Help with hardware and software graphics
#5
Hi @Ikerkaz,

First two things... Big fan of Star Trek andĀ Amstrad (cpc464)... Woo Hoo!

I may not be of much help... But, from my experience in space games, certain things just do not move... eg: Galaxies and Nebulae (unless you are travelling 'through' them) in comparisonĀ to the relative speed of your ship... they just do not move. Stars (unless warp speed is used) should move 'slowly'. Asteroids and planets a little quicker... (Note: If you are going for accuracy, Starships are not permitted to use warp speed within a solar system - here ends today's lesson.. lol)

Question: Are you using some kind of "cloud" type function to draw the nebula? If you are not flying through it, my advice would be, use a fixed image instead.

If it is at all possible, may I see a screenshot, of what you have done so far?

J
May your journey be free of incident. Live long and prosper.
