this has the orb code in it.  use -orbradar to activate.  this build does NOT have taylors pilot file code.

i think i put this in the wrong forum      

[mrduckman]

I may be able to test it tonight.

[Fineus]

Moved on request.

[phreak]

thank you sir

[mrduckman]

It basically works. I didn't test it further because I'm dying of sleeplessness (ness ness ness).

Someone needs to make an orb model like the one in B5:IFH.

Hey!  Thats really cool!  Works fine, and is really easy to use.

Question though, where is there 2 FSO builds in that zip?  open_r runs the orbs, open_d does not, well, at least for me.

well they use the same code, the _d version is also a debug build incase things go wrong

[Setekh]

I stuck you in the news, btw. Thought it was about time that this forum and its cool products got a mention.

[Flaser]

Hmm...maybe a hud.tbl file should come with the build that doesn't have the old radar display.
That's my 5 cents.

Excelent job BTW!

[Trivial Psychic]

Just one problem Phreak, I couldn't remember the exact command line, so I just clicked on the "activate Orb radar" option in the launcher graphics tab, but the command line it generated was -orb_radar, which came up as unrecognized when I launched it.  After coming back here, I see that the command line is -orbradar without the "_", but you should change it so that the graphics tab option generates the correct command line.

Later!

[phreak]

yea i think i screwed up there heh.

[Trivial Psychic]

For some reason, support ships will not rearm me in this build.  Check Mantis submission for more info.

[Unknown Target]

No glitches that I can see, other than that "orb_radar"/"orbradar' thing.

[Turambar]

make the orb so that its fully visible, my only complaint is not beigh able to see things far away on the sides of my ship, and tracking blinking red dots is near impossible

otherwise it looks cool

[FreeTerran]

i detect a weird bug if i have any background in the mission they all look like suns



and if i move the camera they look much more weird



sys spec. :

amd athlon 1800+
768 mb ram
geforce 4 ti 4200

if you need more info, ask

[Taristin]

No!!!!!!!
