X2 style Display Plane

Post by Llothlian » Sat, 7. Dec 13, 18:06

This is a question I've been meaning to ask for years now. One of my favourite features in X2 was the ability to turn on the plane so that I could orientate myself around the sector.

Basically it put a grid across the entire +-0 "altitude" of the sector allowing you to effectively see where up and down was. It helped me to reorientate myself after a dogfight for example. Is this feature still in the X3 games, how do I turn it on, and if not, does anybody else miss it?

It's called an Ecliptic Projector.

And IIRC it was in X3R but was removed in X3TC/AP.

No idea why. I loved that thing.
