Hi there! Do you use reshape? If so, what settings do you use? Thanks! Love your vamp posts btw

Hi anon. Yes, I do use reshade. Right now, I have 2 different profiles that I use, one for regular gameplay and one for playing with vampires.

The settings I use for both of them change quite a lot as I tweak and update them whilst I’m playing. My regular profile currently uses Depth of Field, Bloom, Vibrance and Lumasharpen. My vamps profile uses Depth of Field, Bloom, Tonemap, Vibrance and Lumasharpen.

Hey! Um just a quick question: Why do you (and many others) take screenshots using fraps or other programs and not the in-game function? I read in your FAQ that you size them down to 720p from 2160p.. Reason I’m wondering is cuz I use the in-game function and also get a size like 2160p (can’t remember exact size, but it’s not small!) so why do you use a program? What’s the difference? :)

Personally, I find I have more control over what I’m doing. The in-game camera is a bit clunky for me and to be honest I’m just used to using fraps as I use it for all my other games as well. It means I can organise everything a lot better as well. I’m not sure about quality as I haven’t compared the in-game camera to fraps but that could be also be a reason.

I resize them down to 720p just because that’s the maximum size Tumblr will host (unless they’ve changed it?) and I can’t be bothered uploading full-size screenshots to another host and linking them like I do on my main blog. It’s just too much hassle.

EDIT: Another reason is if you’re using something like Reshade, the in-game camera will not capture anything that Reshade changes since it’s an overlay. You need to either use the Reshade screenshot function or something like fraps to get those effects.

What is discord??

It’s a voice/chat program, primarily used by gaming groups and communities. If you’ve used Slack, it’s very similar but it has a desktop/mobile app and honestly it’s just much better.

I’ve just had a look at the SimblrSlack and realised there is already a Discord channel and I’m gonna reblog it in a sec

Oh girl you’re not ready for what’s gonna happen with adoreee

Yeah I just saw it and I’m so sad about it, I actually cried ;-;

As sad as I am though, I get it. What Adore is doing now and the person she’s grown into isn’t really fitted to Drag Race anymore. She’s got her style, she owns it and she shouldn’t have to change who she is or go through a lot of criticism that she doesn’t need just to win a competition. Her music and performing is what she loves, it’s what gives her confidence and it’s where she really shines. 

Even though Adore’s the reason I wanted to watch All Stars and everytime I saw her it brought a huge smile to my face, it’s not worth her losing confidence in herself and doubting herself just to be on the show. I’ll miss seeing her so much but I understand 😦
