I've just updated the wiki entry.

Thank you to Rxke for fixing this, and thanks to Richard for the time he has put in checking these older OXPs.
Thanks for the kind words! Glad to have helped. Rich.

Re: Maintenance Overhaul

How quickly does the maintenance level drop by 1%? Is it time based, jump based, or also increase due to "hull" damage (when hit with no shield up)? It is only based on hits at the hull with shields down. Sorry to drag this up again but I just had an offer of maintenance which surprised m...

Re: Spyhunter mission

Hi all I just went through this mission with 1.76.1 and no errors appear to have been generated at any point. From memory the OXP list entry is blank for 1.76 compatibility; can't check as it's not working right now but at least I can post the success story here. There's another thread about this mi...

"please report it" in the log

Hello I noticed this in the log 15:38:25.029 [general.error.inconsistentState]: ***** ERROR: status is STATUS_IN_FLIGHT, but dockedStation is not nil; treating as docked. This is an internal error, please report it. I can't quite remember what was going on at the time. I did have a docking-computers...

Re: [RELEASE] Assassins Guild extra mission. Victim 11

Thanks for those responses. I'll try to delete the entries (see below please!) and have another go with those thoughts in mind. In the meantime, something odd from a log file: 15:38:15.805 [Victim11]: blackmaria killed by [Station "Coriolis Station" "Coriolis Station" position: (...

Re: Aquatics OXP

I know I've said said something about this elsewhere but thought it might be worth posting here rather than [wherever it was] to ensure it's in the right place. For the record sort of thing while I'm posting a few other oddities. I get this one a lot; if so usually many entries. 15:30:17.654 [shipDa...

Re: Are there any Black Holes OXPs?

Nice descriptions of what a wormhole might do, Parazaine! However I think the concept doesn't quite work if it gets you to somewhere normal. If you have a bottom of iron then you're probably not going to go through a very dangerous wormhole to save 5k without a very good reason - not that one can't ...

Re: Black Baron broken? (solved)

I understand your situation! The OXP works fine with 1.76.1. The one thing I should have mentioned, though, is that I don't know if red X marks are supposed to appear on f6f6. As I write this I don't have a box account and don't think I can edit the Wiki - can look into that to send an update somewh...

This okay with 1.76.1 just one minor problem

I just went through this with O 1.76.1. The %J93 problem is still there with the 1.74.2 version on the Wiki page. It's in \Config\mission.plist at line 24 but altering "%J93" to "%J093" does indeed get the correct text in the mission screen. That said, there's nothing else to not...

Re: [RELEASE:] Interstellar Tweak OXP

Hi again. I'm actually trying to see if there are any errors being generated by another OXP so am looking at the log frequently. I saw a similar thing to the previous message but again I can't say it's anything to do with anything I was doing. I think it occurred on arrival in a system. 08:56:08.744...

On the amstrad version, you got something along these lines if you loaded a saved game named Elite.
That sounds familiar. Rich.

Re: Are there any Black Holes OXPs?

Your Speccy Elite was different from mine ... and that 'feature' has never been documented for the Speccy version. Could it have been the drugs? I assumed everyone would know! It was easily repeated, that feature, and I had friends who got it - someone told me about it, I didn't find out for myself...
