Really big engine glows.
http://www.sonicstrike.net/~viral/trails.jpg

I'm not sure if engine glows are *supposed* to be that big (intersect the ship's hull, etc.) or not. Any help here? If possible.. any way to make them a little less 'dominating?' Bad choice of words, but they are really big to me. :p

It looks like you're using the standard glows.

Installing some up-to-date engine trail graphics set should clear those issues.

Try using the L-B hybrid graphics.

The intersection problem is something yet to be fixed by the SCP team (sadly).

Viralphrame, what Lightspeed said would help but I would recommend trying out Fs2_Open. An installation guide with files can be found @ the wiki and the Media VP files(you will need to install fs2_open to use this) will not only solve your engine glows to an extent as described by Lightspeed but will enhance gameplay by 10+ fold... :D btw

:welcome:

As he's posting in the SCP forum, I assume he already uses SCP, but without the media VPs.

My mistake.. I thought SCP builds came stock with those Media VPs. Looks like I was wrong!

Edit: For the record, though, I'm using SCP Build 3.6.

Opps, didn't pick up on that :p

Btw I suggest you check the RECENT SCP BUILDS forum often. The newest builds are usually the best to use, they include bug fixes and sometimes upgrades.
