There was nothing new in a fairly long time. But I can show you the new Ore refinery refit today. Next time I show you the new station interior. Hope you like it.

Small explosion refinement
After playing CnC Generals, I decided to have another look over the explosion particle generation. So I added a dirt layer and tweaked timing and particle count a little bit. I am quite satisfied now.
I hope I can finish the ore refinery setup until the next demo release coming end of september.

Tweet tweet tweet…
We got twitter. Spectacular. Extraordinary. Soon we will also have a new demo. This only as a little side note.

Star Chasm Alpha Demo 2
As of now the second official demo release of Star Chasm can be downloaded from our server. We incorporated several changes to the game since the last release as:
- new missions
- a radar
- a new faction: the ronaldists
- a new dialogue system
- strafe flight
- some ships got new textures
But it’s still in its alpha stage. So not all features could be implemented. Some things are still missing or incomplete. But at least you are able to fly within 2 star systems, complete a few missions, trade and mine and fight. So we would be more than happy if you had a few moments to check out our latest demo and give a little ranting and raving.

Star Chasm Alpha Demo
We proudly released the second alpha demo release this friday. Okay not here, but over at moddb. So if you can’t wait until I had the time to write the full article, have a look right here:moddb.
I hope I can give a more detailed report tomorrow.
Cheers lo-tekk
New theme again.
Yes it was about time to refurbish the old one. Took me some time I would have better spent coding maybe, but I couldn’t stand the washed out look of the old one. Now with text shadow and feature images. Unfortunately I do not have made any yet.
Didn’t I tell you that we will release the next Starrr Chasssm Alpha Demo tomorrow ? Ok more to come at friday.
Cheers lo-tekk
Progress Report
We are working hard on the demo missions and continue to iron out any bugs we can find. If we can keep the current pace, we might be able to release the next demo version pretty soon.
Progress report
No image this time. I am doing some more work over of the tutorial mission right now, tweaking and refining some dialogues and scripted behavior. I decided to re-color the fighter crafts by making them less dull in the same fashion as the merchant vessels are. I can’t remember why I made them so different from the rest of the fleet in means of color, but I think that the fighters look better now.
Cheers lo-tekk
Some small updates
Star Chasm is not dead. We are still working; in the moment at slow pace because of summer holidays. And this years summer hits us pretty hard with high temperatures we are not really used to. Beside of the whining, we are still reworking the missions we have so far, change the look of a few commodities, model some new ships. I have changed the main menu background scene to show traffic coming through a jump node and we changed the mission selection screen to a sort of station BBS, where mission proposals and local news and stories are mixed together. I promise, I try to write relevant news updates more often.
