Oolite Bulletins

Given that the only way to access the Expansion Manager is via the startup screen menu, you should be able to gray-out the "Manage Expansion Packs" option so that it cannot be selected. You could start by finding where in the code the text "Manage Expansion Packs" appears. That s...

The neon sign was problematic for me. It was inside a black rectangle and was not animating right. I had to adjust the shipdata-overrides.plsit definition a bit and applied the neon effect inside the shader handling the sign's color inside the original Random Hits oxp. Here are the changes I had to ...

I can't describe how awesome phkb's revamped space bar looks in HDR. Instead, here are some standard pics, hopefully they still capture the beauty of this thing. https://i.postimg.cc/1zY1VwgM/oolite-121.png https://i.postimg.cc/J4dNghBv/oolite-122.png https://i.postimg.cc/pXZWX9Bc/oolite-128.png htt...

The new owners of Oolite.org were accused of spreading viruses, I understand.

That's urban legend. .

It's just a dead url at this time.

I reproduced it on Windows with 1.91 and 1.90, although I am sure that this has been there for many, many past versions.

Screenshots seem to ignore the gamma game setting and are always saved as if gamma were set to 1.0.

Sometimes how an image looks depends also on the viewer app used to present it. Just to cover this case, try viewing your screenshot at two or three different viewers. Is there any obvious difference then?

Inverted faces maybe? You seem to be seeing the model partially inside out.

phkb's stuff all falls under General Enhancements IMO and should be bulleted inside that section together with the renderer, HDR and accessibility stuff. I don't think that each should be a separate category. got better? Perfect! screenshots needed ) I'll upload a couple a bit later today. We don't...

This is a quick mock-up of what I mean:


Some screenshots of the keyboard setup screens can be added too to break up the text wall a bit.

reworked the code of all HTML pages of the "whatsnew" section, brought it to a unified style using CSS, fixed some problems with HTML tags. Added information from @phkb to the page for 1.91. It would be great to add some items to the "Expansion Pack Development - Scripting" sect...

@another_commander,
plz, let me add this? )

Looks great. Hit it!

Yes, I'll write a short note in the download box. Give me a few minutes.

32-bit Windows downloads added to the website Download page.

@phkb I was wondering if you could maybe post a short blurb for each of the main features you've added in 1.91 (e.g. keyboard handling etc.) when you get a chance. I'd like to add them in the What's New page on the website

True, but probably no good advertising it any further. I think it creates confusion if we have it up on the website when we no longer offer support for 32 bit systems. It can still stay on github for those willing to look for it, but I think it's best to concentrate on the 64 bit versions. I've upda...
