It's a shame you can't record on X3?
or can you?

I believe you can record in x3 try looking through the button options in your option screen to find the button to start recording.
Or find a program called fraps it can record in-game too besides taking screens and showing FPS.

All sounds good to me,
but I was wondering were we going to have a seperate 'modded' sub-section for each section (or not)?,
it just that some of the effects in XFP & XTM graphics blow the vanilla away (as long as you like gaudy

) :

we talked about it before,
if we have separate modded then we might spread the screenshots a bit thin... we only get 3-6 screenshots per category on average, I think.

It'd make more sense to split up if we get over 15 screens on average, where half of those are from modded...

for now, just put (modified) next to the screenshot...

I do not know if I can/should get a MySQL DB, but I could write a simple PHP page that will take the input and give the formatted output of the entry.
Does anyone think it'll be useful? This way there won't be any questions and inconsistencies about submitting entries

OK.
How would you get a PHP page onto a forum page without ES special cooperation?

fiksal · Post by **fiksal** » Wed, 6. Jun 07, 20:51

the page is gonna be on my web site
