I haven't seen anything like this for a long time, but I can believe it. We used to have a problem with turrets scanning us for cargo. That's been fixed, but something similar could be causing this (though it's weird that it doesn't happen here)

You might try downloading using bittorrent. We put the specs in, which required editing some things. We used freely available tools, which means you can edit the data and put in your own stats :)

Downloading with Firefox has in several instances borked the download. It should be downloaded with some download manager, or with bittorrent. That will get you the correct file and save some of the mirrors' bandwidth. At least you can fix the version you downloaded in Firefox it with...

If it was a problem with that I'd think I would have seen it, since it showed up for me on the ejection seat. Of course, the ejection seat's coordinates were really weird. I'll take a look at those two bases and try to adjust. They are rather high poly and I'm afraid wings will garf if I try...

It's some small fraction of a unit per second now to keep the balance as close as possible to the original.

Bob's done a model of the Quine (I think it was him). It remains untextured though, a fate that hangs over so many of our models. While 8000 is a good max polygon count for a ship, anything above 2 or 3 thousand should really come with a LOD version of absolutely no more than 1000 polygons...

They are stored as bfxm. Using the included mesher.exe you can convert them to .obj which I imagine max could load. Search around for some posts about how to use the mesher.

Just one? That makes my day. In the original there was a system map and a quadrant map. I do not believe you could look at any systems other than the one you were in. If someone calls me on that, I'll go check it out :)

I think you underestimate how long ago I conceived of the remake :) There was simply a years long gap between the idea and the beginning of earnest work (though some things, like the centurion cockpit, were done around 2001). What you said remains fundamentally true of course :D Vegastrike...

Indeed. Currently it has one level lower shield than the centurion (but makes up for this by being smaller and harder to hit) while having the same reactor, thus having more firepower. *If* there were to be a user flyable demon in the game, it would need to have its shields and reactor lowered...

All the player ships let you mount 10 missiles per slot (as in the original, except you don't buy the launcher) Some other ships have slots that only accept one. You probably have one of those somehow. That possibility is one of the things that will be corrected.

You can mount a tractor beam in place of your missiles anytime. To mount it in a gun slot instead, as has been mentioned you need to buy tractor beam capability for that slot, which then lets you actually buy the tractor beam and mount it there. Avoid that confusion by simply mounting them...

I'm seeing a few bugs in here, but mostly a lot of things that are simply different from the original, and thus not exactly bugs. Bugs are things that are broken ;) It is still true, it is simply no longer automatic. You can use it for trade in if you shoose to sell it ;) Otherwise it...

I've never had my monitor turn off whule playing ;) Yep. It's a lot the same as the junk you sometimes see as the system switches to bootsplash when it shuts down (if you use bootsplash ;) ).

Sounds like you got unlucky and bumper her with her shields down significantly enough that her armor was damaged.. They can shrug off a nudge or two, but when you start doing physical damage to the ship, they get a bit annoyed. In that case, run away, or sweet talk each and every one that is...

If your joystick has a throttle you don't wish to use, choose 2-axis joystick in the setup and it will only use x and y (no throttle)

I unfortunately do not have an AMD64 so all of this is hard to test. Am I to understand that the binary actually runs on a 64 bit OS (provided you get everything installed)? That is actually rather surprising :p You can always use whatever text editor you choose to mess with the settings...

VGA and the rest are standards for resolution and colour depth. CGA 640 x 200 (black and white) or 160 x 200 (16 colours) EGA 640 x 350 (64 colours) VGA 640 x 480 (16 colours) or 320 x 200 (256 colours) SVGA 800 x 600 XGA 1024 x 768 SXGA 1280 x 1024 UXGA 1600 x 1200 I...

And how would you control the game with 6 keys? Or 10 or whatever it is? Would also require a load of texture reduction. Check this page comparing the original textures for Deus Ex 2 with fan made higher res textures for the PC version. They were made because, stupidly, they used the same...
