Share Your Screenshots, Tips, and Tricks

> Not bad at all. I liked the first pic best of the 3. I would have had the MK VI positioned back a bit farther, but all in all nice job :wink:

Looking at the first pic again, yeah, I should have had the Mark VI a little further back ha ha. Oh well.

And thanks!

Went on another screenshot hunt recently. Haven’t finished the film, but I did manage this one shot before my dad kicked me off.

These are some recent ones I quite like

@PerceusSOZ, great vehicle shot! I like the mid jump and the way the tires are positioned with the action coming from the passenger seat.
@dakka02, Prometheus is my favorite of the 2. I really like the crisp lines.

Thanks for sharing. allowed me to get my screenshot fix for the day :slight_smile:

@Z6NITRO
Thanks, I really need to upload Prometheus to my file share. :stuck_out_tongue:

Been a while since I posted here so I’m back again! First of all, as ever I wish much congratulations on those who got their Screenies featured in the Bulletin yesterday, a bit saddened mine didn’t make the cut, but this week’s theme has got me back at the Screenshot making grindstone with gusto!

With it being the theme of Prefect armour this week, I decided to bring up some Prefect shots I made last week, utilising the Grifball gametype on Haven, with the Juicy, Olde Timey and Color Blind, somehow they seemed to go together very well, with the Colorblind just edging off some of the vibrancy of the Juicy FX so it didn’t look too out of place. Thus I provide:

  • The Force (couldn’t think of a better name for this pose, now where’s my copy of Duel of the Fates…)

  • Vermillion Grif (originally, this was taken with the slightly red screen effect you get when you utilise the Olde Timey FX, but it didn’t come through on the Screenshot sadly, still very happy with it thanks to the Background etc.)

  • Ball Torch II (If there’s one thing Juicy FX does well, it’s adding extra darkness and shadows to certain parts of a map. Haven’s brilliant for this in the corners near the new spawn points for Blue Team (I think, might be Red). The Griofball’s glow really adds something to it in my humble opinion.)

+++++

And that’s that for now on the Prefect Screenie front! I’ll hopefully have some new Prefect related Screenshots for you to look at and judge soon.

I have got a couple of tips that some of you may know already, but I’d like to share in case anyone does not for when they are using the Prefect armour in your Screenshots:

  • Bright Visors are your best friend! The inset nature of the Prefect visor means it already gets some great shadowing so visors like Pioneer, Verdant, Solar and Stalker are ideal for Screenshots if you want the visor to stick out. The altering colours of Pathfinder, Sunspot and Cyan are also a good choice if you want to add a teensy bit more pizazz to your Screenie. Visors like Blindside and Midnight might get lost amongst the shadows so you cannot see the visor well.

  • Opposing armour colours are fantastic with the Prefect armour type! A dark primary colour, paired with a very bright secondary colour really sticks out well with the Screenshots. You can really give something a TRON style look if you pair Steel with Ice, Coral, Sea Foam and Brick (Gold as also very cool looking too). Unfortunately, the opposite doesn’t appear to be as effective, but with the addition of the right lighting and maybe Juicy FX put into the mix, it’ll stand out even better.

  • Forerunner weaponry when paired with the Prefect armour looks extremely awesome. The Surpessor and Scattershot are a fave for me currently, thanks to their orange glow. The Incineration Cannon works too, but you need to angle taking the Screenie right so you can see the Spartan effectively enough. Pairing the right colour scheme with these weapons really works too (Steel and Orange with a standard Surpressor look sweet!

Best of luck to anyone else taking part for the next Screenshot Challenge and I’m looking forwards to seeing what you’re all capable of creating!

One last one before I go though, I created this Screenie again with the Grifball Gametype, playing on solace with the Addition of the Next Gen and Colorblind FX, the addition of Next Gen seems to add just a teensy bit more depth to the darker spots, which is why I added it:

Hope you like my newest creations, any comments/feedback/critique is greatly welcomed!

Hey, here are some of my screenshots. I hope you enjoy them! If you have any tips, I love to experiment!

I figured I’d post a somewhat funny one about Oceanic armor and my recent ā€œunderwater explorationā€ :stuck_out_tongue:

This new variant of the OCEANIC Spartan armor set enhances underwater sight and mobility, as well as regulating core temperature for elongated explorations in deep waters.

Thanks Verdigris! That one was very much a right time, right place snap. I’d accidentally fallen down the ledge on Haven so I wasn’t even planning on running down there, but it worked. :smiley:

Interesting, this perspective is new to me. You can view beyond PV, clearly.

That’s a pretty cool effect with the Promethean Vision! Perfect placement of the Spartan too!

Thank you, It took a wider angle screen shot than what I had in the view finder and there is a grid ghost, I need to work on getting the screen shot a little tighter and see if the grid is always going to show up. It has been very enjoyable playing ā€œphotographerā€ with Halo4. Great graphics and community.

Don’t expect to see new Screenshots from me ever again. I got File-Share banned for no reason bros.

Is it a permanent or temporary one Xerosus?

Thanks Maverick! It always seems to be that my accidental Screenshots come out the best. XD
