To all SSC Station occupants

Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.

Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Relaxing & Inspiration

You devs, you deserve sometime to have some break ! So here it is a little something that could inspire you and relax you.

Okay okay, in fact this link is more to inspire you than relax you because as a programmer, this will certainly burst your brain.

Of course, there is a lot of API calls, but think it fit in 4096 bytes... That's incredible, simply... And here, sounds data (for the music track) and textures are procedural...

It could give you some idea if one day you want to give another look and feel in your planetary engine ! Or it could give idea for seasons changes...

For non windows user, there is a Youtube link.

For Windows 7, take the Windows 7 compatible version !

I bet that you have ever seen this demo. So I give you the link just in case...

I found out about Inigo Iquilez just a few days ago. What mindblowing work.

He's written tutorials about the making of Elevated and other demos of his; they're extremely helpful to a baby coder like me, and perhaps also to the Pioneer project.
