flaillomanz Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 I have seen screenshots and vaguely recall a post I cannot seem to find on a special feature of Patched Conics. Apparently, you can edit a value in one of the games' files, and it'll change the "mode" patched conics runs in. Higher numbers made for some very... interesting... screenshots.Anyhow, which file and what value is that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endeavour Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Conics_Patch_Draw_Mode will change the way the orbits are draw. 3 and 1 are the only useful ones.Conics_Patch_Limit will change how many orbits ahead it will predict. I highly recommend changing this to at least 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
semininja Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Bear in mind that accuracy is lost fairly quickly starting at about the third patch, so any more than that cannot be relied upon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ziff Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 Skip to the 2.45 mark, he explains what each conics draw mode does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
