I played Elite on the BBC Model B many years ago, then on the Electron and a few other computers around at that time. Not many more recent games come close to the fun of Elite with it's combination of trading and combat but the nearest, at least to me, were the I-War games (I-War 2 site).

And then I bumped into Oolite :-)

Currently Used OXP's

Aegidian's X-Ships
Clear Skies
Fuel Tank v2.2
Hals Hot Sister
Velocity
and also Isis Interstellar (but I can't recall where I got this one from)

My OXP's (Released)

G-HUD. With thanks to Cmdr. Maegil on the Bulletin Boards this is now superceded by
G-HUD Mk2 which has moved things out from the centre and added a background to the Main Scanner for some extra clarity.

My OXP's (under development, but don't hold your breath !)

A short series of related vessels that will be released as a single OXP. The downer is that they require a moderately capable graphics card to show smoothly.

Escort Cruiser - Military or Police vessel, similiar to a Cobra III but better armed
(No graphic yet)

Light Cruiser - Up spec'ed Escort.

Heavy Cruiser - Up spec'ed again :-)

Vixen - Based around the Light Cruiser, but with some systems removed to make room for cargo and with a lower performance. Vixen.png
