Hi Noveans,
We just released a hotfix. Details of its content are below:
Bug Fixes
- [VFX] Fixed an issue where VFX would reappear while an element is broken upon relog or entering render range.
- [VFX] Fixed an issue where Assembly Line XS VFX would continue when running out of materials.
- [Mission System] Fixed description overflow in mission details.
- [Mission System] Fixed overflow of jobs chat messages that ended up preventing missions validation.
- [Mission System] Fixed table misalignments on the Job Forum tab.
Known Issues-
[VFX] VFX can reappear on destroyed elements after a reconnection or after moving out of render distance.[Fixed] - [VFX] Assembly line VFX may not be synchronized with model animations.
-
[VFX] Assembly line VFX can sometimes remain active when the assembly line runs out of material.[Fixed] - [VFX] The projected light of small holograms can become larger after repairing the destroyed hologram element.
- Since the 0.24.4 release, you may notice that there are materials (textures) that have a different look or they might appear less shiny (or shinier). This is due to changes that were made to standardize the materials to bring more consistency for those material types. Metals should look and behave like metals. We’ve also dialed down the glossiness so that it’s not as aggressive. Due to these adjustments, some players may find that textures they’ve used may appear ‘broken’ (though technically they aren’t) or that they are no longer aesthetically pleasing. You may want to spend some time reworking areas of your constructs where this is an issue. Some improvements have already been made and we’re still working on fixing this.
- Numerous French and German localization issues have already been spotted.
- A random rendering crash may occur under some conditions due to low GPU/driver resources. Setting shadows to ‘Low’ and disabling Volumetric Clouds in Graphic settings may help.
- Voxel crashes may occur due to low disk/memory.
- [Industries] The collision model of the recycling industry is incorrect
- [Industries] Talents that impact ingredients of schematic products are not displayed client-side, but the schematic updates with the server schematic when starting.
- [Industries] Some inconsistencies in schematics and tiered elements.
- [Industries] Industry units are still active while being broken [New].
- [Industries] Industry units still reappear while the element is broken upon relog or entering rendering range [New].
- [Screens] Transparent screens display as solid white when loading in close proximity.
- [Screens] High-frequency text updates on screens cause text to not display or flash.
- [Elements] In certain situations, elements unload at high speeds.
- [Crash] Triggering a detection zone after maneuvering the construct it is attached to leads to a crash.
- Various lighting, shadow, and reflection issues might be seen due to ongoing rendering rework.
- A large amount of industries may cause the sound subsystem to run into a sound emitter limit, causing major performance issues.
- Logging off or Exiting to Desktop uncommonly triggers the crash reporter.
DU is now in 0.25.9 version. Thanks for your support!Cheers,

Hi Noveans,
Today, we release the 0.25.8 version of Dual Universe. We named it the "Hermes Update" (which is codenamed after the Deity, messenger of the Greek gods). You'll see why with the changelog below:
New Features
-
Mission System: Thanks to community feedback, we know that players have been looking for more ways to make money. The Mission System will provide those opportunities in a number of ways that suit a wide swath of playstyles and experience. Intent:
- Offer new ways for players, especially new players, to make money.
- Allow merchants to focus on creating goods rather than spending time traveling to markets to sell their wares.
- Give those who enjoy traveling a lucrative reason to take to those beautiful, wide-open skies.
- Create more traffic in space, hence more opportunities for pirates.
- Help organizations coordinate internal work.
The long-term goal is to enrich the Mission System with more mission types, starting with “taxi” missions, SOS, and later adding PvP and various other “formalizable” activities. For now, we’re introducing the Mission System with transport-type hauling missions.
