NVidia Ansel Photography Contest Super Resolution Version: http://images.nvidia.com/ansel/SuperResolution/ARK-SuperResolution1/ARK__Survival_Evolved_HighRes_2016_09_01_-_14_38_36_55.html ARK: Survival Evolved and the Scorched Earth Expansion Pack now include support for NVIDIA Ansel -- a revolutionary new way to capture in-game shots. Compose shots from any position, adjust with post-process filters, capture HDR images in high-fidelity formats, and share the screenshots in 360 via a smartphone, PC or VR headset. Learn more about these features from the NVIDIA blog. Now let’s get to the contest! There were 3 potential categories for survivors to enter their shots into and they were the following: Four Categories *NEW* Freestyle: These can be images or videos taken using NVIDIA's new Freestyle filters! If videos are submitted, they must have a maximum duration of one minute. For the time being, the current prize is double our normal amount, so winners will receive 200$ and runner-ups will receive 100$. Super Resolution: These should be taken at 8x Super Resolution. Players can optionally use Depth of Field effects accessible in Spectator mode by pressing the [Delete] key. Panoramic 360 Stereoscopic 3D: These should be taken at 4x Super Resolution, in 360 Stereoscopic 3D mode. We will crop them to 2D for web display, while also providing the 3D version for viewing within VR display. Freeform: Any settings, whacky and creative use of Ansel filters are encouraged.

SpartanV327 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Will there be a version of ragnarok that has an abberant biome? I want to be able to wingsuit through the sky, then launch flaming arrows at things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GurpGorp Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Maybe this community crunch is so empty because they have something big in the works and might possibly be featured in next weeks crunch? I hope. I just can't wait till we get S+ on vanilla! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinchofginger Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Quick question - I bought ARK for my Xbox one originally. If I buy the season pass now as a humble bundle, will it work with "Play anywhere" on windows 10? It says the humble bundle is via Steam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
