Oolite Bulletins

...And if you edit the specular map with a colored scheme, you can also filter the color of the light reflected by the material. For the "Eagle Mk1", I'm working on a nice green/gold zinc texture. "Mk2" (that follow a yellow scheme) is damascus steel forged... ;) Today I have wri...

...Plus: today I've learned how the "specular map" works.

I'm refurbishing "MK1", working on "MK2" and I have no more a social life... Yippie-Ki-Yay!

I don't know if this is the correct place to post, but as 2D artist ( and Blender renderer, in a time/galaxy far far away... ;) ), I really can't resist to tune up/pimp my favourite ship: the "Eagle Long Range Fighter" (thanks to ADCK, for the addon). Now, after a pair of weeks of work, I'...

Isn't the whole point of these to add a 'stealth' element? Anything which alerts the player to a 'jammed' ship surely defeats the whole point of them. The "stealth" element is still present (and not ruined), with the incrased aiming difficult and the incapacity of using missiles (jammed s...

I understand the point.

What about a visualization workaround, in the meanwhile? Something like a custom blinking lollipop (color/black/color...) if the player has the Scanner Targeting Enhancement?

The top 10% get jammers which deny to lock it, a fun thing also but vulnerable to the laser attacks as others. Oh, my! Now I understand why sometime I'm not able to lock a ship!!! :) By the way, can I suggest you to add a message that announce this occurrence? Something like: " Target scramble...

Ok, now it's fixed.

By the way, the AI has a very high suicidal tendencies. My last patron has blindly attacked a nasty group of 10/15 of offender/fugitive ships only because they was flying in radar range... KABOOM. Reload.

This addon is really challenging, indeed.

On which OS, Marte? If it's your Mac this might be the same problem expanding mission text that afflicts Trading Assistant, but if its windows then Keeper has definitely messed up.

It's Windows, this time.

I've made a little "on the fly" test, and this is the result:



No values for reward/bonus for every mission (plus no hints in the log).

I don't konw if this addon is maintained and if the author is still around, but I need to say that is great to fly AGAIN on the Eagle Mk1! :) By the way, I think that in the pack there is a little issue with Eagles shaders. I mean, in deep space they are all colored, but if I browse ships selection ...

May be I have found a very little issue in the briefing screen.

If you use shaders, a rotating target ship is often colored and marked with a custom logo. If you try to accept the contract, when the text on screen change, the color/mark of the rotating ship changes too!

This addon is a real must have . Nice shot! Can I make two suggestions? 1) Add the option to target the source of the last communication. 2) Add a request to all ships in range to leave alone your target (useful if you need to hunt in a populated zone... :) ). ...Plus, an entry from my log: 18:44:15...
