In my opinion I second that vote...remove the logo and give the dirt a little more "realism" also give the swords a little more contrast. again my opinion.

I dunno how I'd go about making the dirt look more "real"... Is it the color or the texture that looks unrealistic?

Here is with +25% contrast and no logo:

Easy...cracks in the dirt, and give it a darker color and maybe increase the visibility of the handle.
 
Looks much better (too me) somethings off thou I can't say exactly what...

Dirts perfect. I'm thinking maybe add a tad more light so more of the masamunes handle is visible. at first glance (on the thumb nail) it looks like it's hilt then floating gold piece.

Honestly though, I like
 
My idea for this submission is to incorporate it into the credit video that plays before the menu, capping it with the following (rough mockup animation)

the flash would end the video, and the still highrez background would be present inplace of the original.

Thoughts?

Yeah I was playing around with Aali's drivers the other day trying to get it to read APNG files but to no avail I failed...I know of a couple of great programers personally but they won't give FF7 the time of day.
 
oh i was gonna put the animated part in the movie file that has the credits playing with the prelude, and have it cut to the still highrez image
 
I don't think the credits are a movie file, I think that sequence is hard-coded into the executable...
 
well the movie file is accessible on the disc, shouldnt we be able to swap it?

I'll tell you what it is. The dirt texture is fantastic, but it looks like it was applied flat. It should be distorted, put at an angle, to simulate some level of perspective.
 
Test render using APZ's buster sword., any thoughts, should I get rid of the stones or maybe add some more?

Larger without the stones.

Much better without the stones. Maybe if they looked a little more natural and less symmetrical it'd be okay. Also, have you considered having a softer edge on the light?
 
just a note, if you guys are trying to match the original, its not actually in the ground, kinda just floating.
 
I know, but it looks odd just floating.

Softer edge on the lighting as per Covaar's suggestion..

I like it Dragonninja.
Re render to 1280 x 960 for me? :)

Also, i dunno if this is an option for rendering. But render with the highest amount of anti aliasing and anisotropic filtering. it should enhance image quality (though it looks great as is)
