Would it be Possible to Added pixel glows as a Mod? because in the long run this would be a better option instead of trying to get data to readded this to the .exe

The only way I think this would be possible, it would be adding an artificial trail of glowy pixels, but that would be laggy.

What? Are you giving me an order?
It would be a lot of work, it WOULDN'T look good, and it would be laggy.

How could that be number one?

That was the Reasoning why we should make a mod, that would allow modders to make mods that can take advanage of this but not excessively to the point people cannot run it.

Yes you do. Buggy means it wont work half the time, laggy means the game freezes. You care.

Obey me! NOW :twisted:

Nonsequitorian, Sims_Doc, please, stay calm and focused.

I consider it viable as a game conversion, modifying Base.rte,
just like Crow did some time ago adding some changes to main
cortex command looking, reducing color and increasing realism.

It would require a version per build and some knowledge to modify engine
files to make pixel glows work like they did, but its not that impossible :???:

Modifying the engine is illegal, this was discussed before. Coding it in lua to work anywhere near as 'smoothly' as it did before is impossible.

Case closed.

Right let's start over again. I'm going to request that you all refrain from hitting other members over the head with your big grammar sticks, and stay on topic.

FTL neutrino speaking over there.

And according to all what you read in the thread, I doubt someone will.
