Beautiful and wonderful! Great work!

<t>I've just installed Blender and imported the model into it. Impressive program seen the fact it's in the GNU. But, I don't have any experience in modeling and the interface is a bit alien to me.But if anyone ever feels (s)he would like an Enterprise refit, even a very simple one, I'd love to work ...

<r>I've read that Pioneer can handle Blender designs ... now I'm wondering, could this NCC-1701 Refit somehow work in Pioneer or does it exceed the possibilities of the engine?<YOUTUBE id="r3Vn9yJ2Olo"><s>[media]</s>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3Vn9yJ2Olo<e>[/media]</e></YOUTUBE> far my favourite ...

Looks great! Want it.

Great! I want it! I like ships that are hard to steer. I'd even like a beta, would you mind giving me the opportunity to d/l it?I fly Orbiter a lot so I'm more used to 20th/21st century stuff than 33rd century.

<t>The richer ye are, the more crooks ye get after ya. That should be easy to implement, right? Can also be done with Elite status/rank/political influence.Some con artist that sells ye grain with tribbles, a ship with a hyperdrive that's been tampered with ... it would've been the end for ya if ye ...

<t>If you want a plot for a gigantic intergalactic war, just drop in some deus ex machina like the Genesis device. It would even attract the Ori (playing for God, naughty humans!)To make Mars believable as a terraformed planet I think you'd need some external shield that deflects the solar wind and ...

This is why energy weapons are better for a space game, because you can completely make up their characteristics. If you want the shots to dissipate after certain maximum range, or have the damage decrease as range increases, or want different shield types to be effective ...

<r>In my opinion ...The most effective, intelligent and enjoyable concepts of combat were implemented with Star Trek Klingon Academy and Star Trek Bridgecommander. I've spent far more hours using these while I used Frontier and FFE for exploration. But that means: A: a lot of subsystems that you can ...

The pirates' motive is your cargo. They kill you, they scoop your cargo out of space. So your ship cost a lot of money; why should they care? They didn't pay for it.<br/>
If I were a pirate I would primarily be interested in the ships' subsystems and materials. A ship ...

There is one tank. It is internal. It does affect performance - and empty tank is lighter than a full one.External tanks should probably arrive at the same time in the future as external cargo pods. If ever.<br/>
External pods ... wonderful idea! I feel they should be ...

Thank you. Downloading now.

I know a way to defy the gravity of a black hole: find the Higgs-boson and learn how to manipulate the Higgs field in such a manner that all particles lose mass. Bonus: Instant acceleration & deceleration from 0 to lightspeed and back without any G forces.

Thanks Marcel! I will enjoy this.

<t>Other big events: two planets fusing together (they totally liquify in the process and behave like a blob for the first few months) or a large meteor that causes an E.L.E. on the surface of Mars or Earth. Another epic event: McDonalds goes bankrupt because a huge planet is found where the native ...

<t>The use of real starcharts could be nice, 3000 known stars are more than enough. But then the use of the star map in Pioneer would be obsolete. A button so most of the nearby stars on the standard view would receive labels in changing colour for hyperspace range would probably suffice, together ...

It works! Great improvement!

Thanks Marcel

The stderr.txt says "Could not load data/icons/volume_unmuted.png"Allright, that's true because there isn't one. But neither in Alpha12.
