I now have 7 kills, 4000cr. in the bank, a ship I can defend, and an ooniverse to explore. :mrgreen: Ah yes, that tends to happen :P ... I once took down a Black Monk Gu...

Re: Screenshots

They do indeed :)

Combat screenshots look so much better since the laser 'texture' (or whatever it is) was improved a while back.

Re: Extra Planet/Moon textures - now Additional Planets.oxp

Hi Astrobe. Hmmm... You've got a point there. I suppose the main pack is so tiny relative to even the smallest texture pack that I could even include it within each of the texture packs. Then one could simply download the packs that were of interest before merging them... but if you didn't merge the...

Re: [RELEASE] Risk-based Economy

Belated thanks cim and Phasted.

I've been torn between these two oxps (assuming they'd clash in some way) so combining them is great news for me :)

A different kind of Cloak

Apologies if this has been considered before but... Imagine you spot an asteroid field in the distance and head over to investigate, or perhaps your interest is piqued by a derelict ship showing up on the scanner. Once you arrive it becomes apparent that you are not alone. Suddenly visible, as if fr...

Re: Extra Planet/Moon textures - now Additional Planets.oxp
