I'm a very long time lurker, so pleased to see you're getting close to showing everyone the power of Outerra! Im patient, so am very happy to watch others beta test- but pleeze, post more pics??!!!! Australia? Red centre??

So, are you guys still open to being middleware for other devs? Or have u realized the potential and keeping it ALL for your greedy selves :-)

I've seen the gobsmacking Truesky, combine this with THAT and you have a world beater. Congrats.

We're basically not posting anything now because we want to finish the tech demo and don't want to tease people endlessly. I apologize for lack of the updates, but we really want to get this done as quickly as possible. Sadly, making a more user-friendly UI turned out to be a more demanding task than we expected, mainly because we are no UI designers and programmers.

We still want to support other devs, and specifically the indie ones. We'll post more info about that after the release.

Make it so that there's no way at all to close the program.  That should be fun.  ;D

It will be worth the effort and wait to get the Gui correct/friendly.

Also remove the esc key to exit the engine... That one still throws me off.

Hi, is the user interface all that remains for you to complete?

How is it running on AMD GPU's?

Yes, UI is what we need to complete for the release.

AMD drivers since the version 11.11 work with Outerra, and since the version 12.01 (preview) they no longer crash randomly when placing roads (specific to 4xxx line of cards).
However, there's still some performance penalty when using AMD GPUs (when comparing to similar Nvidia ones), so the drivers still aren't tuned that well. But it should be getting better.

My specs:
AMD x6 1055T
Radeon HD 6950
8 GB Ram
1 TB HDD

Thank you.

We (the public) should be "arriving" in a couple/few weeks or so, guys. Hehe.  We're "almost there." lol  ;)

LOL, my brain needs a vacation. You got me here for a sec, I completely forgot about the backstory and wondered, what is he talking about?
Given the fact that I have made that screen precisely with that meaning ...  ::) ;D
