Concerning OSE, I'll leave the DCN quite as Cmdr Wyvern would have it.
Not so much because I'd get a hungry trumble stuffed down my pants - you'd have to get
into my pants first, man
- but because I think the idea that this ship is half-biological is actually quite atmospheric, and no one has grown a bio-Cobby as of yet.
So it also makes sense that not every piece of kit would be repairable with this, only those that are biological part of the Caduceus itself. And also that it is Caduceus-specific and not buy-and-bolt-able as such.
If someone created an alternate item like that I'd include it, but at a hell of a price and TL plus another name and background story.
Cheers

Sorry L. It's gonna be awhile before you live that one down.

Oolite itself is a virus that installs itself in people's heads

Hi!
Re-downloaded from your signature, but the texture is still named "turrettex.png".

Done, and you're proven right. I get cadturret.png (and zeroturret.png).

Then either me or my computer have to be stupid.
I downloaded it again. "turrettex.png".
Flushed my cache.
Downloaded again. "turrettex.png".
Now really puzzled.
EDIT: The file I'm downloading is
http://www.crimsonforge.co.uk/cloister/neocaduceus.zip directly from your signature. I really don't know what I am doing wrong here, or what is going wrong...

Redownloaded and had a look: cadturret.png and there's no turrettex.png
Since you already flushed the cache, I really do not have any idea except that one: You did download it without deleting the prior zip and thus got something like neocaduceus(2).zip but unpacked neocaduceus.zip instead.

Weird.
I also downloaded the neocaduceus oxp directly from ClymAngus' sig and this is what I was getting:
cadturret.png:
zeroturret.png:
No turrettex.png over here, either

The exact file I've been downloading. Maybe you've got some additional cache mechanism at work?

I'm starting to guess that something crappy is going on with my Safari. I have another issue with the faulty display of GIFs, which had solved itself a couple of weeks ago, but has returned now. In both cases I have no idea about the cause.

To the rescue
Download the complete models & textures folder for the neocaduceus from here:
http://www.box.net/shared/static/3lajad96vk.zip
Remove the old folders, put these in, fin.
Even if there is some cache issue, you never before downloaded
that file - so it should work.
Cheers

Thanks for the rescue.
(Although the file "caduceus_turret.dat" would have been enough. I could have renamed the texture file myself.
)
- but because I think the idea that this ship is half-biological is actually quite atmospheric, and no one has grown a bio-Cobby as of yet.
