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.

What's up.

Thought I'd better sign up since this seems to be the place for big exhaustive lists of good space games. <img src=' http://spacesimcentral.com/forum/public/style_emoticons//icon_e_biggrin.gi f' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />

I'm an Orbiter veteran, also played a lot of Black Prophecy during the closed beta, played a bit of Takiodom too, long before the G1 acquisition (back when everything was still localized to Brazil lol).

Right now I'm playing Oolite pretty hardcore, I never played the original Elite (hey, I bet I'm a lot younger than YOU) but I was always aware of it's legendary acclaim but if I'm honest, while I can tolerate primitive graphics, wireframe is just a bit too dated for my generation X brain.

But I love rag-tag vagabond space trading and fighting.

So Oolite is like the perfect game.

Only been playing a few weeks too, but I think I'm in for the long haul, I want that Elite Status.

Anyway yeah, that's me, good to be here, peace and love and all that jazz. <img src=' http://spacesimcentral.com/forum/public/style_emoticons//icon_e_smile.gi f' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />

Welcome to the forums Superbatprime.

I still like to play Elite on the Amstard emulator every now and again, just for the memories. <img src="' http://spacesimcentral.com/forum/public/style_emoticons//biggrin.gi f"' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':biggrin:' />

You should try Oolite in wireframe mode - it's rather strange, but fun!
