Viera Changes

[Audson]

Are these settings in the Nvidia control panel under the 3D area? I've been scared to play with those. Do you have any recommendations?

I use the NVIDIA App with the overlay and game filters enabled. A nice feature about the NVIDIA App is that you don't need to sign in.

Here are the filters I use (the order in the list does matter).

Color:
Tint Color 41 %
Tint Intensity 8%
Temperature 2
Vibrance 24

Sharpen:
Sharpen 30%
Ignore Film Grain 30%

Brightness / Contrast:
Exposure -20%
Contrast 20%
Highlights 100%
Shadows 34%
Gamma 34%

Details:
Sharpen 0%
Clarity 70%
HDR Toning 60%
Bloom 10%

A second part of my setup is that I use DSR.

And lastly, I have the game gamma correction set to zero and character lighting at 40.

I'm extremely conflicted with these changes to my viera. My darker skinned character here has had her bunny nose entirely removed, not to mention the big difference in eye colour? Her nose and face look blurry, and the new lipstick looks god awful. I wonder how they managed to mess things up this badly. I have been incredibly happy with my viera design for years now, and to have her face changed to something worse feels heartbreaking to me. She looks lifeless and like she's constantly frowning. I kinda understand why because look at those flat and dimensionless lips??



I am truly saddened to see my bunny nose removed like this, it's one of my favourite features of viera aside from the ears. We seriously got so shafted...

I feel the same sadly, as a face 3 too
can't get over the nose/lips

They really ruined some of Face 3 most notable features. I hope they listen to us and fix whatever they did to the lips, eyes and nose. I want face 3 nose back!

I was able to hide the mouth by useing lighter lip colour..
However the biggest issue for me is the eyebrows!!
They're grey and i can barely see them!!!.

The skin:
Lost much details and looks more unrealistic than before.. lost depth and contrast

My big problem is that blonde hair makes blonde eyebrows and they are barely visible on light skin tones. This isn't new, but the graphical updates make it look even worse.




Solution: Please add the ability to set eyebrow colour seperately!

I want the old lips back not this smudge.

I miss the way her eyes sparkle (the new gleam has less shine and is less unique), the depth and life it gave her eyes (images from Endwalker benchmark):




This is the same saved character model loaded into the different benchmarks and it's like she's a completely different person.

EW benchmark (aethereal background):


DT benchmark (aethereal background):


In the updated graphics, she looks to have a more rounded face. The nose looks great, but there's not much else I like about the changes to her.

I feel like her eyelashes are clumpy and weird, and her eyes got much darker and appear less open.
EW benchmark:


DT benchmark:


Not to mention her lips! They are adorable, shiny and plump with the current graphics, but as of 7.0 they will look flat, with the corners of the mouth being uneven, and the lips being separated by a very, very straight line. ;_;

DT benchmark:


This is not OK. Fem Viera cannot and should not be left in this state. I understand that the dev team have been working so hard to make this graphical update a reality, but I beg of you, please do not change female Viera into this.

Face 2 also got hit with this. I generally use both face 1 & 2, depending on mood, but the mouth change has probably killed off face 2 for me. It's really bad looking now.

e. I ran my face 2 through the benchmark, and it didn't look AS bad as the side-by-side comparison in the creator. The creator made her look ROUGH. As a whole though, all of my characters looked worse to me with the new settings. Colors are way muted, there's no shine on their lips, facial features seem to have changed shape, jaws blend into their necks, lalas lost their noses, and mooore. I'm a wee bit nervous. lol.

Gonna have to play around a lot in-game once the expansion hits to see how they look in the actual world.
