Color Correction In Screenies

Postby LVA157 » Sun Jan 22, 2006 4:01 pm

hi, ive been wondering how i can take screenies with different color correction on my GPU. i can change the correction to what i want but it just dosent show in my shots. Heres what i mean and as you can see its not showing any difference in color in my shot even though it looks alot brighter on my screen ???

Download this it will GREATLY enhance your weather and it's soooo easy to install.

Vista Australis is a large scale scenery project (freeware) that encompasses the entire continent of Australia. When completed, this will allow Australian flight simmers (or anyone wanting virtually visit Australia) to have a more realistic view. The weather works for the whole world too.

Just register with avsim.com (free)and get it!! You will not regret it take a look at some of my posts.

The only problem is, that then gives your desktop weird colours aswell. If you look at ramsa329's shots, they have a lovely red tint to them, but that would look awful when not in-game.

yeh that was the red tint i was going for, also ive found you can do the same color changing on irfanview, but i think that might be editing ::)

Obviously using those settings will change the look of your desktop also.

That is why you have the ability to set up profiles which you can than delete or save.

I keep a notebook full of notations for my profiles when I get what I want I set a profile than write it down.

Also it would be wrong for anyone to think that the red in my shots is a result of card settings

I use different combinations of textures for sunset and sunrise.

When doing payware shots I use Flight Environment and when I do freeware shots I keep seperate folders of different freeware textures (environmental envelopes) that I move in and out of the sim.

Hope that helps
