Ewan's Lair News and A Request

Well, its taken a long time, but Im finally getting round to reworking Ewan's Lair. I have uploaded el3 (the new interface) to the (url="http://"http://www.evula.org/ewan/")old site(/url). I had secured a new location at NorthernSwamp (due to the lamentable amount of space I get at EVula.org), but it has been down for ages now and I cant get hold of Jager! So until I can get something worked out (EVula?) the Strata download wont be available and many of the new planned features will not be implemented (texture depot, plug-in recycling yard, etc).

At the moment, there are no resources up (unfortunately), but there is a good reason for this - I dont have them anymore! I seem to have lost all the resources I had from Ewan's Lair over the past few months - geez am I embarrassed 😛

So, here is my plea - if you have ever downloaded any of the ships, models, or anything at all from Ewan's Lair and still have them kicking around, then please let me know! I might have some stuff backed up on a CD somewhere, and will be spending tonight looking through my cds for them, but to be honest I dont hold much hope... :frown:

Well, thats about it. I will be getting more of the pages complete tonight and tomorrow, and the site should be fully complete by next Friday (including some new content for EV and EVO developers). Let me know what you think of the new interface before its too late!

Could you perhaps put a list of the missing resources up on your site? I've got a lot of stuff I've grabbed off of a wide range of EV sites, and I don't always keep perfect track of what was from where.

The new interface looks nice, but it is a little bright for an EV-related site. Perhaps use the same design but on a black background?

Sure, I'll try and compile one tonight 🙂

Well, you see, the last 2 versions of the site were on a black background (red/grey on black then shades of orange on black). To be honest I just fancy a change. Also, I don't see why everyone uses black backgrounds just because EV is a space orientated game... it just seems all so drab...

I have your gunship, S-18, and the unknown shuttlepod-thing models. I'll see if I can't get them to you this evening.

It is better to feed the goat than it is today.

Excellent - thanks Cheat and UT!!!

If you could just send them to ecc2@st-andrews.ac.uk that would be fantastic 🙂

By searching my HDD for your name I found ewans_lights.sit and a Mac IE web archive file of your ship spin Strata 3D tutorial, including graphics. Do you want 'em, or did you only lose ship graphics files?

Hey, that tutorial was very useful when I made my first ship, by the way!

Erm... the IE web archive of the tutorial would be very useful, but dont bother about the light file. If I remember correctly it wasnt that good anyway 😛 Im currently writing a lighting tutorial for Strata to replace it anyway 🙂 Glad it helped you in some way though!

Site looks great. I like the white. Glad to hear you're getting things put together again. If you want I could host a few downloads for you until you got things straightened out with NorthernSwamp. Just e me if you're interested and we can figure something out.

We all suspect Jager has dropped dead behind his comp. 😉

Anyway the site looks quite good. 🙂

I had downloaded practically everything that is on your site in the past but I'm afraid that I don't have it anymore.

Good luck with the site (and with Jager :rolleyes: )

Entarus,
