Custom loading screen Screenshots

As with the first module, there are custom load screens for each area. Here are some before and after shots. The first three pictures are taken in the toolset.













And here they are as loadscreens. To get this effect I take the screenshots and loaded them into GIMP. First I applied the Oilify filter (Filter -> Artistic -> Oilify) using the default settings. The border was done by using the Fuzzy Border filter (Filter -> Decor -> Fuzzy Border) with a 32 pixel black border.

Oilify works well when there's significant color contrast or strong colors.


















The middle picture in each set is the Solvheil Ruins prefab (http://nwvault.ign.com/View.php?view=NWN2PrefabAreas.Detail&id=363)
