Besides the red sky and black everything else, is there something to see ?Dunno! Maybe so they could make stuff like this:
But yeah, Horizon couldn't do that for sure.
Nor that
That's so blurry I feel I need new glasses.
New Planet Tech is KILLER of Exploration (all terrain is tiling/repeating/not procedural/random)

Really? Are you blind? My own experience and this thread proves you so wrong...
We can go on for ages. I have so many buged, ugly, or just downgraded screenshot I don't think a single pages of this forum would be enough.
I think someones something is not during everything perhaps, and therefore something is not quite working right for them.

Methinks you should turn it off and on again...I think someones something is not during everything perhaps, and therefore something is not quite working right for them.

The person who designed this particular landscape texture tile was obviously so pleased with it that they've left their initials on it!
V.M.A
At least now we know who to blaim for alll this!

I had a circle shaped one, look kinda nice, if you are into fractals and stuff. Not at all if you are into ED exploration, but you can't have everything I guess.The person who designed this particular landscape texture tile was obviously so pleased with it that they've left their initials on it!

They better fix this before my new graphics card arrives
Well, if one fly in so rapidly that almost nothing can generate in time, some of the cogs under the bonnet are really laid bare... :7
(EDIT2: Although - do take note of how the UVs can be rotated locally - it's not strict orthogonality, although maybe it wasn't in Horizons either - never thougth to look for it. :7)
detail:
Same view some tens of seconds later (Same landscape? Really?! :7 (EDIT: Keep an eye out for that repeating pair of hill-and-straight-ridge, though)):

Where was that?
It takes racing around the planet and diving before the terrain can generate.
Can you stop talking about machine when it's terrain gen ? Your machine doesn't put texture where there isn't, and doesn't alter the planet gen on a whim.
Machine does all the hard work, and if it cannot keep up, well terrain gen WILL produce artifacts.
Maybe the minimum rig requirements in the store should specify i9-9900k, 64GB RAM and a GTX 4090, then?
That's what most of my Odyssey screens look like on ultra above recommended specs.
Its amazing what some shadows and light in sky do to cover things up. Like lipstick on a pig as the saying goes.
correction: i7-13370K, 128 GB RAM, RTX 5090-64 GB
The one I posted for Alec ? The coordinates and system is on the screenshot. You know where to look, right ?
The one Alec posted I don't know, you should ask Alec himself.
And please stop with the personal attack, something about the post not the poster, ok ?
No. If you have weird rainbows, then yes, your card is probably dying.
Otherwise, you'll get lower FPS while the system catch up, and if it's too difficult, you'll freeze and crash. Simple as that.
All the terrain building is done in Frontier, by the stellar forge. That's simply too complicated to do on the fly for a computer. You just put the texture and the mesh where the game tall you to put said stuff.
The texture you use is related to your setting. Low setting means lower rez texture, but it's the same. Also stuff like shadows.
Nope, have you ever checked how much bandwith Elite uses. If generation of systems were done unlocally you would see massive amounts of data transferred. In fact your computer does generate terrain from small seed on fly (Yes your own computer runs that "Stellar Forge", or lets say part of it. First rough generation happens while in hyperjump. And then on background while you fly nearer to your target. If your system cannot keep up, bad things happen. That certain post about fast flying producing artifacts at previous page, user jojo if I remember correct demonstrates that nicely.
It was the last post with a picture I posted before you did, just below Alec's. I thought you were refering to that. Otherwise I have no idea what you are referring to.
You are the one asking for coordinates, so it's up to you to tell me for what.
This post is about a little bit off topic, but people do not understand how much power modern gaming pc has under its hood. It can easily outperform many of the 90's supercomputers on certain tasks. You know those machines used to make weather forecasts, or simulate exploding nuclear weapon and so on...Tricks like generating entire planets on fly are achievable nowadays.
You don't say.
Maybe, maybe not. Frontier made the stellar forge in house, so it's moot anyway. It works some way, whether or not it could work differently is irrelevant.
And how is it related to the topic ?
