      Is Star Made primarily a shipbuilding game?

      At the risk of sounding like a broken record: Every server will become unique. The game at its core will allow for as much sandbox in configs as it does in game. In the finished state pure PvP arenas will be possible with the flick of a switch and still modifiable. An ultra hardcore purest build...

      JVM Crash Error (Just bought the game)

      agreed. it's tempting to see if an ubuntu live distro might get SM up and running on 18999x. what intel chip is being used in the laptop? i'm using a bay trail t soc with an ivy bridge based gpu. if i had a way to easily run a windows 7 environment off of it i'd test that myself. as it is...

      JVM Crash Error (Just bought the game)

      In a LOT of cases Intel direct downloaded drivers will be blocked from installing because they have not been flagged by the manufacturer as compatible. An incredibly unhelpful dialog pops up and tells you to get drivers authorized by your vendor. The only work around is to extract the files from...

      FOR ALL AMD RADEON USERS READ THIS!

      A fun solution might be to bootcamp some flavor of ubuntu.

      Basic strategic view: easy fleet control.

      Well I'm just sayin' it'd be cool IF the NPCs worked that way. An issue I glossed over is how we'd even teach them the needed skill. I was thinking of sending them to a training computer and that machine pops up a dialog for training you can buy. That unlocks those abilities for training. The...

      stop effect

      Think of explosion passive as an electronic countermeasure. The splodie waves should make stop beams scatter but confusing the weapon effect with simulated hull concussions. The concussions cause signal ghosting and the beams bounce off and dissipate. I'm guessing but it seems like a cool way...

      StarMade no longer starts (log included) [0.189999]

      Go to Options and repair. Click Search Newest and click Download Normal. It'll double check for missing or screwy files. 60% of the time that's the cause. Then we go down the happy list of Java mismatches, outdated drivers and screwy settings like memory and graphics.

      How does it work? 1 ship & many players

      You mean NPCs? Not something that's possible just yet.

      Fragmented graphics, This was working before

      You nailed it. Retesting on a Vanilla config file. Aaaaaand: Yup. That's it. Confirmed working. Use Frame Buffer in Advance Settings must be set to ON.

      Basic strategic view: easy fleet control.

      I got cited. Woo. I'm famous on the cattubez. Fleet command and control. How Homeworld got it right: They just did, moving on. How could/should StarMade do it? ALL THE WAYS. Multiple ways to interact. StarMade has always given you more than one way to accomplish something. A healthy mix of...

      It seems this is affecting AMD and ATI users. My intel and nvidia test machines are not having this issue at all. These are different different symptoms with a related cause.

      Fragmented graphics, This was working before

      I'm at the point on one machine I can update to 14.14. Just to see if it's an issue with the newer driver.

      How can I effectively add to game memory?

      Mine is set to 128-1024-2048 and I have 8gb ram. Tho most times setting initial higher than 64 causes issues mine seems stable 90% of the time. If you need more physical ram in your system I'd recommend getting about 4gb. It's pretty cheap. If you have that much or more already then just tweak...

      Fragmented graphics, This was working before

      Can someone rollback their driver to version 14.12? So far no issues on that version. Try the game with occlusion culling ON. This _might_ work. However: When that fails we can move on to the 14.14 driver and disabling G_USE_VBO_MAP. It seems that setting defaults to true. On both systems using...

      support.amd.com quite honestly. i use raptr to help me manage my games aka AMD Gaming Evolved. i even use it on my nvidia based machine because it can optimize simpler games when i force them to use the intel gpu.

      Fragmented graphics, This was working before

      Doing the same myself. I skipped a driver update a few SM-updates back because of instability. AMD and Schine have both patched beyond that point so I'm making this cranky but lovable A6 update its everything. I have a backup of the old driver's installer so i can roll back if the newest driver...

      Fragmented graphics, This was working before

      We're seeing this with several AMD APUs. Reinstalling the current driver seems to be the best fix. I'm pulling two AMD based laptops out of the mothballs to look into this further. Anyone with useful info please chime in at any time.
