Cameras & SS..?? | Forums

[nohunt1]

Looking through several months' worth of SS "competitions", I've seen many outstanding shots: underwater, closeups, and generally views that I can't seem to do. I've tried every which way to try to come up with something like these SS's, but to no avail. Is there a mod that I need to be able to do something other than the standard SS..??

This is particularly important now that the July SS competition is looming closer everyday, and I want one of those fabulous prizes..!!

The main thing is to load an enviroment mod. Both TMO and RFB have one included. There are also some smaller mods that help...sub skins add a little realism.

Usually you'll get your best SS's at dusk and dawn, that's what I prefer.

At night, work with light to your favor, moon, flares, gun blast, ect.


Another trick that helps is when you have a good setup is to pause the game. That way you can adjust and take the perfect shot. This works great for planes as you can pause over and over until you get the perfect shot.

To me the pause key is the key to taking good SS's.

Obvious it helps to push the graphic settings to the limit. My system is fair at best and I get some good shots.

If you are running TMO, do you have the external cam enabled?
