Hi sorry I dont quite understand and auto-translate wasn't much help

Removed a seemingly unrelated comment from vohocey ... message below with links removed. The message does not pertain to this article or the content of this article.

just started 6 weeks ago and I've gotten 2 check for a total of $2,200...this is the best decision I made in a long time! "Thank you for giving me this extraordinary opportunity to make extra money from home. This extra cash has changed my life in so many ways, thank you!"

Sorry for the delay didn't get a notification.

Yes Terran is in development and has announced its full release date of 21 March 2019

Hi bigdady85 sorry for the delay, we don't get notifications when posts are made here.

As for the ship editor it has been disable for the time being while we focus on gameplay refinements. As to flying a ship around in 3rd person, yes you can!

In combat you can select any of your ships by simply clicking on it and then take direct control of it by pressing Tab (default) to enter pilot mode, pressing tab again will return to command mode.

The patch coming up (info on release date coming soon) brings with it several key improvements to the UI and in game guidance that should help with learning how to play and accessing features like pilot mode.

Thank you for your feedback, and apologies for the delay this message didn't appear in my box yet its dated for Sep :(

Starting the Early Access off so early in the development process and at full price has been a question mark for quite a few.

Terran's Early Access however was not started so early in order to fund the game's development rather to enable those interested in the game to get in early and help mature it not simply test it. As you noted the game is not yet feature complete, as of the Sep patch Terran is still in Phase 1.

As to span between Steam announcements or updates to the Main branch I'll bring that to the team. The Beta branch which is available on Steam to all who have the game is updated rather frequently with its changes reflected on the Trello road map, while Main is only updated as given bench marks are hit and stabilised such as the Sep patch. This can certainly be improved to at the very least be more apparent and we will take that on board.

We are gearing up to announce the next patch now which will transition the game into Phase 2 of our Early Access plan and is a perfect time for us to make changes and improvements to how we meet the communities needs. I hope you follow the project and let us know what you think.

Hi Guest;

Had to go with an auto translate but I think you are asking if this is a mod and no; Mod DB and Indie DB reflect the same items and articles the Press Kit is for Heathen Engineering's Terran a game listed on Indie DB.

Things are moving along and we hope to announce the start date for Early Access soon.

We will be running Early Access in 3 notable phases the first of which will focus on the Ship Editor (build custom ships) and of course testing them out in space and combat :)

Hope you keep an eye on Terran and see how it matures, it has come so far just since the Greenlight we really cant wait to get it out to people and start the feedback loop!

New build nearing completion and should be available early next week. The new build includes an engine update and coupled with Oculus driver updates VR is a bit unstable at least on Windows 10.

This next build however is more focused on the revamped ship editor UI, menu UI and ship handling e.g. the new mouse assisted flight controls. We will post news and updates on this download item and of course the previous build should see the new version available once its up on the server.

If you have any issues contact Support@HeathenEngineering.com subject Terran Demo

Update for new screenshots and extended information on the game and company

The statue model is a highly complex raw model which you can find here Blendswap.com There is no UV mapping and that is why Unity standard shader simply paints it the solid color. Heathen's Standard Shader asset includes 2 Standard shaders

1) Triplanar which has options for world or object projection
2) Standard which has options for occluded render (see through walls) and Selective Glow

This show the box's occlusion effect is turned on and configured to use a tented render of the albedo with rim style emission for a more muted but still visible occluded render than the warrior who is using a full rim light with high emission.

In this shot the box's occlusion feature is turned off; still the same shader just a simple configuraiton in editor

Heathen's Terran is am ambitious game featuring capital spaceship combat, ship building, faction, corporation, bounty hunter gangs and crime syndicates that can be formed, taken over or joined and served. Manufacturing, politics, trade, black markets and a rich persona system for the NPCs.

The game features can be staggering; so is it all to much, not enough or is goldilocks and just right?

Which feature/s sound most interesting to you or have we just missed your favourite of SciFi gaming all together. Let us know on the Steam Greenlight Concept page where we have set up discussion forums for this and more.

We want to hear from you. Over the life of the project we have got some great feedback and ideas and have take that into the game.Your feedback thus far has done a lot to help realise Terran and there is still a lot to do so be sure to check us out on Facebook, Twitter, Steam or anywhere else you like be and leave your thoughts, ideas and criticisms.

Found this first on Steam and now hear; really looking forward to this one best of luck on the Greenlight campaign

Be sure to click the 'read more +' in the Description to find the video and details on the download.

Good to see it was quite a pain to synchronise IndieDB download links, news articles, etc. with the rest of the social networks for this very reason.

While planet side gameplay is something we have thought about a lot its below some of the other wishes on the list :)

Territory Assets
Take ownership of planets, stations, fields, etc. and build/expand on them increasing population, resource gain and output of various products such as ship components, commodities and technologies. Become your own faction and enter the political/conquest side of life.

Corporations
Create or otherwise 'acquire' business, establish trade and manufacturing, employ or be employed to climb the corporate steps. A powerful corporation can even rival the authority and power of the factions.

Syndicates
Establish or join criminal organizations, weave a network of smugglers, contraband manufactures, spies and other shady operations for profit or just to mix it up ;)

Hunters
Become a bounty hunter, vie for position on the hunters leader board and earn more profitable contracts with none of the baggage associated with military service or faction rule... not every one likes politics, sometimes you just want to blow things up :)

Just for note the white text you see on the screen will be part of a published alpha/beta build but is there for test purposes and wont feature in the finished game.

v1.4 has gone live on the unity asset store; this version allows for correct rendering on Direct X platforms with AA enabled. Previously there where some conditions where the effects y would be inverted this is due to differences in GL and DX which aren't normally an issue as Unity handles them behind the curtain.

looking nice; I have been waiting for a replacement for Warband ... Fire and Sword was good but I prefer my experience with no boom sticks :)

Will Bannarlord have fire arms if so to what degree

Heathen Engineering's Selective Glow Essentials v1.3 has gone live. This update includes several bug fixes and improvements around mobile to include new offset parameters giving you the control to shift your glow effect on screen this to correct pixel shifting on OGL and the separation of the blur cone tap shader from the main image effect thus providing better support for iOS.

Heathen is committed to the quality, stability and continuing development of its products; be sure to give us feedback on the Unity store or if you prefer directly on our support site at Support.HeathenEngineering.com

Find us on the Unity Asset Store @ Assetstore.unity3d.com
There you can find a complete listing of our products and links to our main and support sites.

Heathen Engineering has submitted v1.2 for review with Unity Asset store. This update brings a load of new shaders including conversions of the stock Unity Mobile shaders and few improvements to boot.

Keep watching for release news!

The glow shader shown here has many of its values turned off for testing. The final version will support

Global: Iteration
Global: Blur speed
Global: Intensity
Object: Inner Intensity
Object: Outter Intensity
Object: Tint Color (RGB) Strength (A)
Object: Glow Map Tex (A)

The system is quite easy to hook up to any existing custom shaders you might have and includes a glow enabled set for most of the common shaders i.e. Transparent, Cutout, Defuse, Bumped, Parallax, Reflective, etc.

Nearing completion of the tool and the UI is looking so much nicer. will post a few more screens when the new build is up for testing and of course a new preview just before we send it off for approval.

A nice new feature brought to us via the new UI is the validation tool; this not only repairs missing language/library combinations but also identifies missing keys
