I just felt a great disturbance in the Force. It was as though a billion nerds suddenly creamed their pants, and wept for joy.

more tasty stuff

possibility off color customization for your ship in Infinity:The Quest for Earth. He also shows up how the dirt map of a ship will look.
At last he shows off a shader effect he experimented with and which should simulate rain in the atmosphere of planets.

Hasn't this been in work for a few years? The dev said in Youtube that ETA is around 2009, would be great if it actually gets released this year.

Looks like a very impressive engine anyways, but the lack of 1st person cockpit view is very disappointing. I'll try that Combat Prototype.

Your sales pitch made me, hubba hubba, very interested... until I found out it's a MMOG. Not interested anymore.

apparently it will be free to play and not subscription based. Not sure on the full details. But you just pay for extra content and stuff

It's just one guy coding all this! In his spare time...


here is a post showing how he made the nebulas

in any case browse the technical section of the forum, lots of stuff for graphic programming nerds :twisted:

Will the game be free ? Or if not, how much will it cost ? Will it have a monthly fee ?

This is currently unknown at that time. Running an MMO is expensive. It might be possible to play for free for a while or without some advanced features, reserved to paying customers ( premium memberships ), or to support the game through sponsors/advertisement, but nothing is set in stone.
