The new stable version of Oolite, version tag 1.80, is now available for download from the brand new www.oolite.org for Mac, Windows and Linux. On the download page you will find both 32-bit and 64-bit binaries for Windows and Linux, while the Mac version is 64-bit only.

Version 1.80 comes with a large number of new features, including but not limited to, an in-game Expansion Pack Manager for easy and efficient installation, updating and removal of expansion packs, a significant ship graphics update for the core game, new sound library for enabling positional audio, a starter tutorial, new visual effects, improved NPC AI and many more. See the changelog for a full list of changes since version 1.77.1.

Once again, we would like to wholeheartedly thank the Oolite community for your feedback, ideas, input and restless testing during the development of the new stable version. The game would have been nowhere near where it is now without you. It really is exciting seeing Oolite being developed as a team effort, with your participation and enthusiasm being a very significant part of the process. We hope you will enjoy the result of this collaboration and we are looking forward to your feedback.

Safe flights, commanders.

Upgrade notes

If you are upgrading from a previous version:

  • Make sure you remove the OXP version of an expansion pack before installing the OXZ version either manually or through the built-in manager. Oolite cannot automatically detect that an old OXP is the same as a new OXZ.
  • Note that the keyconfig entries have changed. If you have customised your keys, you may need to add five more keys to it. If you are using the default keys, dump cargo is now 'shift-D', not just 'd', and the num pad arrows are now bound separately to the normal arrows.
  • A few OXPs may not work as expected in 1.80 without upgrading them to the latest version, or applying a workaround. See advice on upgrading existing installations for more details. Replacement shipset OXPs and HUD OXPs may need particular attention.
