At least one of those games (Minecraft) doesn't use DX. I believe I have run SpaceRoguelike on an XP machine some time ago, so it's not XP in particular that's unable to run SpaceRoguelike. However, the fact that Minecraft gives a 'Bad graphics card' error on startup tells me something. Does it say anything like 'could not find accelerated pixel format' or the like?

Oh fudge, looks like Intel sort of pulled the plug for this chipset, i.e. Intel isn't going to make any more updates.

Oh and the posting: you know there's a way to edit your posts, right?
Quite frankly I wonder why I ever began making ships for this. You see, my work never becomes quite as good as I feel it deserves to.

and btw can someone ask th15 for what the game use for dx and maybe its about game resolution,or hardward acceleration of the chipset ,i saw a vid where the guys lowered his hardward acceleration and could start minecraft right after.but it will be long to test with every resolution ,(i use 1366 x 768 True Color (60 Hz) )

This is coming along nicely.
The new logic for ship part parenting is impressive.
Although I would like to see an ability to affix the camera's location and rotation to the ship, so you can keep track of left and right easier.

That has been suggested I think.

Socom:
As far as the chipset goes... I've decided I haven't got enough knowledge to fix this. Try posting your problem with DX on places like the Motherboard Forums, they'll know...

Cool game so far, i like how the star map seems to be randomly generated on each new game. :)

They are, actually. Keeps the game interesting.
Personally, I really like the music when you're on the star map. Quite space-like!
