• Naev 0.9.4

  BY NAEV DEVTEAM, ON JULY 20TH, 2022

  The Naev DevTeam is pleased to announce the release of Naev version 0.9.4. With this release, the Naev 0.9 branch is definitely maybe free of bugs. In case you find one anyway, please report on this tracker, and feel free to join our Discord or Matrix (chat rooms). There’s no new content here, aside from stunning progress by the volunteer translators in the community. The new content has instead gone into pre-releases of Naev 0.10, and our attention for the rest of 2022 will be on finishing that.

  You can get the latest release, and nightly 0.10-alpha builds, from any of the following sources:

  

  

  

  

  
  

  Changes since 0.9.3

  • Fix “No error.” log spam with certain video card drivers
  • Fix Lua errors with tiny nebula such as Sarcophagus
  • Fix fake transponder cheesing rehabilitation missions
  • Fix errors in “Anxious Merchant”, “Dead Or Alive Bounty”, “Harja’s Vengeance”, and “The Lost Brother” missions
  • Fix the in-game screenshot feature, in case of odd window dimensions
  • Fix at least “Dvaered Diplomacy” glitching when the game is saved/reloaded (thanks to “Duke” on the Steam forums)
  • Update translations, including a new Spanish translation

• Naev 0.9.3

  BY NAEV DEVTEAM, ON APRIL 3RD, 2022

  The Naev DevTeam is satisfied to announce the release of Naev version 0.9.3. This release addresses issues and bugs from the 0.9.2 release and does not add any new content. It is highly recommended to update from 0.9.2 as soon as possible. In particular, two fairly important bugs involving game hanging sometimes when entering certain nebula systems and crashes have been fixed.

  Although it has been heavily tested, there are almost certainly still bugs around, please report any issues on this tracker, and feel free to join our Discord or Matrix (chat rooms).

  You can get the latest version from any of the following sources:

  • Fix errors/slowdown in Diversion from (…) missions
  • Fix bug in “Waste Collector” mission
  • Fixed a bug that allowed the player to get infinite escorts

• Naev is now on Matrix!

  BY NAEV DEVTEAM, ON FEBRUARY 8TH, 2022

  Over the past few weeks we have been experimenting with bridging our Discord community to Matrix; an open network for secure, decentralized communication. Please note that Discord will continue working as normally.

  Why would we do this?

  The answer to that is two-fold:

  Matrix, by design is decentralised, which means anyone can host their own server and have control over their data. For some people this may be the reason they refuse to use Discord entirely.

  If something bad happens to Discord we will have some record of the discussions that have been had since these two networks have been bridged, and have an alternative place to discuss Naev.

  What do you mean by ‘bridging’?

  To cater to individuals who dislike Discord and to increase our presence online we decided to create a Matrix community and bridge it to our Discord. This means that any messages sent on either platform will be synchronized between the two. This includes edits, mentions, and more.

  What is this Matrix thingy?

  To learn more about Matrix, check out their handy Introduction guide.
