There shall be DARKNESS!! 41,000+ ships (lots of images) + savegames (v1.04 testing)

This is a testing, im trying to beat my previous record. check out 20.368 ships test from beta 3.

+ means there are more, but the number you see is whats at the current system when the screen is taken.


10,543+



16,883+






27,388













32,029+










41,000+
no images

Here the savegames i promished, more to come as i get the auto saves renamed.

Savegames with:
32,000+ ships
31,000+ ships
29,000+ ships
28,000+ ships
26,000+ ships
25,000+ ships
20,000+ ships
18,000+ ships
17,000+ ships
16,000+ ships
15,000+ ships
7000+ ships
5000 ships
2000 ships
1000 ships
800 ships

NOTE:
- No need to mod any files.
- with the 10k+ its recommended that you set your graphics really low and work your way up from there.
- It can also be a good idea to pause the games ASAP and press ctrl+shift+z to gain better FPS.
- expect long load times of 5-10min
- not recommended for 133mhz PCs

How do you actually go about doing something like this?

just edited the scout of the vasari:
0,000001 build time
0 metal
0 crystal
0 credits
0 fleet supply

and i just start building them :)

How slow does your machine get at the various levels?

Is it playable with 10k ships on a good system?

it depends if there are moving ships or shooting. If 10k ships are shooting then you can sorta say its like having 20-30k ships on the screen at any time.

But for singleplayer games id say with a 3Ghz dual core and any 8800GTS plus cards should be able to run with about 4-5000 ships for 2 empires and a FPS about 30+-

It really is a CPU depending game, so the better CPU the more ships or better FPS.

a small update to this, i managed to get 41,000+ ships, but when i tried to change from window mode to full screen mode it crashed :d
Loading the 41k savegame gives me a C++ error, so unfortunately i cant supply with screenshots.

So maybe thats the limit of the engine? 41.000+ ships? :LOL:

ahh sorry about the DP , by the way the :Y was meant to be a thumbs up emoticon and I just thought it maybe looks like something offensive , just so you know that wasnt the intention at all.

Really great screens! Looks really cool , like some crazy sick alien race swarm

Actually have to say those are the best screens I have seen on this game period, Im going to save them and use 1 as a screensaver if thats okay?

of course, use as many as you please :)

out of curiosity how did the game run?

with the 41k+ ships it was running really slow :p but i could play "normally" with the 10k ships.

Also i didnt submit the 41k savegame as it wont work since it gives the C++ error. Its been sent to Ironclad so they can improve it even further :)
If anyone wants me to submit the 41k+ savegame anyways, let me know :)

"I don't understand where did it go?"
"It's just gone, ran into an astroid field or somthing."
"It was destroyed. By the empire."
"Impossilbe, it would take a 1000 Star Destroyers with more fire power...oh wait nevermind."

SD and IC must be so proud of there little engine that did and is doing.
