Thank you so much for doing settings for GWX 3.0. I have it successfully patched now and can't wait to give it a try. Best wishes.

Rik,

This may be a small nit, but I think the moon size is just a tad bit smaller than the sun. They should be about the same visual size because the moon perfectly eclipses the sun (usually). On rare occasions, the moon is slightly smaller than the sun during annular solar eclipses, causing a ring effect around the moon.

I doubt it will affect the gameplay much (chance of detection), but would a slightly larger moon cause the game system to add more reflective light into the scene?

rik007 · 09-23-24, 07:30 AM

Thank you John,

The size of the moon was no consideration for me as - indeed - there are no eclipses in Sh3. May look at it if any future release is on the horizon. Nothing in the pipeline though....

Regards,

Rik

Thanks, Rik.

I wasn't interested in the eclipses, I was focused on the effect of a smaller moon on lighting up the night. Would the night scene be brighter if the moon were a little bit larger?

You mean if you change the size of the moon disks in the moon.tga? No that will not impact brightness of the moon light.

There is a light attached to the moon that makes the moon shine. It is defined in the scene.sim. So it is seperate from the moon disk image.

JohnCarterOfMars · 09-23-24, 01:58 PM

Rik,

Thanks for that explanation.

Then it is simply a visual thing and has no impact on anything. In that case, this is a non-issue.

I got a weird visual bug with Fifi's NYGM ENHANCED Steel Coffin Edition and this mod combined. When looking forwards and up, I get a lot of constant flickering in the sky.

Not sure I can be much of a help, but please send me your mod stack and please re-enable the mods without the game running. Usually this happens when the the clouds and sky object intercede.
