Little info about the new update file (Default Settings Changer)... It basically just sets the default values for DOF, Aperture, and (the default camera position's) FOV so that when you cycle through my presets they're all nice and crisp with a decent DOF effect (not too strong, but also not much glow on the edges of V's body)... Also tweaks contrast and highlights so you can get crazy shots like the first image (with the right lighting... And no, there's no RT or PT used in these shots, as I only have an RX 480 GPU)...
Though it definitely works a lot better with this than in vanilla, I suggest to disable auto focus for DOF... Some poses may look ever so slightly better with auto, though, so maybe try both if you really want that perfect shot or whatever...lol
And no, you do not need the camera preset files to use this update file... It's basically it's own mod... It does require "Photo Mode Unlocker" to use all of my edited values, though...
This mod is great - would there be any way to have photomode default to first-person camera upon activation? Or even just a simulation of first-person perspective? Thank you for your work!
Should be possible, yeah... At least to make the default preset "simulate" first person, as u/jaketheartist suggested... I'm gonna dig in files and see if I can find a way to really make first person default, but if not, I'll throw together a default preset for it as a separate file... Will probably be sometime tomorrow unless I happen to find a super simple way of forcing it...
Edit: Well, maybe... I couldn't find a quick and simple way, so tried making the a fake first person with the default preset... The game won't allow it... No matter what values you put in, the camera will always face toward the player... I was figuring I'd be able to put a negative distance value to move it forward in front of the character's face, but it doesn't work like that... It just swaps to the opposite side of the player and all of the other values are effectively reversed (still faces the player, just from the opposite direction)... Tried then flipping the yaw/pitch values, but that literally results in the same thing happening...
I'll keep looking for a way to actually force it to first person (digging through CET docs atm for anything relevant), though, but no promises...lol
Do you know if there is a way to unlock the photo mod camera for things like when you are in vehicles, sitting in a chair or in the shower? It forces the first person perspective camera and disables the drone option.
I believe there is, actually... Using TweakXL/REDmod tweakDB edits... I'll look into it and see if I can find the values that restrict it again.. I know I saw them somewhere at some point...lol
Hi, I reinstalled everything atelier store, arcive xl, codeware, etc...everything works fine, 1.63 hotfixTHANKS I just have the photo mod that does not work: no more photos in the folder in documents do you need an update of Photo Mode Unlocker 1.6 XL for example? do you know of a similar case?
Hi there. I'm not sure if you take request but, Is it possible for you to make a newer version of the Stand Still Please mod, for Character creator mode?. I cant get it to work no matter what I do.
Hmm, that's odd... I use that mod and it works fine for me (almost too good as V won't open her mouth with it to see the teeth selections)...
Make sure there's nothing that would conflict loading before it... I'd just rename that mod's .archive file and add a bunch of pound signs/hashtags at the front (if you're manually installing... I believe with Vortex you can just move it up the load order without renaming)...
I manually install everything along with it's required mod/framework it needs to work. I didn't think of editing the load order but I'll give it a try. Does it have to be specifically hashtags or zeros or it doesnt matter?.
Good morning,I find your mod very nice with the different cropping.but I have a problem with the photo mod which gives me broken files since the last small updateI don't know where to post but maybe someone can help methank you for any response
Do you mean since the last game update or this mod's update? If you mean since the last game update, do you have Path Tracing enabled for photo mode, by chance? I know it causes issues like that for some people...
These will be added sliders in Photomode in the game? Thanks.
They'll be preset camera angles in the main tab when you open photo mode... There's already 9 by default and this (the main files) adds in 9 more while keeping the original 9 intact... The optional file will replace the original 9 so that people can install both versions if they want to...
Edit: The optional file isn't compatible with Beethy's "Portrait Enhancer" mod, though, so people will have to choose between those, sadly... I could've added more slots, but 18 is already quite a bit to go through :/
I get what you were going for (and they're really good), but I don't edit pics, I just take them... I don't wanna open it in gimp or something to rotate it...lol
Edit: Also, thanks for not allowing me to edit your file so I could find a nifty workaround instead... Not sarcasm, btw :)
lol... I get that... These aren't meant to look amazing, though... Just to get good comparison shots... And some of them are actually pretty nice with some poses...
