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.

Hello all,
I've been a fan of Space Games since the early days of the Micro computer and when Elite came out....well...the rest is history.
I specifically came here to try to lend a hand in the Pioneer project. It has an amazing team of talented individuals.
I have known about SSC for a while. Quite some time ago I was lamenting there were no games like Millenium 2.2 and 3.3 on the Amiga and here was where I found there was a remake on Millenium 2.2. Mercenary was another game I played quite a bit on the C64 just like Elite.
Greeting Styggron and welcome to SSC.
I also spent a lot of time playing Mercenary, great game.
Hi Styggron
Haven't I seen you someplace before? 😆 Welcome to the SSC 🙂 , oh, did you mention Mercenary? http://spacesimcentral.com/downloads/ft ... nary_Clone
Welcome aboard the station Styggron.
Pioneer is a great project and I like the fact everyone is taking their time to get things right and the community is pitching in coding and assets into the game. See ya in the forums Styggron.
Thank you all for the warm Welcome.
@Geraldine, oh yes I know about MDClone. I found it some years ago and have been LOVING IT ! 🙂
I tried other Space Trading Games such as X over the years trying to rekindle the excitement I had for Elite but none of them quite grabbed me like Elite I'm afraid so you can imagine my excitement when Oolite first came out...yes I actually knew about that one early one and I played and played it and STILL play it regularly to this day. All the OXP's are brilliant, the textures, add ons it is just ultra BRILLIANT ! and now we have Pioneer of course which I have been following for a few years. I played with very early versions of it when it was *just* playable although it crashed quite a bit etc, then the releases were more stable, I was watching videos by bchimself I believe the username was for the person that places regular youtube videos up ...bar video 1 which is still unavailable 🙁
So I will get regular nightlybuilds of Pioneer and check them out and hope to help out with Pioneer in some humble way.

When I got "back" into Elite per se I investigated Frontier GL and FFE D3D which are great but the latter there is nothing I can do to get the damn icons appearing on the screen which is a documented fault I know but the Russian team do not seem to be posting updates for it etc. I left a detailed thread on the Frontier forums about everything I tried to no avail to get it working. Ahhhh well......... the GL one will have to do for that,
