<t> That's right Dragonlead, to roll a capital ship, you have to switch off the "Helm" flight control system. You can cycle between the different flight control systems with the "M" button. The options are "Helm", "Auto" and "Manual". This is true, at least for standard flight model (newtonian). I ...

<r> I too was frustrated with the Broadsword in the beginning. I had just gotten command of my first destroyer squadron and was ready to kill some badguys when a couple of Broadswords came and killed my entire squadron. Later, I realized that the reason my Asher didn't fire PDBs at the Nikes was ...

Err.. I forgot.[X(] The 5.0.2 patch adds trackIR 4 support ofcourse. The reason I don't play with TrackIR for the time being is that I am flying cruisers and don't need it. Just a clarification [:)]

Yngvef...thanks´.<br/>
<br/>
it´s a kind of reply that encourage me to buy the game, beside fighter crasher still exist.<br/>
thanks a lot for this reply. Looks like people around here don´t like to be so detailed.<br/>
<br/>
thanks ...

Now it works!

Run a "Check for game updates" in the TrackIR software, and "Starshatter" will appear in the list.

<t> I just got a mail from Naturalpoint Support: [&o]<br/>

"The developer ID has been released, so you should be able to update the<br/>
games list, and then have 5DOF support within Starshatter.<br/>

Just click the "Check for game ...

<t> I've been wondering about this, but the manual only explains it half-way. <br/>
<br/>
The engineering station in capital ships is a wonderful place, but I still don't understand everything in there.<br/>
<br/>
How do you know how much power a specific system requires? Also, what does the ...

I've made a fix that should appear on starshattermods quite soon. Installation and activation instructions included. It only fixes the Alliance Orion carrier, and not problems with the other two (Dantari and Hegemony). I will try to fix this in the next version. [8D]

<r> I sent to <EMAIL email="support@matrixgames.com"><s>[email=support@matrixgames.com]</s>support@matrixgames.com<e>[/email]</e></EMAIL> and <EMAIL email="support@naturalpoint.com"><s>[email=support@naturalpoint.com]</s>support@naturalpoint.com<e>[/email]</e></EMAIL><br/>

Are those ...

Hmm...
&nbsp;
Neither Matrixgames support nor Naturalpoint support&nbsp;answers&nbsp;my e-mails... Not very encouraging...

Ok, I've made a small mod that fixes this problem for the Orion-class. It should appear on Starshattermods in a while (I just uploaded it).

<t> If they had to wait for Naturalpoint, why didnt they:<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
A: Wait to release the patch until naturalpoint was ready<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
or...<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
B: Tell us that naturalpoint isn't ready yet, so that we won't have to use several hours of trial and error ...

Hairog,
&nbsp;
Nope... I even sent a mail to matrix support, but have gotten no answer yet (I will post here as soon as I figure something out though). The patch doesn't do anything, apparently... What a letdown [&:]

igeighty,
&nbsp;
I think this forum is a LOT slower than you and I hoped for. [:)]
&nbsp;
I see you are a new member too.

<t> You have to run the correct exe-file i think. After the 5.0.1 patch you had to run the Stars.exe instead of Starshatter-TheGatheringStorm.exe to "enable" the patch. Now, it's the original file again to get the menu to show 5.0.2.<br/>

If the patch doesn't add trackir 4... what does ...

<t> Ok, so I downloaded and installed, but TrackIr&nbsp;still&nbsp;doesn't work. The blue light indicating that the game is supported never lights. I tried updating the trackIR software with&nbsp;checking for "Game Updates" but Starshatter didn't appear in the list. I am still running version 4.1 ...

The arrival of a patch the day after I wrote this thread sort of answered my question. I'm glad to see the game still being patched [:)]

<t> This sounds great. I would really love to use my TrackIR in this sim. How do I enable it? I downloaded the patch and installed it. Then I checked the game directory to see what game file was the newest (stars.exe or Starshatter-TheGatheringStorm.exe) and run the latter one. The menu now said ...

<t> Hi<br/>
<br/>
I'm a new user of the forum and have just recently bought Starshatter. I love the game so far, despite some initial frustration, but that's all been cleared up.<br/>
<br/>
I notice that the forum is very slow, and there are no status reports on the development of the game or ...

<t> I agree with you. It's very nice to see space combat sims [:)]<br/>
&nbsp;<br/>
I also totally agree with the Nav point cycling. You should be able to cycle backwards. You can ofcourse create a new route by clicking your ship and then right clicking on the navmap, but that requires you to ...
