Typhoon eye candy, mmm.
« on: November 02, 2009, 04:37:58 PM »
Does anyone remember the good old "AH2 has a great flight model but the graphics suck." line? :lol

Special thanks to Waffle for the beautiful 3D model and Jacko for the beautiful skin.

Did some blur effect on this one.


A couple more angles, look at that view!

Currently still using my 8800GTX, I'm able to run AH2 pretty much cranked at 1600x1080 and achive 70+ average FPS. (Shadow textures are 4000, can't run them smooth without frame rate plummeting )

Thanks for the support guys. :aok

Good stuff, Kazaa.  :aok You gotta show me how you enhance those photos of yours!  :D

I use Paint Shop Pro X2, for the top picture I did as follows:

Raised the RGB values by 15.
Applied "Vivid Filter".
10% "Cross Process".
Used the magic wand to highlight the background and applied 9% blur. I was going to do the same for the other two but the process takes forever!

All in all I didn't want to go to crazy, I just wanted to show off the plane/ground/water textures but make the colours a little more vibrant.
