Hello everyone,
I'm a bit late to the party having only recently discovered Freespace Open. I was a huge fan of the old StarWars/Tie Fighter games back in the early 90s (actually got them both in the original boxes here under my desk) and it looks like this is pretty much more of the same with lots of polish. It's a tremendous achievement by all those involved and always great to see older games survive the test of time. And the installer makes life so simple.
One option I remember in the Lucasarts games was being able to turn off the background nebulae (and just have the stars). Is it possible to do that in FS Open? I did a quick search here on the forum. I found the Nicer Nebulae thread (which looks simply awesome) but I think that's specific to certain nebula missions, right? I also found lots of threads on editing skyboxes but nothing about disabling or turning them off. I find them too bright and vivid and would like to see how the game feels with a blacker looking space (perhaps just with motion debris on). Is there an easy way to do this without creating my own skyboxes (if they are skyboxes). Oh yeah, I tried switching the Nebula detail down to minimum in the in-game options, it didn't seem to make any difference.
Thanks for reading :-)
Hope this is posted in the correct place. :-)
