Description
New engine glows for ships with recessed engine areas.
Special thanks to collaboration and help from Steiner for the texture (edits by burntstrobe)
The amount of detail that goes into this project will never cease to amaze me.
agreed
It's like looking at the actual models from the movies!
Even better because you can command them :D
Awesome work as per the usual with this mod, Hell, I am looking forward to this more than I am Mass Effect Andromeda XD But one question I have for the ISD. The four "Yellow engines" are sublight right? And the three main "Blue engines" Are the hyperdrive engines? Or are they both different colours to look pretty?
Both the blue and yellow engines are sublight ones (main drives blue, aux ones yellow), they have those colors because in the movies, de small ones never where shown "online", and the mod team decided to show them this way.
Couldn't have explained it better myself.
Such lovely ambiance!
I do have a love for lighting effects, and this mod sure does appeal to that love of mine!
There is a lot of cruiser models out there, but this two one looks super cool, really detailed.
UPDATE:
so we tried hard to make this work the way we wanted it to... but sadly we discovered the the rendering engine of the alo viewer is different than the rendering engine of the alamo engine, and our beautiful engine glows do not work in the game.
It came down to 2 options: we could have the engine glows, or we could have ultra dark contrast shadows. We chose the shadows.
So while this idea looked great, a game made in 2005 was just not meant to have true environmental lighting.
