crosshairs again

Post by j f gearing »

Still having the same problem of nearly invisible crosshairs
It seems I have the latest video drivers and i have fiddled with the card setting to no effect
I have to place the mouse pointer dead centre in the crooss hairs on launch and rely on that.
Is the any way I can alter the coding to change the colour of the crosshair
Also the little arrow that points to a targetted ship has vanished completely
All very odd

Any suggestions??

Cheers

JG

PS what about a Mercenary OXP, what a combination!!
I'd do it myself if I had a brain.

Errmmm, haven't we already two of those? Namely Assassins and Random Hits?

Just asking...

Quite right too
Proper ships we had in them days
No softy new fangled ECM rubbish, if a missile came at you , you went into reverse and blasted the b******
If you crashed your ship you walked 50 miles and stole a new one

Now I got it! I've spent quite some time with that game...and at that time I really loved it. But what now? There's no more Commodore and Atari symbols to shoot. We cannot even use Windows and Apple as they run on the same hardware nowadays...funny. Few days ago I missed that game...morphic fields?

I guess it would really make sense to have such a thing in, however I don't know if it's possible, as we currently don't have much planetary action yet. I like the idea of the player crash-landing and having to earn enough in order to go back to space...
