Um... So the old Oosat2 is gone now? With all the stuff that was uploaded there? :o

no. oldsat (http://oldsat.alioth.net/) is still useful, but every time you hit a link, be prepared to substitute oosat for oldsat.

Hmm... But I take it that the database cannot be transferred and we need to upload everything again to the new Oosat?

Looks like we're still missing a whole lot of what made Oolite such a great game. I re-uploaded my stuff, and dropped in a couple of new OXPs, but off the top of my head we're still missing Deposed, Long Way Round, Black Baron, and Thargoid Wars. Are the original authors still around for these OXPs, or should someone re-upload them on behalf of the authors?

I'll upload Black Baron rightaway.


EDIT: I'm unable to retreive the OXP from 'oldsat' so as far as I'm concerned, it's gone, I don't keep a backup of it.

I have all the OXPs installed on my machine.

If authors wanna PM me their e-mails, I can send them over.

(Or if your OXP is on Oosat1 - link from Oosat 2, you could download and then re-upload to Oosat2).

I could resubmit them myself, by coping the text from the readme to the content of the story, but then it would look like I'd written them all! :shock:
OXPS : The Assassins Guild, Asteroid Storm, The Bank of the Black Monks, Random Hits, The Galactic Almanac, Renegade Pirates can be downloaded from the Elite Wiki here.

Huh?

I tried submitting the oxp, but there is no link or anything to add stuff, you only have 'add content' and that's for stories, not for uploading oxp's...

OXPs are now stories, for the purposes of Oosat. Had me confused too.

Thanks.

(But that *is* pretty counter-intuitive, I say....)
