About the new feature... is it a new, improved galactic jump effect? Or maybe even a realistic docking tunnell?

Nope .-) It is related to jumps though... We are only playing again with some of the features you guys have implemented. Oolite is still full of unexplored possibilities...

Svengali, I just saw cornys video with your hyperspace jump effect and it's very nice. Good job!

Wish there was a shaderless version to use on my netbook though...

Of course I will! Actually, I test possible new candidates for screen recording software specifically with that effect so that it will be as lag-free as possible

Cool

But better wait for the next BGS version... then you can show another new feature too... .-)

Waiting even longer? I took long enough already
Of course I'll be happy to record your next stroke of genius for my series.

He .-)

The current status is ~40%, because collecting the necessary data is a pretty timeintensive thing and we're working hard to get it done - at least if we're not piloting drunken (and have to pick up litter in the main hangar deck then).

Hey Svengali, Was the new Q-Bomb sound usable?
BTW seen the new oxp you're working on. Very good!

The sound you've sent to me is pretty nice. Smooth with only a very light modulation .-)

Can you implement the sound in the next version?

Many thanks for this (and the other updates), Svengali.

Many thanks form me too for this great OXP, Svengali

Thanks El Viejo and Captain Beatnik.

It's a team thingummie - without Pagroove nothing would have happened. And now Phantor Gorth has joined for a addition to BGS. Maybe we can finish this baby before christmas, but we'll see.

Great work Svengali.

errrr....
Have I done (or not done) something stupid?
I just pulled out BGS A1.3.5, and put the new A1.4oxp in, but there's no sounds.
:/

BTW
I've just loaded Oolite 1.76 and the new Cabal common library.

I get some sounds (e.g. hyperspeed mass lock) but no chatter on leaving a station, no countdown on jumping, etc.
