Star Textures... What Have You Done, Frontier?

Well, looks like we are in a serious state of DOOOOOOOOOM!!! Solar textures totally subimmersive. We are all going to die. Slow and painful. Thinking about writing an open letter to the forum, that might safe the day...

Just rage quit!.....

Seriously though people care about this game, that why passions sometimes get high on here, and after all it is a Forum and people are free to vent, praise, respond how they want, as long as it comes within the forum rules.

Will it stop me playing, no, will it annoy me every time i jump in Yes , will the world stop turning? doubt it, but hey FD can create some weird bugs, so just maybe, you never know ;)

As graphical glitches go, it's actually pretty, how shall I say....annoying(?) - especially as you have to look at a texture popping sun every time you jump into a new system. More so when you've played hundreds of hours with it not happening. But that said I guess some people aren't as put off by it as others.

Don't worry, they'll fix it. I mean they fixed the ancient SRV 45% fuel bug right ... checks ... oh for goodness sake, I QUIT! :p
 
I'm not seeing suns jumping, but when I arrive out of hyperspace they just look so ....... blurry compared with 2.2 .... like I'm viewing through a misted up screen.
 
I thought this was just a Beta Thing, and would never make the Live release, no i thought that's really bad, but maybe they need it that way to test other things in the beta and they will change it back to , well normal, But hey this bad made the Live version......WOW! That really really bad FD.

Things are very amateur in these betas and updates.
 
I found the same problem.

Initially when you jump into the system the star is so un-textured it looks like

and then as you orbit the star, the textures are jumping and popping all around.

And the CME textures are orientated to your ship camera direction, not to the star.
You can see this most obviously on Skardee 1.

This ^

The stars look terrible when you first arrive in a system. What was very attractive is now rubbish.
 
Had hoped for a hotfix to go in this morning with the server maintenance but nothings changed yet.

Pretty sure it needs a client fix as with the previous fix. Hope it arrives before the weekend. Ill be be away anyway, but kinda blows for those playing if the map stays bugged for a week. Will cause plenty of refunds too, what with the current sale...
