Just for the record: I liked the last song, I personally like hard rock. Haven't downloaded this yet but I'm adding it to getright's list now :)

You can set it's dead zone and limits in the Gamming Options>Properties screen on windows anyway. Also have custom key bindings which was vital for games like tachyon, in which you could good use of lighting fast weapon combos to kill almost instantly before the other guys shields had time to...

Yeah I wish they had let you kill him, that's what I said I'd do if I ever found him. :mad: I still think fixers aren't very believable, I like the way X2 worked better, you could hire a hacker to make it so you could land at a base that otherwise wouldn't allow you to but IF I remember right...

Oh that's ok, at more then one point I had killed so many confed the kats were all friendly. Only guys you don't wanna piss off are the hunters, they are relentless, always showing up in the far flung systems and those orions just won't die. Pirates are bad to piss off in the early stages...

Me either but that's what I did the first time I played Privateer, don't think I could do that anymore unless someone put a gun to my head. I didn't know the sidewinder was discontinued... figures oh well I can go back to liking MS only for their mouse now but if my current joy breaks I might...

This isn't a WC mod project so I posted in off-topic but I was wondering if anyone out there has any experience in this area? I am trying to figure out the models from Tachyon: The Fringe, I've got some baby steps in but it never hurts to have a few extra pairs of eyes (or brains). Anyway if...

I'd sure like to see conquests of the longbow re-released. That reminds me I need to see how the space quest 7 fan project is comming along.

Can't stand logitech, they always break after a few weeks. I like my sidewinder. It would be cool to see pirates flying other ships, think of the second episode of WCA for example.

Call me old fashion but I think there are only 3 main things that matter at the end of a game like privateer/Pioneer, money, ship upgrades and kill totals. I'm all for easter eggs though but if you're a privateer wouldn't you live on your ship? Wouldn't that be the best prize/reward for taking...

I heard making programs for mac is alot of trouble. Someone also said that's why there are less viruses on macs.

I have some cookies turned off so the remember me option doesn't seem to work, I time out all the time. A bit of a hassle but oh well. The thing about open source apps, take blender for example, you can commit changes but that doesn't mean it'll make it into the main tree. The main devs...

It's sad open source gets a bad name, don't be fooled alot of open source apps do fall by the wayside but when done correctly they can be the best apps in their field of interest. Alot just lack three main things, motivation, interest and organization, the last one being key to any...

Well they seem to be doing just fine making their own engine. I wouldn't mind seeing more open source, moddable engines around. Since I'm not much of a coder. But I don't think vegastrike is ready to do what they're doing with this project. In any case, let em put out the demo first at least...

Hmm here I thought it was me, BC2K really did suck. Now I don't feel so bad for uninstalling it and throwing the disc away. :D Almost forgot that game ever existed.

Well in X2, you could capture ships and sell them, it was about the best way to make money without doing LOTS of flying around. Plus you couldn't get pirate ships in your fleet any other way (at least not that I know of). The way it worked was once you got a ships damaged to a certain point the...

Sorry to bump an old thread but I made my living in Privateer looting ships. I had confed so pissed they had a heavy and 3 broadswords at almost every jump point. :D That was fun running like heck, shooting em off my back with the aft turret. You could do very well as a pirate, I upgraded my...

Take it from me, I rushed out my tachyon mods without enough testing and regreted it. Don't give in to fan pressure, do it right the first time. Test test test. This is not the right place to ask this but do I understand correctly that you're using the "Fusion Engine" of Descent 3? That...

Looks good, nice job man.

Hey that's cool about 3D cockpits, I've missed that for a long time myself. Some people don't like them because they can't see what's going on but just floating in space kills the feeling of flying a ship. Something I liked about tachyon was that they had engine sounds, so you could hear the...

I haven't followed this project as closely as I would like to so just a quick question, all be it a bit off-topic: I've seen the QTVRs and was wondering if you're using QTVR inside the game itself or if that's just to show the design?
