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.

Yeah, false positives can be tricky, and I think that AVG is a bit prone to them... beyond my ken, I'm afraid.

My Norton's hates the trunk versions of Oolite, so I have to coerce it to accept and run them.

Thanks for the help Cody, looks like the right sort of thing. However, you might want to let them know that I tried the 30 day trial of pinnacle game profiler they linked to, and it threw up a security threat warning after installing. I'm on AVG 2012 free version(which may not be that good). May be a false alarm but cant be too cautious these days.

i've always heard avg was garbage. i use avast(free) and love it. they even have a boot scan which is great.

Anyone know how to put some deadzone on controller sticks? Am using a xbox 360 controller with "xbox360 wireless receiver for windows".

Another suggestion here, Overlord.

I am the Oolite Naval Attaché... that's why I'm here. No problem!

I suppose that gives you diplomatic immunity from all your atrocities in-game Cody.

You should advertise your diplomatic status in your signature Your Excellency.

Atrocities? Moi? I didn't do it! Nobody saw me do it! You can't prove anything!

Good to see you here, jefe!

Thank you. I lurk here every now and then. Keeping in touch with what is happening on the other side. Activity has increased since diplomatic relations were established.

Yeah... one wonders where His Excellency the Ambassador is though.

Probably off on some jolly aboard a liner above a famous planet!

You called me sir? 😉 The thing I most do nowadays is hunting for a RL job while running my own company at the same time so I have not so much time. But the job is to compensate for less income.

But yeah back to this forum: Geraldine mentioned in a discussion over at the Oolite boards that we could showcase the latest OXP developments here. Problem is 😀 there are coming OXP's out on almost a daly bases (I'm not complaining 😉 ). so keeping track and selecting and writing about it is difficult.

Salutations, your grace! Aye, RL can be a bastard at times, no doubt of that. As regards OXPs - as you say, too many being released to keep track of (especially ship models, some of which are basically mierda!), and I for one am very selective about which OXPs I use, let alone recommend. I mainly stick to eye-candy, being somewhat of a purist. In test-pilot mode however, I'll run outrageous stuff (such as the Colonial Viper - it has no place in my Ooniverse, but was great fun to test), but it gets removed from my game when I've signed-off on the job.

My advice is to pick ones that really grab people's attention. Go for ones that have that WOW factor.

Very true, and 'on the hook' is crucial - the game first, then the OXPs. You've already shown an interest in Xeptatl's Sword, Geraldine - that has a pretty good storyline, and needs an iron-assed ship piloted by an experienced commander who has already completed the native missions and is in G5. As does Coyote's Run (based on the Oofic Coyote) - highly recommended (but then I would say that - I wrote the screenplay).
