Scrivener Posted March 13, 2003 Report Share Posted March 13, 2003 Going through the textures (and replacing some of them with new 32bit versions) I came across a Sun.bmp in the gfxsfx folder. Since it's not in with the Skybox textures, I assume it was meant to be used along with the lense flare. I may not have my 3D stars but I'd me more than happy with a source for the lense flares. Is there any way to make the 'sun' part of the lense flare effect or at least add it into the skybox in the appropriate place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cmdr Nova Posted May 4, 2003 Report Share Posted May 4, 2003 Swapping out the original bitmaps with ones he's created. Hence, modding. I'm not sure about that sun.bmp. The lens flares and the sun thing may be part of the graphics engine itself, since the effect (I think) is the same on each skybox. Dunno. I may be way off on this one. And I'm posting 2 months late.
