Oolite Bulletins

I do think the energy bomb should just disable everybody's (user included) lasers for a short period though. I only use it when I'm about to die but even so it's given me a fair few kills... I agree it is very powerful!! used one for the first time yesterday while being swarmed by three pirates(I t...

I ran a quick check within windows(search) and only came up with one instance: 'mortrantex' (a png texture file) in: .........Oolite\AddOns\Lave.oxp\textures Is that good enough or shall I role out notepad++ and check the plist files? I'll check next time if I only get the CTD on entry to Lave. Now ...

I suspect that as I get into Oolite more I will end up trying to do the oxp thing. I might even have a go at creating the Galactic Falcon and running a mission for it?(thats at the ambitious end at the momment - I haven't yet experienced a mission in Oolite so don't know quite what can be done). But...

"Oolite OXP transports v2.1 murgh feb5.2006 added shipdata frequency odds (less frequent) shrunk imagesizes added escorts, added descriptions comms improved AI scripted routes, tweaked appearancy odds" That's the readme of the one i'm using, got it from the wiki I think. It could just be c...

Does anyone know where to find the Generation Ships OXP? The Wiki turns up an upload page :( I've seen some pictures on this board and I would like to see one in "real life". Glad you found the file, I've picked it up as well - looking forward to meeting one of them. Are the Hueij i know ...

ok well I can narrow the search down to the last 20+ oxp's I added to my build as I wasn't getting those references in the stderr when I had my original 40 oxp's. As far as I can tell it's not causeing any big issues as my current game(15 jumps worth) has been stable. I looked again at putting trans...

EDIT: just a quick confirmation that using the newer Cargo_wrecks_v1.3.1 And removing the transports.oxp fixed the crashes. The old Cargo_wrecks had a bug. It was not the piratestash that crashed things, but it pointed to the "nubarrel.dat" file. That is a file in murgs X-ships.oxp. When ...

Aha thanks - i've been waiting all day for that :D I just picked on Piratestash because it was the only new thing(and always the last) that got reported on stderr, right before a crash. I'll try that newer version of cargo wrecks and see if that makes a difference. But you are right - it could be an...

After trying and failing to make an Elite type game on my zx81 back in the early 80's, I later found the real deal on my mates BBC micro and was instantly hooked. My sadness at not getting a port to the Atari 800 has left a permanent scar that has only been soothed in recent years by playing the Eli...

......edit...... Other crashes you see under 1.65 were often caused by pointing to non existing files. In most cases the buggy OXP's were pointing to datafiles or ships in an other OXP. The author had those extra installed, but if you don't have them, oolite may crash on those OXP's at the moment h...

I can confirm that the firefly is in the swift.oxp - and very uber it is too! You might want to look at the model though, it's very nice.

His models+textures are very, very good mind you. I find(so far, fingers crossed) that Kestral+Merlin seem ok, i just reduce their top end speed. But yeah it was Orb.oxp that caused my only Oolite CTD. As his models are so good i might start with these oxps and do a little bug-hunting when i'm ready...

Excellent! Thanks for that swift response from both yourself and Cap'n Hack

Now to try even more oxps until Oolite explodes, or my pc becomes a self aware Thargoid AI!

ah ok thanks for that, and yes i'm using 1.65 at the moment. Yeah i noticed all the DTD's in stderr before i had the crashes, so i figured they were not important as such.

Hi Taedal, I'm newish to the oxp thing also and have been trying as many as I can. I've only found one that definately caused me a crash(Orb.oxp) but that could be because it was relying on another oxp i didn't have? Anyway I've got all the ones I want until Oosat1's files can be got at again, and I...
