Whenever the engine has to display any kind of graphics for the EVN add-on ship I've just made, it immediately crashes. This includes the main screen with the pilot description.

This is the first plug-in I've tried to make in a year at least. It uses shďp and spďn resource 442. The sprites are rlëD's (rlë8's included as well). I didn't know what to put for the mask ID in the spďn, since I thought rlëD's incorporated them. All the non-sprite pictures are the exact same picture, same size and all. I know that this is not the cause of the problem because it also crashes when there are no pictures present.

You need to create a shän, specifically shän 442. spïns do not contain enough information to describe a ship animation. See the Bible.

I know they're the same size, I was going to change it later. I just wanted to see if lack of a picture was the problem, and it wasn't. Anyways, I'm making the shän now. See, for some reason, I thought you could use either a spďn or a shän, so I went with the simpler one.
I haven't made any kind of plug-in at all in a long time, so please bear with me. I used to make a lot of 'em for the original EV, so I might use the wrong resources sometimes.
Will report success tomorrow.

When I first went into Nova, I started looking through the spins first, but then I learned that because of all of Nova's new engine features, the spin resource was just too simple, so they created the shan resource.

Yup, the shän fixed it.
goes off to corner to make plug-in
Okay, now I have a new problem. The weapon I just added makes the game crash on launch. (I also added a new s˙st and spöb, but those seem to work fine.)
Download link is the same.

Weapon spins are loaded from spins 3000 to 3255. The graphics field of the weap thus must be a value between 0 and 255.
By the way, it is traditional to use for the mask id when using RLED sprites (sprite ID)+1, and have the RLE's using only even numbers. I dont know if maskID is looked at for rle sprites. -Az

Well, I fixed the crash-on-launch problem, but now it's become a crash-on-fire problem. Download is, again, the same.
Also, it seems that NovaTools keeps changing the value in the field that defines the ammunition type. What gives?
