More problems with rings...

Post #1by Rassilon » 23.10.2002, 08:45

This is on a standard planet...For some reason now the rings are appearing behind the planet at points...The difference here is there is asteroids in the rings...

Hey Rass,
I too have noticed a ring odity here and there. I did a screen cap of my volcanic moon from the back side and was suprised to see a ring shadow on the backside of the gas giant. If you look in my gallery you can see the image. I havn't yet come across your problem though.

The ring shadow problem is similar to the eclipse shadow problem. It only happens when ambient light is enabled (i.e. something other than 'none') I do think I finally have a fix for it, however.
