Ship Editing Probs

I made a plug-in(EVN), and one of the things it does is toughen up the Dragon. After modifying all variations of the Dragon(not rebel), and the descs, I tried testing it. The Dragons remained the same. Can I get some help?

(Also, anyone with reasonable expierience willing to work on a plug with me, tell me.)

Do you have any other plug-ins installed? Is the plug-in inside a folder inside the plug-ins folder (it won't be recognized)? Did you miss a variant? (Now is when you want Res Edit/Nova Tools to have a search feature, right?) Otherwise, try doing something to make it blindingly obvious that they have been modified, like putting an IR missle launcher on them. If that dosen't , I'd wait and see if someone more experience can help you.

I don't see why the plug-ins in there would conflict; they have absolutely nothing to do with Dragons. I made it obvious that the ship has changed because the desc changed, and I put more weapons on.

Try sticking a debuglog.txt file into your Nova folder. It might catch something you didn't that Nova needs?

Don't just respond "me too". Copy and paste what the other person said and post it again!

I don't see any reason why that plug wouldn't work, but, obviously, it isn't working. That's wierd. I agree, post a debug log.

Here it is:

Take out everything

Weirdly enough, it doesn't show up.... oh well.
