Summary: change planet2 default to not use bmp maps

Created: 2011–03–10 11:13

Status: Released

Category: Request

From: frankie

Version: 2.1

Released_In: 2.2

Description:

we have some planet2 layers that use bump maps to enhance detail, such as the earth clouds and the moon surface. This adds a lot of quality, but for machines with low video memory, it can take a toll.

Since the customization of planet2.cfg is not trivial, this is a request to change the default to be more performance friendly and let users who need bump mapping create their own planet2.cfg under userdata to specify bump map layers.

If someone adds a bmp layer, planet2 will automatically increase this to 1. Also added a comment to show how to use the bump mapped cloud shader if they want to switch to bump mapped clouds. @] |
