Oolite Bulletins

Now I'm back at Lave with a 100 credits and 0 kills. Gotta love this game. Ditto, it is nice in a way to have to manually dock again for a while, although I long ago ran out of cool names for my new commanders, partly naming them after star systems has not run out of milage yet. Absolutely love thi...

Were you gettting the accident version though or the npc kill version? I was getting the "Captain Smith has been introduced to the Lord Giles in a freak accident." version. I never got the better hunter version. My latest commander was killed again after slogging his way up to above avera...

Hi, Hope someone can help me: I have just started using v1.71.2 and when I press the button to toggle precision helm control, the ship imediately yaws to port continually until I turn it off again. Needless to say, this is not what you need when you're lining up to blow an oncoming pirate to pieces...

I don't have the Flying Dutchman OXP installed, I do have quite a lot of OXP's installed though. I didn't realise that the number of accidental deaths might represent a bug, the only other information I can think of that may be of use is that it was always quite a long time before I got the unfortun...

Thanks for the quick reply!

Hi, I have been playing LOCALHERO V1.05 oxp in oolite version 1.72 for a while now and although I often get the initial message upon docking a station with the instruction to go to f7 screen and wait for more info I have never had anything happen when I get to the f7 screen - sometimes I have waited...

Hi, I tried it again just now and had the same failure. I cleared my browser cache and tried again and it works, so sorry about that. :shock: I can now download all your oxp's. Thanks for your patience, I will repay it by fully enjoying playing the expansions. :) <edit>Well, Changed my Oolite experi...

Hmmmm. I downloaded asteroids and renegade pirates which I didn't have but when I try to download random hits I get the same out of bandwidth message. That was the one I was particularly after! Anyway, thought you should know.... :) Thanks again. <edit> I just checked and random hits 1.2 will downlo...

Ok.
Thanks for the excellent modding work.

@LittleBear
I bought a box account you can use for the file hosting as it seems to be out of bandwidth a lot.
PM or Email me with an e-mail address and I will then be able to add you as a user of a folder.

Thank you. It is appreciated.
I am not on-line, but this message posted by someone who is on my behalf. They relay to me oolite while I am where I am.
Cheers for the good work guys!

Well done indeed! Deserved.
Maybe time to start thinking about a signing system for releases and .oxp's maybe something a little gpg ish. So we know which ones are from where...
(me and my dodgy mind. sorry. Congrats Giles and thanks everyone)

In Oolite I am above average but I don't count it as a real rating as I have died in ways that to my mind count as a real Oolite death (playtesting dontcherknow). I made elite on the beeb, C-64, amiga and atari ST elites but out of those only the C-64 version was really done without gratuitous time ...

It warms my heart when people appreciate open office. I recently converted someone to the benefits of using portable open office installed on a USB stick. They were one in a million. Mostly people just look at me strange and ask me if I am on MSN or what... :roll: Gaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!! [emoticon banging...

Having been wondering what the result of all you guys work on this graveyard was for a while now I actually went and bought a nvidia fx5200 256mb pci card for my poor old 1gb integrated chipset no agp slot ex office dell (with money that my girlfriend would much rather I had spent elswhere...) so I ...
