También quería preguntarte qué GShade o ReShade utilizas. 😅

Y, si puedes, ¿me darías algún consejo para hacer mejores fotos con GShade? Lo tengo desde hace bastante tiempo, pero normalmente solo descargo presets de otras personas porque no suelo tocar las opciones ni sé muy bien cómo configurarlo.

Gracias por las molestias 😊

Hii! I used a translator, so sorry if I misinterpreted anything!

¿Cómo haces para que tus fotos se vean tan bien? (How do you make your photos look so good?)

To make my screenshots better quality, I use SRWE at 6000 x 5000 or 5000 x 5000 resolution. Technically, you don’t have to go that high. I used to use 3200 x 2400, which was good enough, and I don’t think you’d notice much of a difference in quality. But I prefer to get the best quality my PC can handle, just in case.

Side note: When using SRWE, the higher the resolution, the larger the file size of your screenshots, especially if you’re using Reshade/Gshade. This can be an issue if you’re posting your screenshots on Tumblr unless you edit your stuff like me, so aim for the best quality while staying within a certain limit(?) 3200 x 2400 should work, and for me, it usually results in smaller file sizes.

Also, if your PC or laptop isn't particularly powerful, SRWE can cause The Sims to crash. So definitely something to watch out for. Try lower resolutions first and see how you like them before going to higher ones.

¿Y cómo consigues ese efecto de luces en las fotos? (And how do you get that light effect in photos?)

I use Relight and Ultimate Relight!

I use Basic Relight to add warmth and brighten my Sims' models, and Ultimate Relight to add a light rim. You can download Ultimate Relight on Dollhouse Mafia on Telegram.

It's kinda tedious to figure out, but once you get it in the right position, Ultimate Relight looks really nice for adding a little additional dimension.

También quería preguntarte qué GShade o ReShade utilizas. (I also wanted to ask you which GShade or ReShade you use.)

Current main Reshade: Wonderland Reshade by Youngcozyboy

Here's the Gshade version of Wonderland for you.

Past Reshade: Sugardust by MaPu.

I still use Sugardust occasionally, but Wonderland looks sharper and keeps the Sims’ colors more accurate.

I’ve also tweaked the settings a bit and added duplicates of some shaders. For instance, when I use Wonderland, I have two vibrance shaders enabled and nearly every MXAO setting turned on, so it might not look the same for you. Still, the base Wonderland preset is beautiful on its own.

Y, si puedes, ¿me darías algún consejo para hacer mejores fotos con GShade? (And, if you can, would you give me any tips for taking better photos with GShade?)

Just a combination of my previous advice.

Download SRWE and increase the resolution for higher-quality screenshots.

Use Relight. The main color I use is white at 450 or 500 brightness in a dark room; the secondary color I usually use is an orange or red to make the Sims look more vibrant.

Use Ultimate Relight for a cool light rim.

Experiment with your Reshade / Gshade settings. For example, I personally find that more MXAO settings make the Sims look more... dimensional? Idk, but it looks good! I think I have 4 or 5 MXAO settings activated when I take pictures. I also love the vibrance, colorfulness, and clarity settings because they make the Sims look juicier. SMAA and FXAA should also always be activated since you can't use edge smoothing with Reshade/Gshade.

I can't really think of anything elseee.... It's really just a matter of testing out different things until you find something that works for you, but I hope this was helpful!
