I have a question regarding glare in the light bulb. Is there anyway to change the brightness of the actual light bulbs? I've always found them a little too bright for me. If there was a graphic file I could adjust that.

Wow. That's some AMAZING work! AMAZING!! Looking forward to seeing the final product!

(oooh...one quick question. Your pictures seem so much more realistically lit than mine. My control room seems so...washed out in comparison. Are you running any mods or anything that make the contrast greater, or rooms darker, or something?)

I knew there was something missing. This has been asked many times already and reminds me of doing it asap.

Looks like the link for type IX open hatch (on post #1) is broken, isn't it?

EDIT: don't mind, I found the updated link:

Moin,

how do you like my party sub?



But seriousely, after days of hard work I managed to dim the lights and change their color a little bit.



I´ve made the lights a little warmer adding some red to them. Even if you don´t see it on the screens above, the lights are dimmed. The halo and the source aren´t as bright as in stock. Tell me what you think!


Regards,
DD

Default Can't find file on FF

I can't find the second file I need on the File Front link, am I missing it or does it need reloading. I really want this mod installed :p (TypeVII_OpenHatch_Peri_Correct)

I like the dimmer lights! I have always found the original ones a bit too bright (BTW there is one light in the CR that shines through the wall and disturbs me a bit when I am lying in captain's bed).

So as Bdu says: keep up the good work, DD!

Very cool!

Hmmm...I would not have thought it possible (usually, items of the same 'type' use the same shader/textures), but your 'party sub' pic indicates that different lights ARE possible, so...

...for a touch of detail, why not use some 'brighter' and 'dimmer' lights (for example, mix some of your new lights with the stock lights...or, anyway, some lights halfway between yours and the stock) to indicate a more aged boat with a set of bulbs not quite all factory-freshly-installed?

Anyone who has been through a warehouse or machine shop that has been running any significant length of time will note the variety of grunge on the light bulbs based on time since last replacement. I would expect that the U-Boats would see a similar effect on their lights.
