That ship isn't done justice until you see it with the thrusters blasting. Love the texture work - the spec map almost works like a bump?

<t>Hey there Biomechanoid... That tunnels stuff is interesting... I didn't know they were there until about a day ago. It took a while for me to figure out how to even turn them on at first (Esc > Controls > HUD) and I don't yet have the flying skills to be able to keep straight with them (or the ...

<r>That's good info thanks Tichy <E>:)</E> I'm going to try for an early night - busy day tomorrow, but will have to give the manual docking a try. Edit: P.S. The file you box.com-ed first required me to register, and now reports "The item you are trying to access has either been deleted or is ...

<t>For me the best you could say was,"Look bio, thnx but i do not understand what you try to show me and i´m not interested"That's where you're wrong about me. You see, I *am* interested in learning to play the game, which is why I bothered to start this thread at all.Please stop pulling "T = mf ...

<t>Some good tips here thanks.Fluffyfreak - yeah, I think I got the how trust works in a void understood now. That would have been why I earlier found it so difficult to have a low fly-over Mars surface without ultimately being catapulted into space. Some of the autopilot things look confusing still ...

<t>Yes, I saw that other thread. Sorry, but it kind of lost me in the first post. It looked more like a dramatisation / story than an actual intro. there was this long conversation between Bio and Braben and none of it was helping me understand what I should do to play the game. I'm slightly ...

<t>So far I've been able to hit F5 and take off, pull the wheels in, fly out to space, maybe hyperspace to some-or-other location I'd locked in with the map. Rarely do I get close enough to another system to land before I run out of fuel. I'd like to maybe pick some of the missions on the bulletins ...

IMO Blender is marginally better as 64 Bit. It can push things like sculpting and cycles further as well although some of that is of course GPU dependant.

<t>I wonder if it's worth starting over, but if I can run Pioneer and QBasic I'm happy. That depends on whether you're working on heavy packages which might take advantage of the extra functions. For most purposes 32 bit is fine. I switched to 64 bit because I found that my favourite programs never ...

Just got back on today to find all the work you've been doing to get Pioneer 64 bit / Ubuntu working. Thanks heaps. Have downloaded and it successfully runs Now I can have some downtime from my real-life workload and fly around in ultra spaceness... Awesome. :preved:

<t>Latest LTS Ubuntu = 12.04This has libglew 1.6 Pioneer wants libglew 1.7 Even if I went non-LTS (which I'm not going to do because I've ended up in the nasty "you're on your own now" for doing that before) the higher up "experimental" Ubuntu versions stock libglew 1.8 So has anyone got the latest ...
