The future of lighting flags in FSO
Asteroth:
https://wiki.hard-light.net/index.php/Lighting_Profiles.tbl has a full description. By making such a table and putting it in your root data/tables directory it will overwrite/modify any downstream mod.
jadeddragoon:
There are still command line options for lighting. It's mainly the specular lighting command line flags that have been depreciated. There are also several new command line flags. I believe the idea is for mod creators to lean toward using the tables, though any one can as Asteroth points out.
Trivial Psychic:
I've been testing out the Command Line flags (thanks for that Dragon, BTW), though I'm still having difficulty getting things to match up with how I had it before. It'll take more trial end error to get it how I want it.
EatThePath:
Can you post a screenshot or old flags? I'd not mind trying to help, and if there's a gap I'll see if I can help fill it.
Trivial Psychic:
This is what I used:
-ambient_factor 75 -spec_point 1.5 -spec_static 2.0 -spec_tube 2.0 -shadow_quality 3
I'm currently using this:
-ambient 0.1 -light 0.1 -emissive 0.15 -shadow_quality 3
The lighting in the cockpit (flying TBP you get cockpit view by default on most fighters) is different. There are a hell of a lot more shadows and shifting light sources. I also get some ripply rainbow pattern on some of the cockpit as well.
