Pity.

I want a solar system similar to the space part of the game with similar types of ship 'flight'.

That is the last time I was here.

Not much has changed I see.

Anyway, I have a new hard drive, lost everything of my old account and am thinking of starting again.

Can I make a 3d solar system/space themed world (with up, down as well as side to side front to back)?

Not really, then one of us do not get to develope our characters, land on worlds and keep our own avatars, etc.

He does not like my name, and wants his own account/character/ avatar whatever.

You know its bad enough we share a house...

My roomate wants to play the game. We only have the one computer and can only have one account.

I have had very little time to do anything with the game, and world building.

Here and for the game

Was the inverse coloring fixed in the latest patch(es)?

No worries, I have decided to not return to Federation space since that is where the pirates and criminal element hangs out. I am seeking that other collection of Stellar Systems that does have a well tuned government that has abolished piracy and has police for criminal elements such as the Federat...

Attempting to plot my courses by making a paper map to figure out how many jumps to get from point A to point B I discovered that the circle of parsecs is not a circle but an ellipse. So making a screen shot does NOT help to make a map. Is there a 2d representation of the Galaxy available on line so...

Well it doesn't really matter. I only spend once in a blue moon with this game, everytime I return the rules and game play changes and each time I get the short end of the stick. I figured that something like planetary orbit would have an effect on weapons or something like that. Just imagine my sur...

I didn't log off, and I was between aria and Zion I tried to fire and got the message about not able to fire missiles in federations space. Got hit by a missile and the screen when white, locked up. After restarting the game all of my inventory was gone.

But hey it doesn't matter.

Once - I can't fire in Federation space but others can fire missles at me.

Two - I lost all of my cargo when I was hit by that missle although I was not destroyed.

Care to explain what is happening?

My cargo was 31 computers - all of my credits.

The dreaded Client Folder Struck again. Here are a couple three tip to prevent this from happening in future. 1. Always name a changed file (model, texture, blah) to reflect what world it is from with a string of numbers e.g. Oraen_01, Oraen_02, etc. Keep your test files and steps as you go until yo...

Did you see this thread: http://theuniversal.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=132 ?

If not read through that and see if its your problem. if it is the fix is there.

If not then come back here and let us know then we can work out other potential issues that could be the problem.

Make a copy of any of the World maps from the Universal files: Most likely located at this addy on your computer: C:\Program Files\TheUniversal\Clients\maps Anyworld that you go to will have a map in there specific to it. Once you get one of those copied, if you are using windows, you should be able...

I note when I enter either though the Game client or the world client that I get this error message along with the suggestion to hit esc or enter. I also note that all of my music suddenly does not play in the World cleint. I am informed that "Music Track Ended". All was working yesterday ...

*Settings will open up another window, look in the Landscape Settings. I forget the name of the line specifically, what it does is change the size of each tile/grid. Over 600 will make your buildings too far apart for a town or village. Even when you have buildings set to a distance of 0 between eac...

Wow, that seems to be a lot of steps one has to take.

I'll give it a go. Thanks

I need to go to my own world and enter it as a player. Not arrive and type in a code to make myself a player, I need to enter it straight off as a player to see if my allotments are correct, to see if I enter at the right point, and of course to check to see if my schools, bank and a a few other thi...

Try Wings 3d - http://www.wings3d.com/ its easy and you can make simple models.

You need a UV mapper to map a model. Then you need to tweak the planes/facets of the model, move them about, stack them, whatever to optimize the texture map. If you have a building (as example) instead of having all four walls laid out, you can take two sides stack them on top of another and when y...
