Re: Licensing OXPs

BGS works fine. As done XenonUI. Both of which utilise setScreenBackground to display images. Not sure what the difference is internally in the core code (and I don't know if I'd be able to tell the difference in any case), but it's certainly more evidence that there must be something different the...

Re: Licensing OXPs

Are there any other relevant OXPs which I should try on my Mac (to see if they work where the others don't? - and hopefully narrow down the problem). XenonUI (with and without Library), or BGS (which will need to have Library) - both these packs are heavy on background images, most of which will be...

Re: OXPs - Strategic thinking!

Order of priorities. 1) GN override - hopefully an easy fix for the most serious issues. 2) Other stuff to be decided. I would like to propose that we also produce some new meta-OXPs. One for rank beginners to help teach the game. One for people with lousy combat skills One for people with top-notch...

Re: Licensing OXPs

Docking Fee's images worked on my Mac. But when I dissected Docking Fees I could find nothing obvious that put them on the screen of my Mac. So once again, I find myself in the coding quagmire, whose level is now over my head! Which docking fees are we talking about? Layne's Docking Fees Version 1....

Re: OXPs - Strategic thinking!

Next try: Firearms and alien items: Give us all you have, we need guns and all alien technology we could get our hands on. Doesn't matter if a research facility is included, we could ship them later. Food and textiles: We got a lot of mouth to feed and new uniforms or cloth for our families are alw...

Re: OXPs - Strategic thinking!

1) I would suppose that it depends on what they get up to in the station! Is it primarily a barracks with recreational facilities? Or a repair shed for the ships? A research facility? Or regimental headquarters where they entertain in great style? And if not all 4 of these, then where else do they ...

Re: OXPs - Strategic thinking!

So ... we could maybe have a Sothis-style override for GN fixing the markets? ... Is anything else broken? I just read it was broken and never took it any further, being incapable of doing anything about it! Fixing the market is pretty simple, we just need an overwrite. Either by using Spara's mark...

Re: [RELEASE] Telescope OXP v1.15

Two questions. 1) I can set Telescope's options to detect up to 200 items. What on earth is the point of this? I can't seem to get the MFD to show me anything other than the 10 nearest. There seems to be no scroll function. What am I missing? 2) What difference does the small dish make? Again, it s...

Re: Fer de Lance Lightspeeder

Thank you. Looks good - at least you know what you are doing and what you are writing about! I could find very little information in Hiran's gleanings and was girding my loins to pester you anyway! Where did you manage to find all the missing information? No price, no dimensions, no yaw rating etc ...

Re: Equipment 'Sell Item' Color

A small OXP for v1.85/86, which changes the color all the "Remove"-type equipment items on the F3 Ship Outfitting screen to red to make it clear that the particular item will remove something, rather than add something. http://wiki.alioth.net/img_auth.php/2/29/Remove_item_color.png Availa...

Re: Fer de Lance Lightspeeder

Thanks :) and oops :oops: Looks like I didn't finish editing the shipyard file (probably when I took a break from struggling with getting the texture to stick to the model). Good news is that they're both easy fixes :D Coming soon... There might be more, I didn't look into the OXP just stumbled ove...

Re: Fer de Lance Lightspeeder

...how the factory has gone to extra attention to de-burr all the parts leaving no sharp edges behind ... Rounded corners? How very Jobsian! If I'm stuck in a spaceship cockpit and am getting bashed about by the unspeakables, I'll go for rounded corners, Jobsian or not. I don't need any more bruise...
