If anyone could give me some insight into how this plug-in works, it would be greatly appreciated.

I've never heard of this plug-in, but from the name, my guess is that it contains a resource of type 'l33t', activating EV Nova's easter egg.

What exactly does this easter egg do?

Now that is the coolest plugin.. if only it were possible to selectively duplicate its effects.

So, it's just activating something already in the code, and not actually giving the game any sort of command regarding the lettering?

Correct. It's something Matt Burch did in his spare time.

Where do I get (Nova related thing such as a plugin)?

Well, you could try looking on the EVN Addons page. (url="http://"http://www.ambrosiasw.com/games/evn/addons.html")http://www.ambrosias...evn/addons.html(/url)

It causes EV Nova to translate dëscs and such into 'l33t' language (letters replaced by numbers) on the fly.

Or in my case, causes Nova to crash, and crash repeatedly even after the plugin is removed. grumbles

Yes, yes, I know. Crash log sent to the appropriate place and all that rot.

I just made my own in a about two seconds. There isn't much point in downloading it if you know how to make a new resource in resedit. It is funny for a while.

Uh, if the game is crashing after you remove the plugin, something else is probably amiss.

1t fux0rz w17h the l33t "Last Pilot" f1l3, 17 s33ms, s1nc3 r3m0v1ng 17 f1x0rz 7h3 pr0bl3m.

(it messes with "Last Pilot" in a way that causes EVN to crash on launch. Removing "Last Pilot" and loading the plugin fixes it. LOL! It's amusing for a bit, until you actually start reading things 🙂
