:hmm2:No, it's not right. Ive had similar experience with sun being square (not sun halo), but that was after some failed tweaks to scene dat. Does it happen after reloading the game? Too much antialiasing maybe? Or maybe it was common in 1.4 version of the game.

Edit - are you using PE4 final (~september 2008), cause there is a mention of "blocky fire fix" in read me of this mod I have on hdd right now. Should be fixed...

Edit2 - if PE4 guys fixed it I suspect the file "particles.dat" (in Library) was involved, and if RSRD (its old version) overwrites this file (or maybe materials.dat too?) then the fix could be lost.

Check what mod affects the particals.dat, or materials.dat file(s). That is what causes it. I know the Splash Effects mod makes fire do that in FOTRS.

I would try removing PE4 and try the game. But open the files individually and go from there. The sub mods shouldn't be an issue, as they just mod the sub files, and nothing else.

would it be an option to download PE2
does anybody got a link for that
or should i delete the fire file from PE4 and enable it again

I'm pretty sure Keldunk's tweaks are for 1.5 and not 1.4. Not sure if it would cause that issue though:hmmm:

[messageboy101]

keldunks tweaks work and they only do sub smoke and waterstreams
were can i find the fire file in PE4???

[stanger]

The fire texture (if moded) is in textures folder, but it it controlled (the fire) by particles.dat (and maybe materials.dat) in library folder.
Can you check RSRD version you are using if it has particles.dat and materials.dat too?
I'm not pretending I know how they (PE4 authors) did the fix, if its simply texture edit or dat file edit, but both files from PE4 and RSRD can be compared to see, and edited to made compatible with both mods.

Take a look here too: http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showpost.php?p=663126&postcount=770
(but, unfortunately, links are down too; but still, at least some info)
