Some nice screenshots...

brihtwulf

I was just playing tonight, and found a couple nice areas that I thought warrented screenshots.  These are from Kojan, near the Wood Elf starting area.  The character pictured is my Wood Elf bard.  These are taken from the settings I play with, I didn't boost it to max.  I play the game on high settings (not highest).  I think the areas here look pretty nice.  I will admit, I have posted some screenshots from other areas though that aren't that spectacular.  Anyway, have a look...

That's one of my favorite areas too around that bridge; the floating islands, architecture of the shrines, river beneath the bridge, nearby sheer cliffs and all that. That part of Kojan is great all together for sightseeing.

One question, where are saved the screenshots in the hard disk?.

C:/Program Files/Sony/Vanguard/Screenshots

Graphics look pretty generic.

Yeah, I agree. I'd rather look like a block with different colored spiked hair like my Undead Rogue on WoW...

Awesome screens, brihtwulf. Thanks for this thread. Here's a new one from me on my rogue from the team pvp server. The next is my wawrrior from the RP server.

How do you get the screenshots without the UI ?

The river behind doens't look to good imo, not reflecttive. The shading imo is not really balanced and the scene just doesn't pop out. With a game like this it will be hard to really find something that pops imo because of the Big world syndrome. To much is left barren and untouched by the world editor. That maybe do to the housing theory, so maybe by next year the world will fill up. Next time , do fpv shots , cause the characters imo are detracting from the world .

You can play with the water appearance.  I usually like mine to not look very good for perf boost.



I think the graphics are impressive.  Truely amazing.

Yeah, that's not too good of a shot. My favorite place is Khan. When I get a chance , I'll post some SS of it. One of the most interesting things I found with rivers is when I jumped in one and realized I was moving downstream with the flow of the water.

No, you can't make the water reflective.  Vanguard doesn't have reflective water at all, not the way most modern MMOs do -  It reflects light, but doesn't show a mirror image style reflection, no matter what you put your graphics settings to.  So most water scenes looks like crap compared to just about every other MMO I've played in the past few years.

Or is it just that most of us don't have good enough graphics cards?

I unfortunately play the game on High Performance so it doesn't look as great as it could do.  These are two screens I quickly dug out to contribute to the thread.   They have the UI all over them for which I give my apologies.



Brihtwulf, the ones you opsted of Kojan look pretty amazing.  The ambience of that area is very cool.



Enjoy anyway:

There have been a million other occasions I've either forgotten or being too busy fighting to take a screen.  I must remember to get on it more often.

The big islansd bottom doesn't really do anyinthg for me but dread the lag going towards such a ridicuosly shiny and bumped map object. If you removed that whole floating island section and just had the mountains and trees , imo it would of had a better impact of realism.  It just looks fony  and out of place .

lol at this guys posts on this thread.

Somebody take some screens with fraps running so we can see what the framerate is like.  The screenies look good but I want to see what kind of framerate people are getting with those settings running on a 6800.
