This has been patched and no longer works, i’ll keep the video up for reference, especially for the mods and settings mentioned. Hopefully CO will allow us to use this in the future

Infuriating! I did your settings and while no where near as good looking as yours, was still miles better than the default settings. Re-loaded, settings were still there but other than the game's toolbar, my mouse was disabled in game. As soon as I opened the camera settings again, they reverted and my mouse worked again. Hopefully Lumina can get some of these extra settings incorporated and then made savable / loadable.

@@poger67 Yes, sadly this hack doesn't work anymore. I'm now using the mod PreservePhotoMode, as it provides more options to Lumina. Skyve says it's outdated but it still works for me. Hopefully, CO will add it in the base game in the near future

It outrages me that Colossal Order hasn't release a patch to keep Photo Mode enabled while playing. They could have written the patch in 10 minutes, there's nothing complicated about it.

I really hope they fix the game visuals to be more appealling on all day times and all seasons settings , they can fix the colors and lighting. This game has a huge potential, visually it can be stunning. they should consider this as priority What do you think ?

100%! This is low hanging fruit, the tools are there, so let us use them!

This option should be in game. It just reveals that they didn't make CS2 for players. Pure lack of vision.

Just saw this - While the tweak no longer works maybe you can make a video on the graphics setting you use please?

I know, so sad! I've always advocated for using the recommended settings given by Paradox, everyone's setup is different, so test things out: support.paradoxplaza.com/hc/en-us/articles/14648080779538-Cities-Skylines-2-Our-Guide-to-Optimizing-Performance

Not getting anything close with those settings, might be something shared with graphical settings. Mind sharing what your graphical settings are.

@SunnyScunny 5 ай бұрын

I am using most of the recommended settings from Paradox, except for the resolution which is set to 4K. support.paradoxplaza.com/hc/en-us/articles/14648080779538-Cities-Skylines-2-Our-Guide-to-Optimizing-Performance

Yes! But only if you selected a time, however, I don't think this hack works anymore. 😔

How does your game look so crisp? when i throw everything up in the advanced video settings, anti aliassing messes up the zone colouring, if i set the AA a bit lower, the shadows flicker very bad.

@SunnyScunny 5 ай бұрын

KZbin compression hides a lot of the lumps and bumps of SMAA, and cinematics are still recorded in TAA to prevent flickering. Hopefully the bugs with it are fixed in the next patch!

@@SunnyScunny Ah ofcourse, i forogot that was an option since you dont need zone coloring in cinematics anyway :)