It all starts with the Mission Panel, a dedicated dashboard tab for job and hauling missions. It is equivalent to other dashboard tabs such as the Organization dashboard tab. Within the Mission Panel, you’ll find the "Job Forum" section and the "Hauling" section. Each of these contains a similar page: a home page, a search page, a creation modal, etc. More details about this new feature are available in this devblog: https://www.dualuniverse.game/news/devblog-missionsystem
- Hauling Missions: These are repeatable hauling activities that allow players to earn some quanta. To access these missions, you will need to find the Aphelia Mission Hub on every planet. From there, you’ll be able to access missions from an NPC (Alphelia) or other players via the Mission System UI. These missions adhere to a particular list of parameters that includes specific locations, time limits, and collateral.Some will be easy, requiring you to simply carry light and small packages across a planet, while others will be more difficult, asking you to transport heavier and larger packages across the darkness of space.
- Challenges: In the VR surrogate station, the “Challenges'' tab now has the Air Delivery Challenge. Players can earn quanta by using the provided vehicles to complete a series of deliveries from ground constructs to a floating airbase.
-
New ART assets and VFXs:
-
Tool modes VFX
- New FX for the tool. Every specific tool mode now has unique FX on the tool itself and on the object targeted.
- Uses for tools in-hand will be more intuitive.
- In addition to all of the new FX, we upgraded some textures and recalibrated some global colors in order to closely follow the global AD to make it more immersive and fun.
-
Industry VFX
- Added new 3D creation FX for our Industry family. These visualizations for printers, assembly lines, and metalwork units will bring some life into the crafting process.
- We also took the opportunity to upgrade the previous state FX with some subtle adjustments.
-
Element VFX
- New FX on Bac Deco plants, with a new light system and subtle fogger activated in order to maintain their green value.
- New FX on the famous bonsai with some magnetic greenfield to make it levitate.
- New subtle engine/beam FX on the little Arkship model.
- New FX for all in-game hologram projections with some top notch, high-quality improvements such as signal interferences and air dust, boosted by a bigger and more accurate light projector.
- New FX for the resurrection node.
- New FX when the hatch is opened.
- New FX when the industrial door is opened.
- New FX when the interior door is opened.
- New FX for the elevator.
- New FX for the VR station with the text rotating around the pod when connected.
- New engine variation texture skins (military/safe/freight/maneuver).
- Fixed a bug where the landing gears icons were the wrong size.
- Fixed a bug where the material on plantdeco 01 was incorrect.
- Fixed a bug where the airbrakes textures weren't displaying correctly.
- Fixed a bug on the bonsai where the LODs weren’t displaying correctly.
- Fixed a bug on canopies, especially glasses, where the opacity was too low and VFX couldn’t pass through.
- Fixed a bug on canopies & metal canopies triangles where the contact surfaces weren’t placed correctly.
- Fixed and updated the elevator glass & emissive settings to better opacity and VFX visibility.
-
Fixed a bug that was affecting the collision for space radar/gunner seat/transponder unit/canon laser L&S /cannon railgun L&S.
-
Tool modes VFX
Improvements
- Reduced bandwidth usage in PvP. This should improve performance while pewpewing.
- Improved digging in multiplayer scenario.
-
Added a new setting to activate more voxel logs to help us debug invalid version issues. It can be found in the game settings, in the ‘general’ tab and its ‘support’ section This setting should only be enabled in the event of voxel issues such as ‘Invalid Cell Versions’ and ‘Unknown Server Errors’ while working with voxels following a request to enable and reproduce from our Customer Support Team.
Gameplay Balancing/Changes
- [IMPORTANT] Organization votes will now pass if 2/3 of expressed votes are yes. This will allow deadlocked orgs to be unstuck due to absent legates.
-
Updated the roadmap on the login screen.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed light unit shadow artifacts.
- Fixed a performance regression in HUD rendering.
-
[Industry] Fixed the metalwork industry unit lights staying white.
Known Issues
- [VFX] VFX can reappear on destroyed elements after a reconnection or after moving out of render distance.

Hi Noveans!
Today, we release the first 0.25 version of DU on the Live Server. As with the 0.24 updates, the full content of the 0.25 will be released incrementally. Features coming later include the Mission System and Challenges. Today's version is marked as 0.25.5 and is mostly focused on the performance and database storage improvements we mentioned in our recent blogposts. You'll find its changelog below:
Improvements
- We have implemented large, fundamental changes in how voxels are stored server-side, optimizing and improving player bandwidth usage going forward.
