Gf_neutronstar rendering problem
-
Be aware that raising that value causes issues with atmosphere flickering.

Can’t remember if i’ve hacked the exe or not tbh for the visibility. If i didn’t, then it worked when i put the line into the system ini. If i did hack the exe, it worked when i added the entry to the system ini file. Either way, that needs to be added no matter what.
** EDIT **
Just checked my exe file, it’s not edited for the view distance as its still at the original setting, so its the line in the system ini that seems to be the cure, i set mine to 100000 and works like a charm.

I’ll give that a try. Thanks.
A neutron star in Sigma-19? But… but…, why? (just curious) -
Not yours, Capt.Morgan’s.
Bw07 = Sigma19
-
OK, I guess I understand. The neutron star effect is being added to one of the suns in Bw07? I thought a Neutron Star (like in O41) was being added and wondered about the backstory behind it.
-
This is for the Broken Bonds mod, which is a total conversion mod. Our bw07 isn’t Sigma-19 at all.
We threw the effect onto a star, rather than a vanilla neutron star. The vanilla neutron star looks absolutely nothing like a real one, so we weren’t going to use it.

If you happen to know what a real neutron star looks like up close, I’m pretty sure there are some physicists who would love to speak with you about it.

So the Freelancer Neutron Star may still be an option, although some light won’t hurt it.
Anyway, suit yourself. I’m not gonna force you to do anything.

Well considering the age of the game you might be surprised at just how similar the neutron star and it’s effect are to an animation they created in the recent series wonders of the universe on the bbc. Watch this.
-
Neutron stars aren’t black, please. They’re stars like any other, and are bright enough to blind you, just like any other.
The BBC video makes them black so you can see the rest of the features, but in reality (and in the visible spectrum), any star, no matter the kind, is pure white.

Really depends how you define ‘Star’ there’s a lot of post-main sequence ‘stars’ that are dark, or don’t emit visible light. Also, IIRC, many stars burn blue, red, and a few other colours. It all comes down to heat.
-
No. All stars are black bodies. They are all white.
The color you’re referring to can only be seen through the edge (the lens flare, essentially) of the star, but the actual surface will appear white to any observer looking through the visible spectrum (ie humans, most animals). It’s not because it’s called a “brown dwarf” that it looks like a flying turd; it’s just less energetic than most stars and thus won’t be quite as bright, but it’s still white. Same goes for any star.
-
FF is right. The star’s energy level decides it’s color (blue is the strongest).
You see the star’s color only under a filter (Earth’s atmosphere for example) of ambient gas. The thicker the filter is, the more colorful the star is.
Just a fact: Did you know a sun is a living creature? -
More details please?
