this little project is unbelievable.and if you know coding one can make it even better (curses )still not equaled by anything elsekudos to them!

[GUNSMIF]

if they put an auto pilot in to oolite it would be soooooooooo much better!!!! its too much like hard work lining up with stations and docking by your self! new screen shots look awsome tho! gonna down load just to look at the eye candy,doubt ill play it poperly tho due to the auto pilot issue.i can dock! and im quite good at it, it just annoys me, its meant to be in the future surley if they can suss hyperspace travel they could get a flight computer to dock a a blummin ship lol!!

[IronHound]

You only have to dock manually for a little while, then you can buy a Docking Computer for something like 1500 CR. Not that hard to work towards hmm?

[Shant]

What is this? A mod of another game? I keep seeing the word Oolite and am feeling left out...how old is this game? Will it conform to my lust for eye candy? Or is this another glorified win95 rehash?

[cultist]

It's not really an eye candy.It is an elite remake for windows,they made it so good that it surpassed the original in many ways.And there are many mods to it too.Check this out for more infohttp://www.aegidian.org/bb/

Had a look around the Oolite forums and I think what you have to do if you want The new shader version of oolite ,is to download the oxp which contains the high res models ect,have a look here.I see they have planefall mod now. http://wiki.alioth.net/index.php/OXP

[GUNSMIF]

looked through all OXP`s could not identify any specific one that regarded the new shading jobby, and there where loads!!!!

[Pinback]

There are a few that say they have shader version,the only one I tried is the shady cabra,but it did not look a lot different.This might be the thread about it Ive not got the time to look through it.http://aegidian.org/bb/viewtopic.php?t=3460&start=0

I'm a contributor to the Community. I made several OXP (Oolite Expansion packs) One of them is the Famous planets series that provides textured planets for Galaxy 1. And currently a version for Galaxy 2 is in the making.:A Youtube vid with my own music is here: can watch some new stations and ships with shaders etc in action.

I'm not quite a contributor, but I do my best at the Forum to help Oolite newbs solve any problems they have, and I host the latest installers for all platforms on my website, as well as the all-in-one Griff_Normalmapped_Ships OXP (Oolite eXpansion Pack) which is the set of ships generally regarded as the sexiest currently available for Oolite. Which is not to denigrate the other normalmapped/shaderified ships available, the Neolite ship pack, for example, designed to replace the standard core ships, is also excellent. It should be noted that the Griff_Ships are a work in progress, there are still about 8 ships and some miscellaneous objects to go to complete the core ships set.You can obtain them at my site, Dizzy's Oolite DownloadsHere are some samples of the work done by Griff: And yes, these are all actual in-game screenshots...

This really is an awsome game........answer to docking problems just start the game, make a save, come out of game, look on your hard drive for the oolite folder, double click it, find the saves file, double click, inside select the name that you saved under, and double click, right... you should be faced with (what was to me at 1st ) a load of code jargon. just look down the list of code until u see a docking computer bit with false in brackets n doofers, just delete false and add true...... and TA DA!!!! when you load up next time and start ur saved game you will magically have the docking computer!!!!Way Hey! not bad eh!!?? you can also add credits by using the same method but be care full if your loaded with cash it kinda spoils the game!!