- Introduced level of detail (LOD) for constructs in the distance. Ships and bases in the distance will now load and display a lower resolution version of the mesh. This should improve framerate in some places and allow for faster loading times overall.
- [Settings] FPS limit has been enabled by default to prevent some GPU overuse when Vsync is not enabled when the game is minimized or while in the main menu. The option to disable the limit is available in the game settings.
- [GUI] Polish of Repair Unit panel.
- [Anti-Cheat] Added a clear error message when game files are corrupted.
- Added an example for how to use the "/emote_name" command to avoid confusion.
- Construct key no longer has the "delete item" context menu action. (It was wrongly displayed since a construct key can not be deleted.)
- Item inspector now displays the scale of the item in the name of the item.
- Data size of decors (grass, tree, rocks, etc.) received from the network, stored and computed is now smaller.
- [GUI] RDMS panel polish.
- Small performance improvement on element display.
- Optimized industries rendering for big factories.
- Added a warning notification when there is no price set and no batch defined for a player dispenser.
- [Market] Added line separator between orders list.
- [Market] Set default value to the maxQuantity.
- [GUI] Implemented wallet shortcut in the global menu and in settings.
- Quick polish for Surrogates panel.
- Changed jetpack icon/polish of quick status.
- Polish for RDMS Tag Manager Panel:
- Added an item icon node to the left of the description.
- Removed the title above the tag manager item node wrapper.
- Polish of crafting UI.
- Added new and last ground textures replacements in order to complete our full upgrade for the planetary ground visuals.
Gameplay Balancing/Changes
- Talent adjustments
Over the past several weeks, we have identified several talents that were not behaving as expected or intended. Many of these issues have since been addressed; however, we have since discovered that there was an error in the calculation for the following percentage-based talents, and we have deployed a fix for them now.
These are:
- Element Healthpoint Talents
- Engine Power Talents
- Organization Construct Management Talents
Where previously these talents were Base Value * Percentage Talent 1 * Percentage Talent 2, they are now Base Value * (Percentage talent 1 + Percentage talent 2). This is most notable for the Organization Construct Management talents where the new maximum amount of constructs is 275 for a single organization with all talents at maximum.
Should your organization go over the currently available capacity, your constructs will not be affected. The organization will be unable to deploy constructs for that organization until your talents allow you to go beyond the currently deployed construct count, either by increasing the talents or reducing the number of deployed constructs.
There are a small number of organizations that currently go beyond the maximum. We will reach out directly to notify them of their current construct count.
- Non-deletable items can no longer be put into a package. (The only item that is affected by this change is the construct key.)
-
The /unstuck command now has a four-second unstuck screen.
Crash Fixes
- Fixed a rare random crash that occurred during gameplay.
- Fixed rare race condition in procedural generation that could crash the client if you tried to exit it at the very beginning of loading screen.
Bug Fixes
- Fixed claimed fuel that couldn't be retrieved from a fuel container.
- Fix on Notifications panel (cross button/arrow issue).
- Various adjustments and bug fixes in tutorials.
- Fixed blueprints not applying current placement talents on elements when deploying the construct.
- Fixed the Arkship vertical alignment with its own VFX and some minor other adjustments.
- Fixed sounds that are triggered by animations and that were not being played on elements such as doors, airlocks, gates.
- Link tool: Link direction is chosen automatically for elements where only one direction is possible, like fuel tanks and engines.
- Disabled Settings button when login attempts are ongoing.
- Fixed color text input in character customization and creation.
- Fixed automatic read transition for recently acquired hints.
- Fixed auto-selection of "Combat" tab when starting piloting.
- Fixed a bug where Surrogate Pod UI remained after leaving a surrogate session.
- Fixed localization on surrogate tabs.
