Removing hangar glow, "metalic" look or envmap

Re: removing hangar glow
Which hangar? It's some simple .msh hexediting, you need to remove the glow flag.

Re: removing hangar glow
You could remove the "-vertexlighting" from the .msh.option, that would have basically the same effect.

Re: removing hangar glow
removing vertex lighting made the hangar responsive to light but did not remove the glow how would i hex edit it like what lines would i change in order to remove the glow or at least dim it.

Re: removing hangar glow
Here's a copy of the mesh stripped of its "lightmap" flag, that should remove the glow from the large white "lips" of the hangar. To learn how to do this, look in the "how to enable transparency" topic in the FAQ.

Re: how to remove the "metalic" look or envmap

Re: how to remove the "metalic" look or envmap
would just removing the line envmap solve the problem?

Re: how to remove the "metalic" look or envmap
no, you have to modify these 6 bytes which controll the flag

Re: how to remove the "metalic" look or envmap
open the mesh, search for "ATRB", then afetr atrb you should see: 04 00 00 00 00 06
try to change it to: 04 00 00 00 00 00
(this is the first time i do something hex-related, so im not shure, if it works)
@culvar:thanks!

If you override all the ATRB values to 00 00 00 00 then nothing should be rendered except a flat texture.

Re: How to remove the "metalic" look or envmap
Don't do the first 04.
And didn't we just go over this in another topic? Glowmap, Lightmap, envmap, whatever it's all the same thing.
Especially if you actually read the topic I directed you to.
