Oolite Bulletins

Since it seemed to run fine without any oxp's, and those PNG warnings are not in the stderr.txt, I guess that means some oxp's are not compatible with this version.

I will start dropping them in one by one and try to figure which ones are not compatible.

Oh good :D problems so far... I started it up, set up my joystick and went away for 10 minutes or so .. it dissappeared. I started again, and it crashed as soon as I left the station. The last bit of my stderr.txt file: 2007-07-15 10:54:32.000 oolite.exe[1136] [rendering.opengl.error]: OpenGL error:...

I am about to test this baby out, but I just want to know...

When swapping oxp's in and out of the AddOns folder, do I need to do anything else to make sure the game does not try to load ones I have taken out? I am figuring the 'hold shift during start up to reload cache' might do something.

hmm, what was I thinking?

I really like the views of the Drake, including the scoop cam, but I found I actually have an easier time with the normal interior view when trying to scoop stuff up.

Don't worry, give it time and I will come up with another idea for a different wheel.

Forgive me if this has been said before, but a cursory search showed if it had it was not recent. Since I am currently trying to tweak a custom view, it occured to me, why does each ship need it's own listing of a custom view? Would it be possible to have one custom view array available for ALL ship...

Well, my inept findings were - either something in eagle2, or blackmonks was a burden (or I reached a limit). It was odd because the FPS showed less objects and collisions and half the framerate I previously enjoyed, so I figure it was an AI thing. I left the black monks in, because it is well, amus...

They were kind of tasty once the fur was burnt off of them. I noticed though, that if I start a new pilot and trade my ship in, I get the offer immediately ... I swear Captain Hesperus can smell credits. I am also wondering if that is a complete oxp yet, it would be interesting to take the captain t...

Yep, they are getting developped right now ;) On another note... Something is giving me a stuttery performance hit, I guess trial and error to determine which oxp it is (unless it is the whole wack of them, thus defrag might help). And I better search about 'fullscreen' mode, and see if I can find o...

Hi. I've come across a couple times, ships that I can not target and that do not take any damage from lasers. I am using version 1.65 One of the ships was , I belive, a 'swift', I suppose I should really figure out what they were exactly. On other occasions, I will destroy a ship, but it's hulk will...

I do not think an autosave is a good idea, unless of course it was an option that those of us who loathe autosaves of all kinds can simply not install.

@TGHC I confess to eavesdropping on you vet pilots ( search works :D ) @ Commander McLane I found this on a day I did not want to think about something in particular, now I think the addiction has taken root. I did spend quite a few hours researching ship specs, studying trade routes, and advice on ...

heh heh I've played a lot of games, but oddly enough, never the original ELITE. a short list: tachyon StarControl (3 and 2) Vegastrike StarFlight Xwing Freelancer etc. Anyhoot.. I followed your advice LittleBear, and I have 79 oxp's. I think I really need to defrag. Seems every new pilot gets the sa...

I am happy I stumbled across Oolite. ***possible newb spoilers*** Day one So I spend way too much time on early missions. I eavesdrop on some pilots and discover the must haves for sanity, such as avoiding the heavy traffic lanes. I am much happier, and download a bunch of oxp's. I promptly get kill...
