Well it has a limit of loading a certain number of textures. Could be a memory thing, in which case the bug wouldn't be there for people who have beefy gfx boards/chips. There seems to be a limit of 1000 textures and 500 models. Since they use for loops with those limits when loading the textures and models. Changing the size of the for loops didn't fix the problems though.
Yep ocean blocks are squares of solid color if they are on a world that has water that is. I'd like to get specularity working on the water, in which case anything but solid color blocks wouldn't look right.
OK - so I've spent a bit of time playing the beta version. First, the good stuff:
- Military targets are now present in target systems.
- Planets with an atmosphere have a 'glow' around them.
- Targetting tunnels are visible.
- Brown Dwarf Stars use a better texture map.
- Ittiz's planetary and star images look great in system maps.
- Videos work (if you have them).
I noticed a load of issues too with the new planetary textures. I realise this is still a work in progress, and I don't know if anything can be done to fix the issues. Do you want me to list the issues I found so you can take a look?
Also, given that the panel icons seem to work on the new update, shall we use Steve's cockpit mod as the default? If so, there's a few missing icons that need updating (camera, mining machine, and energy bomb). I can supply better looking icons for these.
Let me know, and thanks for all your hard work!
