This month I wont miss out 
Behold: My ugly testship under fire from another ship.
Bonus points: I was to lazy to fit the energy generator and the cargos inside when I added those, so I just strapped them to the hull.

Nice nebula in the skymap, mind to share how you did it ?
I am trying to make similar nebula using the GIMP, but I could not get such result yet.
Search for the program SpaceScape, it needs some timeto adjust the filters but works great.

jokes apart i am a big fan of space games. What is this project about?

Working hard with those damn lights!!!
Natural light (sun / moon) and Artificial light working together!!
My next goal is to convert my project to use 100% of Lemur.

Little early and not much than bug fixes & under the hood stuff. But I was curious about the ShadowPlay, so, here it goes:

I added a chicken passive mob to Spoxel⌠and then decided to add it as a mutator in my spell system so you can now have flaming chicken projectiles.

Hi,
after many years of development, Iâd like to present my aerospace flight simulator. It is built using the physics of my BSc thesis, about multi-body dynamics, and JME3. Due to the current focus on atmospheric effects Iâd like to show you these.
Turning onto final approach:
Atmosphere with haze:
Sunset from space:
Sunset from a mountain:
View from space:
Approaching the runway with fog, 500 meters visibility and 800 meters runway visual range (=visibility of lights):
Hope you like it.

Wow.
Could you make a video?

Will do so, I have 3 exams to go, which I would like to finish until the end of september, so please be patient. But you can expect it in the not so far future

Would be interesting to hear about what techniques youâve used if you are ever willing to share.

Looks awesome! Really really good. Iâd also love to see a video.
tonihele, how will your game work with regards to DK2 assets?
OpenTTD way hopefully 
Currently we donât have a proper replacement pipeline even in place, some bits here and there. And it is not a priority. It is a great deal of work for a complete assets replacement. And the new assets would not use the same techniques (MP2 & MP2 [sounds, file extension], vertex animations etc), so they would require some work in supporting such. And it is far too early for such.
It would be great at first to have replacement textures. Since we really canât even expand the original textures with additional texture maps, such as light & normal maps. Because of the legal issues, probably drawing a light map for a copyrighted texture counts as a derivative work and gets us to jail. But instead of directly replacing all, textures would be the way to go.
But there are lotâs of other assets, such as the game data itself. So I think we require DK II for years to come.
The clear sky model is an implementation of the paper âPrecomputed Atmospheric Scatteringâ, Bruneton et al.
The fog/haze is a simple Beer-Lambert exponential law, with the color based on daylight and optical depth from the top of the fog layer.
I store the transmittance (or remaining intensity) in the alpha channel of the rendered scene. This value is used to compute a separate transmittance for all light emitting objects, such as the point light halos in the last image. (See:
this thread)

In the previous month Iâve developed a game called Phenomenally powerful princess pink vs the scary stinking slimy slugs.
Donât you believe me? See below:
[EDIT] official announcement here [EDIT: Please partecipate at the pool!] Phenomenally powerful princess Pink vs the scary stinking slimy slugs
Not sure if I should be proud or ashamed of it though

Against my better judgement⌠I tried this Doesnât start without increasing the heap size, I used -Xms512m to the package.cfg. In the game however the thing you control and the things flying at you (?) are just huge black quads. Did you forget some assets?
