I understand that Schema is German, so meters is what we're working with, but in this situation I feel like it's a terribly inconvenient measurement for voxels Starmade. Mainly because of astronaut size. 2-block-tall astrotoons look ridiculous because the 1-meter minimum resolution of their...

Was just thinking how nice it would be if Wormholes were more visible and decorative to adjacent systems, and remembered they are working on universe changes at this very moment. The wormhole looks... tiny from the sector adjacent to the system boundary, but the wormhole should probably be...

So I have been testing out the new weapon systems and was working on building a main cannon for one of my WIP. I placed down a 5x5 square of beam blocks, set the center most one as main emitter, and tested it out hoping that the beam would be bigger than just one block. However, it seems that at...

Hiya. I recently caught wind of the new update and thought I should give it a spin! Unfortunately, the game seems to disagree with my enthusiasm for the weapons overhaul. Whether in Single Player or Multiplayer, just before the game is finished loading I get hit with this error. I...

I love all the beautiful flare effects - please don't lose these! But. It would be very helpful to have a hotkey for a reducing or muting the flare effect on the fly. Because I enjoy it most of the time, but then I try to mine a roid near a star.... between the star and my own beams half of my...

To my supprise in latest official release fast shooting with cannon and hitting something causes game to freeze for 1-2seconds. If multiple shots are being shot the effect is more pronounced. Advices? Its either debris rendering ? (How can I turn it off) or the damage model for entities is...

Everytime the game loads to 100% it will crash and display an error saying... RuntimeException org.schema.schine.graphicsengine.shader.ShaderException: data//shader/cube/quads13/shadowcube.vsh ERROR: 0:1: " : version '130' is not supported I use a Macbook Pro 2012 15' with an Intel Iris Pro...

Problem 1 : We have factions, but . . . they all look similar - most ships are well, ship shaped - engine at the back, glass cockpit, buttons and doors, they all look the same throughout the endless universe. Problem 2 : I've ideas of making melee kraken ships, plant based ships, crystalline...

Hi guys, just a quick question: the preview of the block (for rotation) in advanced build mode shows no texture for me (which often makes it hard to see which way the block is facing), see picture below: Is this normal behaviour or do I change a setting anywhere? Thanks a lot Polarius

For some reason, my new laptop isn't running StarMade very well. It's a fairly powerful PC, having 16GBs of RAM, but for some reason, the framerate rarely exceeds 40 FPS and often tanks as low as single digits. I dialed back the settings (lowered render distance, texture pack set at 64x64...

figured out How to stop this on my HP Laptop. i have an HP 15 (Core I3) with a Intel HD5500 Graohics card, to get this crash to stop you need to turn antialiasing off (to O) that should stop it if you had the same issues as i did. (getting this crash every time you were trying to build anything...

Pretty simple idea for a simple annoyance. On the map the options for what to display should either be persistant meaning their values stay the same when logging back into a server. Or at the very least make the default for "faction territory" to be off. I don't see much use for it normally...

Hi, Is anyone else having issues where they cannot use the bloom effect, due to graphics card issues? Every time I try to use or toggle the option it gives me a RuntimeException, here is the what it says. Error: Frame Buffer needed for this effect is not supported on this graphics card If...

Alright, Citizens, this has been a long-awaited update! With the (kind of) recent changes to beam graphics to use the fancy screenspace bloom effect, and fixes to how beams are drawn, I decided to revisit this old mod of mine. Here's a short list of changes from default beams: Beams have...

Create option to choose shaders like in "The Forest"; Block reflection; Moving Stars in background; Some stars explosions in background; DOF (Depth of field); Penetration of light through glass; 3D Blocks like button; Some things from GLSL shaders mod (minecraft); The destruction of the ship by...

What do I mean? The idea of different weapon skins and sprites is to firstly: Make the weapons identifiable and the sprites easier to identify and secondly: make the shooting seem familiar for new players who might play more popular FPS game like CoD and lastly: giving the player a sense of...

I've been attempting to play the game for awhile now but no matter how I change the settings around, planets keep getting this weird graphical bug. As I get closer, it becomes a bigger, dark sphere, up until I pass through it.

Good afternoon! I'm in the process of building quite the ship. about 800m wide, 700m tall, and a bit over 2km long. I'm currently running this game on max settings. even going in advanced settings, and maxing everything out, it still doesn't load the entire ship, just so many blocks in every...
