Default it looks like this:

Big, pixelated and ugly.IMO of course.

I resized the moon texture and put it onto my map and it looks much better, IMO.

Now please HT, it takes 2 mins to resize it.Sun and the moon are the ugliest part of this game atm, so large and unrealistic.

Croduh great work. Is that the map your making for the SEA? What setup is it? We need more AvA maps/setups.

Yes, looks a lot better.

The moon and the sun angular size is about 1/2 a degree. How big is AH field of view in default zoom? This would help you get the size correctly. The sun actually appears a little bigger because it saturates you eyes.

It's a game. Our big moon makes the game more romantic.
I'm so against this, it's not funny.. We're not getting some tiny invisible moon. We already lost night, that's enough.

I prefer the large moon because it's something to look at. In this part of the country a harvest moon is rare, at least in AH I can look at one.

Smaller moon is to less bright as less bright is to sleeping squeakers

Croduh is right.

Please make them smaller, not that worried about the moon but the Sun!

moot · « **Reply #13 on:** February 27, 2008, 06:51:38 AM »

I haven't checked, but IIRC the stars are accurately modeled. If Croduh were right the moon would have been the right size in the first place.

agreed sun and moon are waaay too cartoon big, looks rubbish.
