    If you have this problem.
    1. Download the program 3danalyzer
    2. Run the program. Press to select. Go to the directory of the game Starbound/win32/starbound.exe
    3. Click on the check box. Emulate HW TnL caps
    4. Start the game and enjoy.
    There are downsides, because of this program, it does not see the steam, but the first time it's enough forward when developers Fixed it all.
    P.S: Sorry for my english С:

    Thx, so im assuming that starbound requires Hardware Transform and Lighting.
    If so, then this might not be a bug :(

    Worked for me, thanks. But its really slow. Any fix for that?

    No, first they said that under modern optimizing slow computers. And yes, our graphics card supports it, otherwise the texture was not simple. You intergrirovan?

    Try to reduce the screen resolution, and use zoom3x
    When I turned on the screen 640х800 game gave me 60fps

    How did you get 640x800? I can only get around 1000x 600 or so

    I run, not the entire screen. But it was open to the whole window. I accidentally pulled his arm, and he became less. Just do it, like folders.

    Do you think they will actaully make it so people with bad computers can play? I thought if i can run terraria i could run this but apparently not. Btw how do you make it so it launches directly and not go to launcher?

    The program itself performs this function.

    Yes, they said that it is optimized for slow computers. Because, even on good computers lag in dungeon. Here is what they said:
    >7. My system specs are too low to run the game right now. I thought Starbound was going to be easier to run!
    We're still working on optimizing the engine, so system specs are going to be a bit higher at first, as Tiy mentioned in this post.

    Hmm, I'm fine, you're not digging in the settings?
     
  13. Khandaker

    Khandaker Void-Bound Voyager

    Do you have the latest update...? What are all your 3d analyze settings?
     
  14. denafox

    denafox Subatomic Cosmonaut

    Yes, use the latest update. Settings that I have in the tutorial.

    Maybe you ticked run as administrator for starbound.exe.
    I did that and 3danalyze gave me an error.
    or try reinstalling 3danalyze.

    You just need a long wait. In Task Manager, you can see when he typed 800MB start.
