    PR Versus Origin's Privateer map discordance

    I can almost gaurantee there are no missing nav points in the systems I've done (I do have all the maps, see below). By that I mean every nav point that shows on the in game map is in the remake. If you mean certain enemies attacked you between nav points in the original and none appear at...

    Mirroring Privateer Remake

    A few people have mirrorred it without asking (which we appreciate). Of course we'd love another mirror, it makes life easier for all involved. Check email.

    PR Versus Origin's Privateer map discordance

    Beta, Delta etc were not done by me. I'll get them for 1.1. (I've only done the systems that were available at the beginning of the game. Those that were available (like Blockade Point Alpha) were mapped out from within the game, and should be pretty correct, though I might have goofed...

    Flight Commander + Linux

    Looking forward to trying it out :) You're trying it out on Knoppix? Have you installed it to the hard drive or are you doing all your linux dev off of a liveCD? :eek: Thanks for your efforts porting, I really appreciate it.

    why is my radar still black and white

    Hunter packages only did red for enemies and blue for friendlies. Nav points, planets, cargo etc were all grey. Only B&S did full colour. ITTS is easy to fix (glad this was pointed out). Making Hunter display only some colours will be a bit tricky.

    milspec glaxy

    Milspec was an unfortunate choice of words. It was meant to signify a ship that was already equipped. There is nothing about the 'milspec' ship that is any better than what you can put together yourself from the stock ship, just that they o the equipping for you. pre-equipped ships will not...

    Enemy lasers vs. mine

    Delusional is a strong word ;) But they have the exact same lasers you do. If your energy banks are depleted, the firing rate goes down as you have to wait for a little charge to build up before the next one fires, but beyond that, firing rate/strength/whatever is the same.

    New Models Dump Thread!

    You can choose on a per-mount basis whether to use an attached weapon model or not. For something like the Strakha, you would choose not to use them, and just go with what's built into the model.

    Militia Paradigms?

    I'm not trying to define militia as the Coast Guard, that was others earlier in the thread ;) Just wondering how we know what the militia does beyond Donut jokes, and your quote from the guide does nicely. Funny how InSys is mentioned so much, it really would lead one to believe they were...

    Hadrian's intro animation

    Hadrian just sent me an intro he is working on for Privateer. He has up through where the pirates launch their missiles. Although the framerate is halved for now and he says the visual look is not yet complete, what he has so far is stunning. Have a look at it here.

    Militia Paradigms?

    The way militia is usually defined, it sounds a lot like the National Guard we have now. Of course there's all the donut jokes in Privateer, as noted :) InSys does get mentioned in Privateer too, the pirates always tell you to watch out for it. I always assumed they meant the militia. Maybe...

    Poll -- take two

    Spirit, while I'm all for a more laissez faire approach to moderating (in all the forums I've moderated or administered I've banned one person, for linking to g0at5e), don't try to rely on the First Amendment. I see people invoke the First Amendment all the time on forums, and it's a bit of a...

    OS X Joystick - Hatswitch?

    Doubt the hatswitch has anything to do with it. A throttle or twist capability seems more likely. It sounds like one of the axes is wrong, play around in vegastrike.config with what each axis does.

    Eden system -RF final mission?

    Grey moon can be added. If we wanted to be cute, we could even add it to the background image (as in the original) instead of having an actual object ;) Jump point is of course easy to add. I need to fire up RF to grab the exact coordinates, then think about the possibility of jump points...

    Harder to do pltline in WCU

    If you want to play the plot, playing the remake is preferable. I think the plot in WCU is vestigial.. Mostly true (assuming you haven't changed this aspect ;) ). If you pound away at shields for long enough, people will get fed up with you. As it is though, at least they won't turn on you...

    Reckoning Gives Out Birthday Treats (March 26, 2005)

    They seem broken here. the combat vid plays about half a second then dies, the dealer vid gives an error and trying to play the jump vid my player tells me "AVI: Missing video stream!?" Virtualdub refuses to open them as well. Pretty sure I have the right codecs or I wouldn't have seen that...

    Thanks for the great job!

    Great to hear :) Thanks for taking the time to leave some feedback. Watch for a patch sometime soon.

    No joy with my joystick

    Sounds like one of the stick's axes is doing the wrong thing. Fiddle around in the config file and swap them or just try setting it to a 2 axis stick in the setup program.

    The Oxford missions

    Not sure why it would be so variable (the numbers in the file are quite concrete) but I'll look at it. Good job on beating it! It was pretty hard in the original too :)
