======= Technical Help =======
Unending Galaxy is in Beta. As such, you may experience some issues and bugs.
Minimum Requirements
Intel or AMD Dual Core 2Ghz CPU
Graphics card with DirectX 9.0c and Pixel shaders 2.0 support
1GB of RAM free (2 highly recommended)
150MB Hard Drive space
Windows Vista SP1
DirectX 10 or later installed
In theory, the game may run on CPU with only one core, but stability and performance may suffer dramatically. The game is mostly CPU bound and fully multi-threaded - the more cores your CPU has, the better the game will run.
Troubleshooting
Graphics Issues
Try enabling or disabling the Full Hardware Acceleration in the graphical settings menu (you'll need to restart the game)
Try enabling or disabling the DirectX 9 Legacy Mode in the graphical settings menu (you'll need to restart the game)
If the game can't run with full hardware acceleration and if it's running very slowly with the setting is disabled, it's likely caused by having Windows' visual style disabled. You can fix that by doing the following (Windows 7):
Open the Control Panel, click System and then Advanced System Settings.
In Performance » click Settings
In the Visual Effects list check “Use visual styles on windows and buttons” at the bottom.
Game Not Launching
Sound Issues
The ffdshow filter, installed with some multimedia and codec packs may cause issues with our sound library on some computers. You can prevent ffdshow from running with our application by opening its settings, clicking DirectShow Controls / don't use ffdshow in / edit… and add Unending Galaxy's executable to the list. Refer to FFDShow website and documentation for help if need be.
