Re: Elite: Dangerous - first impressions

I really hope they get to implement some of the Kickstarter concept art in this game someday. Flying through gas giant clouds rendered at some imaginable scale or sitting parked at the elite2:frontier star port feeling the wind and rain rock the ship whilst looking up at the gas giant (merlin?) and ...

Re: Globe and Torus station updates

That looks like something is clashing between OXP's, or maybe the globe is referencing a generic dock and oolite is picking the one from the current shipset - maybe back when the globe station was created the default shipset dock object was a different object. There's isn't a dock model supplied wit...

Re: Playing Sid Meier's Civilization as Donald Trump

That rant against windmills in his meet the press segment up in Scotland this week got me fuming, saying how they spoilt the beautiful landscape and all the while he's been running down the National parks back in the US and opening them up to his mates to go in and start drilling and fracking. I can...

Re: griff SpecGloss ships

something a little bit different from the usual - another attempt at an ice asteroid! must be my 4th or 5th go at these - this time i used Modo's (a 3d app) built in procedural textures to displace and texture a sphere into a spiky boulder shape rather than try and model or sculpt it myself, worked ...
