Re: Slow, lumpy graphics

Ok, thanks guys. All sounds too much for me. I'm away at work next week, then down to the computer shop to get it sorted. While I'm there, does anyone any other recommendations for me? While I'm here, Is there a big difference between the 32 bit and 64 bit version. I presume the 64 bit is smoother, ...

Re: Slow, lumpy graphics

Hmmm,
Thanks for the quick replies. Reval, it sounds like a trip to the computer shop for me. I have a real love/hate relationship with computers. I'm better with machines that have moving parts.
Another_Commander, Whats a Latest.log, and how do I do it?

Thanks.

Slow, lumpy graphics

Hi everybody, Got myself reacquainted with Oolite about four years ago. Was thoroughly enjoying it until one day the graphics went very slow and 'lumpy'. Mainly during combat with groups of pirates, but also when exiting space stations, but only when facing the planet. Once the planets out of view i...

Re: RRS Career Prospects?

Ok, cheers Norby.
Has anyone made it past tier 6?
Are there any more company perks to be had?
Don't worry about spoilers.

RRS Career Prospects?

I've been enjoying the RRS missions and have graduated to a Tier 6 Contractor. I like the perks such as complimentary refueling and RRS Service (Which I keep trying, but am always told nothing needs fixing.) and the equipment package (but I've got everything) My question is, how many tiers are there...

Re: Selling Equipment

Bingo! Done it! Feels quite satisfying. It was the bit about the path in the text bar that did it. Thanks to Another_Commander and all you other helpful space pilots. Brace yourself for more questions later, I'm sure I'll come up with some. (It's just computers and stuff I struggle with, I'm general...

Re: Selling Equipment

Hi, Starting to feel like a pain in the arse now with loads of dumb questions, probably due to not knowing the computer terminology. When I open the folder called 'Oolite' it shows nine other folders. None is called AddOns, but the top one is titled Expansion Packs. When I opened that it was empty. ...

Re: Selling Equipment

Hi, Right, ok, good, thanks. My version of Oolite is the one with the 'Manage Expansion Packs' option in the main menu. This is great for me as I have very little understanding of computers. However, I did manage to open the Oolite file and find a folder called Expansion Packs. Can I just 'cut and p...

Selling Equipment

Hi, how about this? Not being a computer boffin, I don't know how feasible this would be, but how about making all equipment sellable? Not necessarily for what you paid, just to get rid of it. Sometimes you buy something and it turns out to be either not as good as you thought or you just don't seem...

Re: Introduce Yourself.

Hello Fellow Space Pilots, I started playing Elite in the '80s, then re-discovered it a few years ago. I fly a tooled up Mk3 Cobra doing a mixture of stuff, mostly legal. Rated Deadly with 3000+ kills to date and about 280,000 in the bank. I like to play it using my projector on the wall, with the s...
