Oolite Bulletins

Hey people. Yeah, the minute hand of my interests swung away from Oolite. Still play it, but just not as much. Sorry to hear some of my packs have problems. Please forgive me, they were the work of a noob! If anyone has taken the time to correct them, let me know (or link to a dl site) and i'll be h...

The stderr tells you if you have too many faces or verts and helpfully tells you by how many is too many.

I had a similar idea a way back that you could fool thargoids into thinking you were a thargoid but you risked being attacked by non thargoids. I suppose you could run the same ploy for pirates.

@AB: I love your megaships. They look crazy

Thanks!

Ok! will check over the weekend.

Yeah, Griff is right, for some reason it saved as a txt file.

Re-downloaded.

Edit: You have to make sure you have 'all files' selected. For some reason the default was 'text'. Done anyway, so thanks again.

bugger. back to the boring droad!

Maybe we should have a handy thread listing for all ship names. I know we have the list on the wiki, but that's not complete nor as easily editable as the other pages either.

Damn.

ps. I sense doubt.




J/k :p

Would it be possible to program a station so that you can fly into it, choose from a list of custom paint jobs and fly out again?

Shipyard oxp is practically finished (just need to place that damn dock correcly!) I would like you to send me your wing models of one of your ships. I want to add them as frangibles/addedbits to the main model. There will be one shipyard per galaxy and about 4 or 5 unfinished ships per shipyard. Un...

Tech question: I just got the free version of terragen 2 the landscaper prog. it seems (i've only read a bit of the manual so far) you can make planets with it. I wonder if you can convert them to dat files and import them directly or just use the image maps. Hmmmmmmm. /taps lips

ships is easy, missions is hard. Most people who want to oxp either struggle with the more complex nature of mission oxps (i am, but I'll get there :) ) or stop at making models because the effect is more noticeable sooner, plus models are easier to chect to see if they are working and so forth, mak...

Just in case you didn't know, you can 'lasso' areas of faces to delete/amend for fast editting as well as holding down the left mouse to 'collect' lines and vertices.

This will make editing less of a pain in Wings 3d

@Ramirez: Nice models!

How about a Hub station to be placed in the safety zone that work like an aircraft hub for very big ships. People could transfer to the hub by small shuttles and get on the big Cruise ships via the hub. Anyway I love the megaships. The models are quite original. I just wish that the textures where ...
