Overview
BackGroundSet (BGS) comes with more than 130 sounds, images for all standard GUI-Screens and with visual effects for docking/launching & hyperjumping. It enhances the overall look and feel of the game and is expandable and configurable.
Oolite will never be the same. It feels like a whole new game.
Features
- FX (Sound eFfeCTS) engine sounds for player ships.
- Radio chatter when in the aegis of the main station or flagged secondary stations.
- FX when docked on standard GUI (General/Graphical User Interface) screens (eg the F2, F3, -- F8 screens).
- All natively supported sounds by Oolite.
- Background images for all standard GUI screens.
- Timed countdowns to witchjump.
- Improved visual effects for docking/launching, witch-space jumps and exits (only if shader support available).
- OXPs can define their own engine sounds, countdowns, chatter and docking sequence textures.
- Configurable by other OXPs (eg for missions!) through Library.
- Joystick throttle jitter handling.
Configuring BGS
With oxpconfig.oxp loaded: While docked, press the 2/F2 key and select "Game Options" - after a pause Step to System Data Screen: F7 should flash up at the bottom of the screen. Select "Configure Supported OXPs" and then select BGS from the list (which may run on for several pages!).
