We like to share some details about the current status of the Linux port.

We were able to “hack around” some shader problems we had in OpenGL with objects very far away.

The most predominant OpenGL issue we have not solved yet is the dynamic directional lighting for translucent materials. For some reason all objects with this material are instead lit by non-directional light, which makes them way too bright.

We reached out to Epic to help us on this topic.

Hi all,

Just a small update on this topic: The implementation of UWP is more complex than we anticipated and the devil is in the detail, as we say. We are still working closely with our friends at ID@Xbox to release Everspace on the Windows Store supporting Xbox Play Anywhere and we look forward to announce more details very soon.

Have a great weekend,

Michael
