      Ye Olde Dave

      Nice armor. Lovely chain mail you have there, and the embellishments are just divine. So, when's the next Crusade? (Not the community member, the military campaigns.)

      Lantean Empire SKIN

      Just thought I'd jump in to say that my title of "Lord-King of Atlantis" does NOT refer to the Atlantis from Stargate, it refers to the original Greek mythological one. So I approve of this. :) Just be aware that you'll have plenty of competition for connection with the Stargate city-ship...

      A mod to move the ship core

      Man, someone's feeling pessimistic. I bet you'll be quite surprised how much will be here within a year.

      low res tex pack

      I've been replaying Homeworld 2 lately, actually. Always nice to be able to turn up the graphics to absolute maximum and have a perfect framerate... I love playing older games for that reason. I've been quite tempted to try modding it, but there don't seem to be simple and effective enough...

      StarMade Help Center

      Actually, the word "octopi" is a false etymology. Octopi would be correct if the word came to English through Latin, but octopus came to English through Greek. Therefore you would use the Greek plural, which would make it "octopodes". Since most people would recognize and understand the Latin...

      Skin request thread.

      Yup, still on my mind. Was thinking about it today, actually. Though I was thinking about if it would make an awesome StarCraft 2 unit, haha. Since it would best fit StarMade floating even in gravity (to better match the height of the hitbox) and would look good in StarCraft 2 that way as well...

      low res tex pack

      Yaaaay Homeworld! I love that game! But on a more related note, low-res textures are indeed beneficial for performance and aren't necessarily due to the desire of a pixel aesthetic. I'd be good if StarMade could support smaller textures for those who want/need them. (Though admittedly, if you...

      Name that Mineral!

      Agreed. Anything too realistic doesn't fit with the fictional physics and universe in StarMade and implies things that may or may not be true, (naming red Iron implies red is used for things like hull, which is limiting to us as developers or confusing to players) while naming them anything...

      Ssshhh. We don't talk about the "old" textures. *shudders*

      The Face of Mankind OB celebration

      Considering in StarMade the only current "faction" so to speak is the Trading Guild (pirates don't count), and my thought for default StarMade lore (which players can feel free to ignore or overwrite) has the primary government of the rest of the galaxy simply going by "The Galactic Federation"...

      The Face of Mankind OB celebration

      Hmm, seems odd. I know I designed the model to be able to be reduced to half resolution (carefully putting everything in a 2x2 pixel grid) as well as assumed people could make the skins larger as well. But the way it interfaces with the game is code, not directly under my control. So I'm not...

      The Face of Mankind OB celebration

      Dear god, what did you do to that man's face? Err... pardon me, that was quite rude, haha. :oops: So uh, ahem, to say that in a way which offers more constructive criticism, the facial proportions are off. The actual face is quite nice (though I'm assuming it's a photo), but look into facial...

      Name that Mineral!

      Feel free to take yellow. Nice color, but not one I feel particularly attached to. Go forth and become Lord of the Yellow. (And yeah, I knew you were joking, just as my response was intentionally over-the-top and silly.) As for creature stuff, you know where to send it. ;) Inspiration can come...

      [Blueprint Viewer] - StarOS BPViewer

      In the future, I think WIP third-part software should be in the third-party software forum, once actual "mods" start taking off and the section gets busy. The WIP forum is technically "WIP mods". But for now, don't see any need to move it. It might actually be useful right now to co-opt the WIP...

      Name that Mineral!

      Well, you named yourself AND the ore after Luna, not the ore after yourself. So egotistical isn't exactly the right word. I had already suggested the use of "luna" in the inspiration of blue colors. I do like blue/moon symbolism. I think white/moon symbolism doesn't quite fit... I don't think of...

      Boarding Dave

      I really need to do a good, detailed, comprehensive tutorial on skinning, both about what goes where and the concepts that need to be kept in mind while skinning for Dave. Someday. When I can do it well enough to satisfy my perfectionist tendencies.

      A Mod that changes beam colors.

      As I said in the Modding and You thread in the main Mods forum, "It is my personal hope that we can make StarMade as moddable as possible. If you wish to live out your fantasies in space, I want to give you that opportunity." In my eye, StarMade isn't about giving you our vision of a sci-fi...

      Faction Reboot

      I'd like to remind people that StarMade is still in alpha, and many features are still missing. The current game is a sandbox; there isn't really much "game" there. As things progress, more actual "game" will be present, giving you things to do and challenges/situations to overcome. (Though...

      Commander Shepard (BroShep v.2)

      Clearly you weren't planning ahead enough! (Though it kinda requires looking up tips on how to get the best results, which removes part of the point of the game (dealing with the consequences of your decisions) and involves spoilers. But I care about the characters so much I'm willing to accept...

      Captain Kirk & Red-Shirt Dave

      If you replace the default Dave skin with this skin, your NPCs (and any player without a skin) would appear as red shirts. To do this, navigate to "StarMade\data\models\character" in your StarMade directory, then replace the files "playertex.png", "playertex_em.png", "playerhelm.png" and...
