This is a space-sim based slightly on Elite. I have just recently rediscovered it and it has improved. There are large battles and stuff, better physics and an Autopilot for the SPEC drive. It's even better now. I think it will take up my weekend and a weekday (Yay! No school on Monday!). If any of you guys are interested here is the link. http://vegastrike.sourceforge.net/

Ah yes.  This game was promising the last time I tried it.  I suppose it's about time I took another look at it.  Too bad I can't use my joystick with this computer.

I forgot about Vega Strike; I wonder if my computer can run it. Hope it's multi-threaded...

I could never get into it, just was a bit meh.

@Keiseth: whatever it is, it's very well done.  I'm running a 1.8 ghz laptop with 1GB RAM and a 64MB graphics card, and I get better framerates on it than I do on DF.

It looked promising... but fell somewhere between a 3000 AD title and Freelancer without the awesomeness of mods.

There is a remake of Wing Commander: Privateer using the vegastrike engine that is pretty cool.

Oi I just remembered why never got into this:

The lack of anyway to change keybindings if you don't know how to program.

How the hell do I switch the Joystick Roll and Rudder commands around.

The defaults for this are absolutly terrible.

I mean why can't they just put a way to edit commands from inside the game... you know like 99% of other games.

Edit:
Managed to fix it but eh.
