      Background Music?

      Thanks Heskey! A bunch of stuff, but mainly Cubase 7, Kontakt 4 (old but I can\'t afford the upgrade yet), Reason. FWIW I dropped Schema an email. I don\'t know if he already has someone in mind for music/sound (maybe he\'s not planning any at all!) but I\'d love to work on a few atmospheres and...

      Background Music?

      I actually started a piece of music the other night that\'s kind of spacey (heavily Star Trek inspired). It\'s only an intro mind! https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/58601821/Sleepwalker%20-%20Intro.mp3 I\'m almost always thinking of sci fi films and games when I write! I\'d love to have a...

      Noob question

      I\'ve managed to raise a fair bit of cash by just salvaging stations. Only took me an hour or so before I had a few tens of millions. The only limit then is shop stock, but I found one way around it is to just buy your own ships back, enter build mode, remove the blocks and remove the core...

      Astronaut Cam: Orientation/Rolling

      +1! I have to remember to re-align my ship before exiting it otherwise, quite often, I\'m unable to get back in unless I mine/remove blocks (particularly if the ship is aligned along the Z axis).

      Hello from England!

      Hey guys! I've been lurking around here for a few days now, making the odd noobish request for help. Just thought I'd introduce myself. My name's Paul. I'm a musician and composer from wonderful sunny Essex. I do 3D modelling on the side as a hobby, usually making ships. So now I can make ships...

      Orientation not displaying blocks

      Just bumping - as a temporary solution I line up my 3D view so that a \'ghost\' of the block is visible on top of the ship I\'m building. That\'s working reasonably well at the moment but just wondered if anyone else was having problems with the 2D orientation thumbnail.

      Navagations, Engines and Travel

      It\'s like \"Into Darkness\"; why have space ships at all when you can just teleport halfway across the galaxy. The concept of building and using ships is kind of undermined if you can just go anywhere you want without one. So I\'m against it on that basis. I\'d agree though that there should be...

      Orientation not displaying blocks

      I\'ve also enabled it in the options and no luck!

      Orientation not displaying blocks

      Hey all, just getting into this game and I've found that the orientation command doesn't show me a thumbnail of the block, making placing turret mounts and wedges pure guesswork. Any ideas what's up? Thanks!
