Re: MandoTech Industries, Inc.
Did you keep the names of the images the same? Also, did you clear your browser cache?
Edited to add:- I'm seeing the cropped versions so my guess is you need to clear the browser cache. The page looks right to me.

Re: MandoTech Industries, Inc.
Erm, yes, that did make a difference. Thanks again, Smivs. I need some advice. How much do I put on this Wiki page of mine? All of my ships? Abbreviations? Other pages? I'm a bit unsure of the direction I'm heading with this.Smivs wrote:Did you keep the names of the images the same? Also, did you clear your browser cache?

Re: MandoTech Industries, Inc.
You might be better to do separate pages for each OXP - That's what myself and most others do I believe, and keep you 'user' page for any personal 'backstory' you have, and as an index page for your OXP pages.

Re: MandoTech Industries, Inc.
What you could do is a thumbnail table for the main OXP page, which links to individual pages for the ships themselves. It's a bit of work, but not too complex. If you want an example have a look at the wiki page for Aquatics OXP.
I'd agree with Smivs in keeping your user page for stuff about you (if you want) and an overall simple list of links to your OXPs and their wiki pages. But it's your page to have some fun with.

Re: MandoTech Industries, Inc.
That's great. That's exactly what I wanted to know. I did the same thing with a website I had through Yahoo a few years ago, and I broke things down into several pages, with links to them in the form of thumbnails on the main page. Thanks guys.

Note that the suggestion was not to subdivide your user page, but to create proper Wiki pages.mandoman wrote:That's great. That's exactly what I wanted to know.

Re: MandoTech Industries, Inc.
Well, I'm doing the best I can. If I screw up, I'm sure I can count on you to let me know. Dang, and I wasn't going to answer people in this thread anymore.

*strolls in whistling nonchalantly*
Ah, just the man I was looking for.
Another mysterious question If MandoTech Industries had a tagline, what would it be?
For example, Weyland-Yutani Corp's is "Building Better Worlds" (not that I'm suggesting Mandotech is anything like WYC lol).

So then I says to him, I says "naw dude, Oolite ain't no Space Opera... Oolite is Space Rock and Roll!"

Re: MandoTech Industries, Inc.
There seem to be some pages missing here, but maybe it's just my imagination. Anyway, here are some pics of a few ships that are nearing completion.
The MT1035Corsair is the faster, skinnier brother to the two battle cruisers I've made. It's long, and sleek, and looks fragile........but appearances can be deceiving. Those mounts amid ship are mini-turrets set on high energy. The ship literally overpowers whatever it is zeroed in on with plasma. I couldn't move fast enough to get screenies of it doing just that, so these will have to do for now.
These next two are of a set. The Thunderbird is huge, and sports multiple ball turrets. The Lightningbird is small, almost tiny when compared to the Thunderbird. You guessed it, the Lightningbird is the escort ship to the Thunderbird.
Thunderbird
Lightningbird

Re: MandoTech Industries, Inc.
got any flying trucks?
Re: MandoTech Industries, Inc.
I built one for a guy a couple of years ago, but if I'm not mistaken, the thing got so huge (not In design size) that it was totally impracticable for the game. I haven't built anything new, now, since somewhere around May, 2013, though I do have several that are nearly finished/half finished/just started, in Blender. It's been a busy Summer, for various reasons, so I haven't even got to play the game much, not to mention build new ships.jadenrayn wrote:got any flying trucks?
I'll keep the truck idea in mind, though. Maybe I can even make a playable version.

Re: MandoTech Industries, Inc.
In the meantime.. (I'd love to see a Mandoman Truck, btw!) if you're desperate, there is Paradox's Heavy Metal Freight Hauler..mandoman wrote:I built one for a guy a couple of years ago, but if I'm not mistaken, the thing got so huge (not In design size) that it was totally impracticable for the game.

Most games have some sort of paddling-pool-and-water-wings beginning to ease you in: Oolite takes the rather more Darwinian approach of heaving you straight into the ocean, often with a brick or two in your pockets for luck. ~ Disembodied
