What HAPPEND ?!!? it looks so f-ing nice but its only me or others see me like this?

It is likely only you who can see it - some of your texture files will be corrupted/missing. There was a similar situation reported in this thread.
Although no solution to that was given, I'd recommend re-downloading any graphics mods you have, then re-install Discovery.

Well those are nice pictures and all, but you haven't actually said what happened, and if there is actually a problem, or whether you're just making a nice +1 thread for cool 4.86 ships.

Are those before and after pictures, and in which order are they?

Edit: Also, I see no evidence of texture corruption in either picture. The lighting effects on the AI Drone/Cruiser are separate from the actual "hard" model; there are special light hardpoints placed to get the cool effects.

There was a sig here, once.

So i tried to repimp the cruiser to mount LargePurpleSource as the doking lights(the first 4 frontal hardpoints and probably the eyes of the ship) the wierd thing is that it behaves realistic 100%...with docking lights on (this are the lights making the whole frontal casing of the ship glow purple) everithing turns purple as i tend to get near to it...station/npc/players...its lights pointing a flashlight at a wall but its not white its pink...i really dont see and problem here but when i turned it on it made me drool

And it isnt some temporari glitch because ir estarted the pc 3 times.But when i relog and undock it only has Green+purple(a bright llight purple) in front...but when i deactive the doking lights and turn them on again....BOOM...its bright as a purple cristmas tree

Onestly i like it very very much....mabe using my little own glitch we can made a new pimpship mode?

Like i said...it tends to leave a purple shoddow to anithing that it gets near the front....very realistic

This pictures are in order so please watch them from first to last...it represents that reflection effect i was talking about.



p/s:I am not posting this to showoff "cool bugs of 4.86"....i really want to know what caused this and if it is repeatable.I use freelancer + hamidamari sound mod and hunors star sphere

Oh, then it's simple. Source lights and Strobes on docking light hardpoints create an (awesome) lighting effect that few people knew of before it was posted about in some thread a few weeks ago. It was there all along, but no one ever figured it out.

So yeah, those sources you have on your docking lights are illuminating your ship and anything else in the lighting cone.

I asked couple of friends to tell me what they are seeing but none what so ever sees what i am seeing

Now i know why people complained about my banshee with frontal fast large white strobes and sources

[SparkyRailgun]

That's because the lights are client based.
