Quite close, you're on the right track though!

Anyway I have another book cover question for you. This time however, to defeat TinEye.com , I have desaturated the image with The GIMP, decolourised to black and white. It's a detail from a cover of a book by a famous US author. Title and author please? http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4031/45681233...

Forgive my ignorance, but what is Star Wars Day? Release date of the first film?

Urm, look at the current date... "may the force"...

Well, yeah. So do we have twelve Star Wars Days every year?

Did we loose all months but May and cloned it 11 times?

I just tried to do the same change (on Mac, using the property list editor) but upon start Oolite told me that it cannot find the griff_normalmapped_... ship. I'm sure there is no typo as I copied the ship name from the shipyard plist in the OXP bundle. During gameplay I do see the normalmapped shi...

As far as I can tell, Oolite only instructs iTunes to play the specific playlists when you set Music in the config screen to iTunes, so it doesn't even know whether a song is mp3 or aac or whatever else iTunes knows.

Hi, what music do you have in your Oolite-Docking, Oolite-Docked, and Oolist-Inflight playlists? I'm currently listening to Peer Gynt Suite No. 1, Op. 46: I. Morning Mood for the docking sequence. It maintains the mood of Blue Danube but I like it even better. While docked I listen to Stompin' At Th...

is it true that no joysticks are supported in MacOS? Neither analog nor digital? (if yes, how could that happen? if no, is there a list of products that reportedly do work?) Hi benije, I just posted a patch that is still rough around the edges but does provide limited support for gamepads. Please l...

Hi guys,

it's still early stages but I'd appreciate feedback on my gamepad support patch which should work with a joystick as well.

Hi Harry,

I posted some patches to enable gamepad support, if you compile Oolite yourself check it out and let me know how it works for you.

A Joystick handler that has hardcoded values for using an Xbox 360 gamepad with Oolite. Note that other gamepads should work fine as well and won't require the Xbox360 driver, maybe the button mappings will be messed up as I only tested with the Xbox360 gamepad.
