Oolite Bulletins

The firmware of the 360 controller *might* need updating, but that’s all I can suggest at the moment without a controller to test with. There's no way to update/check the XBox 360 controller firmware without an XBox 360 - even the XBox Accessories App for Windows does not support this controller an...

Maybe he chopped his wires in half with that sword of his.... ?

With that hood over his beak he might well have problems seeing where he is going...

Ironically, I currently have an eye infection (off to hospital tomorrow)!

When I direct connect my XBox One controller, it immediately shows up in Oolite as the current joystick. Does that not happen for you? Nope - the XBox 360 Controller shows up as HIDI2C inside Oolite and none of the buttons or axes are recognised. If I unplug the 360 controller and plug in my Extrem...

Wired/USB (apologies for delayed response).

It should be possible. I’ve got some XBox one controllers lying around so I might have a go at setting one of them up and report what I find. The process should be similar for an XBox 360 controller. Thank you. I was surprised it didn't so I figured I was just being a numpty. So if you do work out ...

Apologies if this has been discussed before - I promise I did search the whole site for XBox first and then narrowed the search further... Is it possible to use an XBox 360 controller in Oolite? I went to Joystick mapping in-game and it doesn't recognise any of my stick waggles or button presses so ...

Hi Guys, it's been a really long time since I posted here - the story is long and not for this thread - that aside, thanks to @selezen for the heads up - I've put it in my diary and I fully attend to be there (life notwithstanding). It will be amazing to catch up - haven't seen so many of you since ...

All sorted, thanks Cool! Although the OXP follows the tale fairly well, this is Hollywood, and the screenplay does differ somewhat, here and there. Perhaps a kindly Mod could add a warning to the OP: if you use Griff's shipset, do not install the Coyote's Run for Griff OXP contained within the .zip...

Nice - I may have to print this at <cough> work <cough>...

So how many other Ooliters are in on the new Kickstarter? I'm going to have to let Dan sort out my Veteran uplift - since I've pledged for boxed set of four hardbacks but already pledged for paperbacks of Drew's and Allen Stroud's books (and I have two versions of Fusion already (Kindle and a Smashw...

So how does the wife feel about that caterpillar on your lip, Drew? Will you be allowed to keep it when Movember is over?

No. She hates it.

Cheers,

Drew.

Yup, that seems to be a common feature of our Mo Sistas... (my wife is struggling to look at me at the moment...)

She was a great writer, and the only winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature to have written sci-fi (I think) - Canopus in Argos: Archives was strangely excellent.

My wife told me just a few minutes ago. We're losing a lot of great SF writers this year!
