maybe a_c can answer that one. The targeting scanner enhancement does point you in the right direction though.

It is a trivial change: (Not tested).

@smcameron: The Jim Hejl formula is used for tonemapping plus gamma correction. So, resulting in a value of 0.84 for white is a standard part of the package (the remaining space till 1.0 must be used for representation of high dynamic range values). Since we don't have proper high dynamic range in O...

Ambient light: [...] You can try introducing exposure in the default ships' fragment shader in order to make things a bit more visible. It works more or less the same as it would with a photo camera. The higher the value, the more detail you can discern in darker tones and the brighter the light to...

Does etc/profile call GNUstep.sh? In my environment (which is not MSYS2 based, so I could be off with my intuition), there is this line towards the end of etc/profile: . /mingw/../devlibs/gnustep1201/System/Library/Makefiles/GNUstep.sh The question here is, why try to build with a system that is not...

Pardon my ignorance but where is the atmosphere fragment shader please? Quick search for cosThreshold in each of the files that I found with 'shader' in the title came up blank. The atmosphere fragment shader is at oolite.app/Resources/Shaders/oolite-default-atmosphere.fragment. You can make change...

If your screens are at Extra Detail, then there is a problem with the atmosphere shader,as in, it does not generate an atmosphere. Rescaling the ATMOSPHERE_DEPTH might help, but it is not guaranteed. You may have to tinker with the formula that calculates cosThreshold in the atmosphere fragment shad...

I'm not seeing the atmosphere effect you posted in the Progress thread in January... Would I be correct in thinking that OOStandaloneAtmosphereGenerator (.h & .m) might be good places to investigate? I don't think so, but maybe the atmosphere shaders would be. Do you get any shader errors in your l...

Looking good. If you are using trunk, can you please check whether the resizing of planets breaks the atmosphere shaders in any way or not? Do the atmospheres still look OK in Extra Detail both from nearby and afar?

Hi pagroove! Nice to see you around again.

These look great!! :shock: I can include them into the OXPs if you would like. Besides dropping these files in the respective texture folders, what config changes do you need to make? As for the Asp, do you need to create specgloss maps for each different livery? You can certainly include them if y...

Being in quarantine results in free time to take on some side projects. This one is for gsagostinho: Specgloss maps for the Asp and the Fer de Lance. Here we go: https://i.postimg.cc/g2vfBmp8/image.png https://i.postimg.cc/cCyRjy0t/image.png https://i.postimg.cc/Yq27KcvF/image.png https://i.postimg....

Can't reproduce here. The steps I follow: 1. Load up save file with fuel scoop equipment present and 35t cargo capacity. 2. I buy 1t liquor/wines and using debug console, I award 1200kg gold and 499kg platinum. I see 2t are loaded, which is expected. 3. Launch and check that that the same tonnage as...

Those keys refer to primable equipment only. The core game does not feature primable equipment, so you will need to install OXP stuff to see them functioning. Selected primable OXP equipment can be allocated to two special reserved slots: one for offensive and one for defensive devices. The fast act...

Bug confirmed. Fixed in commit 6b5ec6a.

Must the wormhole be scanned by the player however?

Yes. For anything not scanned, we can handwave it by saying that the ship was going the opposite way from the player - if the wormhole is not scanned for confirmation of destination, who could ever prove otherwise?
