@crux_72, I'd really like to see a screenshot, and the modified DDS file, of the skybox problems that you've been having.
It's very difficult to diagnose something like that from a textual description.

Dude you just necro-posted a thread from 6 years ago!?!

<t>The faces have never bothered me. Also I think that 2D is the correct approach for us.<br/>
I've worked on projects where we wanted 3D customisable avatars and it was a huge amount of work for a *team* of people for almost 3 years!<br/>

Simpler systems use 2D texture changes on more basic ...

Shodan did you have any luck with this?

Ignore, apparently to get rid of saved drafts now you MUST post them?

<t>Shodan the config.ini / output.txt and opengl.txt files are to be found in your "/My Documents/Pioneer/" folder that we create when you run the game.It the Gas Giant is grey then it sounds like a bug I've seen recently on my laptop where the GPU texture generation fails for an unknown reason ...

thus i suspect it wasn't his graphic card or a opengl error (how could that be opengl is if you use the same version 100% the same on every windows driven machine) it was this wrong behave of the blobs)..<br/>

Because that isn't how OpenGL works. Each vendor (_GPU maker ...

Thanks!

I haven't tried to register/allow a user myself, so I'm just posting about it on IRC to hopefully help you out.

Anyway, good luck with the Pheonix project

<t>Ok I checked, that change shouldn't produce any difference when there's a star, but it will when there isn't a star.Basically that comment means that its the end of the section that deals with lighting "#else NUM_LIGHTS > 0" so that code isn't used on planets with a star.*phew* glad that's the ...

Thanks Gernot I'll take a look at the code and see if it makes a difference on ours

Hi Gernot,What is the shading change you made for planets?I want to make sure that we're not doing something strange in Pioneer too.

<t>We tested it on the old hardware that we have available, I asked several people to test it on IRC too, but that's not a very exhaustive list despite my hardware buying habits!It should run on the nVidia GeForce 7600 as that's an OpenGL 2.1 compatible card, indeed DirectX 9.0c == OpenGL 2.1, it ...

Hey Geraldine, we've got new builds for Linux, OSX and Windows out now

<r>Jumpdrive (formerly Paragon) is separate from us. They forked the code a couple of years ago and developed a game atop our engine, which is fine we've benefitted from some of the code they wrote.We don't take any money for what we do, just playing, giving feedback and getting involved in the ...

<r>First of all thanks for the kind words! <EMOJI seq="1f603" tseq="1f603">:smiley:</EMOJI>Whilst we have some support for controllers it's honestly not quite up to scratch, also it's more a case of having support for flight using a controller rather than the entire game.The UI and other parts of ...

<r>That's ok, now I've taken ages to reply! <EMOJI seq="1f4ab" tseq="1f4ab">:dizzy:</EMOJI>We've (pioneer) started the switch to IMGUI which is interesting and comes with a number of backends for different renderers so it's quick and easy to try out.I look forward to seeing what you get done ...

Hey Nevil, any updates on this? I'm still eagerly awaiting seeing more of this terrain stuff
