Oolite Bulletins

Oh, great!

His Oolite stuff looks very good as well.

Yes, I do love his works.

Another good artist for traveller is Jesse.

I have now looked at the Elite RPG. Eventhough You say that it is a work in progress, I think it looks quite good. :-) However, Elite RPG looks like it was meant to play Elite without a computer. It also has its own game mechanics. I want to use Oolite as background data for playing Traveller. There...

For tech-level I intend to use the Classic Traveller rules.
You can find a description at the traveller wiki:

So TL-1 means Bronze Age.

Hi Again! I once had a great idea about building a gigantic OXP so that I could play in the Traveller Universe. I asked for some help here (and on other boards), but I didn't get enough help. I couldn't build this OXP by myself. Thanks to all who did help me! That project is on hold right now. My ne...

Thank you all for all help so far. A number of traveller players has offered to help out with this project. I hope this project will be fun to do and that the result will be an enjoyable modification. A thread has also been started at the CotI-boards . Edit: Yahoogroup @ url: http://games.groups.yah...

Thank you for all help so far.

I really should stop hijacking this thread and start my own now...

dajt: Thank You for your answer. Then we can find a better starting position in a better galaxy. Then we could use different Oolite galaxies as different part of the traveller universe. Is there an example anywhere on how to edit a save file? Ahruman: Thank You for that answer. I have also been aske...

There are some persons that are interested in helping me with this project. Now they are asking me for a polygon budget (and texture limits).

What would work without choking Oolite?

Thank You for your welcome and support.

I will set up a project page and recruit some help.

I'll keep You informed, and will probably get back to you with more questions.

Thank You for the answers. The answer of question-1 was the answer I expected. The answer of question-2 was not what I hoped for, but it really doesn't matter. For question 3 and 4, it was good to hear that it could be done. There is nothing like it in the Traveller RPG. After the suggestion to read...
