Oolite Bulletins

If that's the ship I think it is, before you claim salvage; pick up some mops, a s**t ton of bleach and down a few anti-psychotics before you board. Unless of course you enjoy wearing barbed wire 3 sizes too small and playing jump rope with your own intestines....... I managed to get an enhancement...

Hello, what's going on here then?

With my appreciation and compliments to all coders/artists who made these screenshots possible. <Getafix is bowing> Approaching to Esveor... http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/l573/ksykas/OoliteForumScreenshots/Esveor-0511000.png Ooh, first time back in a long time and I see one of my planet textu...

OMG! I just discovered that my computer can do this with my own photo collection as a screensaver on the fly ! :shock: I'm presuming you're a Mac user then? 8) Yes, and not yet familiar with all features of Snow Leopard, it seems. :wink: (I updated only three months ago.) I didn't know it could do ...

I'm running Oolite on a 2GHz Core Duo iMac with 4GB of RAM and an ATi RadeonX1600 (128MB) graphics chip. The only complaint I have is with those big shipyards with the rotating rings and spinning ships outside them. Slows my game right down. Any chance of a redesign of those things?!?

An interesting line was about how Zuse had to "reinvent himself" after the events of the original Tron (which he remembers). Given that Tron himself was ported from the old Encom system (where Tron took place) does that mean that Zuse was ported over too? If so, who was he?? There were a ...

I wasn't expecting Casablanca, so I walked in with the expectation that I would be entertained. I was thoroughly entertained. I wonder how Quorra will SPOILER this text is in case you didn't see the word spoiler, I wonder how Quorra will fit into the outside world. And seeing as Sam now has the Grid...

OK people - I've trawled back through the YAH thread and extracted 50 'verts for Set H, there is sadly a lot of dead images (Stromboli and Pangloss in particular) and a couple that were never "fixed" to a satisfactory standard and I've therefore not included. I moved all my Photobucket Oo...

I was inspired by CLU2's outfit in the TRON:Legacy trailers. http://img257.imageshack.us/img257/7364/sonsteamclu.jpg Which led to me altering the standard Neolite Cobra III like this. http://i301.photobucket.com/albums/nn76/Jackpot070707/Oolite/cm3-neolite-default.png Which looks like this. http://i...

Oh, you were in the Quorra system. Vey popular with fans of Tron. (cough)

Why do i keep singing the title to this thread as a Beastie Boys chorus?

I experienced it just the other day, for the first time, after updating the Core Duo 2GHz to 10.6.3 (previously I was running the latest version of 10.5.x). Then I did a Software Update and downloaded all the 10.6.4 stuff (including all the latest security updates) and I haven't heard it since. Mayb...

Nice to know, thanks. It looks like it was orbits.oxp ...with that installed, the second planet wasn't displaying. So finding the Vintage Adder was very difficult (if you think of an area where the space between the planet/station and the sun is a box of 100 by 100 by 100 scannable regions ...that's...
