ok,  No more varicoloured starfield, edges faded a bit more, and entire images faded, except for the planet, allowing some stars to shine through the nebula.

This looks better :)

Now, the planet is kinda low res. There's plenty of them available in numerous mods. Go and get a better, hi-res and shiny one :D

I know it's my obsession about Lightspeed's nebulae but could you try using your nebulas WITH lightspeed's ones?

I would love to use LS nebs, but I can't open dds files.

LS nebulae are cool, no question, but why not create new ones from scratch that blend with the ones used by SW_IH in this mod?

OK i got them, I'll be installing them tonight.  The background is important to me for one simple reason, once it is set, it is etched in stone for every mission.  The only thing that will change is planets.  This is because the mod takes place entirely in one system.  So other than planets and sun size.....well you get the picture.

For a good editor for dds files I recommend Paint.net (it's also great for any other type of image and it supports tons of plugins)

Gimp is better :p
Mwahah :lol:
Gimp is uglier, less handy and paint.net is the best at every aspect except OS portability.

Let's not start arguing about which program is better, since this isn't the time or place, and depends on the user anyway.




GIMP is better though. :p

No, those are craters.. I fade the nebulae, but not the planets.

I call this the "Crying Lion"  This one is custom, and meant to replace the crab that Topace doesn't like.
