Starbound Beta Thread - Begins December 4th!

Didn't realize the official modding site is already up. It looks pretty good. Nice to have an option other than Nexus.
Well, seeing as I haven't got an instrument post-wipe, and I barely will be able to play until weekend (and perhaps even then), I decided to zip up all the music I've been selecting. These are all one-track .abc files, manually either selected or converted from MIDI by me so that they're as recognizable as possible. I've focused on videogames for obvious reasons, but threw in a handful of movies and TV themes plus some "non-soundtrack" music I liked most.
Thanks for doing this. I downloaded it and played Song of Storms on the acoustic guitar.
 
So I know they changed it so that the search box isn't active by default now, but that behavior isn't in effect for my crafting table. Anyone else experiencing this? Or is it a bug on my end?

thank you very much for doing this!!
 
arctic-constellation1 is such an amazing track, I wish it was featured on the soundtrack but I'm glad it's stored in the assets folder so I can listen to it whenever I want.

While on the subject of music - why do the music tracks keep looping? I sometimes just alt-tab just to get the game to play another track [alt-tabbing makes the game skip to another track for whatever reason]
 
Can you find other songs to play in the game besides canon in d minor? I know you can mod and add some in there, but I mean like, as loot or a crafting recipe?

when should i fight the first boss? i found a couple good weapons in a castle on my home planet including one that shoots nifty lightning balls. any tips on fighting him?
 
As far as I know, they're just a vanity back item. You can use them to cover up the lantern on a stick, if you don't like the look of it.

The description says only a wizard can use it, and I found a vendor that sells a wizard hat a while back...I'll see if it does anything
 
Damn, i got crashed and then i couldnt join GAF server :) Server is always overload in NA time, it seems :)

@Sien [sorry if mispelled]

What was tier of that planet? I got one shot with tier 6 armor xD
 
Pretty sure this game fucked up my mouse. Holding down the left click for so long has basically made it not register clicks anymore. Or not register me holding down the mouse.

Yeah, I made an AHK script that holds the LMB down for me to save my mouse and finger from wearing out (originally for Minecraft, another mouse-murdering game). If you'd like, I can post it here; it's really simple.
 
Guys I reinstalled and its asking for a asset that doesn't exist. It was a mod I was dinking around two installs back. I don't understand where this file that is telling it to load an asset that doesn't exist...where do I go for help?

If you post the last entry in the starbound.txt file in the Starbound folder, it should give us an idea of what the problem is. (It logs all the errors you receive when running the game for review later).
 
Where are people finding it best to plant and harvest? So far I've been making do in the ship but there is so little room.

I like the idea of cultivating on a planet, however going back and forth with fuel is too cumbersome.
 
Its probably means a corrupt save..so I am going to try a new save and see if it does same thing.

Man I have never made it to tier 2 lol!
 
I made it to tier 2 with my first character, but after that I've mostly been making characters to test stuff! Someday I will actually play.
 
Anyone been talking about the duping?

Me and my friends stumbled on it on my server. Personally hope they patch out/fix it.

Game is amazing though. Just got the (anti) matter blocks?
 
Played about 3 hours of this game, finally! I have to say that I'm really impressed, especially for a game in Beta.

Rolled an Apex and have built a shelter of cobble stone, have a camp fire, anvil, work bench, smelter and bed.

I don't think they're tackling cheat protection yet. Who needs duping when you can just cheat engine your way to glory?
 
Ok so I got into the beta today, I really wasn't expecting anything special to be honest, I though it would be just terraria set in space, oh boy was I wrong, the beautiful music alone adds a lot to the game immersion, glad that my expectations were far from correct.

Im doing fine, have been turned into meat pure countless times already, so I decided to set up my first shack inside of what seems some sort of high tech base, but then I realize it wasn't a very bright idea since I gotta travel all the way there from the spawn point which leads into more fights and in result more deaths :(
Is there any way to set the spawnpoint in any location on the planet?

Bah if not, I will just relocate again.

Currently you cannot change the place where you beam down.

I thiiink the dev said they are working on it though. Not sure.

Please do or pm me it. For the sake of my finger. Thanks!
 
So what do the different colored stimulants do? I have a few red, yellow, and blue ones and don't want to waste them after trying a yellow one and getting a buff of some sort yet I still didn't know what it did.
