      I appreciate that as always! That’s the plan. Starfield Creation video tomorrow (time permitting) but I do want to throw some Starfield content in that isn’t mod-related. I’ll pop back in on Skyrim and Fallout sometimes too. It’s kind of the channel DNA 😜

  • @ThePhoenixEffect

    Great video! I’ve noticed more games are adding a contrast option in the settings. I tried out Redfall for the first time yesterday, and I messed with the contrast and discovered what you showed in this video. It really helps on my Asus monitor because it gets rid of the washed out look. When brightness and contrast were both at zero, I didn’t even need to use my flashlight so it kind of ruined the atmosphere. I’ve been playing Starfield recently as well so when I get back to that I’m going to tweak the contrast there too! ✌️

    • @Matt_the_TechRanger
      @Matt_the_TechRanger  24 дні тому +2

      That's a good one - 60 to 90 contrast seems good on the displays I've tried. I think the setting can be a bit wonky because there's like a LUT/ENB on top of the game to begin with. Kind of like TreyM Film looks in Fallout 4 and its like you're adjusting Brightness/contrast based on that rather than the total, if that makes sense. Nerdy assumption so I'm just spit-ballin'

    • @Matt_the_TechRanger
      @Matt_the_TechRanger  6 днів тому

      The main difference you'd see is the lower 1080p resolution. However you may want to try using the Visuals mode (60FPS target) first if your display is the lower resolution already. It might run better for you. If it's still a bit frame-y outside of those main areas then you can go back to performance (60fps target).

    If you have a vrr capable display just leave it in visuals mode and set the fps target to 60. The frame rate difference is negligible and the lods, lighting and resolution are better.
