Irrlicht Engine

Thanks for the support folks. We're working hard on getting the game to where it ought've been at release.

For those interested, Artem Bank is putting up the Star Ruler soundtrack over at Bandcamp and will be streaming it all the way to the game's release (and adding tracks as they make it into the game). They're not all quite up yet (it's a work in progress) but they ought to be very soon. Feel free to ...

Star Ruler is now available for Pre-Order through GamersGate . Whenever you pre-order the game, you should receive a serial key; if you include that serial when you apply to the beta we will prefer you when we draw from our next wave. However, due to the volume of testers applying, it's not a guaran...

This entry may be replaced with another later if we get around to further fleshing out the corona, planet texture, and atmosphere shaders.

I'm trying to make heads or tails of the screenshots. How about some screens with less flash showing how the game works? I'll try and grab some for you today, but many of the panels are being changed to work/look better than their current developer art state. :) And a question, will this game resem...

We reworked the planetary atmosphere shader, and though it is still a WIP, I thought I ought to highlight it here.

This image will be part of your competition for SotM in January (or an even better shot)!

We're tweaking the way atmospheres grab light from stars. Still WIP but thought I'd share.

We are entering but it may be until after midnight here until I am able to get the screenshot up.

http://img222.imageshack.us/img222/8517/article2header.png From the beginning, Star Ruler was designed to be accessible to modders. In this article, we'll explore the impact of that choice from two perspectives: impact of modability on development, and the advantages modability brings to the end us...

Here's an interesting question for you guys:
How do you like your UIs? In particular, what games do you remember having really easy-to-use UIs and had features you'd like to see in Star Ruler?

Thanks!

Thanks Ravi. We're definitely looking forward to showing off the game as it progresses. We're only 60%~ done at the moment after all.

Thanks!
