Here are some links to some OXPs which are not in the in-game Expansions Manager.

  • Phkb's experimental OXPs (see here for the links to discussions & the OXPs):
CompressedJSON.zip is a utility designed for OXP developers. Many OXP's use JSON to package up data into the save game file, and then extract it again when loading the game. JSON is a rather bulky format, though, and it doesn't take long for your data to start making your save game file quite large. Compressed JSON simply reduces the amount of space the JSON data takes up, thereby reducing your save game file. See the readme file inside the ZIP for details on how to use it.
Hermitage.zip gives you the opportunity to own your own Rock Hermit.
Maintenance TuneUp.oxz provides the ability to do a maintenance tune up, even when the normal overhaul is not available.
Population Control.oxz is intended to limit the size of pirate groups in safer systems. The number of police patrols is also increased slightly.
Risky Business.oxz aims to make Multi-Gov, Feudal and Anarchy systems more rewarding for traders, by tweaking prices on a few goods. Goods that are already over the average could be increased. Goods that are below the average could be reduced. Not all goods will be impacted at all locations.
Space Lane Adherance Bonus.oxz was intended as a way of dealing with the go off-lane to avoid pirates recommendation, which is normally given to new pilots who are struggling with combat in the early part of the game. This OXP encourages players to stay on the witchpoint-to-planet spacelane by giving a small monetary bonus to players who stay on or close to it as much as possible.
