I think one of the biggest things that has helped me to get this where I want it was Calibrating My Monitor.
On this site some place, and I can't find it now of course.. lol
Is a guide to doing that, it really has made a difference in defining what is supposed to be lighted and what is in shadow.
I don't know if any of you remember Bob Ross the Artist, best known as the creator and host of The Joy of Painting.
But what he used to do sometimes is paint on a completely black canvas on some of his shows.
What it does is allow for real darkness to be the starting point as a fade to what ever light or color is being applied.
So calibrating your monitor does the same thing, it gives the game a black background to paint against, and that makes everything crisper and more defined.
Combine that with Tundra ENB and ELFX and COT and a few other things , I end up with this, until I break it tinkering with it.. lol
