Return of Reckoning in glorious 4k: Stunning sights

A PCGMR presentation thread to showcase the game running at 3840x2160p, together with Sildur's enhanced graphics ( SweetFX + ENBSeries ).

- http://www.returnofreckoning.com/forum/ ... ?f=20&t=13 profiles and settings.
- Using 4x Downsampling on an Nvidia GTX 970 + 2x Supersampling.

The game runs on my overclocked GTX 970 at 50-55 FPS and capped at 60 if I turn Supersampling off, but it looks gorgeous in motion and it does not have one jaggy edge and little to non-existant texture flickering.

The only problem I am encountering are the White NPCs, but in my opinion the tradeoff is worth going for by having proper lightning and shadowing.

Here is the album: http://imgur.com/a/osIfj

I ask people that have been playing the game more than me to give me areas/coordinates where lovely pics can be taken, ex: Nice scenery, area, landscape, etc. Also, is it better with no names at all?

Looks gorgeous, Raelion! :)

But you can fix the white NPCs:
Important
Make sure to turn off the lightmap in the ingame graphic settings otherwise your npcs will be completly white! Make sure to restart your game after that!

Not worth it in my opinion because of the removal of shadows, light spheres and highlights.

I'd rather have beings of pure light and my working shadows :D

Here is a comparison:

So you think it's more realistic with having your character name shown, titles and guild name instead of having them removed? ;)

That's why I asked in my initial post :). I fixed it and all the images that I'll take won't have it shown. Opinions on pics? Any cool areas? I'll be looking into increasing the maximul view distance and other parameters of the game if possible.

Dark Elves starting position, seeing the black huge spine fortress behind and black ships at coast line would be cool!
