this is what i've meant

well, yeah - okay.

No, LZ is right. Those ships were extracted with a method that cannot be used for any other model in game except ships you can fly. I know it very well cause I've done it
And printed them in 3D as well.
Basically the models were captured while playing, using the simplified rotating models on the loading screen.
Extracting 3D models from in game files, on the contrary, is fairly difficult, if not impossible (read it: 'very well encrypted')... Believe me

like i said you again mis understood whos talking about that video not me please dont comment on someones post with out knowin the full conversation

Seriously - we don't *need* to know.

It always comes back to 'pics or it didn't happen'. Otherwise they're just 'running their mouth'.

Thing is - if they are under NDA then they wouldn't be able to say anything.

Everything that's being said is completely useless to everyone so might as well have been read in tea leaves.


And plus - he first made the pronouncement on thread #7 anyway. it's old news, and forgotten quickly. Hence the dismissiveness - sorry.

Not meant to be personal. But it probably reads like it is.

thank heavens for Riz. if it weren't for you I'd look like an even bigger fool than I already do.

Hope you're enjoying your holiday mate!

You may want to go over our entire 'back and forth' I originally quote LordZoltan. It was you who then quote me, since then it has been you and I have a conversation - or at least that's what I thought.

Obviously I was wrong - sorry.

yes you did qoute zoltan who was qouting me ,niether of us were talking about the video you are talking about, and this is where the misunderstanding lead from so please understand someones post before commenting on it

Anyone notice the new Skin available now, as mentioned in the newsletter? Looks like a Transformer (certainly like one from back in the day). Is this a clue? Are our ships about to become Alien or AI???? OMG!


It's obvious, it must be right!

Posted this before..

Illl do it agian since we are back to basic.


"just a thought"

The image is indeed the navigation ball next to the radar in every cockpit.

Select Merope 5C. Make sure its in the center of the nav ball. Now picture your self that line you see in the UP image. The diagonal one. Then pitch and yaw your ship so the "dot" (merope) moves over that fictional line till it reached the edge of the Nav ball.

What system/planet/nebula do you see now in the center of your canopy glass? That is the system/planet/nebula we need to turn inside out.





(the only thing we need to figure out now, is form what direction we need to target M5C?

and, you know, how far you need to be from 5c and the roll you need to be at.

 

[Vitamin Arrr]

I already said: it's possible they could use base 10.

And I already said they obviously do, since the grid had 10 segments per hemisphere, meaning each segment has a width of .3142 radians. Duh!

If that was the case, why not a simple "looks like you're talking about a different video of his then we are, Nagual", that would have got the reply "Really? When I search for it on Google I only found that one" - I'm willing to admit my google foo may be weak however.

So, as I said above - I'm sorry - however I'd love a link to that video if you have it to hand?



I blame LordZoltan for not stepping it and telling me I'm a silly boy, and giving me dunces cap.

 

[NorMonsta]

uh oh...everyones getting ANGRY again, go back a few pages and stare at my cloud bear pic for a bit.........it'll make you happier

Ok my tinfoil hat is fastened tight with straps - but i think i'm closing in on this.

There is a coded message between 300 - 700 hz in the unlogarithmic spectrograph.
It requires manipulation - i think into a sphere shape to unlock - what looks like text.
I think i can make out the words Merope 5c with imagination.
I don't have adobe or anything and can't find anything free to paste a 2d image on a sphere.

Here is my reasoning.
The first symbol in the left panel has a < with a block below it. I think this is a representation of the spectrogtraph. Line drawing above and blocks of data below.
A dot to the left of the blocks of data says the message is buried here.

The circle is instructions to access the data from below. The upper left sumbol .|. is what we will see once we decode the bottom correctly, analagous to the voyager probe circle in a box. The symbol at the top right of the circle is asking us to bend straight lines into a curve.

The symbols |.. and ..| symbolise start and stop of message. The sphere contains the information to decode the data. First is a frequency range. The diameter of the sphere is 1.6 seconds corresponding to 1.6 KHz. The lines intersecting circumference in the bottom left have x axis and y axis coordinates of 0.33 and 0.66 seconds (Given radius is 0.8s) I believe this indicates the frequency range 333 Hz to 666hz (image fuzzy so could be a bit out - but the 1/3 to 2/3 ratio is nice)

THe radial line in the bottom right quadrant tells us how to paste the image onto the sphere. The image sits between the bottom 1/3 and 2/3 of the sphere to decode the message.
if the message height was (arbitary units) 0.4 (circumference of circle with radius 0.8 is 5 therefore 1/12 of circumference is 0.4) than radius of circle is 0.8

this gives us everything we need but an image editor. Anyone know a simple way to paste a picture on a sphere? i don't have adobe or such, tried some skewing in paint but couldn't get it to work. If i sqwuint my eyes at it i reckon i can make put words Merope 5c....

I will upload spectrograph picture we need to paint on sphere

In that stream he talks about it as if they are as common as muck to find. If that's the case where are all these clues - the tip off missions only seem to lead to human craft in various bits. Perhaps there is a way to work out co-ordinates of another system by doing something fancy with all the tip off mission clues or locations, I have no idea - not that I haven't thought about it, I have - but I can't get any sort of coherent hypothesis together to back up his claims either. Someone else may, but no one as of yet has.

For all we know, the "human craft" are actually alien

sorry dude - literally flaying myself as I write this.

Now I have an image of the monk in "The Da Vinci Code" who self self flagellates.

 

[CMDR Davanix]

Hmm travelling around today after supplying Jacques station and noticed the HYPONIA area is permit locked. Although it just says Required not permit or anything what is this sorcery?

Cheers, with hindsight since you only mentioned "in his stream" I should have asked "which one?", you'd have said "tonights one, Nagual." then I'd have said "Cheers." and scurry off to watch it. I shall now do that, and reflect on what I said and say biscuits to it all. Hobnobs Choc Chip to be precise.

 

[ashtaraa]

For now you could show us the image
For image editing, paint.NET is quite powerful free software you could use

cant go wrong with a bourbon either!!

 

[[VR] Frank_G]

A lot of permits are appearing recently... probably we will rip open a portal, unleashing tentacled and bat winged creatures from somewhere beyond into those locked regions, so they can send forth hordes of space demons to devour humanity...

 

[Raisa]

cannot be used for any other model in game except ships you can fly

so the pictures of stations and their mailslots separatley are flyable ?
