Yep, _I_ can look for the file in, probably in the Resources/Config directory, and look it up... but how do I make _the OXP Javascript code_ do that?

Not sure if it works but you can try

Code: Select all

expandDescription[liquor_wines]

after slicing the name a bit

I really hope that oolite will add a whole bunch of new stuffs in the next update. I recommend planetary landing and extra places to the Ooniverse so the game is more like the Elite Dangerous :) Did you have a look a the available expansion packs yet ? Planetary landing for example is available wit...

But I'm too new to Oolite, so I don't know the long time consequences of not removing those entities...

Well, worst-case scenario you will get the infamous "universe is full" message, meaning nothing (including subentities) could be added anymore.

I guess within this week I could offer some better job. Sorry, took me a little longer but here some more examples: https://i.postimg.cc/N0BxTNcz/TEC-Apep-Mk-II-Rusty.png Basic texture, some rusty overlay https://i.postimg.cc/W346Yhtm/TEC-Apep-Mk-II-Blue.png Blue overlayer, specular color in blue a...

For anyone considering using the new materials system on their own creations but may be unfamiliar with what it is all about

Thank you, much appreciated. I will have a look at it but probably earlier or later ask you for advice.

Different OXP there - Dictators. If you want to send some specular/gloss maps through, I can look at adding them to the pack. Although, it looks like you've been doing some reskinning on them anyway! Of course, you are right. This Viper belongs to the local security forces in the Dictators OXP. Whi...

For the Vipers specifically, I thought that their looks with a normal map only were spot on. In my mind, police vessels should look clean and in pristine condition. So just a normal map and global gloss at the default value were good enough to represent the material I had in mind. Good point Admira...

I have uploaded version 1.1 of the OXP. It now contains also the previously forgotten Constrictor.

Donwload link updated in first post.

Incredible, definitely a must for the manager. Just out of curiosity, is there a reason why the Vipers have no specular map ?

This forum is a huge resource itself :!: With a quick search I found two different panther clippers, they are expensive and an acquired taste... http://aegidian.org/bb/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=16380&p=216930&hilit=panther+clipper#p216930 & From the Z-GrOovY BBS ShipPack :) :D http://aegidian.org/bb/view...

You got a great design but you got no idea about weaponry or background story ?
Try https://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Main_Page for some inspiration. While the ship dimensions are most of the time way to high for Oolite Star Wars still could be a goldmine for background stories or even new designs.

I always was wondering why the default-ships lack normal maps, most of Griffs maps could be used and gsagostinhos additions include them as well. In my personal opinion, they just are looking too polished.

I uploaded these ships now to the expansion manager. If you send me the texture you made I can try to use it for different texture variants of this ship. I assume with 3 front lasers you mean the two extra stubs right beside the main laser? When I have time I can take a look at this, I would then u...

https://i.postimg.cc/Vk5Hnm4t/TEC-Apep-Mk-II.png a very simple re-texture before lunch, a little brighter and some blue :lol: Actually I think 3 front-lasers would look cool, I could assign them for you. My personal favorite from the ships I checked here is the Chrysopelea, great model and great te...

I remodelled one of my ships:

You have some great looking ships here, is it just me or are they not available in the expansion pack manager and the ship list ? It would be a pitty, a package of your ships, maybe with different textures, would be a nice addition to Oolite.
