Remove "magic" effects ?

Hello,

How can I remove the "magic" effects in Sins ? I'm talking about the bigs halos, the repair clouds or the huge "arcane explosion" around ships, most of the times triggered by special skills. This is unrealistic, it prevent me from seeing what the hell is going on the in the battle and it slows down the game a LOT when there is 2000+ ships in the battle all doing their little magic.

Thanks.

You could not.

You should be able to remove the effects from abilities, but it would modify the file checksums so it would not be compatible with the vanilla files.

It isn't difficult to do by itself, but you'd need some modding know-how. If you're still interested, I can help get you started. ;)

Deleting effects does nothing to the checsums noob.

 

Just removing the presentaion stuff and not touching the core dont effect the checsums.

Try it.

To remove the effects from abilities, you have to modify the ability files themselves.
