Today I was saving my photo in paint (after print screen ;) ) and accidentaly saved as a monochromatic .bmp. I tought "this is going to be awfull", but no, the picture was very cool (IMO), and I saved it in all the default paint formats.

There they go:

The original:

The .gif (not big change :D ):

Image

The 16 colors .bmp (looks like a cartoon, lol):

Image

The 256 colors .bmp:

Image

And the monochromatic (the coolest I think):

Image

So what about you people also something like this? MM1 and 2 can be very photogenic in monochromatic :lol:

Well , mm2br had an modified exe that was able to do something like this.

But if you modify all the textures, you should be able to do something like this, I guess :D

Ex: the cartoon cars, roads, sky and buildings. If you replace all them, you should be able to do something like this. Am I right?

Hey, this gave me an idea for an epic mod ;)

I would, but I dont know really much how to handle MM1 textures (the MM2 I know). Atleast, they dont seem to show in-game when I modify them :roll:

You can even make a mod for you graphics card, rendering the changes before displaying the change. Just that your game will perform like it will with 2x more AA.

How to do a mod like that? That would be very interesting :)

I made the effects in Paint, but now that whoami said that it was possible to do it directly in-game, I want to know more :)

I'm not exactly sure how, but as far as I know, you have to modify the driver or something.

I thought this was impossible as far as I have to reduce the texture and definition to make it look somewhat cartoonish. :wink:
