Pictures of your games...

[Hell Kitty]

I think NWN2 looks quite fab. This is where I am currently:

 

 

[Sand]

It may not be as pretty as Oblivion or Dark Messiah but the game has more substance than all the current so called CRPGs out on the PC. The graphics are good enough for me and you need more than just pretty pictures to make a good CRPG.

[Wistrik]

Obs should tweak the lips to close tighter, so teeth don't show through. Also looks like most of the polys are dedicated to the face, since other body features tend to look blocky in comparison.

[Dark_Raven]

Oppsy! Better make sure the witness keeps his mouth shut.

What the heck? Oblivion was fuggin' ugly. People were ugly, cities were generic and uninspiring, and environments were decent, but Gothic 3 did that way better with similar oomph.

 

On the other hand, this gets me 7fps:

[Calax]

Dark Crusade! Again!

[Bokishi]

Stalker Midget!

 

[Dark_Raven]

I am Death come for thee. Surrender, and thy passage shall be ...quicker.

[Sand]

I like that one, Dark Raven.

[angshuman]

Dude, that's pretty friggin ugly. I'm not talking about the "beauty" of the character, I'm talking about the fidelity of the graphics. It looks like something straight out of an undergrad Computer Graphics course project. It looks to have all of the latest graphical "checkboxes" marked up, but it's crude, glitchy, un-refined, and from whatever feedback players have given about rendering speed, slow and seriously un-optimized.

[Wistrik]

I like that one, Dark Raven. 

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

It's okay. The sleeves look funny, and the inner shading should be black, not gray. If that was the case, the snapshot would be more intimidating.

 

Haircuts? Manicures? Anyone??

[Sand]

angshuman, I don't consider 30 to 40 FPS slow.

The only problem I see with Neverwinter Nights 2's graphics is that it looks a bit like Lego. Sure, the pieces fit snugly into place, but you can still see it's made out of blocks. I'm not sure what it is that ruins the overall impression, but it really feels like a patchwork of graphics instead of a cohesive world.

 

The worst part about it are the roads. They look like they were painted onto the ground.

 

Still, I'm not complaining so far. I've only moved around in the first village, but it's not near as bad as some people on these boards have claimed. So far.

[Xard]

Spell effects are cool, especially new "summoning familiar" is much better than it was in NWN1. Meh, all of them are.

Well, it is NWN. NWN2, like NWN1 is tile based, at least with the interiors. Also the reason why the road looks painted on is because it is.

My own experiences have not been slow and glitchy. In fact it's pretty smooth. The only settings I need to turn off are the two water effects.

 

I really like the world graphics, but the characters are merely adequate. I don't find think they're beautiful, but they certainly aren't ugly, and to call them "crude" is ridiculous.

[Volourn]

"graphics is that it looks a bit like Lego. Sure, the pieces fit snugly into place, but you can still see it's made out of blocks."

 

Like Sand said, it's NWN2. It uses the same absed engine. I'm sure the graphics engine itself while totally 'new' is based off ther Aurora hence the same kind of look depsite NWN2 looking much better (as it should). Why people are surprised by this, I don't know.

 

 

"Spell effects are cool, especially new "summoning familiar" is much better than it was in NWN1. Meh, all of them are."

 

I dunno. While NWN2's spell effects are much flashier many of them I wouldn't term them 'better' than NWN1's. NWN1 had and still has awesome spell effects.

I wish my NWN2 looked this good.

Would be nice if you could adjust your clothes clolor. Also for some reason red is absent when it comes to hair color otherwise I would have red highlights in her hair.

Thanks for reminding me to stick it out as evil this time through :">

 

Some of your screen shots are really washed out, how high do you have the gamma set? Oh definitely look into some gui changes too.

[Pidesco]

This was a pretty impressive battle, graphically speaking. With the rain, the lightning flashes, the smoke, and the long shadows duking it out Errol Flynn style. Unfortunately, screenshots don't really show all the awesomeness.

[Tigranes]

Ooh, purty. So that's what it looks like with lighting and shadows.

 

Pidesco, you've got the golem?! I could never work out how to finish the guy. How many parts do you need to get? I think in my first walkthrough I only got one. In my second I've just rescued Shandra so I've seen the golem, didn't actually take him back so I assume he'll prop up in the stronghold.

 

 

What happens when you hide GUI and zoom in; really purty.

 

And finally, just for Volo:

I'm not actually sure about what parts you need for the

construct, and where they are, I just picked them as I went. However, I don't remember getting the liquid stuff Grobnar talks about, anywhere but suddenly the golem was done. The guy is ridiculously powerful, by the way.

 

 

 

 

Required picture of NWN2:

[Xard]

NWN1 had and still has awesome spell effects.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

 

True that. Both has great spell effects, NWN2 just has better IMO (expect for some odd reason web causes me terrible lag. Quite funny). I especially liked NWN1's Time Stop.

Wow, what kind of computer you have? Did that lag much?

 

Cool pics
