Re: Singh's Background Emporium
I'm going to start annoying people in this thread in a bit by showing off some of the awesome pseudo-random backgrounds thrown together by my non-linear campaign with absolutely no care or attention.   :P

Re: Singh's Background Emporium
hi,
not bad, the moon looks really good.

the only thing is, he has alaising on the edge, maybe you can lower it, i think then will look it really perfect.

Re: Singh's Background Emporium
Rather than make a new thread, i'll just ask here:

How would one add in the enhanced star-field - the one used in the main FS2 campaign among others - to a FRED'ed mission? Y'know, the one that septuples the number of stars visible?

Re: Singh's Background Emporium
Basically it's a skybox. Open up one of the other missions in FRED and look on the background editor to find it's name.

Re: Singh's Background Emporium
It would seem that skybox names aren't actually presented when original FS2 campaign missions are opened, or other campaign missions I know to possess the enhanced starfield.

Re: Singh's Background Emporium
hi,
its starfield.pof.

but with the normals stars you have a effect on the stars if you use the afterburner, they smudge short on topspeed.
the starfield.pof is static but have more stars.

Re: Singh's Background Emporium
Right, that's got it working perfectly, compliments Singh's nebulae quite nicely, indeed. Ta. :yes:

 
Re: Singh's Background Emporium

As long as I'm here I should share  background that I found:


It's a black hole!  :D
Found it in Into the Depths of Hell Chapter 4.

Re: Singh's Background Emporium
That's actually not what a black hole looks like. ;)

 
Re: Singh's Background Emporium
I'll remind you that I didn't create that background. Noise did.

Re: Singh's Background Emporium
SA has an actual black hole texture...for a dead black hole, no accretion disk.

And isn't there a black hole with accretion disk in one of the multiplayer missions?

IPAndrews that background looks pretty good :yes:. Is the planet meant to look slightly elliptical?

Re: Singh's Background Emporium
Ok, it took shorter than I expected. I'll try to take screenshots now, but no way to confirm if FS2 will run atm.... Anyone willing to give it a go?

Edit: forgot the title. As you'll see in the screenshots below, its aptly named 'Hell's Inferno'

Hell's Inferno? For an english the name is ok but in my language,well,it means "Hell's Hell" .
Your maps are excellent,but you should change colors,you make or something all blue or something all red....

Re: Singh's Background Emporium
I think that would be better stated in your language as "Hell's Fire"

I hate this,but dammit Goob is right!

Inferno=Hell,not "Fire".You know this word due to Dante's work and sometimes prefer it to Hell,but Hell's Fire(or Hellfire)is "Fuoco dell'Inferno",which is cool anyway.

Re: Singh's Background Emporium
If you want to see a skybox, write "starfield.pof" in the proper field(background, skybox model)when using FRED Open.

If you want to create a skybox, you first have to see it :)
