Oolite Bulletins

I love those textures, really nice for those without shader support. Good work

The Retro HUD looks great too, but I had to change one thing to make it work. I had to rename "Base.png" to "base.png" - it's not the same on some systems.

I think this is a nice idea. One thing I liked about Frontier was the small ship you started with, so a Cobra Mark III would be something to work for. In Oolite I don't feel the need to buy a new ship, because the Cobra is a great all-rounder. An option to start with a smaller ship would be an inter...

While it wouldn't be as fast as a single key press - would it be possible to implement (at some point post-MNSR) a single key stroke to bring up a menu. In this menu could then be stored additional functionality from OXPs that require/desire it and a simple scroll up/down + select methodology imple...

You're more than welcome to write a config file for yourself that uses only 'F'-keys and numerical keys - but as I think was clearly stated the issues are not with Oolite but with the libraries and I think rewriting these is a lot to ask of the devs! :wink: I didn't ask to rewrite any libraries. I ...

Thanks a lot!

Hello Greyman,
it would be great if you could post your keyconfig.plist. It might also be a good reference for people who have the same difficulties. I already changed some keys, but I still don't know if everything works as it should, as some keys only work with special equipment installed.

After playing for a few days I have some suggestions for Oolite: 1. Darker planets. I know the planets are procedurally generated, but it should be possible to reduce the darkness and/or saturation of the colors a little bit. I got the impression that all of the Planets are very bright. There are lo...

Thanks for your replies. I think I'll try some of these OXPs. ^ (the key under Escape) should do it for you. Strangely it doesn't. But I edited the keyconfig.plist and changed it to an unused letter, and now it works. I experimented a bit with this file to see if I could find out why it doesn't work...

Hello everyone, I've been playing Oolit for a few days now and really like it. I never played Elite (maybe too young), but I played Frontier a lot. Though I liked Frontier, Oolite is way more fun. :D But now I've got two simple questions: 1. The messages disappear very quickly and I haven't found a ...

I'd really like to try this out, so it would be great if anyone could upload this OXP temporarily.
These new textures just look fantastic

The ~/GNUStep folder can't be renamed/moved - this is a shared directory for all GNUStep applications which you use, not just Oolite. This is true indeed, I should have mentioned that. I didn't think of it, because for me this not a problem. I don't use any GNUstep applications except for Oolite. A...

I don't use two builds, I just wanted the directories to be hidden in the build I currently use

Here's a workaround for the moment. I have written a small bash script: #!/bin/bash mv .oolite-saves oolite-saves mv .GNUstep GNUstep oolite mv oolite-saves .oolite-saves mv GNUstep .GNUstep The script unhides the directories, starts oolite and hides them again when the game quits. Just put this scr...

Hi Problem - welcome to the boards - I don't appear to share your issue when I run Oolite under Ubuntu (7.10) - I just get the .oolite-saves dir. :? Maybe the Ubuntu packagers have changed this. I just installed Oolite 1.72.2 (autopackage from BerliOS) and still get the "oolite-saves" and...
