NEvermind too much running in the background and I didn't get it to repeat itself

Okay, I've seen some complaints about font size and now that I can see ALL the fonts, I can actually comment. If you're using the default font, the Times font, you get a MUCH larger font size than you do using the ariel font. For those of you olaying in 800x600, try changing your font.

You may NOT be on good terms with that one ship, but on good terms with the faction. It seems that the faction standings are what determine the dialogue you hear/read. For instance, you're doing a rescue pirate from merchants mission. Your faction relations with the merchants is +100, but...

Grr. . .no dice. It's either a bum P/S, MoBo, proc, or RAM. I can't point at any one component, as they're all new. No spinup from the P/S and I don't have a strong enough P/S to swap out. It's a 300 and the only other working ATX P/S I have is a 150. Linux box will be on an Athlon...

Grep results in TWO directories. Old and New. It's easier this way. I'm attaching a composite screen save crop of my Grep. That way you can see exactly WHICH files and where they are.

Y'know, thinkin' 'bout it, it was ALL dralthi, not just the one, but also on a mission to clean sweep Oxford but every one I ran into was like that. Now for the good part, you can't kill them, they don't hurt you, and you can't tractor them. They remain and keep you from fulfilling the...

Well, they say the early bird catches the worm. What they didn't tell you is, that the worm is a spitting cobra. Unstable? Fitting, goes with the unstable video card. If the new box wasn't going to be a Linux box, I'd have swapped it out by now. At least I started anew and not old. I...

Confeds attacking Militia Confed Broadswords shooting at NOTHING. Just wandering around shooting up the sky. Confeds attacking me when I have a positive rating with them for having shot down a militia ship or two. Pirates shooting at me as well. Hey if they're gonna call me Pirate I...

Ooh. . . Well, good luck at school Now, we'll start with the laundry list from the top. I had to start over again since you went to all the trouble. Just got Poppy's ship, arrived at Achiles for the first time and. . .guess what? Riordian, Pirates, Militia and Retros all hate me...

You hear battle from jump points you aren't near. The salvage is frequently from a downed freighter or capital ship. and that's generally all you can get for it to, salvage prices. 10 cr each.

Thought I responded to this The ships go for 10 cr for Talons, Dralthi & Gothri, going rate for salvage for other stuff. Galaxy, Orion, Tarsus and Centurion are whatever the going rate at that base is for ships. If there is no dealer, you might not be able to get a decent price for them...

The card is by ECS Elitegroup, and it's at least 3 years old. But the chip is an SiS. There was a time when that was the choice chip. Now that, in and of itself, says you're in for trouble. I got it for playing with video and the price was right. Now, I get to decide which box gets what...

To go with the previous image, look at THIS! Note the bottom of the screen. I've been playing for over an hour. Sounds loading, images, all sorts of places, you name it. Those files should be a LOT larger than that.

HUH! I wonder why mine is so different? No argument. Just puzzled. Got somewhere I can send my tre file? And vice-versa? I'd love to see what else is different. While we're on the subject of different, look at the image. Pay CLOSE attention to the dialogue in the upper left, the...

Hrm, so why do I have sales of that stuff in MY game? I swear to you, I DID NOT fudge my numbers. i'm running from my CD, not from a patched game

Well, getting past Kroiz was a bit more difficult. . . Better. More asteroids, no way I could sap in and out like I did before, and almost as challenging as in the original game. MUCH better. The original also had a stiletto, not a Demon, but I understand the reason for the change. Much...

I think my biggest gripe about the pricing scheme is that I can nolonger sell Plutonium and Uranium to the Ag. Planets. It was one of the big money makers in the original game. Especially early on. Once you had enough cash to fill the hold with Uranium and Plutonium a couple of times you had...
