ok it works

this is what i actually wanted from the start...

thanks alot

ok there's one small problem
i placed the... "fake" sun at the same position as the original sun
3 things happen:
1. the lens flares of the original sun (hexagons in my case) are smaller than they should be
2. the lens flares of the fake sun are invisible
3. the lens glow of the original sun is invisible

trying to figure out what's the problem...

hmmm i never thought about this... thanks alot

any ideas how can this be done?

i'm just curious...is it possible to add more than one lens flare effect to a sun ? so that the game won't render just circles but hexagons too or other shapes...

ok i found out what i've been doing wrong... it works,thanks alot for the help

well,the thing is that i tried to replace the values but every time i did this, i ended up with an invisible planet after undocking...

ok... i've read the "Exe Hacks" thread and using hexplorer and the info from there, i "think" i found the part in the Freelancer.exe file that needs to be edited... there is just one problem: what do i need to replace that value with? ( 00247448 )

btw,thanks to everyone for the help

couldn't find anything on this subject... i found out that as you go further away from an object it becomes invisible. for example,i was at about 200k from a sun and few minutes later the sun's texture begins to shake and later the sun is completely invisible.same thing happened with a planet when going futher than 250k or something...

so how is it possible to make objects visible from large distances ?

any ideas how can starsphere.cmp files be edited?
