Re: Tales from the spacelanes...

Holy Hyperspace! My respect for this seemingly unpretentious OXP has risen ten fold. Guess I should have fired up the injectors and fled from Svengali. :) About half way in to Inera I spot this huge object. Closer inspection revealed this: http://chincasi.com/archive/ohmy.png For awhile, thought I w...

Re: Captain Solo

I have a few ideas brewing. Perhaps a series and then again maybe not.

Re: Tales from the spacelanes...

Hyperspaced from Inera to Esredice. Right away attacked by a Ferdy but attention diverted by message from Svengali commanding a Cobra MkIII. Had to deal with the Ferdy and it was quite a dog fight but I came out of it breathing. What's This?! Svengali starts blasting away on my aft shields. First ti...

Captain Solo - Introduction

Come on Liza, I need those coordinates NOW! "Hang on", she said. "You do not want to go warping through an asteroid belt do you?" I resumed strumming my fingers impatiently on the ships control panel. I was overdue with a shipment of vanedium ore for the colonists on N-Scape. You...

Re: What's your combat rating?

Above Average. Been station bound for a couple days. I've tested a fair number of OXP's and removed all except deepspaceship.oxp and the humourous (and harmless) personalities.oxp. Would be nice to have a few more characters in there. As for HUD's, my old eyes prefer the standard one. I tried making...

Re: What's your combat rating?

Hi and welcome CaptSolo. Deep Space Pirates OXP adds pirates and asteroids outside the normal space lanes so best to not put that in your Add ons just yet :wink: The only Add Ons I tested so far were replacement HUD's but there was some one thing about each of them I did not like. I prefer the larg...

Re: What's your combat rating?

Average(40). Ferrying goods between Ensoreus, Isinor, and Qutiri. No longer avoiding space lanes on later two systems. Very profitable with numerous opportunities for advancement in rank. Last trip to Qutiri met three groups of rouges that were dispatched fairly easily. Back to Isinor, aided the Gal...

Re: What's your combat rating?

Harmless(0). Just started playing and currently trading to outfit my ship. Staying out of spacelanes to avoid traffic. Do not think this technique would work on the C64 version of elite that I played to death nearly 30 years ago.