- [GUI] Fixed serif font issues on several interfaces.
- [GUI] Fixed mouse raycast tooltip: When you hover over a tab menu shortcut, a "description" appears next to the cursor. If you close the menu while this text box is present, it will remain displayed indefinitely until you press TAB again.
- Fixed a bug causing the game to close just after an error popup is shown but before anyone gets the time to read them.
- [Tutorials] Various bug fixes for tutorials
- Fixed big freeze upon entering build mode on some ships.
- [Art] Fixed the Surrogate Pod Station red texture.
- [Art] Fixed the Arkship collision mesh.
- Fixed tutorial panel close button.
- Fixed tutorial panel restart button.
- Fixed intro cinematics that were missing for new players before and after creating an avatar.
- Fixed a rare barter validation button issue.
- Fixed style for bookmark descriptions in bottom left display of the bookmark info.
- The HUD left menu no longer blocks the mouse pointer input when not visible; fixed an issue with setHTML on 16:10 screen aspect ratio
- Fixed dispenser issue with set price modal where they sometimes registered x100 of the value or sometimes the value change was not registered at all.
- [GUI] Fixed some missing font styles on some elements in Inventory and Lua editor.
- [PvP] Fixed weapon shots occasionally failing at higher talent levels.
- Fixed wrong appearance of safe zone indicator when leaving gunner seat while on a planet. The safe zone indicator should now be displayed while in the gunner seat if you are not on a planet (and if on a planet, players should see the minimap).
Miscellaneous
- Temporarily deactivated voxel cache size limit.
Known Issues
- Since the 0.24.4 release, you may notice that there are materials (textures) that have a different look or they might appear less shiny (or shinier). This is due to changes that were made to standardize the materials to bring more consistency for those material types. Metals should look and behave like metals. We’ve also dialed down the glossiness so that it’s not as aggressive. Due to these adjustments, some players may find that textures they’ve used may appear ‘broken’ (though technically they aren’t) or that they are no longer aesthetically pleasing. You may want to spend some time reworking areas of your constructs where this is an issue. Some improvements have already been made and we’re still working on fixing this.
- Numerous French and German localization issues have already been spotted.
- A random rendering crash may occur under some conditions due to low GPU/driver resources. Setting shadows to ‘Low’ and disabling Volumetric Clouds in Graphic settings may help.
- Voxel crashes may occur due to low disk/memory.
- [Industries] Talents that impact ingredients of schematic products are not displayed client-side, but the schematic updates with the server schematic when starting.
- [Industries] Some inconsistencies in schematics and tiered elements.
- [Screens] Transparent screens display as solid white when loading in close proximity.
- [Screens] High-frequency text updates on screens cause text to not display or flash.
- [Elements] In certain situations, elements unload at high speeds.
- [Crash] Triggering a detection zone after maneuvering the construct it is attached to leads to a crash.
-
Various lighting, shadow, and reflection issues might be seen due to ongoing rendering rework.
As always, thank you for your support!

Hello Noveans,
We just released the 0.24.7 update. Please find the changelog below:
New Features
- Fixed blueprints not applying current placement talents on elements when deploying the construct
- Added “RMB > Construct > "Reapply talents on construct"
- Added “RMB > Advanced > "Reapply talents on element"
This would reapply the player’s talents to every element of a construct or to a specific element, respectively.
Improvements
- Three new tutorials are available in the "Tutorials" tab of the VR Station: Gunnery tutorial, RDMS tutorial, and Advanced Construction tutorial.
- Construct fetching is back. You may fetch a construct within 4km once every 24 hours if your character is standing on the ground.
-
New chat features and polish:
- Auto joins previously joined chat channels.
- Added a new default “Help” channel. It is non-mandatory, meaning it can be left and joined at will.
- The old mandatory “Support” channel is now called “General”.
- Added /help command to display the list of available chat commands.
- Added a small, system text at the beginning of each channel to inform the player of the presence of the "/help" command.
