Even with official photo modes seeing improvements, Frans' camera tools make it easier to do exactly what you want and capture a great composition.

This is a cool thread showing the process of this shot, which includes our RTGI shader for that little touch of extra realism.

A shot I took in Until Dawn PC using my Universal Unreal Engine Unlocker (UUU) tool, combined with @martysmods.bsky.social's RTGI and our IGCSDOF accumulation buffer based depth of field. Let's see what it takes to get here. 🧵 1/n

This is a great composition resource by Mik from @thefourthfocus.com

Once you've got your ghoul-tastic 👻 shot lined up, you can perfect the horror mood with a little help from #ReShade

I think our PTVL fog shader and ReLight would add a lot of atmosphere to your #spooktober screenshots! 🎃

Mik | TheFourthFocus @thefourthfocus.com · 5d

Thinking of taking some horror-themed shots this season?
I recently wrote a piece for Epic Games about how to do exactly that, check it out...

Feeling impatient waiting for Ghost of Yōtei on PC? There's still plenty of gorgeous Japanese visuals to feast your eyes on, like this screenshot from Assassin's Creed Shadows, transformed with ReLight, ReGrade+ & PTVL fog ✨

Before/after in the post below 👇

#VirtualPhotography #ReShade #MartysMods

A screenshot from Assassin's Creed Shadows showing Yatsuke impaling a warrior with his sword on a desolate battlefield. There is thick fog in the background, illuminated with a gentle glow. Warm orange light falls on Yatsuke from the left, while the overall colour theme is a vintage green tone.

Here's a side-by-side comparison of the shot above. What a transformation! ✨

A side-by-side comparison of the screenshot in the previous post. On the left is half of the picture in its original form, with darker, more gloomy, blue-toned colours. On the right the scene is brighter, with more natural colours, which retaining the feeling of being in a fairy tale.

It's one of those shaders that punches above its weight.

It may or may not be getting a bit of an update in the future too 😉
