I have 3 bones to pick with alpha 2. First, it doesn't support texture and color hybrids (the Tux-Sphinx in the old Shifting Sands). Is it necessary to make another texture for that surface?
Second, My graphics card (NVIDIA GeForce 4 Ti 4200)
hates STK. See sshot.

- Annoying, isn't it?
Third, having no skybox results in the un-inhabited space flickering and making the screen look terrible.
Please get these fixed!

As told on IRC, vertx coloring is still supported.
Second, it's probably not the graphics card itself but the drivers; make sure you have good drivers
Third, if you wish to have no skybox, you need to add "<sky-color rgb="0 0 0"/>" to your scene.xml file

I have to manually change the resolution daily, but it fixes the problem.
What's the default rgb sky color for 0.6 and earlier?

100 200 225 is good enough for me!

For future reference, 77 178 229 is the actual color.

STATUS REPORT!!!
Volcano is now 100% done, and I'm now moving on to BSOD's Castle. The lap counting only counts the first lap though...
Check out stkaddons.tuxfamily.org to download Volcano!

Validated !
Volcano track from 0.5 ported to 0.7, will be featured in STK Lite.
So, you are planing to do STK Lite ? You will modify the code ?

I've been working on STK Lite ever since I started that thread. No time for STKed though...

I think this annoying thing is beautiful...
Maybe we can make an animated texture like this for the star track.

What, the rainbow? That's the low poly Star Track for STK Lite.

Yes. Can we use the rainbow for the "normal" STK, too?

Evolution: it's technically feasible, but I'm not sure we want

we generally prefer a more polished look

Are we still going for a cartoonish look to?

"Cartoonish" doesn't equal ugly.
Sorry, couldn't resist.

It's OK, but Evolution and I like that texture.

I see. Of course you are entitled to your opinion, and I wish you the best with STK Lite.
