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

Cloning wares breaks vanilla gameplay

Posted by Roguey     Comments 0 comments

Today I learnt a way of cloning wares in X3TC. The progress requires you to have 2 ships and 1 freight drone (nothing else!). This method requires no mods or scripts (not even the bonus package): so it works in normal vanilla games, and keeps your game unmodified! This is because X3TC has a glitch i ... » 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

Site address changed to x3tc
