Building new starspheres

Does anyone know Devast8or and how to get hold of him? He made a great little utility for creating new starspheres without the stress and my gf coded a little addon for him that eliminated the need to use the run command to activate the thing. I want to send it to him but dunno where he is. Also working on a complete GUI interface for this utility as well, or more to the point, my better half is. I obviously have the utility but think its only fair to show the man what we’ve been up to making his program a lot easier to use.

Here’s an example of what can be done with it

I’m Interested.
I’ve always used UTF Edit for Starspheres, takes forever though. When can we expect this Utility to be released?

I can certainly upload it but i wanted Devast8ors permission although the readme says you can do what you want with it so i’ll take that as a green light

Hi Gibbon.

Does it still make the starspheres huge in size (filesize) that part of it i didnt like at all the resulting cmp were rather big to say the least
I also still have the app

The file size is totally dependant on how many stars you add, my starspheres average out at about 1.5mb. I have a little addon to the utility where you click a new exe file my gf made and it compiles the ini for you. Saves having to run it through the command prompt which was totally pants. I’ll shove it up for download when i get a minute…

I’ll link Dev to this topic. He’s currently on our mod team, so it’s an easy link

Please, by all means use my stuff. I have no problem with people using my stuff for a good cause. Sorry you lost track of me, I guess it happens.

Dude, if Argh or Alchander came back, I’d start shitting bricks.

I know that Alchander left for college last time I was talking to him, but he should be almost done with it now.
