What's the difference between Default, Improved, and Paradise? | Forums

I see absolutely NO difference except for maybe a slightly adjusted brightness.

What the heck?

btw, which do you use?

They're just colour temperature profiles - similar to what you get with most monitors. Each option gives a slightly different colour palette, resulting in a "warm", "cold", bright, or cartoony appearance.

No great shakes, but some folks prefer the "cold" setting, claiming that it's more photo-reaslitic, which I agree with, the default one tends to be a little over-saturated.

but games are not supposed to be dull!!! i love bright colours! and if you have been to the islands you would know that it is very bright and colourful there. i personally dont notice any difference between default or improved or paradise, but cold just makes things look too dark. and cartoon is fun for about 10min

Well, in Paradise, apart from colour saturation, you have the large increase in the glare visual effect, which lends everything a healthy dream-like glow, a haze if you will, that looks like a photograph from a Thomas Cook ad. It looks like everything, including the landscape, has been eating Readybrek.

they're not color profiles at all they're rendering effects -

improve uses a sharpen filter, paradise turns the glare effect way up, cold is dimmer and has sort of a swimmy visual effect...

these won't work unless special effects is set to very high.

Yep, you're right, I hadn't noticed 'til I really looked...

I love it when people come in, and tell the philosophers the facts of the matter

I fail to see any Philosophy here, much less any to be laughed at.
