Yea, i'd somewhat agree with this. As a game, the skill cap isn't mechanically high like Starcraft or Dota for example. However it takes time and patience. Some players like instant gratification, which is not something starmade offers in the first 20 minutes as of yet. The main problem...

Because it's about 1 year out of date! :D Let the old dog lie. He's had his summer years. Small (note; very small) clarity / quality of life changes are being made to the flight mode HUD. They are not indicative of the new GUI and simply use new sprites for the old system. It's...

I think Schemas words on this (originally on reddit) should probably be pasted here for all to see. It gives a pretty good overview of his thoughts and might save a repetitive conversation. http://www.reddit.com/r/Starmade/comments/2f07jc/this_is_how_planets_should_be_in_starmade/

Threads like this make me so glad we pushed for more colours / decorative blocks. Purple engine plumes! You guys rock.

They're sort of mixed in with these two threads currently if you wanted to amalgamate the discussion. http://starmadedock.net/threads/the-thread-o-lighting.3153/ http://starmadedock.net/threads/better-lights.3109/#post-47968

http://starmadedock.net/threads/kupus-thread.839/page-13#post-42081 Apart from that, there isn't any more info available. (It's still early days, things may change)

Oh? How impossibly strange. :P

haha, i saw that and wondered how you'd done it. Nice.

Ok cool. Preview is really easy to resize images with. Open the image, press 'Tools" > "Adjust Size". Make sure Scale Proportionately is ticked. It will even give you the new file size before the change is made so you can make sure they are under 1mb :)

@ToyotaSupra NVIDIA GeForce 9400M 256 MB. It's so old, it could just be a case of driver support or incompatible OS specific code, i don't know.

Typo of the day. :) @blurb357 If these images are for the forums, resizing them to 800 pixels wide (while constraining the proportions) and saving them as a jpeg will be well under 1mb. What are you using to resize them currently? Alternatively, upload them to Imgur and use the image...

It's not just intel graphics on OSX that can't use frame buffers. I have an nvidia card mine and they don't work. Schema is aware of the problem.

Myself and Bench have begun looking into it. This won't simply be a skin for the existing interface, we are planning a completely new UI. As such it has no ETA. Hopefully we can give more info / samples soon.

Well, thanks for the kind feedback all. :P I will look into allowing the jump modules to be rotated, but we currently have some rotation bugs and really don't want to add more to the list unless it's a needed feature / design (gate modules). Hopefully when they are 100% squashed, we can...

We have a large catalog of past (recent) events to warrant distrust and hidden agendas of corporations and governments using corporations. I know it sounds tin-foil crazy these days to suspect our governments and corp's have ulterior motives, but i can't help be cynical over the proposed use of...

The "it's not my country, why care" line is the sort of complacency that will usher in these changes. A line is being crossed, people should stand against it regardless of borders. Besides, the more awareness for the issue now will help people world wide understand the concept and fight for...

From what i understand, the limit is currently 2 types of maps at a time. (The diffuse sheets count as 1, the Normal sheets count as the other). This is due to performance and engine limits i think. Ha! We could be more efficient at packing more maps into our files, certainly...

Not currently no. There are a few posts on the previous pages discussing this if your curious though. TL;DR, It would require a specular map, which we currently don't have and can't implement due to a texture map limit.

Ah yea. I'm not sure on the best method to implement that texture trick. Last time i talked about it with Schema it was theoretically possible, but not a priority for either of us. Sounded like a pain in the butt iirc. A specular tweak of some sorts might become vanilla. The current...