- The last active chat channel is now selected by default. If unavailable, Help and then General will be selected instead.
- Tweaked wording for "Local" tab tooltip, you only see a message from avatar within sight.
- Changed ordering of chat tabs. The new order is:
- General, Local, Help (if present), Lua, Tutorials, Constructs, and Organizations tabs, then other custom rooms (i.e. private message or joined room by /join).
- Container element names are now visible in the container window when opened.
- Added the /unstuck command (with a five-minute cooldown) that will attempt to place you outside of any construct.
- Link tool: Link direction is chosen automatically for elements where only one is possible, like fuel tanks and engines
- Increased max voxel cache size for 1GB to 12GB (should improve performance in some cases)
Bug Fixes
- Fixed a bug where the CarbonFiber Bright & Matt materials (textures) weren’t tiling correctly. We took the opportunity to upgrade the general look of them.
- Fixed a bug where some Galvanized Metals materials (textures) had a strong visible pattern from a distance and some reflectivity issues. Steel, iron, chromium, gold, and titanium now have new textures to fix the issues and a more realistic rendering.
- Fixed truncated line on talent notifications.
- Fixed the display of the logs when the player reopens the wallet window.
- Fixed RDMS manager missing information in the inspector view after editing a policy or an actor.
- Fixed being unable to create buy/sell orders with a different wallet.
- Adjusted the UI for the survey screen.
- Fixed a bug on saving chat setting not being correctly saved sometimes (or even reset on next login sometimes).
Known Issues- Please be advised that we are aware of a situation where some players have experienced issues with constructs having disparities between Build mode and Non-Build mode honeycomb meshes. After investigation, we were able to identify and resolve the issue; however, we are unable to restore the damage done to the currently affected constructs. Should you find a new occurrence that was not present before this patch, please notify us via a Support ticket immediately. We’re sorry for the inconvenience.

Hello Noveans,
A big update is available today. DU is now in 0.24.3 version and it's packed with many improvements and fixes (and more are on the way for future updates as well):
New Features
- New launcher
One of the first things you’ll notice when you log in is that we’ve begun to revamp the launcher for now, changes are mostly to improve information about the game and for cosmetic purposes. Over the course of future updates, we intend to improve how it operates to bring more fluidity and speed. This will take a while, but we hope you’ll like what you’re seeing so far.
-
Not a feature per se, but we greatly improved lots of visual assets in the game.
- New kinds of plants and trees to improve diversity
- New kinds of rocks
- New ground textures
- Underwater look and visibility improvements
-
New voxel tools and improvements:
- Smooth erosion (by default: Area smooth tool + Alt key)
- Cone shape (by default: E key. This is an addition to the existing shape cycle)
- Negative paste function (by default: Alt key with a copied/cut shape)
- Remove with Line tool function ((by default: Alt key when using the Line tool)
-
Organizations Wallet
- Organizations now have a proper wallet and can own quanta.
- The Edit Wallet right enables players to manage the wallet of an organization.
-
Wallets can be managed in a dedicated interface. Here they can :
- Send money to any other player or organization.
- Consult their wallet log that lists all the operations that happened to their wallet.
- Package function
You can now select several items in a container and create a package by selecting 'Create package' with a right-click. You can assign a name to that package and all selected items will now be bundled as a new single item. You can revert the operation by right-clicking on the package item and using the 'Unpack package' option. After that, the package will be opened and suppressed and the items will go back into their original container, although they will not be in the exact same spots where they were previously. This will be a component in the upcoming Mission system feature that will be released in a future 0.24 update, but it may be useful now to help to organize a container (whether you have OCD or not).
-
Challenges
- Introduction of a prototype of "challenges" which are repeatable activities with a potential reward (only available in English for now).
- The first challenge, “Delivery Challenge”, is available and can be accessed using the new “Challenges” tab on the VR Surrogate Station menu.
