Re: DEMO!
A note for anyone getting a black screen at start: I have to alt-tab away from the game, then back to it, for it to display. Also had to switch the video mode to Safe; after I did those everything's good.
Looks good, nice FPS on my system. Default controls are a little strange though.

Re: DEMO!
Also, some people may experience problems if a screen saver kicks in while you have the game paused. If so, you may want to disable your screen saver.

Re: DEMO!
The Demo can be modded?

Re: DEMO!
Hi All,
Yes, the Starfury demo has been released! Whoo-Hoo!
Demo Details:
- An all new prequel campaign that leads you into the main storyline of Starfury.
- Most of the data files are not moddable.
- You only get 3 races in the demo, and only the smaller ship sizes (no Battleships, Carriers, or Terran Starbases).
- The demo only contains about 30% of the components available.
Enjoy!

PS: If you run into any technical difficulties, email me at [email protected] and include a detailed report, system specs, screenshots, and savegames. Some graphics cards have peculiar drivers...

Re: DEMO!
Is the painfully slow download speed because everyone and there brother is trying to get it at the same time? It's like I have dial-up all over again.

Re: DEMO!
It was 300 or so kb/s when I downloaded this morning, and based on the performance of the forums, I'd say Shrapnel is swamped.
