Annoying GFX-bug

[Boozeman]

Hi,

I got some "fireflies" on Diamondback Explorer canopy when exploring the Pleiades Nebula. This occurs only the Maia system

I ran in to those in my ASP once... what ARE those?

That looks a bigger version of Horace, the dot that has visited me many times exploring. As far as I can tell Horace was a graphical glitch that they couldn't get to the bottom of, it appears what they did in 1.3 has made it worse.

Hi,

Seems like those artefacts occur the systems where lies black hole..

I got some "fireflies" on Diamondback Explorer canopy when exploring the Pleiades Nebula.

i got that while in my DB-Ex too, but unfortunately i only got a single one of them. i'm wondering if i could download another as a DLC. i figure if it had a friend it would stay around longer. i did a search in FD's store for 'fireflies' but was unable to locate them. maybe they're saving them up for 1.4?


** on a serious note, i noticed that it appears in front of the hud reticle but disappears behind planets (i was about roughly 10Ls from a ringed gas giant when it appeared) - this really screws with your perception of depth, seeing as the reticle is meant to be on the glass right in front of your face

Now I can confirm this. In my case this gfx-artefact occurs only the systems with black hole. Now 3 of 3.

Seeing these myself on and off, and I hang around k-space.

I've seen them when I go into a system with a white dwarf too

Does the gravity from a white dwarf bend the star backdrop in the same way that a black hole does (the "lensing" effect)?

Not that I have visibly noticed no.
