Default Stars on the water

Hey...

I just had a crazy idea about something, and I need some help to figure if it's possible. The old gang here might gimme a hand...

I thought about making reflections of the stars on the water. I thought the stars were only part of the sky, fixed there, not real objects. If so, they can't have reflection.

But then I thought... "what if they're objects?"

Cos in Scene.dat, there's a node called "SkyObjRadius". The stars are included. So, if they are actually objects, they can have reflections on the water no problem. They just don't have a node. It's necessary to create a node called "Stars" and another inside, with definitions for "water reflection". Just like the moon.

The question is: Are stars objects? Is it possible?

If so, how do I do it? I never messed up with creating new nodes and fixing ID's. Well, once, months back, with Rubini, we were modding the lifeboats. But I forgot everything about it, and honestly I didn't had much time on the last few months for sh3. Just some hours, used to create simple mods.

So, any help is appreciated!