-
Metal canopies
-
We’ve introduced a new type of metal canopy for more customization in shipbuilding. These are:
- Canopy Metal corner S
- Canopy Metal corner M
- Canopy Metal corner L
- Canopy Metal flat S
- Canopy Metal flat M
- Canopy Metal flat L
- Canopy Metal tilted S
- Canopy Metal tilted M
- Canopy Metal tilted L
- Canopy Metal triangle S
- Canopy Metal triangle M
- Canopy Metal triangle L
-
We’ve introduced a new type of metal canopy for more customization in shipbuilding. These are:
- Implemented short in-game survey
Your opinion matters. From time to time, you’ll have an opportunity to fill out a short in-game survey via a dedicated interface so you can simply and directly provide a rating to the game and what interests you. Thanks in advance for your feedback so we can improve Dual Universe!

Known Issues
- Please be advised that we are aware of a situation where some players have experienced issues with constructs having disparities between Build mode and Non-Build mode honeycomb meshes. After investigation, we were able to identify and resolve the issue. However, we are unable to restore the damage done to currently affected constructs. Should you find a new occurrence that was not present before this patch, please notify us via a Support ticket immediately. We’re sorry for the inconvenience.
- With this release, you may notice that there are materials (textures) that have a different look or they might appear less shiny (or shinier). This is due to changes that were made to correctly standardize the materials to bring more consistency and coherence for those material types. Metals should look and behave like metals. We’ve also dialed down the glossiness so that it’s not as aggressive. Due to these adjustments, some players may find that textures they’ve used may appear ‘broken’ (though technically they aren’t) or they are no longer aesthetically pleasing. You may want to spend some time reworking areas of your constructs where this is an issue. This being said, we, unfortunately, noticed at the last minute that some issues are noticeable in various cases. We’ll fix this ASAP!
- Numerous French and German localization issues have already been spotted.
- A random rendering crash may occur under some conditions due to low GPU/driver resources. Disabling Volumetric Clouds in Graphic settings may help.
- Voxel crashes may occur due to low disk/memory.
- [Industries] Talents that impact ingredients of schematic products are not displayed client-side, but the schematic updates with the server schematic when starting.
- [Industries] Some inconsistencies in schematics and tiered elements.
- [Screens] Transparent screens display as solid white when loading in close proximity.
- [Screens] High-frequency text updates on screens, cause text to not display or flash.
- [Elements] In certain situations, elements unload at high speeds.
- [Elements] Issue causing electronics industries to displace slightly.
- [Crash] Triggering a detection zone after maneuvering the construct it is attached to leads to a crash.
- Primary Container loses link after moving it far enough away from where it was originally linked
- In the new launcher, drop-down menus overlap in some situations
The team continues the hard work, thanks for your support!

Hi Noveans,
The r0.23 version is about to be released so here's its lengthy changelog to keep you busy. Go grab a cup of your favorite beverage and happy reading!
New Features
-
[Ship Building] “Canopies when?” How about now?
- [Industry] Added schematic items. Oh, by the way, yes, ‘recipes’ are now called ‘schematics’.
- [Industry] Industry units now have internal schematic banks for storing item schematics. An active schematic item must be present in the industry unit to craft that item. schematic items are available for purchase from the markets.
- Dispenser contents are now previewed before confirming batch purchase. Items can be inspected in this preview, in particular Blueprints.
Improvements
- Organization tiles on the map can now be visualized separately via dropdown menu. In “My Tiles”, personal tiles display in green while your Organization displays in blue.
- Players can now view map scanner results directly from their inventory by clicking on the corresponding tile (When 'scanner results from inventory' is chosen).
- Activating the “highlight frontiers on the map” option in the Graphics Settings allows to visualize frontiers between groups of similarly colored tiles, helping to better understand the extent of Orgs territories. This option is making the map display a bit slower, so is recommended for high end PCs only (disabled by default).
-
Various Art changes/additions/fixes:
- Fixed Atmo Vertical Booster L VFX direction
- Added Space Blueprint icon
- Fixed Gate M contact surface issue
- Fixed Elevator Ring Glass being white
