The sectormap page is like that because I don't have a sectormap yet. I either need to make one (ouch) or steal ctishman's.

I suggst stealing ctishman's and putting a very nice little reference to him :D

cheers

I wanted to write an insightful reply here, but I loaded the sectormap page and my brain imploded.

The good news is that my head is now much smaller. :-)

thnks, like your input - it helps alot with a couple
of fresh eyes to check it through =)

dont you think you should give then a quick info about the weponary????

some times (like in my status) the player is new in the style of game, get's it from a friend....he learns latter that he should let any one know about prombles here...(add that), but it would be very usfull to write some info about the wepons, a bit more the is given about them in the game....thigs like the best use of them....
and more...the site is also for people that dont know vendetta!
but how will they get to it???
just by search???
is there sommthing that can be done in that subject???

Accually - the ship and equipment info are in the procress of being written =) As for where to get vendetta - I really never gave it much thought. My conclution to the subject were, that people would check out my links for Guildsoftware, if they haven't tried it - But i really can see your point there =)

The hole site is up for a little redesigning, so the input is really helpfull making out a new design - tnks :)

EDIT: btw - The trading guide will only be an explaination on how to figure out where to sell what. Espesially about the making of the first 500k, and medium profitable tradingroutes for "pirated hours" =) (Since the trading aspect is probably up for a redesign)

EDIT2: damn spelling =)
Jun 20, 2003 lunitary link
i know what you are talking about "damn spelling =) i have the same problem...chears...

do you think it is posible to put a link to your site on the page where you get to find the beta games???
that might be an option because people wont just come to the game if they see it some where (it just came to mind).

Jun 20, 2003 BusMasteR link
Yep - I were just thinking the same thing =D

It'll be added under the What's vendetta later today =)
Jun 20, 2003 lunitary link

Sector 18 Guide updated so it doesn't require high gfx details to find.
What's Up: Sector 16, the gate from 5 - redesigning the frontpage - Some General Tips'n Hints, mainly for newbie's.

Whst we need most is a combat guide as well as ship swlwction and outfitting. Most nOObs such as myself would beneifit greatly from it. Also how to retreat. :p
Jun 24, 2003 BusMasteR link
If you read some of the (actually right) above messages is the ship, and equipment sections in the process of being written ;)

I won't post a guide on combat technics and tactics - period...

I've already somewhat wrecked the devs shot at implementing the explorer-and-you-shall-find element, by posting the USG (Uncharted Sector Guide), and soon the trading section...

But hopefully we will cover most other sections within the game, for now the USG, and Getting started... The messageboard is under heavely development, and so is the trading section...

EDIT: We will how ever touch the subjects of pirates - and somewhat how to avoid, or get away from them... General tips'n tricks...

/me wonders if the TFV guild hasnt got the updated information for the tradingroutes and if they arent willing to disclose it :D

Temporary server up running with the guide, at the same adress:
vendetta.mine.nu
Jun 29, 2003 Dagger link
Well... there's actually several sites for this, not just vendetta.mine.nu.
www.freewebs.com/serco-gate (working on a better URL) is also a place newbs (and experienced players) can learn about weapons, ships etc.

No guides are up yet, but I know that UncleDave's working on a weapon guide.
Check-it-out!

Cheers,
Grim, webmaster of the Serco-Gate.

In Progress: Site gfx, Ship/equipment guide and of ofcause small corrections...

EDIT: btw - i'd like you to drop by the msgboard and throw a note in the "Ship and weapons compo's" thread - of your favorite ship/equipment compo...

I've made an updater for my little script project =)
So far it only covers linux - but win/mac versions are being build (if someone out there is faster out with solution for running them under one of those, please mail me. I'd love to include it in the project, with credits going to you for the port, ofcause)...
Jul 01, 2003 Renegade ++RIP++ link
stupid question, but do you use c for it ?

and you compile with gcc (linux)? Right?

If so, do you use any specific linux C like inb() in stead of inportb()???, and sleep ... .

cheers
