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.
 
 
*'''WINDOWS'''
 
*'''STEP 1'''
 
Locate the explosions folder from the "spiral knights" root folder
 
<pre>
 
...\spiral knights\rsrc\particle\explosion
 
</pre>
 
*'''STEP 2'''
 
Right click inside the explosion folder and create a new text document.  Now open the text document and copy pasta this text inside of it.
 
<pre>
 
REN rsrc\particle\explosion\bomb_areaexplosion.dat bomb_areaexplosion_orig.dat
 
copy /b rsrc\particle\explosion\sword_part_sealedstatus-circle.dat rsrc\particle\explosion\bomb_areaexplosion.dat
 
REN rsrc\particle\explosion\bomb_snarbarb.dat bomb_snarbarb_orig.dat
 
copy /b rsrc\particle\explosion\sword_part_sealedstatus-circle.dat rsrc\particle\explosion\bomb_snarbarb.dat

REN rsrc\particle\explosion\shard_blast.dat shard_blast_orig.dat
 
copy /b rsrc\particle\explosion\sword_part_sealedstatus-circle.dat rsrc\particle\explosion\shard_blast.dat
 
REN rsrc\particle\explosion\simple.dat simple_orig.dat
 
copy /b rsrc\particle\explosion\sword_part_sealedstatus-circle.dat rsrc\particle\explosion\simple.dat
 
REN rsrc\particle\explosion\simple_recolor.dat simple_recolor_orig.dat
 
copy /b rsrc\particle\explosion\sword_part_sealedstatus-circle.dat rsrc\particle\explosion\simple_recolor.dat
 
REN rsrc\particle\bullet\bullet_pulsar-scale.dat bullet_pulsar-scale_orig.dat

REN rsrc\particle\bullet\part_pulsar-wave.dat part_pulsar-wave_orig.dat
 
copy /b rsrc\particle\explosion\sword_part_sealedstatus-circle.dat rsrc\particle\bullet\part_pulsar-wave.dat
 
</pre>
 
 
*'''STEP 3'''
 
Now you need to go '''file/SAVE AS''' and name the file '''"bombfix.bat"''' (without quotes) and save it.
 
 
*'''STEP 4'''
 
Now run your newly created "bombfix.bat" file '''ONE TIME''' and it will swap out the large flashy screen-hindering blasts with what looks to be a simple breeze. 
 
 
*'''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!
 
 
*'''MAC USERS'''
 
Figure it out yourself.  I don't support MAC/Apple products ;) .

{{showhide|LOWER GRAPHICS (for low end computers)|content=
 
<pre>
 
*created 1/9/2012 by kcVIP
 
*Mail kcVIP in game if you have questions.
 
</pre>
 
Are you sick of getting pwned by lag or just want your game to run smoother?  I have a few minor tweaks you can do to your game to lighten up the load the game puts on your computer.
 
 
*'''STEP 1'''
 
Navigate to your root SK folder
 
 
*'''STEP 2'''
 
Go to these folders and simply add "ooo" to the end of each of the folder or file names names(ex "scheme_high test").

*'''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.
