Shadows on Court

Fri Sep 24, 2021 3:20 am

Could someone point to me which parts of the stadium IFF file to edit to increase or decrease shadows on the court, particularly on the players. Have scoured the file over and over and can't figure it out. I've deduced it's probably within the arena.scne file?

I just want to circle back around and answer this question for anyone who may be looking for this information in the future. To change the shadowing and lighting of the players on the court, you need to adjust the specular .dds file, it's contained within the arena files.

gru_ibl_marker_specular.dds is what to look for.

Honestly I’m not really sure, it’s one of those like locked or layered dds files, I believe there is some tutorial out there to edit those. But I was able to copy shadowing from other courts that I liked.

How did you copy the shadowing from other courts?

Just rename the sXXX_floor_lightmap from an arena to another one. It should work.
