Shouldn't you only change the end of the name from .exe to .scr?
Thought I had read this on this forums years ago.
Don't know wether it still works and wether I remember it right.
Should still work, .scr files are just .exe files actually.  I'm not sure if it works by just adding the project files to the windows directory where the 'exe' (renamed to .scr) file is located, but it's also possible to pack all the files into one exe file. Anyways, I think renaming the .exe should be enough actually,
Cheers

Very cool!  Too bad it's not very playable when you 'take control' of a fighter. Controls are slooooow and you don't quite stand a chance against the computer controlled fighters, but for a screensaver you did a great job, Cheers

"But creating an RPG still is not so complicated as creating the mathematical functions for such a game! *lol*" amen! ever tried to create a 3d radar?! man...^^ stuck on this one...:P great update, very cool stuff! I'm not sure I like the star wars style, simply because I'm more of a (Star) Trekker. but for fans, this is awesome! And the overall project is simply great Micha

@PHeMoX That's true, I don't play it, too.  The control was made quite simple, it still is AI controlled, only the target vector is replaced by a vector created from the key input and firing is blocked as long as no mouse button is clicked. And I think in Lucas Arts games the Lasers are more like "Blocks" and their collision detection is not polygon precise but more bounding box based. @Germanunkol For a 3D radar I'd use the mathematical distance-dot-line (Abstand Punkt-Gerade) to get the "x-y distance" of the targets relative to the direction of view. @mpdeveloper_A Is a skymap as static as model sphere? At least it is square but however, I don't have a pic with such a huge size a I faked it with the tiled space sphere. @mk_1 I used the normalmapping shader from the wiki.

I've ahd this problem before with trying to create a space game. :S
But the stars need some help. Why not use a skymap? Other than that I really like it.
