developers. start making more mission plugins. all I ever see is new ships and new startup screens thats not bad its just that new missions is what keep the game interesting and exciteing.
Be careful, you're going to end up with a lot of "why don't you do it yourself" replies. Personally, I'm in the early stages of developing a plug-in that consists mainly of new missions and plotlines. I have no new graphics, and only one new ship (a modification of an existing one). I'm glad to see there's an interest for this type of expansion, thanks for the encouragement!
------------------ The last time I was on this board, the price of dumb questions was really high.
I'll second your encouragement! I think more missions would add a lot more than more ships would.. that's a lot of more! There are things that have obviously been left open for new mission strings in the EV:O universe, such as the evacuation of Meria - in its description it says the population are desperate to get out of there. Also something to make systems like Tulir, Helios and Liat worthwhile would be cool; and of course the Voinians could use some mission strings equivalent to say the needle jammer ones for UE, or Free Huron ones - as it stands, most of their systems are terribly uninteresting when you side with them. The ultimate would of course be to have a mission string associated with every system in the galaxy, but that's probably a bit ambitious. Glad to see you're looking past the simple addition of ships though :)!
------------------
Oh goody, more encouragement! I'll have to get back to work on it then. I've completed a few early missions for the UE that will be a part of the central plotline. While I don't intend to use every system in the Galaxy, I want to have it span all the major governments. Right now, I have no plans for Voinian missions, but I will add some if there is a demand for them. Even the Council will figure prominently, but not be the main focus of the plug. I believe DeadMan is about to release a Council plug. His has a lot of new ships, but it looks like it will have a good mission string too.

Well, I'm working on a total converstion, and I do plan on making plenty of mission strings, from taking over Imperial worlds with invasion fleets to the flight-testing of new space craft.
Visit my EVO website! (url="http://"http://artworks.tmgmedia.net")http://artworks.tmgmedia.net(/url)
Check out (url="http://"http://www.geocities.com/destiny_plugs/EVO/evolution.html")The Driving Force(/url). It does almost double the size of the universe and add a ton of new ships/weapons/etc, but that's not the main part of the plug. The new stuff is only for new races that are very deeply intertwined with the existing races. It has a very complicated plotline and an ending that will really surprise you. Druing the plug, you'll solve several mysteries of the universe, including but not limited to: What the Council is. Who the Strands are and why they're at war with each other. Why the Voinians are going around conquring everything they see. (Hint: It's not because they're just imperilistic or xenophobic by nature)
The one about the Council you'll figure out relativly early in the plug. The last two you won't figure out till near the end of the plug, but if you are smart enough, you may be able to figure the Voinian one out yourself ahead of time.
Also durin the course of this plug, you will deal with the Captins of Freeport getting thier hands on Crecent Technology and improving it, and coming up with a formidible Renegade Fleet, the Voinians putting Dreadnaughts into regular production, the Agdzari putting the Enhanced Adzra/Arada into production, as well as the Zidigar Phased Beam Turrent and the Igdzra Beam.

They are going to be a lot of missions, and all of them good (okay slight narcissism here :p)
------------------ Diddly, "Well, we could grind our enemies into powder, but gosh, we did that yesterday."
Every time I try to make a mission the editor shows a bug of some sort and decides not to work.
So that's why.

What editor? EV-Edit tends to be a bit buggy, and EVO God isn't complete yet. If you know how to use ResEdit, you shouldn't have a problem.
With the excetpion of systems, ResEdit is the only way to go. Period.
I am in the process of debugging Chris Hausers SW2. I am also adding a few missions for the Corellian Government. If you can wait another few days, I will have it done and uplaoded to the EVO addons page. Hope you enjoy it

A lot of people want some of this, but not me, I can make my own (unlike peachdude). Ask the EV Developers board.

What I want to know is if there is a version of SchmeltaV for EVO, and if it would work on my G4 without quitting 'error type2' every time I do something. I am scared of ResEdit b/c it ruined my old Performa

Well, since I've got nothing better to do than to do your bidding, I'll get right on it. Bugger off, or go do your own.
