Is anyone still playing in 2018?

Thanks for the tip about the damage and v-sync!! Yeah I am able to play games at work sometime. Great job right ?

I had the opposite response. When I play EoC, I usually play the campaign right up to the point where I have access to the rest of the Badlands, and then I stop and just fly around doing my own thing. If I get bored I'll advance it to the point where all the Maas ships turn red and then stop again.

Elite's definitely got a way to go before it's a game, but it's shaping up to be just what I'm after. Of course, I'm the kind of person who will play the Traveller pen-and-paper RPG ( www.farfuture.net ) solo. So sandboxes are right up my alley.

I was finally able to get this beast working again by soldering a USB to Gameport adapter, especially made for the FF Pro. Hooray!





Now I just need to find a case for this thing.

Just use a 3D printer, and you're done. ^^

If you buy one for me, I'll sure do!

Funny thing: Just today I found an offer for a cheap but apparently very good 3D printer: hobbyking.com/de_de/malyan-metal-3d-printer-m200-2.html

However, apparently it's out of stock on this website (but still available over Alibaba), and I found one review that states it's good. I asked the German c't magazine if they can review it. If they do that and the printer turns out to be good, it will be mine, as 200 € is what I'm ready to shell for such a thing.
