Welcome back to the Train Sim World Screenshot Competition! This is the fourth week of January 2019. This week's theme: Enhanced (This includes use of shader mods and tools, just make sure you keep it to the official content!) How it Works? The thread opens each Friday for entrants to submit their screenshots. The thread is closed the following Wednesday morning to allow everyone to cast their vote. Two days later on Friday we announce the winner and open the new thread of the next competition. Competition Rules: We have added a new rule to the T&C's of the competition: Users cannot vote more than once for the same entry, including all multiple accounts. The rule is applied starting from this contest. Limit is 2 screenshots per person; 1 screenshot per post. Include in your post the route the screenshot was taken on. Screenshots must be in a 16:9 resolution. Screenshots must fit the theme of the week, as stated at the end of this post. Official content only. Please make sure anything that is not available on the Steam Store or Dovetail Store is not shown in the screenshot. - This means no reshade, repaint mods, track upgrades or workshop routes. Your entry may be disqualified if it is deemed to not follow these rules. Please limit chat to only when absolutely necessary. Voting Rules: Users cannot vote more than once for the same entry, including all multiple accounts. Competition closes at mid-day Friday (UK time). The screenshot with the most upvotes is declared the winner. Winner's Prize: The winning screenshot will appear in the game as a loadscreen for 4 weeks!

Hi there! Quick question: How much 'enhanced' is too much? I have some crazy ideas but those might be too poorly representative of the game itself... What is the upper boundary on edits and modifications we can make? Cheers, Prof
Hi ProfCreeptonius. While it would be difficult for me to give you exact boundaries for what is acceptable and what is not, I would say that you shouldn't go into fantasy or anything similar. Slight retouching to make the screenshot more vivid is the best option. Remember, that there will be a winner who will be voted in, so your work would better be attractive to a wider audience.
Enhanced graphics make for an enhanced simulator experience. No need to enhance screenshots, they already come out perfect. Screenshot taken on Rapid Transit
