Bloom Effect?

Bloom Effect?

In the options, located in effects, there are many options like show asteriods, show dust clouds, etc. But, what does show Bloom do? I have it selected off because I have no idea what it does.

Can somebody please help me with this and thank you.

I just figured that the Stardock label meant that kyro worked for Stardock. I didn't that I'd be teased about it.

Thanks for standing up for me Redd_V, and Sorceress.

I dunno, advanced graphics effects are the major reason why new games look better than old games, and such effects are less of a performance hit than adding polys. Even crap models and textures can be made to look good with enough shading, normal mapping, etc.

And tell me -- if we went back to the days of ASCII art, would you be happy or unhappy? I mean, it doesn't interfere with your gameplay!

ASCII art would interfere with the gameplay.

He does work for Stardock. That's why the responses to your post were eye-rollingly stupid.

I like ASCII art! Look at the badass battleship I built:
