It's funny that only changing the color of space make strange. Maybe it will give a idea to a develloper for whiter space that is no a bug.



For the bug, i have this bug in windows but no in linux. In linux i have other bug (This is cross platform playing). This bug is no a big problem for playing, the only problem is that beam are hard to see, and missile are hard to see. But it's completly playable.

It's not a bug. That's your video card not handling the skybox texctures correctly.

In this case why does it work in linux and not in Windows? On the same computer. A problem with different driver?

Would be a nice game style if the LSF ships are black.

Yes this.
I failed in checking each skybox, the one used in the last missions is 4096x2048 and not every video card can handle that (I should have taken note of this with my own laptop, which didn't display the skybox correctly either)

There was someone else who had the same issue and I uploaded a fix for him then. Unforunately I threw that on rapidshare so that link is dead now.
I'll find and upload it for you tomorrow.

Tank you for the fast responce. It was a strange sensation to pilot in a white space.

I doesn't understand why it work in linux without problem but no in windows... A problem with the drivers surely.

It is normal to have problem with somes hardward like laptop. So it's not a faillure, only a bug or problem normal in a program.
