newbiemodder Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 Working on modeling a new area model for Korriban for TSL. Some of my textures were not being seen in game..really dark, not quite black..like in the shadows. Thought it was a texturing problem but then I noticed my auroralight tint was not being seen in game on my pc..he remained his normally lighting. The lighting in game appeared to by far off to one end of the 'room' causing shadows on the opposite side of the objects. Went into my .are file and change sunambientcolor and sundiffusecolor from 16777215 to zero. That is their value for the 701KOR.are file. Now everything is black except for my pc which is tinted to the correct color of my auroralights. I am able to run around w/i the room toward placeables and the dust is seen from the dirt. Any thoughts? Is there optimal values for sunambientcolor, sundiffusecolor or even dynambientcolor in the .are file. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
disbeliever Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 dynambientcolor:2958115 Sunambientcolor:2826240 sundiffusecolor:7740 Those are one of my area settings, try that. Also, make sure your auroralight has a big enough radius for its light to cover your area. Depending on the size of your area, it could ahve to be bumped up allot.

newbiemodder Posted January 6, 2010 Author Share Posted January 6, 2010 No luck. Dis' values just changed the tint of the area..same 'shadows'. I increased the radius of my 3 auroralights 5x..no effect. Funny thing. I removed the auroralights from my model completely and used my original .are values and still had the same exact lighting scheme as with the auroralights.

You can add more than one auruadlight, maybe try adding a few more around the area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
