    Xbox Indie Port of Orbiter

    You know that's not a bad approach what happens when you cross sandbox game and a simulation of the highest order possible. Allowing to have a point other than bragging rights when you reach the moon or your choice planet.....hmmmm

    Xbox Indie Port of Orbiter

    I'm a fan of having a large view just me though and your right orbiter is slow to watch its definately no football. I've often wondered if multiplay could be used like a pilot copilot kinda thing? I dunno about that... ---------- Post added at 08:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:08 PM...

    Xbox Indie Port of Orbiter

    Kinect is equipped with 6 mics for voice commands and a web type camera as well as the sensor which is infra red that detects motion. Its how the video is captured with the kinect video chat. ---------- Post added at 10:30 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:27 AM ---------- As far the indie...

Maybe kinect controller combo. My wife suggested I use the digital cam of the kinect system to place the players face on...

    Xbox Indie Port of Orbiter

    The 360 supports flight stick and usb keyboards so controls will be close to pc setup. Biggest difference would be the right stick behaving as the mouse look. Throttle, rudder etc would actually layout alnost the same. ---------- Post added at 07:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:49 AM...

    OS WARS MEGA THREAD (Now debating proprietary vs. open-source!)

    O-F Staff Note: three posts moved here from the Xbox Indie Port of Orbiter thread. Feel free to continue the OS Wars discussion here. Its kinda funny how people will be for defunct OS like linux or opengl render engines yet assume there is more than 4 people on earth using either systems...

    Xbox Indie Port of Orbiter

    I wanted to continue the accidental feedback of what about an Orbiter ported to Xbox 360 Arcade or Indie Games. So I know there are those that feel PC is the only thing that can handle it, however if this were true then Forza Horizon and it's very complicated physics systems would not be...

    General Question how does one contact martins?

    I agree with you. if I were to charge I would put it all back to martins anyhow. orbiter has never been about money and wouldn't want to change that aspect. at the most just enough to cover the costs of having it posted with all extra going back to martin. I'm not greedy lol

    General Question how does one contact martins?

    I have written other games nothing to speak of rpgs, action, a first person but enough to know I couldn't get this ready in a year. it would take meticulous attention to detail and I have the means in which to accomplish it. make no mistake if it was less than what orbiter is I would never put...

    General Question how does one contact martins?

    true... while I agree the architectures are different I feel the xbox could accurately and efficiently represent the engine with most if not all the bells and whiatles if written properly. ---------- Post added at 01:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:51 PM ---------- thank is why...

    General Question how does one contact martins?

    well I guess here is as good as any place to ask, btw thanks for the quick responses, I would like premission to attemp an xbox 360 indie game port of orbiter. I am sure there will be more to it than just building the project with xna 4.0 but I think there are many 360 gamers looking for...

    Idea Other platform options for orbiter

    Linux, PS3 and WINE'ing As far as windowed mode goes, I don't think I have ever ran orbiter that way, but it's just easier for me to print what I want lay it on the desk and have at it, but that's just my approach to it. Linux is great that it's free, and PS3 is ok but the fan base is the...

    Idea Other platform options for orbiter

    Hielor about your ideas The 360 has no plans of being replaced till 2012, and the sdk for the game studio will remain compatible, aka new xbox comes out then you can run the older software on it. What I was saying not everyone is running 3500 dollar gaming rigs, and that those are more...

    Idea Other platform options for orbiter

    Linux and 360 Yes you can run linux on a 360 however, you cannot do so with a legitimate machine. You would need a mod chip which has the linux kernel, and then load the os to the HDD. To answer bluntly yes and no. :) It's definately something to ponder on though.
