Why do I always have the same problem. I always put in the right resid's for the mods i need to, then I test it, and it never works. I have tried a beam, and fighter bay. Neither of them did anything. For the fighter bay, i checked 2nd trigger, and when i flipped through my secondaries, it never showed up. Any body who has done this stuff please help...!

Is your copy of Nova registered?
------------------ The answer is, obviously, 42!

That's definitely one reason why it might not work.
I doubt he would post it here if it wasnt registerred, it says clearly when you try to start EV Nova with an unregistered copy and have an Add On in it that you need to register.

how do you make plugs anyway?

I asked that same question when I was a newbie to plug developing. But it gets simple as you go along. You will definintly want get the Plug-In Developers guide. Just e-mail me if you want it. It is very thorough. You will want to start with the 5 minute Plug-In. Something simple. Just a month or 2 ago I knew nothing about the Plug-In thing too. But now go to the (url="http://"http://homepage.mac.com/grrnovadevteam/index.html")GRR(/url) site and see what me and some freinds are coming up with. Hope things go well with the plug dev.

of course it's registered. I can see the outfits, and buy them, but when I fire it, nothing comes out of my ship. For a fighter bay, I checked 2nd trigger, and I swaped through my secondaries when I bought it, and it never showed up.
To:what_is_the_matrix, I think I have the latest update on my webpage. Use this URL to download it. http://www.angelfire.com/mac/links2/downloads/myplug.sea If it doesn't have any outfits or anything like that, then email me at: macfan@ev-nova.net -OR- scifi_potatoe122@lycos.com
Uh... You're going to have to ask a more specific question than that. I hope that you're not "Disco Bison" who was being a pain in the neck a while ago. I agree with U.S. Orion. That's a pretty good way to start. I'd suggest a different way, but I don't feel like typing much right now.
Hey Jamo, you're U.S. Orion? Didn't know that.
Ok I am downloading your file. I will see what I can do. Then I will e-mail you what the problem is. If you still want the EV Devlopers Guide just tell me.
anything wrong yet, US Orion?
yeah that's me. Disco bison. Sorry if i was a pain. :frown: :redface: and orion, wat's your email address?
hello? does anyone know orion's email?
I think I know what your problem is. However I am assuming that you are using EV or EVO. What may have happened is you have too many weapons, this is almost impossible under EVN but easy to do under EVO. So what I would do try the things one at a time in the plug. Then if they work seperatly put them together using the IDs that the weapon(Ammo, primary, secondary and bay) outfits in EVO use.
Hope this helps.

I'm making an EVN plugin. I wouldn't be using nova tools if I were making an EV or EVO plug.
US Orion, have you found a problem, or have you found what i'm doing wrong?
Well, I looked at your plug and I tried a bunch of stuff before actually looking at your res ids. The problem was that you have your RAGE Gunboat Bay as wëap 445. After looking in the bible to be sure, I repaired you're plug. This is the problem.You cannot have more than 384 weapon types, and Nova will not let you use a weapon with a resource above 384. After resetting the Weap to 300, and the outfits modval to 300, the weapon worked fine.

Are you sure that you were looking at ResEdit id, and not the Index number? If Nova supports 384 weapon types, then shouldn't the Resedit ID be somewhere between 128 and 512, which the bay (445) is? I dunno, I haven't experimented much with high resource numbers.
Oops... I meant you can't have any wëaps id's above 384, and you can only have 256 different weapons. Thanks. BTW this is all using ResId's (cmnd - R in NovaTools Editor.)

disco, Disco Bison, whatever your name is, do the following 3 things:
Do not post the same question more than once in such a short period of time. Never expect immeadiate responses, even IF people are arround to see your question. This is not a chat room, this is a webboard. Things move much slower here.
Read the (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/webboard/guidelines.html")Webboard Guidelines(/url). Follow the rules or you will be banned.
Use much less smilies. If you really want to use them to show emotion, then click the box that says "Disable Smilies in This Post." directly below anything you type before you click on the button that says "Submit Reply", that way they show up as text, and not little pictures.
Also, please (url="http://"http://www.AmbrosiaSW.com/cgi-bin/ubb/Ultimate.cgi?action=agree")register(/url), so you can do things like edit your posts after you submit them, along with other abilities. Additionally, it will allow you to reserve your username so nobody else uses it. There is absolutely no reason not to register.
