Anyone have any info on the 5 OXP's mentioned on that page?

I can't find anything on them, which makes it hard to update their pages.

I saw recently that someone was working on getting Orb to finally work - Kaks if I remember correctly.

Isn't the Balrog from Assassins Guild? As far as I can see, that page was added as 'flavour' and a bit of background for the Assassins OXP but then no link was created to that page.

The 'Cat Station' oxp is probably linked to the 'Cat-Alliance' oxp, which never existed... see here.

And the Cat Station is from the Cat Alliance OXP, which you can no longer download as the link is dead - see this for further info.

Thanks you, i'll get right on updating that page.

Also, added [Pallas] to the missing OXP's

And tagged all cat-alliance related stuff for deletion. 2 years and no work on it, and no download link.

Condor is another Charlie OXP, looking at old threads on the board here, Kaks and Lestradae were attempting to correct the 'eccentricities' in the programming. :wink:

Actually, all of the rest, Merlin, Orb and Pallas, are Charlie creations - hopefully someone out there will have working versions..

I have an improved version of the Condors.oxp. But I don't want to host it myself. Diziet Sma has a copy, waiting to add at OXP-Central when it goes on-line.

I can host it as a straight download at Dizzy's site for now, if anyone wants it..

Yes, I've got an almost-working copy of Orbs. I'll get it ship-shape as soon as poss.

About the Merlin, since it's also used as a Falcon escort(Charlie's Falcon, that is), both NPC and player versions of the Merlin are included within the Falcon oxp...
IIRC, both falcon & merlin are 1.71 compatible, which means some minor work is still needed to bring them properly up to date.
