Well done walterar, on this day in particular you have won the thread 😀

Yes nice pictures Marcel, nozmajner & Walterar! A question though Walterar, what is that blue line behind the Eagle's thrusters?

@Geraldine

Micrometeorites perhaps?  :unsure:

In Pioneer, Pluto is grey and Charon is brown. I bet that will change soon.

Continuing my journey, I did my business at Bennet's World and took off to explore the big green rings. They seem to be floating on the water, and green vegitation roughly traces their path across the land.

The thing looks like a giant superhighway.

I thought there must be some interesting topography here, but the place looks as flat as FE2.

I considered landing on it, but I've gone into the wrong pond before. I had to blow out all my vents afterward. It was rather messy.

Stay tuned for more pictures. Same Ladybird time, same Ladybird channel.

I'm saying goodbye to Bennet's World. Rear view, moving away to see the big picture.

In these pictures I'm still heading back to Earth so I can start a new game in Scout Plus 23. I stopped at Wong's Misery. It does look miserable. There are no clouds in Pioneer yet, but it looks like it.

Speaking of clouds, I'm coming in to scoop a gas giant here. It's my last refueling stop before Sol. Again it looks like there are clouds down there.

Very nice marble that Wong's Misery 🙂

Thank fluffyfreak for that. I just took the picture.

After all my travels, I realized that the place I was looking for was there all along.

There's no place like home...

Marcel's Mysterious World, nozmajner & Walterar's pictures are on deck! Many thanks once again guys! Without you the ModDB page would be a much less colourful place. And Nozmajner? Great build this month, I've been having lots of fun with it so my thanks to you and the dev team too, you guys are awesome! :queen:

Edit: For a laugh I thought I'd create a gif of the end sequence of the Eclipse Pioneer video.

(would be nice to update the pluto views with the last pictures from NASA)

My last explorations. Including some nice "earthlike" worlds.

@Geraldine

Thansk, but I won't put myself that forward, the others put a lot more work in Pioneer than me. Although I slowly chipping away on my stuff, like a bulk ship and other ships and stuff to mention some, but that doesn't warrant your limelight. 😀

You are finding some amazing looking worlds!

You are finding some amazing looking worlds!

the "earthlike" planet in system Aymi has some interesting features: It has 3 moons, and is orbiting in a triple star system. his surface almost never knows night. But there are often eclipses, in one of the screes I posted is clearly visible the shadow of one of the moons on the surface. The planet has not setllements, but there are in 2 of his 3 moons.

nozmajner, all of you who give of yourselves each and every day to work on this great game is and always will be a hero in my books. All the way from Tomm himself to past and present contributors and that includes all you screenshot folks too. All of you are helping in your own ways to create and bring this awesome game to the masses out there who are desperate for an expansive fully newtonian spacesim. Without your efforts they would have very little to look forward too, so well done, well done to each and everyone of you! :curtsey:

Arrakkh is certainly quite the explorer. I think he may have some of Columbus's or perhaps Marco Polo's blood in his veins! :girlcrazy: Wonderful images once again Arrakkh and thank you. They are on deck!  :queen:

Of course I have some blood from Marco Polo and Colombo, as I'm italian too 🙂 

Seriously, I explore because is the only thing in pioneer I'm able to do, I 'm totally unable at combat!

We're looking for a selection of screenshots to update the webpage scroller.

There are some restrictions on the contents and format of these, namely:

• Pioneer content ONLY; no fancy skyboxes, mods or non-standard ships please.
• 1440x900 resolution minimum, feel free to submit higher resolutions!
• Show off a specific ship, planet, station, feature or just something really damned pretty/amazing.
• Give permission when you post that we can redistribute the screenshot under the CC BY-SA 3.0 license

The scroller contains some seriously out-of-date screenshots. Until it was mentioned last night I hadn't realised just how old.

Help us out and your screenshots can be there until the next time we realise it needs updating 😉

Andy

Ooooh I have competition for screenshots! :girlcrazy:  Seriously though Andy I think it's a great idea. Pioneer's own site does need a little sprucing up. Feel free to use that animated gif I made of the end of the Eclipse video if you want too Andy. Its back a page in this thread.

And speaking of screenshots since Andy needs some for this month I wont use any for ModDB. I've got plenty I can use on there already. Must take some shots of Scout Plus though since I will give walterar a bump too with the monthly update.

We're looking for a selection of screenshots to update the webpage scroller.

These are my most recent ones... Not many. Do whatever you want with them.

They are really nice Tichy! :queen:

@Geraldine, no need to hold off on using any screenshots, the more the merrier!

You do a fantastic job on the ModDB stuff and it's probably one of the primary ways that people discover us so keep it up please 🙂

Thats very nice of you to say Andy but its you guys who deserve all the credit. I am just trying to help in my own little way. :curtsey:

@Geraldine: your little way is actually quite huge. 🙂

Wow, the first one is like "Everything with everything!", the last one makes me think of 2001 A Space Odyssey
