Oolite Bulletins

Hi to all, its been a year or more since i last spent sleepness nights programming n ship building here, so hi to all the names i remember, and its really good to see so many names new to me :) My son plays oolite (at least i introduced him to something positve lol) and apart from wanting me to upda...

Havent been about for quite a while due to life. was clearing stuff from one pc to another and remembered this model. I havent had time to look through the forums to see if its been incorporated but thought i'd throw a few shots up to see if it gave food for thought or yawns lol! I altered the desig...

I have not been around for ages, ages ago, i did a customsounds oxp to enhance the game. There is so much scope with the source code to really go to town and make a very good customsounds addition. This would entail a lot of fiddling with the source code, which would then need to be added to a new b...

Hello to all, ive not been around much over the last few months on here. Broken spine and hospitals have got in the way...How is it that you can can eat a big mac for 10 minutes, while updating Oolite, but be bedded down in a hospital for two months and no one understands the withdrawl symptoms of O...

Been away for 3 weeks, and thought id catch up on stuff, only to be bombarded with posts from sick wierdos! I know they say the internet is an enlightening thing, but how does someone come up with the idea "I know, I'll fill a decent website, visited by decent people with lots of sick S**T!&quo...

I'm just putting the finishing touches to my mission, Spylarn, which unfortunately measures in at 7MB. It is very model, and image intensive, so i cant avoid that. The reason for the post is that during creating images etc, i looked on the wibbly wobbly web for inspiration for images of Elite-esque ...

Yeah, i'm aware of the issues with the length of some of the files :oops: The OXP was really designed as an example of the possibilities of further effects. As such to get a feel for backing music in space i had to use long sound files, gauging the silences etc. The whole thing was really a kind of ...

Ah, could this be the reason behind my characters.plist help request in the expansions, I'll SVN up and see if this makes a difference

Hi Draco, you can always go to the Descriptions.plist and at the bottom of the list you will find the coords for the planet. You can alter its position anywhere you want it, just for info

Does anyone have a planet list for the first couple of galaxies with corresponding numbers, or a way how to obtain them? Being a humble windows user, i cannot dump the planet list, and would like to use such a list for mission oxp.

If there is anything that i can do to assist, time is what i have, brains in programming is lacking ( when god said brains i thought he said trains, and caught the last one :wink: ) If there is anything you can guide me to read or send me to work through i would be more than willing. Even at this ti...

Running the risk of being shot down (no pun intended), has anyone considered creating an Oolite Mission editor? I was thinking of like a wizard type thing you get on programs, so set your mission, then input it into the editor in stages, which would create your basic mission script.plist and mission...

Hi Davemak, what version of Oolite are you running? I'm a fellow PC user for my sins, and i run in fullscreen and get my butt kicked by thargoids :) . You should bw able to select full screen by the F2 menu and highlighting fullscreen. Either that or go to the Oolite install folder C:\Program Files\...

Probably a strange request :oops: I am attempting to upload a file to Oosat2, very simple, however the file is 44MBs , and, although my internet connection is very fast etc, it baulks, and after 5 minutes the screen crashes with cannot find server etc. I would rather put it up before i say what it i...

Thats brilliant news Dajt, it is a testiment to your determination as well. There have been a number of milestones with the PC version, which have been passed by you, Nic and Giles. It really is quite something to think that from an idea by one individual, assisted by a few people, so many people ar...
