You know, this may or may not be helpful to you as you seem to be a bit of a perfectionist, but these 'color anomalies' you speak of are not a big deal.. I didn't even know what you were talking about in the original pictures.

So one small surface is a bit brighter at a certain angle and zoom. It's no big deal! And for anyone playing the game, they won't know that it wasn't supposed to be there.

Put it this way: It sure as hell doesn't look bad. Those screenshots are pretty nice, and I wouldn't give a second thought about something so minor as what you're complaining about.

it has to do with the point light you are using. when using point lights anomlies can occer when the light is close to the object (or far) depending on how much attenuation and range you give the light. also the 0.5 ambient sorta washes away some shadows and may cause weirdness as well. try using directional lights instead, i bet things will work correctly. the reason the geforce1 may handle it differently is due to how light is caluclated differently in the drivers as well as in each image you show the ship is oriented differently compared to the point light so its not comparable between the two cards at all.
aslo make sure specular lighting is off (ignore what the default may be and turn it off, possible this cause the enhanced brightend areas.

Jo ejszakat! (Don''t answer in Hungarian. I know very, very little.)

I would be glad to test it for you on my computer. Just post it. I have one machine with Win 2000 and a GeForce 3 Ti 200, and another with Win 98 and and some old ATI card that I can''t remember right off the top of my head.

Work great with no "anomalies" (don''t you just love that Trekkie word ) on Windows 2000 with my GeForce 3. Looks like this will be a really cool game when finished!

By the way, I spent 8 months in Budapest. It is my favorite city in the whole world! (and I''ve really been around the world) That''s why I know some Hungarian phrases.

The normals of the faces of the planets seem to be wrong sometimes big triangular strips of the planets disaper showing the inside of the planet below is a screen shot of it..

Also one of the planets is missing one of its poles (there is a circular hole into the planet - this may be the way you designed it though..)

Also somtimes the space ships seems to blink (as if fully lith and then verry shortly after it has normal ligth - so I havent been able to get a screen shot..) this however im fairly shure is a problem with my driver (since it somtimes happens in other games as well) if it is a similar problem your friend is having you migth suggest to him that he tries switching drivers...
