Title: background stars
Post by: crushingtreads on August 26, 2014, 11:02:51 am
i havent used fso in a while so this may be a silly mistake but i cant figure out how to use the starry backgrounds from the freespace 2 campaign in my missions. i dont mean the nebula, im still messing around with that but even setting the amount of stars to maximum it still looks a lot less than the fs2 campaign. any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you mean "the Freespace 2 campaign with the MediaVPs", that would be because they use a skybox called "Starfield.pof" instead of the default stars.

Exactly. See here (http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/Skybox) and here (http://www.hard-light.net/wiki/index.php/Upgrading_campaigns#Skybox) for a bit more information.
