Oolite Bulletins

I'm giving up for tonight, (possibly for good) I cant seem to get anything to work :oops: still get - SyntaxError: Non-ASCII character '\xfe' in file C:\Documents and Settings\User \Obj2DatTex.py on line 1, but no encoding declared; see http://www.python.org/pe ps/pep-0263.html for details I've got ...

for Firefox, I use chatzilla, can be had from firefox site, under add-ons

I'm not quallified to comment, but, you could look into selling "actual boxes and decent art and a printed cheat-sheet" and attatching the 'game' for free?

I'm guessing the legal repercussions of that would be dodgy at best.

hi thanks again for you help and patience.

1st. Python version 2.6.2
done as you say but found the problem (I think)

I only have 2 files, -
myModel_auv.png is missing, I'll go back into wings3d and redo the last parts again and re-export it.

what about the images he's used to illustrate the game?

are they intellectual property or something?

Just a thought, If you can't stop it for the right reasons, look for another angle?

I guess it's because Oolite uses an unsigned 32-bit integer for credits and divides by 10 for display purposes. Now if only I had a clue what he just said :roll: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: I'm with Fatleaf. but, seriously if you need more than 429,496,729.5 Credits at any time, what are you up to? :sh...

are you finding the ship 'roll' to sensitve?

Different ships react differently I've found out.
