Nice set of features Littorio as you plan to have hangar,will the larger ship be able to carry fighters and boarding pods for attacking other ships/stations. ❓

Yes, they will contain any type of ship that is small enough to stay in the hangar, and hangar will be of any size

How is StarShipSim coming Littorio?

At this time i'm not developing as i'm trying to finish computer science university, i'm already a few year late 😳

Hi guys

I just discovered this game and it looks very intriguing. However, the download from spacesim central gives med crc error, file corrupted, when I try to unpack it. Is there somewhere else I can find this file? I really want to try it, it looks wonderful 🙂

I can't reupload it, for now use megaupload http://www.megaupload.com/?d=LVUOH808

I created a folder 'StarShipSim' for the download that is in the community section of the download area.

Downloading now...

And don't worry about being late with your exams, I was four years late and it went pretty well for me 🙂

Wow, just WOW!.. I just paused the game to write this... Imagine the stories that could be written around an engine like this! This has the aura of 'realistic' space combat, not some fancy shoot-em up stuff. This is what Starshatter and Battlecruiser should have done!! I love the nav display, the tactical display, the sheer amount of missiles...

Ok, you seriously need to finish this. With a little more, some scenarios and a story, you can find a publisher, fx one of the digital ones, like Matrix Games.

Notes:

The models are good, I especially like the Cobra.

The way you can modify hulls, design your own ships etc would prove extremely cool to modders.

You have done work on sensors it seem. All previous titles have lacked anything ressembling realistic sensors. With realistic sensors you can create a real tactical spacesim. Without sensors, its just another shoot em up.

Impressed: you have modelled entire star systems! Very nice.

Damage model, looks very sophisticated.

If you decide to move on with this project, I can help create scenarios and story. I'm not much of a programmer... 🙂

I'm happy you appreciate all the features 🙂

In a few months i will continue development

Hi geraldine,

Try to follow these steps :

d3dx9_43.dll

It is because you will be missing written documents.

Step 1. You may acquire http://www.d3dx9.net/download-missing-d3dx9_43-dll/ listed here.

Step 2. Substance that submit for your system32 in addition to process directory. Additionally place it with your syswow

Step 3. Browse through in your System32(32Bit OS) or maybe SyWOW64(64Bit The gw990) Directory.

Note: The venue with System32 or perhaps SyWOW64 is

C:Windows\System32 (If you work with 32Bit Windows 7)

C:\Windows\SysWOW64 (if you are using 64Bit House windows)

Step 4.Paste your d3dx9_43.dll in to that directory.

Step 5.Manage the action. It would deliver the results at this moment.

Hi Jean

Thanks for those tips! 🙂

this game deserves to be finished, whats the latest?

I have released a new version.

Now every armor section have hitpoints,thickness and material type and can be damaged indipendently.

Also added the "armor view" where it is displayed the status of the ship's armor.

Welcome back Littorio nice to see you still working on the game. :good:

Small Development Update

Today I implemented fuze delay for shells. They make the shell explode a set time after the impact.

They were really important in battleship combat in WW2 to make the shell explode in the soft core of the enemy ship and deliver maximum damage.

Interesting idea, would these shells be able to delivery a critical hit to a ship for example a hit in the main magazine which would destroy the ship.

Yes, that's the idea. Like the sinking of HMS Hood

Strange I was thinking about Hood when I wrote that.

Development Update

Now missiles can go through destroyed armor sections and hit directly internal components of the ships.

Also added support for 4 core (before was 3) but don't seem to improve performance 🙁 .

Development Update

In the latest release i have improved GUI. Windows are no longer full screen.

I have also added popup menu when right clicking on an object

and an help window

Great to see you back Littorio. The new GUI looks nice and clear to read and that ship model!!! :girlcrazy:

New version released: 13-09-2013

Changelog:

-New component type: Cargo Bay

-Added trade interface

I have added the "New Game" option on the main menu'. It is the beginning of the "sandbox" mode. For now there is just a space station to trade items back and forth.

To trade:

Impressive work Littorio 😎
