Defense field lods

[Krnt]

Hi I recently made a pretty nice effect for the defensefield and It seems to be working nicely,
but I found a problem. The effect seems to has a lod change after 2000 meters from the camera, and I created a lod file for it:

defensefield_generic.lua
defensefield_generic_lod.lua

It didn't work, then created an fxlod file in the "Data\art\fxlod" folder

defensefield_generic.lod

But didn't work either.

Effect at less than 2000m:


Effect farther:

NOTE: The carrier shown is just for testing purposes.

That's a really cool effect, i would help if i could but i don't know anything about that.

Thanks jk,
I think it is hardcoded, but I still going to wait If someone has overcome this in the past.

Try asking the guys from the Star Trek:Continuum mod as they have got their star trek shields to work and they might be able to help you with your problem.
