What i did whas
- Create Inverted Sphere
- Texture it with some nice nebula texture.
- Generate a light source from a point in the sphere
- Use the light source to create flares
- Parent the inverted sphere to the camera
- Create a starfield / space debris (not bound to camera)
- Move player trough the space but due to the sphere beeing parented to the cam it looks like ur standing still...but moving trough the stars says otherwise.. :S
also you know when you move the flares move as well (in the right direction) well homeworks has that as well only not with flares but with it's background scenery... it has a great effect. My main pc broke so i don't have my sources i'll try and rewrite soon (i lose my 180 GB HD/My GFORCE/My Monitor) the pc overheated and melted everything... 3/5 fans were defective...
