+NeverEnough 78 Posted September 21, 2013 Stary, maybe you're getting burned out on modding SF2 because you have obviously been devoting so much time and effort to some really impressive additions. Thanks for the great contributions you have provided for our wonderment and enjoyment! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

+Menrva 4,201 Posted December 14, 2013 Hi Stary! I noticed that with SARCASM 1.5, while playing missions set during winter, on some terrains set with their correct longitude and latitude we have night instead of daylight. I noticed you changed this values in the .ini: [EnvironmentSystem] UpdateRate=60.0 InclinationAngle=60 Latitude=0.0 I restored the stock default values and now night during daylight hours is gone. I hope this proves useful in case you are planning an update of your awesome mod. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rends 166 Posted December 14, 2013 Blaze, Could you please describe exactly what you have done? I only get daylight in winter if i set the Latitude to around 30 in the germanyce ini Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Menrva 4,201 Posted December 14, 2013 (edited) Blaze,Could you please describe exactly what you have done?I only get daylight in winter if i set the Latitude to around 30 in the germanyce ini Rends, do not touch the terrain .ini (the GermanyCE.ini for instance). The Longitude and Latitude of the stock terrain are correct, so restore them to default. The values I changed are those of the EnvironmentSystem.ini (which is in the Flight folder) that comes with Stary's mod. The first values in that .ini are the following: [EnvironmentSystem] UpdateRate=60.0 InclinationAngle=60 Latitude=0.0 I just changed them to this: [EnvironmentSystem]UpdateRate=60.0InclinationAngle=23.5Latitude=34.0 It seems to work for me. Report if it works or not. Bye! Edited December 14, 2013 by blaze95 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wrench 9,849 Posted December 14, 2013 because the Earth does NOT have 60 degree axial tilt!!! (Neptune anyone?) wonder if Stary is/was modeling the wobble in our planet's axis?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bigrontheman 0 Posted January 29, 2015 HiThe clouds are much better than the stock ST2 versions - however, where has the soft transition between sky and horizon gone. In the stock install the sky and earth blend smoothly, but now there is a 'deep' blue horizon effect which clashes with the sky colour and looks a bit odd as it gets deeper the higher you fly. Can this be edited out in the .ini file?RegardsRon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+Stary 2,427 Posted February 10, 2015 Bigrontheman, that's something that will be reverted to stock values in SARCASM 2.0, but you can edit the environmentsystem.ini in Flight fodler yourself to have the stock transitions again: try replacing SARCASM 1.5 values with these taken from 2.0 beta I have: [Day]SunHeight=0.240SunBrightness=1.00SunLightLevel=0.99SunRadiance=0.00TwilightLensFlare=0.0SunColor=0.680,0.694,0.641AmbientColor=0.340,0.340,0.375SkyColor=0.200,0.506,0.804HorizonColor=0.806,0.908,0.967FogColor=0.706,0.816,0.902SunSpecularColor=0.810,0.762,0.740HDRSunColor=1.000,1.000,1.000LightSrcModifier=1.0[Day1]SunHeight=0.150SunBrightness=1.00SunLightLevel=0.95SunRadiance=0.00TwilightLensFlare=0.0SunColor=0.555,0.560,0.538AmbientColor=0.330,0.330,0.365SkyColor=0.216,0.447,0.745HorizonColor=0.811,0.815,0.937FogColor=0.580,0.647,0.722SunSpecularColor=0.810,0.762,0.740HDRSunColor=1.000,1.000,0.900LightSrcModifier=1.1[Twilight1]SunHeight=0.008SunBrightness=0.20SunLightLevel=0.80SunRadiance=0.10TwilightLensFlare=1.0SunColor=0.980,0.490,0.220AmbientColor=0.201,0.201,0.214SkyColor=0.408,0.455,0.490HorizonColor=0.422,0.218,0.084FogColor=0.357,0.247,0.192SunSpecularColor=0.980,0.490,0.220HDRSunColor=1.000,0.500,0.250LightSrcModifier=2.5[Twilight2]SunHeight=-0.080SunBrightness=0.00SunLightLevel=0.35SunRadiance=0.10TwilightLensFlare=0.0SunColor=0.436,0.363,0.170AmbientColor=0.146,0.156,0.185SkyColor=0.278,0.282,0.353HorizonColor=0.220,0.150,0.200FogColor=0.043,0.056,0.092SunSpecularColor=0.436,0.363,0.170HDRSunColor=0.436,0.363,0.170LightSrcModifier=4.0[Night]SunHeight=-0.170SunBrightness=0.00SunLightLevel=0.00SunRadiance=0.0TwilightLensFlare=0.0SunColor=0.0000,0.000,0.000AmbientColor=0.062,0.113,0.254SkyColor=0.062,0.080,0.164HorizonColor=0.077,0.116,0.349FogColor=0.051,0.055,0.125SunSpecularColor=0.0000,0.000,0.000HDRSunColor=0.0000,0.000,0.000LightSrcModifier=4.0 of course replace just these strings I posted, leave all the others intact!!!
