I am currently working on a plugin (TC) and, to get right to the point, I need some contributers/co-producers. The plot is, basically, as follows:
**Several series of hit and fade attacks on Confederate worlds and trade routes have reduced the Confederation to a point that they can no longer defend themselves. A truce has been made, and the Human Alliance came into being. They know reign over almost the entire galaxy.
During all the excitement, no one noticed that the Pirates had been developing amazing new technologies that greatly exceeded those of the Alliance. Working quickly, the Alliance reinvented all of their hardware to combat the new menace.
But still the question remains: How did the Pirates get hold of this powerful new technology? **
That is the plot, give or take a few details. I have it all fleshed out fairly well, but I have a lot of work to do. I need a guy who can do graphics. I need, primarily, some new weapon pics and a lot of modified/new ship graphics.
I also need someone to help me with the missions. I'm not so great at those, and I would like to work on one main string while the other person works on the other one.
Contact me if you are willing to offer your services: ares1@cfl.rr.com
(note: I cannot offer any pay of any kind, other than a personality in the game and a planet or system with the name of your choice)

I'll do the missions. Contact me at plugs3@evula.net with more info.

Ok, I emailed you the details. Don't forget to mail me back.
I desperatly need someone to do graphics. Most of the stuff I want cannot be found in the shipyards.
I'm always here, ares, ready to do graphics...
As long as this isn't a huge graphic project, I'm up to it. My G3 should be up and running within a few days, so if you need anything ranging from outfit graphics to ship sprites, just let me know.

Are you sure? You seem to be very busy with EV-related projects. I decided to not call upon you because I thought you could use a break from it for a while. But if you really want to, email me.
(note: I hope to have a section dedicated to the plug up on my site later next week.)

Actually, I haven't been able to work on any EV-related projects for the past week, since my G3 has been down. My dad is going to work on it soon, and hopefully the hard drive will be in one piece. I haven't done any EV projects lately, so your requests will get me on a smooth start...
My e-mail is also currently unavailable, but that also should be functioning soon. Just bare with me here, and I'll try to contact you soon. Go ahead and e-mail me if you have any information. Just don't be surprised if you don't get a reply for a few days...
Alright, that's cool. I can wait. In fact, I have to wait; I'm not done with adding new systems, modifying the old ones, and a bunch of other stuff I need to do in order to start plugging in new missions and graphics.
When I am ready, I will contact you with the specifics if your G3 and email are up again. It will be within the next week or couple of weeks.
ares1, I'm having a little trouble getting my email account to work. Sorry I haven't replied yet...but I'll take the job, and I got your email.

Alright then, agreed.
Ok, cool. I should have the galaxy done by tonight. (its friday) Then we can begin with the missions. I'll get some of the outfit and ship specs down, too, so that they are ready when the graphics are prepared.
Does anyone have a suggestion for a better name for the alliance than the "Human Alliance"? That sounds, well, terrible.
(note: I now have all the systems complete. Beginning work on spobs. Spobs take me a while. Hope to be done by tomorrow.)
(edit) Is there an app that, like, adds together the flags for me? Instead of adding them myself, it would save time if an app could just put them all together in the hexidecimal form for me. I understand the system, but it takes me a while. ------------------ --ares "I'm going to live my life by the ideals that my hippy forefathers refused to go to war and fight for." -- Homer Simpson Check out my EV website: (url="http://"http://home.cfl.rr.com/aresev/")The Legion(/url).

How about:
Galactic Alliance
United Alliance
Alliance of Human Governments
Alliance of Human Worlds
Democratic Alliance
Alliance of Democratic Governments
Alliance of Democratic Worlds
Interstellar Alliance

"United Alliance" sounds pretty good to me...

And could you e-mail me a copy of the plug so far? Please?

I sort of like Galactic Alliance. It sounds more threatening and EV-Like, as opposed to all the other names that seem to represent peace and order. Like Democratic Alliance and stuff.
Skyblade, United and Alliance are almost synonymous. I think it sounds kind of weird..
Luke, that's too long. Having to type it out in mission and planet descs would be a royal pain.
I don't think you want to see my plug right now. I'm gonna paste a picture of the new galaxy, because that's about all I have done. I do have a government and a planet, and that's about it. I'm going to a game right now, but when I get back and take a shower I will work more on it.
Okay, I can't post the new map yet because EV Dev map won't let me get a wide enough view to show the whole map. I need time to plug it into EV, so I will do that when I get home.

AoDG= Alliance of Democratic Governments.
:frown: I'm gonna be very busy this weekend, and may not be able to do missions...
Well, I'll let you know how it turns out later.

Don't be sad or sorry, corey. I won't have the plugin ready for missions for quite a while. Still need to add a ton of planets and stuff.
Is there an app that will help make Spobs quickly? I can use resedit, and I understand it, but I have like 30 planets to make, and, well, it takes too friggin long. EV-Edit is too unstable, but I would like something like EV Dev map that could do planets a little quicker.

Doing it the long way is the best thing to do. Sure, it eats time, but a longer job usually means a more thorough job. EV Developer's Map has always done the job for me, as well as ResEdit. Don't mess with EV-Edit. Too buggy in just about every area...
