| − | Sick of all the pretty lights when using bombs? Do bombers bomb flashes annoy the ever living daylights out of you? Well it just so happens that I can fix that. Follow these simple instructions and remove that annoying bright flash from Nitronome, the obnoxious spikes from DBB, and just about every large flash bomb.

| − | *'''STEP 5'''
| |
| − | If you did this while SK was running, close SK and relaunch it. The settings will take place, and it will remove that awful brightness from blast bombs. Enjoy!

| − | *'''STEP 1'''
| |
| − | Navigate to your root SK folder
| |
| − |
| |
| − | *'''STEP 2'''

| − | *'''STEP 3'''
| |
| − | If you made these changes while SK was running, restart SK to get the reduction in graphics. You can experiment by removing files from the game that only add a little bit of glamor to the game, that don't really do much to the game mechanics to enhance your gameplay on a low end machine.
