Sussed it!! unpacking the zip file of some of the oxps created another folder inside of which is the actual oxp. I just hadn't noticed the lack of '.oxp' as the symbol used for both .oxp files and folders is the same by default on my box.
Thanks for your help

Thanks for the reply but I am sure that the AddOns location is being read correctly as the 'Your Ad here' oxp is definitely working and is in the same place as the Tiger.oxp. I also dont have any trouble accessing the transfered save files its just they wont load. Instead of the rotating ship I get ...

Been happily totting up kills in my Tiger using ubuntu (various flavours) and Ooolite 1.65 for a while now, recently though I decided to move the game to a different machine and upgrade to the latest version. I'm now using 1.72.2 on Ubuntu 8.10 installed via the Autopackage installer. It all seems t...

Deposed mission, Am I missing something? (spoiler warning)

is there anything else to do other than kill the three black widows? I thought I read something about finding something beyond the navigation waypoint. Only asking as I have killed all three at least twice in the same jump and a couple more times having to hyperspace out and back in again. There is ...

Thanks for that, I have added the line and removed the lines from my saved folder, do I need to be back at the station where the mission was originally triggered to initiate it or will it start at any station? TIA <edit> Belay my last, mission just started properly!! Woot woot! Thanks for the help

Thanks for the welcome and quick reply, used to play Elite on the old BBC b so was chuffed to bits to find Oolite as a Linux port. Unfortunately I am running 1.3, looks like it could be a bit of a bug then? Not sure if its relevant but I'm running Ubuntu 7.04 and as you are probably aware some of th...
