Hey! Hope you're having a lovely day! I was wondering if you could share how you take your in-game pictures? (or maybe if you have some tips on how to...) They always look really good!
Hey! Thank you! Hope you too :3
I think I could share some basis 🤔
1) Ultra settings only!
2) SRWE – is your best friend if you want to take high quality screenshots. Without it in-game screenshots are pretty blurry on the distance 😔
Here is the YouTube tutorial.
3) HQ mod? You don’t actually need it, SRWE and ultra settings are enough (especially for maxis match and maxis mix style).
4) You totally need to check out better in-game lighting mod by northernsiberiawinds! It’s really awesome! Escpecially for outdoor screenshots 🌻
5) ReShade and GShade are your friends too! I regret I ignored it before 😅 For now I'm using GShade.
Here is the YouTube tutorial.
6) For making outdoors screenshots I normally put my sims in the shadow areas. The lighting there is less bright and more smooth. I add shadows in the scene by just putting random tree with tool by tmex.
7) For in-door screenshots I highly recommend to use the achino lamps (only recently discovered that they are free now). They also make lighting much smoother and cooler.
srwe + ghade + achino lamps (click picture for better quality)
no srwe + no gshade / srwe + gshade (click pictures to feel the difference)
8) And don't hesitate to use diffents shadows, reflections for your sims to avoid adding them in photoshop or any editing program you use.

Hope it helps 🤗
