Oolite Bulletins

Got bored in my Mining Transporter and took my chances when I saw a blue sphere luring me in. What an alienesque sight greeted me when I came out of the witch space tunnel. This is Orerve with ZygoUgo's Cinematics, three moons from Additional Planets and sun from Distant Suns. http://i1358.photobuc...

Please keep going dertien, these are really good

Great to see someone have a go at so many of the old ships whilst putting their own stamp on the models as well as the textures.

BTW, I think that Tiger's already looking pretty good!

MALWARE WARNING ... Hello spacefarers :) I'm back :D / :roll: / :| (delete according to taste) ... but only for a brief visit ( :D / :roll: / :| ) For texturing main planets, I strongly recommend [wiki]PovrayPlanets OXP[/wiki]. Seconded. And it took submersible a long time and a lot of work to make...

Truth be told, I haven't imbibed in any kind of spirits in quite some time. My health is better for it and I have gained a new appreciation for life, which has been granted an indefinite extension.

WHAAAT !!!???... They now have lights ???

What new awesomeness is this?

Thanks Griff. Love the variety you've given them

Hello Duggan and thanks for your feedback, much appreciated :) Looking forward to seeing future innovative and imaginative texture oxp releases as and when they become available. :) I'll do my best :P... I may even have to learn how to do this properly once I run out of Demux ones to revamp :lol:

Finally updated :| ... Please see the first post for a list of the improvements, largely thanks to spara :D who'll now be looking after the base unit of the oxp whilst I take care of the texture packs. You'll also find the link to the new (and much improved) version: 0.6 If you want to give it a try...

Thanks Pleb, Sir Arian and Duggan for your reports. And yes, I've been very fortunate to be working with spara who has done some great work in getting this oxp to function in a way that we're both happy with. spara is a much better coder than I am at this moment and has also been able to implement i...

Ooh - that's looking very nice.

I'd just like to add an extra "very" to that sentence

Nice one submersible

I agree that it looks great, bit on the slow side though or have you... (gasp! ) tinkered with it?

Didn´t dare that after the X Rebirth desaster.....fortunately I kept myself from preordering that game.....generally, I am really disappinted by the games released during the last few years :cry: -except Skyrim which is still on my HD :mrgreen:. I've only recently found out about the X series (I kn...

Welcome back willo (although I think I missed you the first time around...) ...a thargoid virus crippled my mainframe; leaving me stranded in space and forcing a system re-boot ha ha, I lost all my game saves. The little &#%%+>$!... They do make some rather nice oxps though :wink: I was wonderin...

Using it now - and ..... ooooo, very pretty !!! Glad you like it :D That was always the hope when I released it - that someone else could have fun with it too. I just noticed that since 0.5.6., my "Additional Planets" seem to be gone. Hadn't visited one yet, but with 0.5.5. they showed up...

I'd missed this

Thanks Rorschachhamster!
