I posted this on the Newswire, but why not post it here? Anyway, I have an idea for a plug, and I've got the general story finished, but I need some help.
Here's the story so far: Mankind leapt for the stars as it did to all other frontiers (that just had to be in it :p) and colonized planet after planet, system after system. Soon they reached the Aqua cluster, a nebula full of H2O, causing it's worlds to be full of water, full of live. After centuries of peace, humans had forgotten the art of war, but their empire spanned thousands of worlds. Then the Quen'sha arrived. Humankind struggled to survive, dismantling all kinds of equipment, rebuilding deadly weapons from times far in the past. Alas, with that, they made their own fate. As security systems grow old, cannibalized by human soldiers, accidents occured. One of them was catastrophic. The Aqua Nebula, center of military might, got cut off from the outside world. The panicking citizens grew into two camps: the Keepers, who wanted to become part of the Central Human Government again, and the Ionay, the people that tasted freedom and who would never want to lose it again. This is were you come in. Just out of the Ionay Military Academy, you are assigned a fighter, and a mission: keeping the Keepers from winning...
That was it. If you're intrested, mail me at filip@unit17.com. I'm also playing with the idea to, as the player is part of the military, let him/her buy ships and weapons for free. Of course, they all would have disadvantages as well, so no super weapons. Opinions?

I highly doubt that, but the rest sounds good. I doubt i can help much, but email me if you think I can. The problem is I have had thye game less than a week and my graphics software is limited to AppleWorks 5.0.3SwampFox(FN)"Bring me an idiot, and I will be looking at two."

What, I can't put a little drama in?
sounds cool Sorrey can't help Great story, even though the idea of humans forgetting about war is impossible. you will always get a mainiak like Saddam Hussain starting a war.

Well, I can change that bit. I'll just say they didn't have war in decades, and that weapons got old, and rusty
Sounds good. How can I help?
Details. That's what you're gonna need to post if you want any help. And you'd probably get a response if you tried posting on Blazer's Alternative EV/O board. I know Ambrosia don't like it much, but there are plenty of people there, and, with the possible exception of Typhoon, they're all fairly helpful.
I'm fairly adept with ResEdit coding, but don't enjoy it too much. I'm currently unable to help with graphics, but hope to get Infini-D back soon. I'm a bit of a wannabe writer, so anything along those lines is probably my "speciality".
Ok, that's it for this post...

I'll do the details if you still need someone. I'm a good enough writer... e-mail me at BigblueShockwave@aol.com.
Another writer?
Sounds good. He may have to kill me first... heh.
The first thing I want to know when someone asks for volunteers is: what other projects has this person been a part of, or preferably coordinated.
If you're an experienced plug creator, say so. Name the plugs and we'll probably all get excited about the project and innundate you with offers of assistance.
If, on the other tentacle, you're new to the world of EV:O plug creation, then this convertion, as described, is probably too ambitious. If all you're bringin to the party is the 'general story', people might be - understandably - reluctant to join forces with you.
So, if you have previously created a plug or two - even a small one like 'Mars Colony' or something, it shows everyone that you can do the job. Better a realistic objective that gets achieved than a massive plug that never gets finished.

Well, to be honest, I never made a plug. This won't be a large conversion, though. I currently am working on the descriptions of planets, ships weapons, etc. Ionay space is finished, as well as ships, and weapons almost.
Board created! Go here: (url="http://"http://members2.boardhost.com/ionay/")http://members2.boardhost.com/ionay/(/url)
Have fun.
I don't like to say this... but the idea is there.
If you've never done a plugin before, even a little one like my QuitFE, nobody will really trust you. My suggestion, therefore, is to go and create about five small plugins (should take you only a few hours) - post them, then try again.
I'd almost guarantee you a good response from most of this lot.
However, as it is, you're probably being too ambitious.

I am not afraid.

Well, I'll do that tomorrow, if you really want that. Now it's just to late to go and mess with Res-Edit
I'll wait for the plug....

You should post your request to the developer board. There are a few experienced guys there that should be able to help.
