The sun halo in the game make's up a large portion of the game's lighting / reflection and color work from the Sun rise to the sun set and everything inbetween.

There is no way to see the full effect's of this mod or all of the work we did and or post in screen shot's unless you have a video card that can produce the Sun Halo.

That Sun halo change's more effect's and over all impact in the game than you can imagine.

Seeing I can have the halo in my game I base all of my work on using it to my advantage because I know eventualy everyone will have a card that can produce this effect in the future.

The sun is not set up in game to cast an actual reflection so the game can not simulate it only the halo is designed to make color change's and reflection effect's. So not having it in game is like having the sun behind light cloud's all the time in game as far as lighting goes.

If you do not believe me ask AVGWarhawk he started out with not having a sun halo and now that he got it working in game he refuses to settle on not having it in game anymore. He has an ATI card and got it to work so ask him how he did it if you have an ATI card.

LMAO I hear ya there. I may not be actualy playing right now seeing more is testing but at least I can play around to see how it is working. Once I get the new control file out I have to finish up the work on the ship's and release that to everyone to download that is the entire comunity. Then I have to work on the particle's file a little bit to make sure the fire effect's go out once the object is under water.

To replace the ocean sky control file I sent out due to a mistake I made in the sun rise sun set sequence. I am testing it now to make sure all is well. I goofed when trying to smooth out the sun rise and messed up the sun set with out realizing it until it was too late.

So there will be a NEW OCEAN SKY control file sent out as soon as I am sure it is okay this time. The sun rise is set now just need to check the sun set out in game. It isn;t easy seeing I am in a bad area for plane's. LOL!!!

See it is hard making the color sequences work right in game. The game actualy needs one more node to make the sun rise to night sequence work perfect. So with not having enough sky node's to work with it makes setting them up perfect dificult to get a good ballance and still have a dark night.

I am getting some new one's from LukeFF right now he is trying to ballance out the engine sound's from surfacing to the all stop sound to the other end of the spectrum. he is trying to make sure they sound more realistic to the actual possition you are in and on the sub.

AVGWarhawk · 11-02-07, 06:36 PM

I did drop in a sound card that supports 7.1 and what a difference with the noice in relation to your ears.

Now there is a DAD with a brain!!!!

Other Dad's need to take note of this manuver. See learning about stealth in the game is helping you in real life.

When in your desperation to make a sequence work in game of sky color changes you start the game without applying the actual mod.

Or instead of changing the sky pack number to use to a -5 you change the sun's possition to -5 when it should be a -60 with a -5.

MONOLITH · 11-02-07, 08:43 PM

Slow down Dave.

Keep it enjoyable.

When in your desperation to make a sequence work in game of sky color changes you start the game without applying the actual mod. Or instead of changing the sky pack number to use to a -5 you change the sun's possition to -5 when it should be a -60 with a -5. __________________ AIR_BASE_NAV_MAP_MOD Reflections_on_the_Water
