To all SSC Station occupants
Thank you for the donations over the past year (2024), it is much appreciated. I am still trying to figure out how to migrate the forums to another community software (probably phpbb) but in the meantime I have updated the forum software to the latest version. SSC has been around a while so their is some very long time members here still using the site, thanks for making SSC home and sorry I haven't been as vocal as I should be in the forums I will try to improve my posting frequency.
Thank you again to all of the members that do take the time to donate a little, it helps keep this station functioning on the outer reaches of space.

Hey folks,
I downloaded FFE3DAJ and I got it to work 🙂
Gawd I missed this game. Such a good game. So many memories.
Speaking of memories...
I can't remember how to select a target for my auto-pilot, WITHOUT using the Nav computer.
With nav computer it;s easy, press N then select a base.
But without?
I thought it was possible to go to the system map, then zoom in all the way to the base I want to land on.
Then I vaguely remember I have to press..... T? C? .... V?
I can't remember 🙁
Can anyone help me?
Weird...
I seem to be unable to press T when in system map.
This is the map we're talking about, right?
Oh dooohhhhhh......
Wrong map 🙂
Fixed it, thnx very much !
Gonna enjoy hours and hours of this game.
I have a new question.
Is there a way to use the old ship models?
WHen I click on a ship int he 'buy new ships' screen, I think I see the 'old' original model for s a split second before the new model gets loaded.
I kind of like the old models better, since they bring back memories.
Is there a way to remove the new models and to play withthe old model ships?

Perhaps it takes some time to load those 'new' models.
If I recall some ships still retain their 'old' models as well.
IIRC You can just replace the new models with the old models in the correct folder but you will need to find them first, not sure if their is a download for them, best place to look would be the Russian Elite games forum. http://www.elite-games.ru/
This is truly truly awesome 🙂
Thnx again for this!
At my work, I have a colleague, 22 years old.
He never even heard about Elite.
I put the game on an USB stick and showed it to him with a small tutorial.
Gave him the stick last friday, and today he told me he had been playing the game all weekend long 😀
Such a great game, such a good conversion.
Seriously: kudo's to you AndyJ and all who are involved in making this possible 🙂
