Episode 7 is up! Lighting is a bit better on this one. Link being added to original post too. Thanks for watching!

Nice one dude, I enjoyed episode 6 last night.Btw, RE star classes, yeah it was mentioned, but there's a really simple way to remember them and what they are, basically the classifications just mean the colour and they are in order of brightest to weakest:"Oh Be A Fine Girl, Kiss Me."O : brightest and hottest, purple/whiteB: blue/whiteA: whiteF: white/yellowG: our very own sun is a type G star, G stars are yellowish or sometimes greenish, our own star has a green tint, Plus its an example of how a star can emit a different colour of light primarily to the actual colour you see.K: orange cooler star, these have a cool fire-like terrain in PioneerM: coolest/coldest actual star class, red to orange, these can have cool terrains too.Oh yeah there's also stuff like the White dwarfs ( D class) and Brown dwarfs ( L or T class IIRC) However in Pioneer you will only see those two referred to be their name, not a letter.Im gonna watch episode 7 now :)Cheers.Edit: Oh look I thought I was being clever, but it turns out it already mentions that nice phrase on the wiki page Rob linked to

You found some really nice planets in ep6.
He did didn't he, it was nice to see the old Desert planet terrain in-use again on that hydrogen atmosphere world and actually looking right. (Thats among the oldest terrains we have)The sun-rise on the co2 world was rather spectacular too

Episode 7 does not disappoint Thats a lovely sun-rise at the end.

Glad you enjoyed it!Shameless plug: I've been uploading BF3 vids, give those a look if you're at all interested.

[bchimself]

Hey everyone,Sorry I havent posted any new vids recently. There has been some IRL shit going on. I am also going out of town for christmas for about a week, however I will have a laptop there to still play and record. Tonight I will be recording a bunch of episode so I can have a surplus to show you guys while I'm gone if I end up not being able to make the videos. The only downside to this is there will be a stretch of episodes where I don't have your input between shows. That's ok tho, at least there will be more vids up!Starting work now, first vid will be up in a few hours.

Haha, glad I could help end your night on a good point. It's 5am for me, I'm about to get on a plane. Hopefully I'll have a new video out by the end of the night (in my time zone).

I hope! I know they've already mentioned fixing the save compatibility between versions (just so i dont have to start over on the way to the center). TBH that would great to figure out, just dont rush yourselves. I'm still not far enough for it to matter, if a new version came out at this point I would just jump over to Edfala on the new game and continue on from there.It would be nice to get an idea of what the devs imagine the 'final product' of the game to be. Or are you going to keep it in development for as long you can?

Hey guys, sorry I havent been posting for a while. I am still out of town with my family for the holidays but I will be returning home on Thursday and I will be continuing my Let's Play.Patience!

Amazing series! I enjoyed them a lot. But we want more! :Duploading this in youtube is a great aportation to Pioneer, The devs can see the gamer/user point of view, and the youtube user can discover the potential and the virtues of this project. Great propaganda bchimself!Thanks for the mnemotechnic way of learning, finally, the star types, s2odan I have now them marked in my memory Greetings

[Gfamad]

I've started to watch you serie and I found it cool. It's a kind of trip that we can follow and that's very cool. I hope you will reach the center of the universe !

We were just talking about you in IRC, wondering if you're dead. Are you doing ok?

Lol, I'm not dead but real life has been kicking me in the ass recently. I started filming of two episodes this week but had to scrap them due to mistakes. I will be starting again tonight [hopefully].

Ep 9 up, next one in progress.

[bchimself]

Episode 10 is up, watch out for the glitchy arphi star!

[Brianetta]

Looks like Arphi's white dwarf is somewhere inside the primary M class star. That might explain the glitches and the crashes when the white dwarf is selected as an autopilot destination.
