Experimental v1.3

Post
    Pantera on Steam - Thread - Direct
Hi Galactic Survivalists!
Welcome to v1.3 EXPERIMENTAL!

The year 2020 is slowly coming to its end - but Empyrion Galactic Survival is not! With the upcoming v1.3 we are adding a bunch of bug fixes, but also several new features and more content.

One of the main features is the new decals system. The decals feature will allow you to bring custom pictures into the game and add it to structures spawned in the playfields.

As a second addition, you can now create custom NPC factions and add them to galactic territories, playfields and POI as you like! We are also adding new POIs and new variants of NPCs and Creatures for you to equip your POI structures with.

Last, but not least, you can test four new main story missions which continue the chapter 1-6 story arc!

Please have a close look at the changelog below. More info about certain topics, explanations and a chance to give your feedback on them can be found stickied in the EXP feedback f... Read more

v1.2.X Patches

Post
    Pantera on Steam - Thread - Direct
Hello Galactic Survivalists!
Welcome to version 1.2!

Those of you, following us on the forums, twitter and Discord might already have seen a few of the additions, update 1.2 will add to the game. But as this patch has been growing a bit more into an intermediate version, there is a lot more to be found. Some additions might only seem to be visual changes, like the new Asteroid rings (which are now visible from planets as well) and other entries of the changelog below might sound like technical shenanigans, but both will prepare some of the groundwork we will iterate on for this years ‘Christmas update’.

While you venture through the world of v1.2, also mind the new behavior and attacks of the ‘Otyugh’ land predator, check the loot boxes closely for a new fire-spitting weapon and enjoy all the new POIs.

A note for builders: In case your structure or vessel suddenly loses oxygen, check your slant, half and irregular blocks, tilted windows and other elemen... Read more

PINNED: Leaving Alpha & Early Access: some clarifications.

Post
    Pantera on Steam Forums - Thread - Direct
Dear Galactic Survivalists.

We would like to address some of the concerns we have seen in the comments on our initial ‘leaving Early Access/Alpha’ announcement.

The reasons?

Plain and simply: We want to leave Early Access on our 5th anniversary release, because we are confident that the game is now in a shape, where it no longer needs that supporting wheels tag. We are not running out of money (most read concern) and there are no dark entities that are forcing us to do that (lots of funny theories :D) .

On the contrary, we are sure the game is playable in quality, although not free of issues, that is simply not reflected anymore by how the meaning of an Early Access tag is understood or talked about even nowadays.

As a consequence, leaving Early Access also means to remove the “Alpha” tags, as they are somehow tied to this stage. But there needs to be some sort of new versioning. While we did not want to proceed with simply counting furt... Read more

Game Survey 2020 thread [empyriononline.com]

Hi Galactic Survivalist!

We hope you all had a great start in 2020! We have been a bit silent on the current progress on Empyrion and you deserve to know what is going on behind the curtain.

While we still run smaller patches on the Alpha 11.5.x branch, the development on the Alpha 12 features (we are working on since early January), have already made some noticeable progress.

That being said, we want to share with you a brief summary of some of the features that will be in the next major update. These blog posts are currently in preparation and will be released in the next few days. Please excuse the delay.

In the meantime, we would like to announce our GAME SURVEY 2020

I followed every single step. Game launches fine (altho it seems like its crashing), but when I select new game and go into the loadingscreen, after loading the planets to 100% the screen goes black. 10 seconds later it crashes to the desktop, closing down steam completely and 50% of the time forcing me to restart my computer as well, be...

  • In the Empyrion root folder which can be found by right clicking on Empyrion in your steam library > Properties > Local files > Browse local files look for 'Empyrion.props' & open it with notepad++ or notepad & remove the # & return space before the parameter for example:

    # DisableTextureStreaming = true

    DisableTextureStreaming = true

    then save the file & try starting the game again.

Yes but this kind of issue unfortunately doesn't appear until a server becomes highly populated.

Update: April 23, 2019
We are really sorry, but we had to temporarily revert back to Unity 2018.1 (Alpha 9.6 - Build 2307) since UNET causes some problems that we need to address first. Your save games should be fully compatible with Alpha 9.6.

Alpha 9.7 (Build 2316) will stay on the EXPERIMENTAL branch.

The options & difficulty settings are now in the gameoptions.yaml which can be found in the scenario folder of the scenario setup to be used in the dedicated.yaml.

For example look at the gameoptions.yaml for the Default Multiplayer scenario here:

We had to temporarily switch back to Alpha 9.5.0 (B2294) due to problems with reading custom Config.ecf
