Just an opinion but the colour in even Mike's screenshots seems 'off' somehow.

The resolution and detail are incredibly lifelike  - but not the colours somehow. 

Of course they seem off. He hasn't corrected them yet! I won't say more though since he's asked us to keep it in his forum.

Look at the colours in this compared to those Legacy frames:

(All you have to do is make the GOUT match this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

First of all, those shots are all taken with a camera off a screen. Second, there's an obvious kinda yellow tint in that scene, at least in the shadows.

In GOUT, that scene is kinda cyan/blue-ish which means if I match it to that screenshot, more yellow scenes like some on Tatooine will be VERY yellow. The ending ceremony is also a bit too yellow already with my settings.

I think it's obvious that the GOUT comes from some much more inconsistent prints than the Senator version. Had the GOUT been sourced from a technicolor print, it would've been MUCH easier to dig up all that color the right way.

So bottom line, don't get your hopes up too high! I'm still trying to balance everything though, and to find a better way to increase saturation, so I might find a way to make it look better, but it won't ever be close to technicolor.
