  1. Thanks a lot! Being a photographer IRL helps a lot, both when choosing a framing or sometimes for editing the image That last one was very heavily edited, here is the original screenshot I worked on. Also when framing I took my time. It took a while getting on that rock below Trappers to get a better perspective!
  2. A heavily edited, in a creative way, screenshot of Trappers
  3. Bleak Inlet Twilight Pano I found out that the bigger the FOV, the more vignette you get (which happens IRL as an undesired effect sometimes). It seems they added it on purpose. This doesn't help stitching panos, but since there is no way to put your "camera" in vertical, I will still have to deal with this, and just take more shots with overlapping areas.
  4. I thought I had already replied to this, but the message isn't here... Great job with the flares! The Lighthouse is a great location, but doesn't have easy framing. I specially like the framing on the second one!
  5. Thank yo u! Here is another one of the aurora bases series, the PV Farmstead. I wasn't using added lightning then, so I will probably repeat this one.
  6. Thanks! Here is another take on Camp Office, combining flare and lantern. I want to experiment with flashlight next
  7. Thanks! Currently experimenting with lightning techniques, using storm lantern this time, waiting for the moon to rise, and move around to look for the perfect framing
  8. Good idea! I'm already doing it mate. I used to play at 75 FOV or so, and went into display settings to change it to 100 whenever I wanted to take a screenshot. Now I just ended up playing at 100 all the time, it's a little trickier to aim, and some people may experience motion sickness, but I got used to it. The thing is, as with a real camera (I'm a landscape photographer myself), the wider the lens, the more barrel effect you get, making stitching harder. Panoramas such as that last one are easier (as IRL) because there is almost no foreground. When there are close by objects though, the change in the perspective might make stitching those shots together nearly impossible (happens IRL too).
  9. Here you go a teaser of my ongoing project: Player Bases during Aurora.
  10. i used Lightroom, but then I had to use photoshop on this one to do a little tweaking and fill the gaps since the shots weren't very well aligned on the vertical axis. Here is another pano of Ash Canyon I did.
  11. Hi! Lately I've been stiching some screenshots together to make some great panoramas (I'm a photographer IRL). I thought I'd share one of them see if you like them. Never seen Forlong Muskeg look so beautiful. Hope you like it!
  12. Thanks a lot, I will do that. My bad, I just checked again and I did have the note in my inventory. The strange thing is, if I examine it, nothing happens, unlike with others that I get a notification and marker on map. Also, when checking that sidequest, it doesn't show, neither as complete or incomplete. I will do what you suggest, and try and see if the cache spawned anyway. From what I read in the forums, back when they launched episode two (this save might be that old) many people had the issue of this entire sidequest not showing on journal, but being completed and awarding the achievement anyway. I hope that is the case
  13. I just continued playing an old save from wintermute episode two, and since I left it almost finished, I was doing the side missions. I just completed the forest talkers, but when doing the mistery lake supply cache side quest, everything was going fine until I tried looking for the illegible note that is supposed to be on the lookout (Mistery Lake, right?) There is simply nothing there. I checked my inventory notes to see if I might have picked it up in a previous visit but is not there either, and I haven't read it since it's not showing on my sidequest journal along with other caches. I gues this is a bug? Any way out? I already have Alan's, clearcut's, forlong muskegs...
