Also comes with an option in FRED to turn them on and off on a per-mission basis, regardless of the mission having a nebula
Perfect for the Homeworld to Freespace 2 conversion.

Coming soon to a source code project near you.

Admins: Yes, this is relevant, because some time back there was a discussion about how it wasn't possible to include ship trails in TAP, because they would only appear in a nebula mission. As can easily be seen, this is no longer the case

Well that solves that..
Thank you muchly...
Is that your doing, or someone else's?

Correct me if I'm wrong but there aren't any stars in those pics, just debris. I'm guessing that whoever took out the nebula rendering code forgot to put the stars data back in.

Or have you just lowered the level of stars in FRED2?

Thorn · **Reply #3 on:** July 14, 2002, 09:11:00 pm

There are stars... I see a couple in the second pic.. I think...

By no means are those the best shots, but they were quick to make and show that the background and stars still work.

Yes, it's my doing. If you want, Thorn, I can send you the executables for testing purposes.

Is it just me or are that a FS1 interface?

Nope, that's definitely FS2's HUD, if that's what you mean.

Why do they fighters have the nebula trails on them? it looks corkey outside a nebula, looks like they are in a giant wind tunnel.

Thorn · **Reply #8 on:** July 15, 2002, 03:38:19 pm

make em bigger and stick a bunch of em around the engine... voila.. HW style ion trails...

Dang, I go off for a few days and immediately someone makes something like this?

Anyway, looking good

*thwap*, the trails are the whole point. Go back and play homeworld, all strike craft have trails behind them. .. However, the trails do need to be behind the engine, not on the wing tips.

Which is where we plan on putting them

Looks like that problem is solved, spares me some coding (mayby)
