Re: OT: FreeOrion 0.1 out!
Hmmm, I can't seem to get it working. I downloaded and installed but when I select my map and press 'ok' it just takes me to a screen with stars and some green clouds and it does nothing after that. Am I not waiting long enough or what? It seems that by using my mouse I can slightly move the view of the stars around a bit but nothing more then that.

Re: OT: FreeOrion 0.1 out!
nope, that's it. in the release notes they mention that you don't start zoomed in on your home system, so you have to finf it. the bast way to do that (IMO) is to just zoom out a bit (use your mousewheel) and scroll around the map, looking for stars with names that are in colors other than white (to scroll left click & hold and then move the map around).

I joined those forums about a month ago. Someone there kept sending me emails to threads about my site..

Re: OT: FreeOrion 0.1 out!
You will find my username on the forums over there - im contributing and giving them SE4 as ideas to be implemented or at least explored as an alternative idea source to MOO3 which was useless.
