Started on some moon skins:-



Also took a look at sun.tga. interesting that if it's tinted you only see the result in reflections.

These are just a 1st shot at these . may do some moon textures with less contrast

check -test_moon0017.tga against moon0017.tga. (most commonly used in QMB maps)

"desert online" seems to use0014

Sun textures are just for fun - gold and spectrum tints
disable folder with "-" if not required. or just delete.

0027 is new moon (all black) substitute 0017 (most maps) , though this will not remove

lighting effects (Fireball is working on that)

Oil slick?

Oh boy, this is interesting

I wonder if the water reflections can be made wider too? I was up north in Australia recently and was amazed at the broadness of the dazzle effect when flying over water. The Il-2 effect is like a little shiny blob by comparison.

Wider?? A little, but not much.

Corrected moon , Il2 flips the tga (and I had a pic from a mirror telescope to boot)



Now can we have a cockpit and 750 gunner seats for this? :lol:

NEVER underestimate the power of the DARK SIDE....mwahahahahaa!!!

Damn... Though I prefer the historic stuff, I would absolutely love to have a second moon skinned as a Death Star. It would be a great in game joke. 8)

Sorry if this is a bit OT, but has anyone been working on making nights darker? It seems like there's always a corona on one side or a full moon on the other when I play

Hey why not go the whole way and make a moon map so that we can fly some of our 1946 UFO's in their proper environment?

Historically accurate too?




@ Checkyersix see edit at 1st post ^ :wink:


Beta skins on DL link

Q. Would it be useful to do a set for Mapmakers and developers with the number showing on the skin?

Some map load.ini files show different skins for the moon, but for the main part all I see displayed is moon0017.tga (maybe this is only in FMB, but with 28 skins to check out, and how many maps? - could take a while)

In the load.ini of any given map, set DECLIN = 1 and that will remove the permanent sunsets. :wink:

This is great, a must have. Thank you Fisneaky.

Can this go to the main downloads?
