Crymod.com (the new Crysis game) announced a new end date for their "Crysis
vs Reality" contest - 1st June. You have to supply any real image/photo and
then you have to try to reproduce that image in Crysis (within the editor)
as best you can.

I'm going to have a go at this as I think I might have a chance.
Interesting challenge though.
Wish me luck Povers! :)

I don't understand why they can't get the contrast/brightness correct in
computer games, the contrast is always way too low and often not bright
enough (compared to a photo). In the first CryMod shot on that page, if you
load it into PaintShop and fiddle with the levels you can easily get
something that looks way more realistic.

Good luck!
PS - if you're not allowed to mod the CryMod shots, mod the photo first so
that it matches the brightness/contrast of the CryMod shot :-)

Yes, I noticed this too. Strange really because you can change
brightness and contrast within the actual game itself, so that's where my
shot will come from instead of inside the editor. ;)

Yes, good idea! I'm thinking of maybe something like these:
http://www.pbase.com/eldarrio/image/80781159
http://www.coloradomountainman.com/mountainscenery.html
What do you think? I quite like that first link.

Yes, I do too, but maybe the judges will be looking for something that shows
off the CryEngine more, ie something with more trees :-)

On the other hand that's what everyone else might think and the judges
will be flicking through hundreds of shots of trees and foliage, on the
other other hand people might realise that and thus produce lots of rocky
type shots; on the other other other hand though... :-)
The third photo on the second link I'd think impressive to duplicate,
trees, ground, sky, water and a structure.
Oh and break a leg.

I will be brief but not nearly so brief as Salvador Dali, who gave the

finished," then he sat down.
