X-Suspended.... for the time being at-least

Posted by Roguey     Comments 5 comments

I've been a big fan of Egosoft over many years. I started playing egosoft games from X-BTF right up-to X3TC (and every game in-between). I had many great moments whilst playing, exploring new systems, talking to races and learning new things. However over time ive felt a bit unvalued by Egosoft. Ple ... » Read more

Ship vote changed for X2, X3 and X3TC sites

Posted by Roguey     Comments 0 comments

Ive been looking at the ship review/vote system and thinking how I could make the fields more useful: ie. trade useless isnt really helpful, as trading simply needs a big cargo bay and a fast engine. So now the system has some completely new fields such as: Usefulness, Anti-Fighter and Anti-Capit ... » Read more

Chat to other fans

Posted by Roguey     Comments 0 comments

In the past few days ive re-designed the area chat from a IRC style room to a shoutbox design (written by me). The new shoutbox style chat means that messages are kept on the server, so you can drop by from time to time to check for new messages unlike the old system were you needed to stay logged i ... » Read more

You can now Blog about X-Games

Posted by Roguey     Comments 0 comments

For awhile ive been thinking about changing the blog code so you can post your X-Related stories directly onto one of the X sites. With the blog system you can post your own stories, tips, guides etc on any of the sites. The system also has support for picture uploading, which you may find useful (I ... » Read more

I was wrong about the end of X-Universe

Posted by Roguey     Comments 0 comments

I will emit I was wrong about the end of the X-Universe however in my defence the story-line has ended. A few days ago egosoft announced their new up-coming release entitled X Rebirth on the 20th. This is egosoft's next big thing (ie. TNBT). In celebration of a new X game, I have created a new X ... » Read more

Community scripts and mods removed

Posted by Roguey     Comments 0 comments

I decided to remove community scripts and mods from X2, X3 and TC sites. I did not want to remove these sections, however they never got updated. The sections have been up for along time and not been added to 6+ months. It is a shame as I wanted to build a community list of mods and scripts, which I ... » Read more

Automatic sector map scaling X3/TC

Posted by Roguey     Comments 0 comments

The title sounds like a mouthful, but simply means the sector maps for X3 and Terran Conflict now scale depending how big the sector is. This should stop things like gates, stations, asteroids etc. appearing outside the website area, as before things were all over the page. The scaler can now do 3 d ... » Read more

Community votes fixed

Posted by Roguey     Comments 0 comments

I was looking at the user list, when I noticed Dathion had posted some votes for community content. I noticed he had two votes for the same thing, so I had a look at my code and noticed some bugs in it. I have updated the code, so the community voting should work now. The reason for the bugs was tha ... » Read more

Ship votes reset and updated

Posted by Roguey     Comments 0 comments

I have decided to restart the ship votes for X2, X3 and TC because I wanted to change two of the fields in the votes: Admiration and Usefulness - both seem a little too general. So I have replaced them with Combat and trade usefulness (which should be based on its class). This way you can rank a M5 ... » Read more

I have upgraded many sections of both the X3 and TC sites including dynamic to static paths for ships, Terran sectors added for TC (I will add these to the map soon, go via Heretics End atm), added sector name when searching the universe and a few more things which should help. Terran sectors ha ... » Read more

Staff wanted?

Posted by Roguey     Comments 0 comments

I been thinking about expanding both the X3 and TC sites to allow for 'community' news to be posted on this site. I feel there are very few sites that report news about the X-Universe like new mods/scripts released. I personally cant report the news as I cant spend that much time at the egosoft foru ... » Read more
