Would it be possible to apply the effect to coronas and/or star bitmaps rather than the white-out?

[Valathil]

Again OOPS on the coronas

mmm... i can't see ships, don't know why... but when i activate the "fixed render pipeline" flag their appears.
I think is something to do with the shaders file. Can anyone upload the lastest shaders file please?

[Valathil]

By popular demand a combined shadow & lightshaft build

Use what's included in this or the shadow build thread.

A quick reminder of the directory the shader files belong in, if you please sir.

mediavps_3612\data\effects

Thanks, testing

Update:  Shadows seem to be working but I see no sunshafts at all.  I also checked for godrays and noticed those also weren't present.  Finally a quick scan for crepuscular rays also yielded no results  
There is no debug build provided that I saw, so I can't provide a debug log.   And yes, I was being smarty about naming all 3  

[Cobra]

Enable post processing?

[Skarab]

all features are on/checked except "enable scale to window..." and "force shafts off"

[Cobra]

Ah, that's why. The table is missing the $Sample Number flag.

Here's a fixed version.

Just tried it again during lunch with that modified table Cobra, still no good on the shafts.  I'm not sure what else to  try... just to be certain, the modified table goes in ...\Freespace 2\MediaVPs_3612\data\tables?

Edit: are there any command line entries necessary in the launcher?

[The E]

At this point, I would like to see an fs2_open.log.

[Skarab]

I don't see a way to do that with this build, there is no debug version included in the download unfortunately

[Commander Zane]

Are you checking in-mission? I thought I might have been having a similar issue until I loaded a test mission I set up for an unrelated problem that I was noticing, and both shadows and rays are rendered.

[Kolgena]

Some missions might be able to force off sunshafts. I seem to remember that the BP missions didn't want to render sunshafts for me, but retail missions were fine.

[Valathil]

i think thats cause BP's post_process.tbl overrides the one i provided
