Oolite Bulletins

I'd love to post it up somewhere, but life has gone crazy right now, so I'm going to focus on that for a while. I really picked the wrong time to start learning to program as I'm learning technical short-hand right now (dyslexic draw back of learning one new way of reading at a time). When I do get ...

Thanks for all the replies! JazHaz: Yes I have checked and double checked all spellings and capitals, as I am using Linux I was aware of this, infact I wish I never put a capital letter at the beginning :P . I have also been holding shift at startup, so I know it's loading up with all the OXPs insta...

Hey all! I'm trying to make a new ship. I say new ship, but it's really a heavily modified Yelloo Taxi by Smivs (basically making a none taxi version, nice work by the way Smivs). It's taken me a while but I've finally got it working ingame and have bought one and am wizzing around in my own ship, v...

I'm not a massive Gold fan but since World of Tanks is coming soon and is free to gold members, then I'm defiantly going gold in the future. Also gold is giving free games out now, just downloaded Fable 3! Assassins Creed 2 will be soon, a game I would try but didn't want to buy. It's looking more a...

Is it time to install toilets in front of the telly?

As I live in a two xbox 360 house, I see the short comings of pure digital gaming in it's current format. I own Minecraft 360 edition, would be nice to system link it between rooms, but no I need a Gold membership to do that

I'm very happy that DRM has been scrapped, I simply couldn't see a truly legitimate to include it in the first place. As for disc and game usage, the xbox 360 has a great way of installing your game and then verifying ownership with the disc. This system doesn't seem broken enough to fix, the only a...

I was the cause of a darwinian death. I decided to sit in front of a stations docking bay with my hitch-hiking Adder, seeing how close I could get without smashing myself into oblivion. So I'm playing with my view and see a Python coming into dock. The Python gets really close and changes course to ...

- Is it possible to add more traffic between the planets and the witchpoint, or between planets?

I second this. Defiantly add traffic between witchpoint and planets. Could the AI of incoming traffic randomly select one of the stations? As for pirates and other ne'er-do-wells, way beyond me

Hello, thought I'd get on down here and introduce myself. My first excursions into the world of space trading occurred in the late 90s when my brother borrowed a copy of Frontier: First Encounters. Wasn't any good at it, maybe I was too impatient, or ignorant to the finer points of trading. I would ...

I think there needs to be an "Oops. Sorry!" OXP :P maybe try and get round those accidental mishaps. The amount of times I go to help a Python in distress, shoot them by mistake and have to flee the fuzz is all too regular for me. Maybe I need new glasses :oops: I find the law in games can...

Just been browsing Xbox live indie games and found "Odyssey 3011". Basically Elite for the Xbox 360. He has a web site http://www.odyssey3011.net/ I've played the trial and can say that a few things have been ripped right out of Elite (Cobra Mk III for one). As the trial is a flat 4 minute...

Hello! Yes I've just installed 1.77 and it worked first time in Lucid Puppy 528. I had great problems getting 1.76 working in Linux, to the point that it destroyed my full puppy install (still doesn't work right after several formats and re-installs). Now I have Oolite running purely in memory! Pret...

Welcome... If you override the default set with a replacement set, you will not see the default set again. I suppose you want to use the replacement Griff's to get the asteroids and stations replaced? Otherwise you could always use Griff's as an addition. If you are adventurous :D ... there's alway...

Hello all, this is my first post after scouring the forum for months. I have several texture based ship OXPs installed on Oolite v 1.76, and I use them in "addition" mode. I know that I can replace the main textures but I do like variety so having the default textures is nice. What I was h...
