Helios j-5

oh wow! what a nice and descriptive bug! i think i will go duplicate it right now.

It was plenty clear to me.

Yarrr... guides be tricky!

I'm just curious how he knew it was about him.

Anyway, I see no stars in the sun. What's your graphics card, driver version, and what driver are you using within VO?

Given all that, the other Helios sectors show no stars in the sun.

Well see now there's your problem.
Riiiiiight there (points to problem).

ah yes

gama=5
def_freq=45556
vbl=.44

try that and your problem should be solved

This happened to me once, but that was back when linemode actually did something

Nice call, who? me?... it's a vast improvement but the stars are still there, though barley visible.
