It would’ve looked good had everything not been so over saturated. When you’re toning up saturation you wanna make very tiny jumps otherwise it looks like and instagram post.
Yeah this just didnt sit right with me either. I'm fine with the remastered version being a more saturated world because they went in and completely transformed the world to look that way and give the original a little more vibrancy. Artificial saturation boosts are risky and need to be used sparingly. It's like throwing on the vivid setting on TVs

Not per object motion blur. It enhances the experience. Also the reason why motion blur in consoles games are ugly is because you need higher samples and higher framerates to make it look good.

The good Halo CE mod community, those were the days i spent all my free time after school in the forums looking those incredible H3 Maps, and the assets in WIP. just to download them in that sweet super compressed zip/rar.
It technically could. Since MCC will support Windows 7, it might be using DX11. But if they go a different route and decide to use that weird version of DX12 that runs on both Windows 7 and 10, we are screwed.
@@martinkosecky4943 I think they a bringing Direct X 12 to Windows 7 so they'll probably use that. Although there is a chance the game is actually DirectX 9 as that was what the originals were. (DX12 is more likely) We'll find out when the Reach beta happens
I am not sure but I think MCC was built before DX12 was a thing, I am not sure converting from what ever native version MCC has to 12 would be worth it to 343i or Xbox. So I personally feel it will be working for Reach and most likely all the MCC titles.
All of this looked amazing! My jaw hit the floor as soon as you busted up the saturation! Dude, please make a walk through of you playing CE or SPV3 with all these effects! I'd watch the whole thing g atleast twice!
Hey LNG, could you post your reshade settings so we can try it out? I've had reshade in Halo Custom Edition for awhile now,it looks ok using someone's preset but i like your settings a lot.
I don't know why but I really like being able to see my Spartans shoulders while playing, it makes me feel really cool for some reason. I now always turn my FOV to max when paying any halo games to try and see my players shoulders all the time. In games which have big shoulders I use those to try and maximize my chances of seeing my Spartans shoulders. It never usually works but occasionally I come across a gun which has certain animations that show my shoulders. (In halo 2 anniversary I think the magnum, needler and the assault rifle show shoulders when I jump) I think the reason I like it is that it adds to the whole spartan character because the oversized bulky shoulders are in the corner of my eye letting me know that they are protecting me, making me feel like a huge invincible tank which is what a spartan is.
Did you ever hear the tragedy of LateNightGaming the PC nerd? I thought not. It's not a story the console pleb would tell you. Darth LateNight was a dark lord of PC mods, so powerful and so wise, he could use his mods to influence an 18 year old game to come back to life. He became so powerful, the only thing he was afraid of losing was of course his power. Unfortunately he taught his subscribers everything he knew, then they completely botched Combat Evolved with graphical mods in his sleep.
My favourite way to use ReShade for Halo:CE's vanilla graphics (and other older games like Vice City) is using the CRT filter set to simulate standard def TV resolution & fake HDR to make the dark levels more shadowy & atmospheric, making that flashlight more necessary. The graphics are better suited to standard definition IMO, where the texture resolution isn't obviously low, and the detail textures are now back to being mindblowing like they were back in the day. One of the blessings in disguise of CRT standard definition is how your brain filled in the gaps of the limited detail rather than having those rough edges in stark relief of high resolution.
having built a full size Halo AR and played with is extensively, changing the positioning of the guns you did made the gun positioning look a lot better. It actually looks like the chief is shouldering the gun rather than holding it against his bicep
The War Film one reminds me of a game call Heroes & Generals (a multiplayer WW2 free to play game) Which makes sense for that setting, I never realized until this video how much detail game devs must go through just with color, bloom, etc. just to convey emotion
I really hope we can see that beautiful colorful star filled sky in Halo Infinite. I’ve noticed over the years that Halo’s horizon has reduced its multiple shades of colors down to a simple few. CE did great with how Halo rises with its blues, greens and pinks. I want to do this little technique you did with modding some of the graphics and make things pop out just a little more. Again, CE is a beautiful game to this day.
The only thing that I did not like was the colorful option. As a photographer and video editor, the one thing that I always try to avoid is oversaturation. If you are able to, try to use a slider in that option to bring it down a bit but still leave some saturation to keep that vibrancy. But besides all that, it looks incredible. I can't imagine the possibilities with reshade on the MCC when it comes out. Imagine Reach with it. Oh boy, oh boy.
I know I’ve been asking you this for a while, but will someone please tell me how LNG did this at 3:40? Edit: Ok I found out it was Opensauce, didn’t work at first since I was original using HAC
How exactly in reshade are you changing weapon view models? Like I've seen the sliders and stuff but I don't know what exactly you're doing to use this feature of reshade. Any help would be great, I don't see much about it specifically online.
So its not actually reshade! Its a tool called "Open Sauce" that works for the Gearbox port of Halo CE! It allows you to adjust the FOV, framerate, graphics, etc etc and of course, view models
Honestly, blurring the background like that creates a "miniature" effect like you would in a tilt shift lens. A more realistic DOF in this case would be to blur objects closest to the camera, like the back half of the weapons. And also during sniper zoom moments where the area of focus becomes paper thin.
Have you heard of Project Cartographer? (I probably spelt that wrong) but it's a download of Halo 2 on PC after it wasn't being sold on Vista and is supposed to be for the Multiplayer, but includes the campaign as well and it's completely free
Omg finally we get the halo ce remaster we have been eating for for over 20 years! We appreciate you doing what no one ABSOLUTELY NOT A SINGLE PERSON…. Has ever done before. Truly a legend keep up the work 😍😍
When i was a kid some of the missions scared me in the second mission. When you get out of the escape pod the music spooked me so much i could get past a certain part so i just played the first mission over and over
I don't like th term 'improvement', I've always been annoyed by people saying that adding HD textures and models improves it, but I personally disagree. I also hate how people judge a game by it's graphics level rather than it's artstyle in some cases.

I guess you can say that the game has _Evolved_
Make sure you enable anisotropic filtering for Halo on your graphics card's control panel. Makes the textures look much sharper.
That wouldn't make a difference anyways because this guy blurred out everything that's 5 or more meters in front of him.
