Title: Change the value at this the In-System-Warp visual effect appears
Post by: R-TEAM on January 10, 2011, 02:06:00 AM
Hi,

it is possible to change the speed at which the engine generate the in-system-warp visual
effect ?
Have latest KM and readjust the ship speed/turning settings to more cannon - but have now
the problem that with max impuls speed the visual in-system-warp effect is generatet ...
So i musst change (if possible) the speed value for this to an higher value ...

Regards

Hi,

uh - mhhh - have imho not seen a difference (or cant remember ......)
Have vanilla BC only one time played (after install to test it is running o.k. ...) and then installed
KB2009 and then 2010.2 ... (and last new DS9FX ...)
Not all time GC?s mutator is activatet (for quick tests i dont need it ..) but the effect is (IMHO)
all time the same.It comes at default only by in-system-warp with speed ~40000 ....
But the effect self apear at lower speed.And this i need to change.

If this 2 values to change i can try both and see which i need.....

I'm sorry to be a bearer of bad news lol But IIRC Galaxy Charts overrides AI intercept (not sure if it's dependent on the mutator) so... this is USS Frontier's mod and is best to ask him. At least ask for confirmation if Galaxy Charts AI overrides are dependent on the mutator. Until I have that information I will only be misleading you.

Hi,

have already found scripts/AI/PlainAI/intercept and GC relatet scripts/Custom/GalaxyCharts/WarpIntercept.
It looks the GC mutator disables the GC script (no .pyc file was compiled after change from the python file).
But it looks to its dont help me - cant found the value to change the treshold at which the in-system-warp effect appear ... (and have not sucesfull managed to change the in-system-warp speed to try if this relatet to the treshold ..... [set the speed higher] )

mhhhh - maybe the funktion pShip.InSystemWarp is hardcoded and cant changed ??
btw.- both files look in big parts indentical so it was no problem to found the same lines ...

It sounds to me like you're talking about Motion Blur. You can turn that off in the graphics settings.

lol Forgot to tell you that I did a quick search of the stock scripts but you've already found out. This can however be changed via mod script something along the lines:
