Where it's happend (ship in shade) - at some base or in space?
At certain bases it happends - not my fault, it's light sourse orientation. Especially this can be noticed when looking at cockpit - down side dark, up side light. Several TIE's use two different textures for cockpit.
In space it's quite realistic - the space is dark you know ...
, the light comes from star, so it's normal. Anyway, this can be fixed - open the system file and find the ambient section. Let say Freeport7 system - FP7_system.ini, it's quite dark. Change the
[Ambient
color = 30, 30, 30
to
color = 60, 60, 60
That's all.
Regarding beams:
1. speed for beams is set to 1600 if I'm not mistaken. It's quite high but it's realistic. TIE weapons are VERY fast, check the movies
This effect (invisibility or partial invisibility) can be seen in clouds, in open (clean) space it works fine.
2. it depends on weapon position - TIE Reaper have the longest wings and guns are at the edge.
Anyway, clouds is the problem. I hate clouds
Next project will be a Homeworld2 TC (no storyline, removing old systems, adding new systems) - so, no damn clouds.
