Somebody get tenk11kamikaza a cup of tea or something. Far too excited. :P

Animated or fading overlays have been discussed in the past, but iirc they presented some problems, unfortunately. Damage based on block types paired with a better texture should prevent ships looking like they've got a case of chicken pox.

Both. The textures with transparent parts are created over a transparent canvas, this requires an editor that can handle alpha channels. Secondly, to render the blocks behind our transparent block we need to enable the option "Blendable" in the block editor. Hope that helps. Yea, perhaps...

Relief? Yea. Thats right.

Ah i see. Yea, there will be some variance in screen types.

possibly both! The texture compression is quite harsh. Blacks turn purple and green and greys get a little fuzzy. (turning this off really hurts performance though) It's less noisy that it's predecessor, but i do plan to fine tune things still where i can. Besides, what did you...

(This part of the convo should continue in the correct thread here really) Yea, it's probably not a catch all method, but it covers a majority of options and prevents things looking too goofy when mixed. It also helps with penta / tetra shapes. Having a busy pattern really messes up the...

:rolleyes: *rolls eyes*

No, no chairs in this version.

hahah, you're not the first to put samples into the game! :p Ah cool! How's the new PC? (No. it's not a bad thing!) Speaking of normal maps; this new overhaul will eventually get them, but will only have hull maps to start with. The whole texture overhaul is probably going to be...

No, this is the old hull. It has a subdivision, splitting it into 4 raised tiles each with a bolt through. This subdivision was the reason the "realistic" pack had a hard hull split into 4 tiles. The new hull removes that completely, leaving us with a single raised plate, bolted...

The front face of this one is built into a grey hull block, so it shouldn't look too out of place among hulls.

Lol. 08:30. Stop modules!

It's not complete, so there is nothing to make, learn or use yet in any stable or practical capacity. When it is ready and working, i'm sure there will be a news post explaining it all.

If i did or didn't, that's besides the point. I am currently using a laptop in a financial situation that unfortunately doesn't allow me to buy a powerful PC. Now lets swiftly get back on topic.

Glad you like them! I envy the new PC, i'm unable to play with what i create! :P Hulls are being redesigned! I'm trying my best to address all the feedback i've received, but as i'm certain you can appreciate, designing something to be tiled over 1 - 100,000 blocks and fit hundreds of...

Just shaved it off :(

Probably. But this is not a texture pack option nor controlled by textures. So there would be no using a "non animated pack". It's all in the config. If you want to disable them, try this;

Haha, i don't think that skeleton will be in the game :P The animated conduit pipes however... :D

SkullCollector Deco blocks have been done, only 1 of them has the emblem on it IIRC. As for cliche' sci fi iconography? It's an open sandbox game with no set lore. It's an incredibly bland logo that seems futuristic enough without hinting on to any specific culture, corporations...
