I need people that are truly observant and could check up something for me.
Can you take a look at dark matter in one of your levels and see if there's this wierd pixelation on its shader??
It's the first time I noticed it and it freaked me out. I don't want my CPU to be on the verge of dying and such shader problem could be a sign...

Do you see what I mean? Can you check if yours is like that?
tks alot :)
I played my level "what's the matter" the other day. Noticed the same thing.

That's what mine looks like.
well, this is scary lol
.
I remember when it first appeared in the beta. It looks worse than before, don;t know why it happened, but I think it happens to everyone.
What's the matter is made entirely out of dark matter, and I thought something was going wrong with my level at first. I'm glad this thread appeared. I don't feel as bad now.
So they probably made shaders changes along the way. hmm...
I noticed that the graphical effect inside bubbles also changed some time ago. I think they are optimising some graphical effects to reduce lag and slowdown / tearing maybe.
Anyhow, it must be an optimisation of some kind.
.
More like reverse-optimization. :P
I noticed the freaky texture just yesterday. It makes DM look almost... scary. Like I could make some sort of freaky castle using it as a background.
Did you try putting any stickers on it?
Look up the term 'optimisation' please.Quote:

Weird, doesn't happen to me. I think it must have been some graphic update.
Just showed this to Alex Evans (MM graphics designer) and he said he'll have a look at it after christmas.
so its not an MM planned thing? if an MM employee doesnt know what it is?
LBP? With bugs? Unthinkable!
Is this mearly a graphical glitch or can it hinder gameplay/thermo and if it is just graphical how far does it spread from the DM?
Yeah, I played a level yesterday where it looked like that.
However, when I played create mode a little later my DM was fine.
LOL! ^_^ The moment I learned about the cow glitch, my husband said "oh, we totally should make a level out of completely dark matter and have it do different things" I said "YEAH! and we'll call it 'What's the Matter?' ... my friends groaned and 8 hours later, the level was completed. lol.Quote:

I was playing the one pirates level and destickered the giant bone skeleton thing in the one level, and I definitely could see it all over the place. It looks all glitchy and stuff.
I recently noticed this too, I thought I haven't seen it before. Not sure what to say about it, other than it's probably just a random occurrence not intended by MM. And because of this, I suppose making a glittery DM background wouldn't work. :(
Yeah... couple this with all the 'invisible' darkmatter that 'disappeared' disabling existing levels with the introduction of OC, and you might be on to something!
