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.

Hi,
Just wanted to give a headsup on one of my fav spacesims of old times. Tachyon the Fringe is available on steam, and there are still apparently people playing online on Novalogic servers now and then.
I havent fired this oldie up in a while but i did like the game a lot, easygoing, nice action, OK story, not too difficult to get into.
Linear, yes, but sometimes this is a good thing.
Just for kicks, here is my collection of complete originals with boxes, manuals and CDs that are still intact:
FreeSpace 2
Tachyon the Fringe
Wing Commander Prophecy 4-CD set
X-Wing Alliance
X-Wing vs Tie fighter
StarLancer
Darklight Conflict

What? You counted them all Pinback? <img src="' http://spacesimcentral.com/forum/public/style_emoticons//icon_eek.gi f"' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':shock:' /> .....I must get round to it sometime, but to be honest I couldn't hazard a guess how many I have, "quite a few" is the best I could do. <img src="' http://spacesimcentral.com/forum/public/style_emoticons//icon_e_confused.gi f"' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':?' /> <img src="' http://spacesimcentral.com/forum/public/style_emoticons//icon_redface.gi f"' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':oops:' />
Anyways, yes its good that Tacyhon is on steam, this little gem is often overlooked and deserves a download if you don't have it already.
I have had a few in the past and I lost a bunch a while back without knowing when a box of old software I sold for like $75 and then I found out it had my entire WC collection of games in there :shock:. And I have lost a few over the years because of hard drive failures. Its a shame 3.5 media doesn't last forever these days because those games are dying fast because those deteriorate fairly quickly.
Dang-it Pinback!!
You elicited a counting tick and had to go a-counting. I count 60 space trading games in my collection, not including the older Elite clones. Shareware, freeware, and commercial in mine.
Gonna have to write that list of titles down one of these days.
Had a bit of a recount,make it 73 as I counted some that dont have any trading in.but if I add the 6 Elites to the number I've got 79 all commercial realises.Think I will do a list.
