dsc/rendering issue...

Post #1by Rassilon » 23.02.2003, 17:48

Ive noticed while on the surface of various worlds using my addon with the ngc1999 nebula the nebula will disappear in certain places...Im not quite sure whats causing it as it doesnt seem to follow a pattern but its persistant to the area it diappears...

It does seem to happen when another 'planet' with atmosphere is presented....like a stars corona...The exposure of both the atmosphere/corona and current surface atmosphere of the planet positioned on clips out the nebula in the background...thus far

I am using a gf4ti4400 with semi-current drivers and windowsXP the thing is this isnt a driver related problem...its a rendering related problem...well atleast IMO it seems so...Ill update to the latest drivers and hope it doesnt make things worse...
I'm trying to teach the cavemen how to play scrabble, its uphill work. The only word they know is Uhh and they dont know how to spell it!

scratch the above...Its the upper atmosphere...when its rendered it cuts out the nebula in the background...not fade but disappears...I suppose that should happen and is part of chris's plan to make it where all galactic objects arent visible during the day...If this is the case is it possible for a more smooth transistion?
