Hi, I am enjoying this game but there is a subtle film grain or low level static effect that is irritating me, appears to be covering the whole screen but only really noticeable on ship textures due to dark skybox. Is there an option I can enable/disable to fix this? I have tried a few like FXAA and specularity.

-Thanks.

It is a post-processing setting, which is unfortunately only tweakable through table files. I can tell you more about how to disable it this evening when i'll be back home from work.

Tick "disable post-processing" or untick "enable post-processing" in the launcher.

Not sure which it is tbh

Awesome, thanks!

Yes, that would work, but that would disable ALL the post-processing. Some of us might appreciate a... finer approach

It's a fix ;D

I have had a look through and cannot find the table file to edit (as described here: http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/Post_processing.tbl). Does this mean I need to create a table file as it is resorting to default?

The table file is inside R1_Core.vp in your main folder. You'll need to extract it. I always found VPView the easiest tool for newbies but it seems the site it was hosted on no longer has it available so I don't know what to recommend. I'm sure others can point you in the right direction though.

Thanks, I have tracked down VPView and found the required table file, is it just a matter of extracting R1_Core.vp, editing the table file, then recompiling them?

[niffiwan]

you don't need to repack the table file, just put it into data/tables, you'll probably have to create that inside your Diaspora install folder.  Your modified copy of the table should override the one inside the VP.

[karajorma]

In fact you should never recompile the official Diaspora VPs. If you ever get any problems we'll take a look at the log and think that your VP is corrupt.

[Proply]

All done, thanks for your help - looks much better now

Excuse my lack of modding experience, but would this be an appropriate time to make use of a .tbm file? All that would be needed then would be a modpack, etc., etc...

[JCQ]

im pretty new to modding this game engine so i dont actually know what a tbm file is or what it does.
