Elite:TNK is no longer being developed due to various issues. Look at OOlite, it's replacement which is a very active open-source project and has a huge range of expansions for it.<br /><br />Head over to get the latest <A> 1.72.x version</A> and visit the <A>BB</A> to meet the folks who support it.kz9999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20638322.post-77457002943797958892009-05-20T23:44:11.855+03:002009-05-20T23:44:11.855+03:00Hooray!

Blasphemy! RD I & II were great games! The "Wah" sound effect alone was worth playing it for!<br /><br />Don't remember Beats of Rage playing well... might try it again.<br /><br />Elite: The New Kind was pretty cool, I remember being quite active on their message board some years back.
