Every change of the x3_universe file requires a restart.

Is this all based around upon Connary's orignal x3_universe map, the X:TC 3.0 one or the latest X:TC 3.1 map?

Connary's original

Magog, If you have any future plans in developing this addon you could add a just a slight touch of yellow color to The Sun I'd would be more realistic

I'm not sure it would be more realistic, it's the sun as seen from the ISS:

The color of the sun as seen from the earth is more yellow because of our atmosphere.

So for clarification, can I expect (for the most part) to be able to play an extended playthrough with the original mod (RC1) and this Solar System release or are there any game-breaking bugs to worry about (such as the planet-destroying-everything sector mentioned a few pages ago)?

Magog, that is looking plenty good

The rest of you, remember you can use the TC to TC converter so you can import your empire into a new map. Thus not needing a new restart every time.

@ RemyLebeau88
The update from Magog does fix the insta-kill planet, yes.

Cheers!

On elite-games I've found interesting script.

According to description, it makes illusion of sector's rotation around planets.
So no static planet positions on background.
Have no time to try it out yet, but this idea definitely can add more immersion.

How much more you think you need to do for it to became finale??

With the recent update by Magog I think it's pretty much done.

Tried this script out and... It does do what advertised. However space body movement is hardly noticeable. Not sure about CPU load, I've not noticed performance drop or something

If you want to try it too: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/18265894/x3tc/x ... nets_1.rar

No need to start new game on install|uninstall

On topic. This mod is GREAT, thanks to Magog for continuation.

Is the RC1 with the 1.1 patch 3.1 compatible?

I just tried it with a new "terran defender" start. Why is it sooo foggy around neptune? It looks awesome though. I checked a couple of adjacent sectors and they blew me away.
I am using it with 3.1, Ship rebalance mod, combat mod and exhaust trails mod with no issues so far.
