Medusa
- Posted on Sep 22 2001, 13:32:09 by Faustus
We are currently in the process of building the Medusa website, Palestar's own C++ engine used entirely to build DarkSpace. Please bear with us over the next few days while we get all the information prepared for those interested in licensing Medusa.



Knowledge Base Update
- Posted on Sep 21 2001, 12:23:30 by Faustus
The Knowledge base has been updated to include several new fields of information. If you have already added your hardware to the knowledge base, please go back and update your comment. If you have not added your hardware, then please do so as it helps us identify which cards are having problems and helps those who do have problems find the right drivers to make DS work for them.
FSAA Alert
- Posted on Sep 19 2001, 10:30:35 by Faustus
FSAA stands for Full Screen Anti Aliasing, which usually comes enabled by default with many graphics cards. It is highly recommended that you DISABLE FSAA, you might get a 2X increase in your frame rate within the game.


The FAQ contains some instructions on how to change your FSAA setting, click here to visit the FAQ.

Moving SQL Server...
- Posted on Sep 17 2001, 11:17:04 by Faustus
We will be moving the SQL server to a different machine today. This should hopefully make everything more stable, since we continue to have problems with our FreeBSD machine. The move will occur at 12:00 Noon CST, the entire network will be down during this time for at most an hour.


Update: SQL server has been moved
Knowledge Base
- Posted on Sep 16 2001, 16:20:46 by Faustus
The Knowledge Base is now online, which if you do not know is a great way for users to exchange information concerning Hardware / Driver problems and the solutions to fix them.



We encourage everyone, even if DarkSpace is working fine for you, to add your hardware and comments to the Knowledge Base. This allows us to identify those cards which have problems and those that do not have problems. In your comments be sure to include the Driver Version that you are using for your hardware.

Development Update
- Posted on Sep 14 2001, 16:19:07 by Faustus
Firstly, Servers will now automatically restart when there is a new version available. Every 30 minutes, they check our mirror server, if an update is available they give a 5 minute warning before restarting.



Rank Limits can now be specified in the server settings, meaning a maximum rank can be setup by whoever is running the server. Players of higher rank can still join, however their available ships is capped at the maximum rank. Players can still advance in rank, this does NOT limit your advancements. This was done to create newbie servers in which new players will not be overpowered by Dreadnaughts.



A distress system has been added, 'Control-H' will send out an 'Attacked' distress signal, 'Shift-H' will send out a 'Supply' distress signal. The 'H' key will target the last received distress signal. Planets will send out distress signals automatically when bombed or invaded.



Some important keys have changed...

Control-B Toggles point defenses

Control-D Self Destruct
