Nice work! The shading / dirt pass really improved these 10 fold!

The darker purple crystal will be tweaked again to better fill the role of a black crystal. Like Rimmer said :) Yes, item ID's are currently a finite resource. We're hardly scraping the barrel, but it is something we have to consider when adding blocks. I'm a huge fan of decorative...

Good job, subbed.

A few people have been asking how to get a little more performance or FPS out of their settings, It's going to take a little trial and error, but there are some recent graphical features that when turned off will seriously improve frame-rates for less powerful machines. As you are on OSX...

Could you try toggling Caps Lock and testing again please?

Ah, i see. Time to sleep! -__- Yea, i imagine certain factions will favour different weapon / system styles overall. Having a choice of big or bigger was pretty detrimental to gameplay. It created a linear meta-game revolving around (almost only) gigantism. Newer weapons, especially...

The new weapon update discourages exactly this.

Is this close to what you mean?

That's a direct copy and paste of the original. You can read about the rollback here, and keep up to date with website news on the main forum homepage news feed here, or the sub-forum called "Website News" here.

Haha, no problem der_scheme, i'll see it resolved and closed when it goes live. For now, bigfootcz and anyone else experience the same problem, please use this fix; https://www.dropbox.com/s/p8hvo7xhgvlqgkp/Pixel.zip It's the fully fixed texture pack. Edit; moved to 'game support'...

Thanks and sorry! It seems one of the files was saved in the wrong bit depth, also i think an older version of the t000 mistakenly being used. When updating the 'overdrive effect block' texture a few files got muddeled between myself and schema. I'm fixing the pixel pack as i type...

The rollback took out a few posts here unfortunately.. Like we were saying, you'd need a program that can handle alpha channels to create things like glass, water, hanging lights and plants. Der_scheme has mentioned GIMP and Thadius faren has recommended Pixlr. Both seem more than capable...

Please use the edit feature to avoid double posting in quick successions. Regardless of opinions on how this will effect gameplay or levels of enjoyment; there are technical problems to having instanced planets. Entry / Exit points being the main one. While i couldn't really comment on...

Good start! I look forward to seeing more.

What settings are you turning down / off? Have you recently installed windows 8.1? Recent updates have added a few demanding graphical additions. Turning off procedural backgrounds, normal mapping, selecting the "pixel" texture pack and disabling backgrounds has been pretty effective...

I particularly like the detailing on the Earth's continents. Great work, the lens flares are a terrific addition. Such talent for someone as young as yourself! 'Star-gate' is also my favourite Abrams movie.

Happy Birthday :D !!

I'll try and help with some of them, apologies if i mention anything you already knew. In the first launcher window under 'options' we can adjust the amount of RAM allocated to Starmade. Remember to leave enough RAM free for your OS and background applications. (64bit Java is probably...

I've been doing some reading on your card / drivers, apparently the card is now considered legacy and unsupported. It's likely a new 64bit driver for windows 8.1 won't be released. Rolling back to a earlier version of windows seems to be the most likely fix for this. :(

This is possibly a driver issue when using OpenGL. Have you updated your graphics driver recently? It could also be because it's an old / incompatible graphics chip. Could you tell us what it is?
