      Hi all, unfortunately I'm probably are not going to make it. It's my sisters birthday on the 6th and she has plans, so I can't be at home at the time :( Still I will do my best to remotely administer the server.

      StarMade Dev Update: Progress in the Heat Part 2

      Hi, I'm working on some new Asteroid generation stuff at the moment. As you may have noticed, v0.075 is out, but I didn't write a release note yet. It's still pretty hot here unfortunately, but things are going better now that I kind of have acclimated to the weather. I already implemented 5...

      Found one!

      Wow, from the description you are giving, this is indeed a very strange bug. If you manage to replicate this bug again, could you send in a report after you closed the game (with the CrashAndBugRepoter.jar in the StarMade directory (it basically records the last session of starmade)). Again...

      Thanks for the notice. I accidentally uploaded a wrong release. Both issues should be fixed now. (I'm going to delete both comments in about one day, because they are in the wrong thread and would confuse new people reading through the forums)

      Starting up the game

      Hi, there should be a backup zip file in your StarMade directory from when you last updated the game. You can use the blueprint folder in there to overwrite, and restore the catalog. Sorry about this, 0.075 was a test release, but it shouldn't have corrupted you catalog. I'm going to look into...

      StarMade Dev Update: Progress in the Heat

      Sorry for the delay of new updates, my room is so hot at the moment, that I just can't as much work done, as I'd like. My only ventilator is used to keep my computer from resetting itself because of overheating, and I don't have any money to get AC :( But still there is some progress: New...

      *solved* Crash on attempt to start up

      I found the error (shield hit shader used a function incompatible with his graphics card). A fix is going to be released with the next update.

      Suggestion on the weapon system

      I like this concept very much! The only problem I see is, if a weapon has blocks, that got taken out, would it then automatically downgrade? What about if two groups are connected by one block, and that block that happens to get taken out (leaving two separate groups)? I think automatically...

      Suggestion on the weapon system

      I like the basic idea. I'm thinking about this. On one side, the effects should probably not dictate the shape of the weapon. On the other, the interface must be as easy to use as possible. I like Elladan's resolution, as it seems a nice compromise. There should be some kind of default...

      StarMade 0.074: Multi Player Bug Fixes

      Hello and welcome to StarMade, this is a small update that fixes some multi player bugs. Bug Fixes Updating segments will no longer flicker: When you shot a missile at a structure before, the segments went a way for a short time, which caused some ugly graphics. Also the code for...

      Fourth of July Playdate

      I'll be there. How many Europeans do we have here? If we are in the minority I would vote for making it a little later for American players.

      StarMade Dev Update: 0.073 Missile Fix

      Hi, the missile fix for 0.073 has now been released. Hopefully missiles will now work again. You can even fire missiles into other sectors, although they will only fly on if somebody is currently in that sector (you can also follow it). A sector change of a missile is indicated by an explosion...

      StarMade 0.073: Graphics Upgrade

      Hello and welcome to StarMade, this update brings a big update to the graphics, as well as fixes to long known bugs.

      StarMade Dev Update: Improved Graphics: Lighting

      I do not calculate lighting in a direct way, which would be: "for every vertex check it's distance to every light source" because this approach has 2 major disadvantages: It does not scale with many lightsources, and that approach does not include light coming in from the outside. What I do is...

      StarMade Dev Update: Nemesis Bug

      Twelve hours on this bug. I've known it for a long long time. It was hardly reproducible, and it kept messing up segment loading. Some of you might have already noticed that the camera sometimes jumps or flickers, when the game is started or when some other times. This often times caused a full...
