phi6 -> [REL] Phisari's Smooth and Bright Stars Mod (4/16/2016 11:19:24 AM)
|
If you zoom into a star you may have noticed that its corona animations become very pixelated. This mod fixes that by adding a gaussian blur to the animation and also significantly brightens up the star by toning down most of the dark "sunspots". As a bonus I also added a similar edit to the black hole animations.
It is a shame that the game doesn't utilize the GPU, I think a bloom effect shader would make these star visuals look particularly good. Also it is unfortunate that we can't change star colours, I think the red and yellow stars look a little too "pastel" for my liking.
Admittedly this mod might not be to everyone's tastes, but I personally find zoomed in pixelated graphics quite annoying!
[ Mod Features ]
- Added gaussian blur to all 300 animated corona frames
- Increased star brightness
- Reduced contrast on sunspots so they are nearly invisible
