Site Update History

Here, for your enjoyment, is the complete and unadulterated history of the Elite: BTF site.


23-05-2005

  • Added new section called Technical Documentation.
  • Added Hyperspace and Hydrogen Fuels article to Technical Documentation section.


13-04-2005

  • Added new section called Galactic Politics.
  • Added Elite Era page to Galactic Politics section, detailing the state of the galaxy during the time of Elite.

12-04-2005

  • Added picture of Cobra Mk 3 to Ships gallery.  It was drawn by George Hooper at hooplah.com, and shows his interpretation of the internal layout of the Cobra.
  • Added maps of Elite galaxy 1 and the corresponding area as laid out in the Frontier: First Encounters map to the Maps gallery.  Deleted the original copy of the Elite Galaxy 1 map, since the new version is a 16 colour gif and the old one was a JPG.  Much bandwidth saved...

11-04-2005

  • Added The Game section, for reviews and discussion about the actual games themselves.  Also has screenshots of the versions I have played.
  • Added first size comparison image to the Ships gallery.

22-03-2005

  • Added new article about the Tri-Alliance. This was prompted by finally receiving a working copy of ArcElite and its manuals, in which first mention is made.  The actual history and descriptions are conjectural, based on a single paragraph in the manual.
  • Uploaded wireframe diagram of the Wolf Mk 2 for use on the shipyard links page.
  • Uploaded new 3-views of the Cobra Mk 3 and the Wolf Mk 2
  • Added a sidebar link to the forum, via an information page, and changed the link in the main page to point to that information page.

17-03-2005

  • Added shipyard entries for the Fer-De-Lance and Wolf Mk 2 ships. The Fer-de-Lance has a hand-drawn 3-view image that follows the format of the ArcElite ones.  3-views for the Cobra and Wolf are being drawn.

13-03-2005

  • Uploaded CobraCrash image to new Ships section of the Gallery.

10-03-2005

  • Added the Lave Coriolis One forum.

04-03-2005

03-03-2005

  • Redesigned the main page, using a 3-column structure to allow more content to be shown than just the welcome message.
  • Added Articles section, with Dark Future and Wormhole articles.  Note that this is a quick post to make the redesigned main page have working links to articles.
