they look more dynamic, etc.

The Nomad is the 7th squad mate.

Have you noticed that the uber-shiny paint jobs flicker? I had to stop using them because they didn't display right. Since the update, they do now so I can start using them again. I really like the gold one. 

THE NOMAD HAS LIGHTS?

This is revolutionary.

MelissaGT - I hadn't noticed any flickering, actually. I'll look out for it. Maybe I'm lucky and didn't get any?

I can never find a good angle for the Nomad, but I've been admiring your pictures of it! I've made it my personal challenge to find a place where my favourite Nebula paint job actually looks cool enough for a nice shot.


I haven't updated the game yet, but I really need to because I haven't had any squad banter for like 40 hours and it's taking all the fun out of exploring. Not that I'm doing much, now that screenshotting is taking up so much of my playtime, but it kinda goes hand in hand. Don't want to advance without banter, so I've been killing even more time taking screenshots. Sometimes I think I should just do it, just download the thing to force myself to actually live in the moment a little without the ability to stop at every turn looking for the best shots.

Got some more Nomad love for you guys. 

SO HAPPY to see all the Nomad love. i thought it was weird, how i instantly felt this bond to a pixel vehicle. but there's just something about it. this big, rumbly-grumbly, six-wheeled teddy bear.

This may or may not work, I've never try this with an Origin game.

Two words: System Restore

What it does: Rollback all the software changes within your computer that was made after the restore point. It won't affect your other files, ie; photos, video, documents and such. Only software will be affected. You can also reverse the rollback as well. So not a lot of risk there.

How: Type 'System Restore' in your start menu, press enter, go to System Restore, pick a restore point. Very simple. Same goes If you want to reverse it. 

^Try it and let us know the result!   
I would recommend backing up your save files first, however. 

Anyway, guys, I just spent the last 4 hours shooting Nomad picture. Here's the result.





^That last one is probably the best screenshot of the Nomad I'll ever take.

The use of headlights is outstanding. Really adds a lot to the pictures. Great work.
