Title: Screencap Contest: August 2020
Post by: NeonShivan on August 07, 2020, 09:03:59 pm
The theme this month is free, go ham!

The rules are:

1: No HUD! (Jump nodes are ok though!)
2: Images must be presented as they would be as seen with only the FSO engine rendering the image. Remember that these entries help to show off what the engine can do for new players! So that means no after the fact photoshopping (except for cropping), and no external shader programs (reshade and the like). No lens flares, contrast shifts, colorizers, etc.
3: Max 3 entries per person!
4: Again, these screenshots are a way to promote Freespace and the FSO Engine - let's keep it in good taste.

Scoreboard:

Nyctaeus: 3
MatththeGeek: 2
Colt: 1

I'd love to jump on this but - feeling stupid - how are you guys shooting your screenshots without the HUD? What's the best way to be doing this?

So I want to start off by saying these were all really good screenshots. You bastards always have to make me work hard to pick a winner. This month's winner is MatthTheGeek with his spooky Ravana and doomed Deimos:

September's theme is Vasudan, show me some desert love!
